Development and analysis of new integrated energy systems for sustainable buildings.
(2014-12-01)
Excessive consumption of fossil fuels in the residential sector and their associated
negative environmental impacts bring a significant challenge to engineers within research
and industrial communities throughout the ...
A comparison of three computational phantoms for calibration of a radiation portal monitor used for measurement of internal contamination.
(2014-12-01)
The goal of this research was to investigate if portal monitors could measure internally deposited radioisotopes over a short count time (1 second) with a detection limit sufficient to measure 1/10 of an annual limit on ...
Comprehensive Investigation on Content-based Medical Image Retrieval using Radon Barcodes
(2019-12-01)
Content Based Medical Image Retrieval (CBMIR) systems are vital to the underlying operation of medical databases because they allow quick search and retrieval of medical images. Radon Barcode (RBC)s are binary complementary ...
Sum-rate maximization for two-way active channels.
(2014-11-01)
In this thesis, the term passive channel refers to the conventional parallel wireless
channel model, where there is no control over the gain of each individual subchannel.
We de ne an active channel as a parallel channel ...
Analysis and techniques for non-intrusive appliance load monitoring.
(2014-11-01)
The increased public awareness of energy conservation and the demand for smart metering system have created interests in home energy monitoring. Load disaggregation using a single sensing point is considered a cost-effective ...
Reliability evaluation of the two bus interface controllers in the Darlington simulator
(2010-01-01)
The Darlington simulator is now two decades old and, in common with any nuclear simulator of a similar age, suffers the problem of parts aging and obsolescence. In the past, replacement parts were available from the original ...
Data analysis in electric power system embedded with solar PVs
(2016)
Conventional source of energy are overly dependent on fossil fuel which tend to face several challenges such as the depleting of fossil fuel, environmental threat and human health. To deal with such challenges, solar PV ...
Energy and exergy analyses of multigenerational integrated systems with geothermal and solar energy sources
(2017-12-01)
The world population growth leads to a large demand of the different forms of energy. The challenges will be focusing on the discovery of new technologies that will satisfy to the demand and the production of energy that ...
Design and implementation of a component-based distributed system for text mining in social networks
(2016)
This report presents the design and implementation of a component-based distributed system for text mining in social networks. The system consists of three main types of components, data collection, data processing and ...
A study on regulation standard for SMRs
(2019-08-01)
The current thinking in the nuclear energy industry is favoring by small-scale Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) with improved safety and multiple applications compared to conventional large-size nuclear power plants. The ...
