Front underride protection devices: design methodology for heavy vehicle crashworthiness
(2016-04-01)
North American Heavy Vehicles contribute to a third of all road fatalities in Canada. Head on collisions are one of the most severe, as the mismatch of vehicle weight and sizing intensifies when a passenger vehicle is ...
Development and analysis of alternative thermochemical cycles for hydrogen production
(2021-12-01)
Production of carbon-free fuels as alternatives for fossil fuels is a promising approach for controlling climate change and global warming. Hydrogen is considered as the key energy carrier of the future when it is produced ...
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 ...
A robust and efficient autonomous exploration methodology of unknown environments for multi-robot systems
(2022-05-01)
Multi-robot systems can provide effective solutions for exploring and inspecting environments where it is unpractical or unsafe for humans, however, adequate coordination of the multi-robot system is a challenging initiative. ...
Discrete optimization of upgrade scheduling
(2022-08-01)
A primary objective of the mission to meet climate change goals of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is to transition from fossil fuels to zero-emission energy. Fossil fuel production and transportation account for ...
Modeling and analysis of metal cutting process using self-propelled rotary tools
(2021-02-01)
Machining difficult-to-cut materials is still one of the challenges facing different industries such as aerospace, nuclear and automotive sectors. That’s mainly because of the excessive heat generated, which affects the ...
Optimizing relational search with embedded neural network
(2023-04-01)
Our research focuses on a novel method to query relational data. We propose the partial tuple search problem where a user can utilize keyword search to explore complex relational datasets. The challenge of evaluation of ...
