An integrated wind-powered energy system for residential applications in cold regions
(2021-09-01)
This thesis proposed an integrated direct wind-powered energy system that can provide drinking water, domestic hot water, space heating as well as electricity for residential applications of a remote community in a cold ...
Fast algorithm for joint unicast and multicast beamforming in large-scale systems
(2021-09-01)
We consider a joint unicast and multi-group multicast beamforming problem for massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system with a large number of unicast users. We propose an alternating direction method of multipliers ...
Triton: a domain specific language for cyber-physical systems
(2021-04-01)
The design of cyber-physical systems is non-trivial and often filled with tedious, error-prone tasks that could be represented in a better way. Engineers often work with low-level languages such as C and C++, with real-time ...
Analytical and experimental study of the effect of cutting tool microgeometry on the impact resistance of milling tools
(2021-01-01)
This thesis conducted a two-part investigation into the ability of a milling tool cutting insert to resist the impacts that occur during the milling process, with respect to the cutting edge microgeometry. The first part ...
Comparison of the force and torque transfer for different cam profiles
(2021-09-01)
This study presents static load and torque distribution measurements in groove cams for sinusoidal and cycloidal cam profiles. In this thesis, two different designs and apparatuses were developed and built for the static ...
Effect of cutting tool microgeometry when milling hardened steels, a finite element simulation and surface integrity analysis
(2021-01-01)
This research work presents a 3D finite element model for the milling of hardened steels. The model was developed using ABAQUS/Explicit software and the Lagrangian approach was utilized. Experimental milling tests were ...
Modelling and real-time simulation of a modular bidirectional solid-state transformer for ultra-fast charging of electric vehicles
(2021-08-01)
This thesis proposes a modular Solid-State Transformer (SST) system architecture to be directly interfacing with a three-phase MV utility network enabling high-power and ultra-fast charging capabilities for electric vehicles, ...
Yield estimation and smart harvesting for precision agriculture using deep learning
(2021-08-01)
Precision agriculture is one of the fastest growing fields in recent years. In this thesis, we introduce a framework that provides farmers with a yield estimation from videos of crops and provides guided assistance for ...
Enhancing parallel coordinates and RadVis visualizations using single-and multi-objective optimization
(2021-04-01)
Data visualization is crucial to discover hidden patterns and relationships in high dimensional datasets; visualization is an essential branch in data analytics applied in science and engineering fields. This thesis has ...
An energy-efficient periodic resource model for cyber-physical systems By Suzanne Elashri
(2021-08-01)
Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), especially real-time systems, are subject to time constraints that should be met for the applications to run properly. The schedulability of workloads can be analyzed by determining the supply ...
