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. ...
Segregation similarity loss in morphological ranking of image search in histopathology
(2022-04-01)
Histopathology is the study of changes in tissue caused by diseases such as cancer. It plays an important role to diagnose the cancers. Regarding the large variation of many cancers types, and the large size of Whole Slide ...
Autonomous ground cover clearing utilizing a robotic wheel loader
(2022-04-01)
The ongoing need to remove ground covering such as sand, dirt and snow poses dangers to workers, from fatigue and repetitive work injures, to direct harm in hazardous locations. To address these challenges a robotic system ...
Design, performance, and economic evaluation of grid-connected renewable power generation system for Iqaluit community
(2022-08-01)
The high demand for clean and green energy is due to the rise in global temperature as the climate is affected using fossil fuel for energy generation in the arctic region. Nunavut is rich in renewable resources like wind ...
Design synthesis of NLMPC-based tracking controller for autonomous vehicles with active aerodynamic control
(2022-12-01)
The past three decades have witnessed extensive studies on tracking-control for autonomous vehicles (AVs). However, there is a lack of studies on effective design methods in this field. To tackle this problem, this thesis ...
Design and control of an active ankle-foot orthosis
(2022-04-01)
Active ankle-foot orthoses (AAFOs) assist a user unable to dorsiflex the ankle joint. The optimal AAFO is lightweight and aids the user in achieving a nominal gait.
This thesis presents the design and control of a novel ...
A supervised machine learning-based framework to detect low-level fault injections in software systems
(2022-08-01)
Fault injection attacks inject faults into system components, inducing abnormal software behavior. Software vulnerability analysis cannot prevent new attack vectors without software modifications. Attack detection methods ...
Microreactor for remote Canadian communities
(2022-11-01)
Remote Canadian communities rely on diesel generators for their electricity needs. Providing such generators with fuel year-round presents challenges because of inclement weather and long transportation distances involved. ...
Design and development of an autonomous flying excavator platform using a drone
(2022-09-01)
In this research, a drone-based excavation platform prototype is presented with the primary goals of balancing stability during excavation, sensing, and excavating the soil pile autonomously without human intervention. ...
