Dynamic fuzzy reliability and safety assessment of passive safety systems in small modular reactors
(2023-04-01)
Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) have garnered significant interest in recent years, and they may play an essential role in the future of energy supply and power generation. One major advantage associated with SMRs is their ...
Decommissioning considerations for molten salt type reactors
(2023-05-01)
Molten salt type small modular reactors are presently being developed as an option for providing electricity and alternative energy forms. The current proposed designs do not document how decommissioning will be addressed. ...
Detector positioning in a field-deployable limited-angle gamma ray emission tomography system
(2023-08-01)
Imaging techniques have been part of the medical and industrial fields for more than a century due to their simple use in the inspection of internal parameters without sample damage. These methods take advantage of the ...
Effects of the geometric modifications on the shear layer excitation source in co-axial side branches
(2023-08-01)
This comprehensive study delves into the interaction between shear layer oscillations and the acoustic field within co-axial cavities, spotlighting the efficacy of the sound source model as a reliable semi-empirical modeling ...
Intention prediction of pedestrians in challenging weather conditions using deep learning
(2023-08-01)
Assisted and automated driving vehicles have received massive attention over the past few years from the research community to make our roads safer. In this thesis, we introduce a framework for predicting the intention of ...
The aeroacoustics response and shear layer dynamics of confined cavities subject to low Mach number turbulent flow
(2023-04-01)
Cavities exposed to low Mach number flow in various engineering applications are often liable for generating flow-excited acoustic oscillations, resulting in large acoustic amplitudes and vibrations. This compromises the ...
Design and evaluation of GAN-based models for adversarial training robustness in deep learning
(2023-04-01)
Adversarial attacks show one of the generalization issues of current deep learning models on special distribution shifted data. The adversarial samples generated by the attack algorithm can introduce malicious behavior to ...
Effect of self-excited acoustic perturbations on flow characteristics around rectangular cylinders with varied geometrical aspects
(2023-08-01)
This study explores the effects of aspect ratio, edge geometry and incidence angles on the dynamic lift force, wake behaviors, and the susceptibility of such geometrical aspects to self-excited acoustic resonance in ...
Test case prioritization using transfer learning in continuous integration environments
(2023-04-01)
Continuous integration (CI) systems use automated tests to verify software builds and optimize the testing process through test case prioritization (TCP). Recent research studies on TCP in CI environments have employed ...
Machining of additively manufactured titanium Ti-6Al-4V; cutting forces and chip morphology
(2023-04-01)
This thesis studies the machining of additively manufactured (AM) titanium Ti-6Al-4V and presents a model to determine Johnson Cook (J-C) constitutive parameters from complex machining processes through numerical modeling ...
