Enhancing roll stability and directional performance of articulated heavy vehicles based on anti-roll control and design optimization.
(2011-10-01)
This research presents an investigation to actively improve the rollover stability of articulated heavy vehicles (AHVs) during high speed manoeuvres using anti-roll control systems. A 3-dimensional (3-D) linear yaw/roll ...
Social-based trustworthy data forwarding in vehicular delay tolerant networks
(2011-03-01)
Vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) is an emerging new communication technol-ogy which has attracted a lot of research attention from academic community and indus-try. For many applications in VANETs, information has to be ...
Experimental investigation of hydrogen production from ammonia decomposition
(2011-08-01)
This thesis examines the production of hydrogen from ammonia in a continuous flow, packed bed membrane reactor. The experimental study examines the effects of operating temperature, pressure, and residence time on hydrogen ...
Design and development of multifunctional energy harvesting and storage systems for sensor applications
(2011-06-01)
This research focuses on the design and development of multifunctional components intended to provide three basic functions: (i) power generation, (ii) power storage, and (iii) structural support. They are made of composite ...
Automated inspection of sintered uranium fuel pellets
(2011-11-01)
A method of applying high-speed, non-destructive testing technologies to the inspection process of UO2 (uranium dioxide) fuel pellets is presented. The scanning process examines the surface of each pellet for correct ...
