Development of H∞ control strategy for a multi-wheeled combat vehicle
(2016-08-01)
A vehicle dynamics controller for an 8 x 8 heavy combat vehicle utilising both torque vectoring and third and fourth axle steering is propoed. The control scheme is composed of two controllers: a feedforward zero side slip ...
Vibration suppression of straight and curved beams traversed by moving loads
(2011-09-01)
Vibration suppression of beams traversed by moving loads, using optimal Tuned-Mass-Damper (TMD) systems, is investigated. This study is performed on two different geometrical shapes of the beam, namely, uniform homogenous ...
Modeling of voltage source converter based HVDC transmission system in EMTP-RV
(2010-08-01)
Voltage Source Converter (VSC) applications include but are not limited to HVDC, Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) devices such as STATCOM, SSSC, UPFC and Wind generators and active filters. The VSC based HVDC system ...
Design and implementation process for controls integration using CAN bus on a full function electric vehicle conversion
(2014-03-01)
From the electrical engineering perspective, this thesis addresses the design and
implementation of the conversion process from a hybrid electric to a full function electric
vehicle (FFEV). The architecture selection process ...
User-centric analytics for expert crowds
(2015-09-01)
Pervasiveness and permissiveness of social media made content verification an integral part of any analysis involving online generated data. The most natural and convenient way to assess content trustworthiness and validity ...
Development of novel energy systems for LNG locomotives
(2015-04-01)
The use of diesel in the railway sector brings challenges to the engineers to meet the current emissions standards set by governments. This thesis addresses potential solutions to overcome the emissions problems in the ...
Design and development of a robotic crawler for CANDU fuel channel inspection
(2015-08-01)
For the design of a new robotic crawler drive unit for CANDU fuel channel inspection, a complete design and screening process was done in order to fulfil the objective of this research. A brief explanation of CANDU reactors ...
Experimental and numerical investigation of the dynamic seat comfort in aircrafts.
(2013-12-01)
This research focuses on the dynamic seat comfort in aircrafts specifically during takeoff, landing and cruise through turbulence flight conditions. The experiments are performed using a multi axis shaker table in the ...
Jointly optimal pre- and post-channel equalization and distributed beamforming in asynchronous bi-directional relay networks
(2015-09-01)
We consider an asynchronous two-way relay network, consisting of two transceivers and multiple relays, where due to the propagation delays of different transceiver-relay paths being different, inter-symbol- interference ...
Power allocation in energy harvesting two-way relay systems
(2015-04-01)
In this thesis, we consider two-way relaying in a wireless communication system with two transceivers and one relay node. In such a model, two scenarios are taken into account: a system with one energy harvesting (EH) relay ...
