Investigation and assessment of the integrated copper chlorine cycle for hydrogen production with a new separation process
(2021-08-01)
The production of hydrogen as a clean fuel is anticipated to have a major impact on the development of the environmentally benign generation of energy. At present, a significant portion of hydrogen generation is based on ...
Integrated chassis control strategies for multi-wheel combat vehicle
(2021-11-01)
Combat vehicles are exposed to high risks due to their high ground clearance and nature of operation in harsh environments. This requires robust stability controllers to cope with the rapid change and uncertainty of driving ...
Power efficient designs for 5G wireless networks
(2021-01-01)
In this dissertation, to step forward towards green communication, we study power efficient solutions in three potential 5G wireless networks, namely an asynchronous multicarrier two-way Amplify-and-Forward (AF) relay ...
Additive manufactured biodegradable and biocompatible polymeric nanocomposite scaffolds for bone tissue engineering applications
(2021-08-01)
In this thesis, the focus is on using the fused deposition modeling (FDM) method to manufacture functional biodegradable nanocomposite Polymeric Bone Tissue Scaffolds (PBTS). PBTSs are complex products, which have attracted ...
Developing a mobile manipulation system to handle unknown and unstructured objects
(2021-04-01)
The exceptional human’s ability to interact with unknown objects based on minimal prior experience is a permanent inspiration to the field of robotic manipulation. The recent revolution in industrial and service robots ...
Development of integrated performance indicators and integrated energy systems for smart cities
(2021-04-01)
The urge to develop and innovate net zero energy systems for smart city applications has never been more pressing. As the world population is rapidly growing, the global energy demand expands exponentially. The setback ...
Development and modeling of novel battery thermal management systems for electric and hybrid electric vehicles
(2019-04-01)
Thermal management system is necessary to control the operating temperature of the lithium ion batteries in battery packs for electrical and hybrid electrical vehicles. This thesis studies, develops and models novel battery ...
Experimental investigation of an integrated solar driven wastewater treatment system for trigeneration applications
(2018-08-01)
Hydrogen is a promising alternative as an energy carrier (and carbon-free fuel) to meet the global power demand. Hydrogen production systems can efficiently harvest energy from renewable sources. Even though photo-electrochemical ...
Development and assessment of renewable ammonia and methanol production systems
(2020-04-01)
In this thesis, four renewable energy-based integrated systems for sustainable communities are developed. System 1 consists of a single-stage OTEC plant integrated with an ammonia production and district cooling system. ...
Coded caching for cache-aided communication and computing with nonuniform demands
(2021-10-01)
In this dissertation, we consider the caching system of multiple cache-enabled users with nonuniform demands. We thoroughly characterize the structure of the optimal cache placement of the coded caching scheme (CCS).We ...
