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, ...
Development of a model to investigate the sustainability of Ontario’s future electricity supply through a dual life cycle lens
(2021-10-01)
Since the turn of the century, greenhouse gas emissions and their climate related impacts have been studied with increased vigor. A tool that has gained popularity in supporting the reduction of emissions is life cycle ...
Application-specific transfer learning over edge networks
(2021-11-01)
Transfer learning uses a profound labeled set of data from the source domain to deal with a similar problem for the target domain. Transfer learning provides accurate decision- making when insufficient data samples are ...
Design and development of a blockchain-based consent management system
(2021-08-01)
Data management is defined as obtaining, processing, safeguarding, and storing information about an organization to aid in making better business decisions for the firm. With the proliferation of smart devices, the amount ...
Enhancement of lateral stability for a multi-wheeled combat vehicle using various control strategies
(2021-08-01)
This thesis investigates various active chassis control strategies for multi-wheeled combat vehicle to enhance its lateral stability at limit handling. The proposed control strategies are Active All- Wheel Steering (AWS), ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Robotic and haptic assistance for kidney access during percutaneous nephrolithotomy
(2021-08-01)
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is a minimally invasive procedure for removing kidney stones. Gaining kidney access is the most challenging task in this procedure and the cause of many complications. This thesis presents ...
Early detection of cyber-physical attacks in electric vehicles fast charging stations using machine learning
(2021-08-01)
In smart grids, the concept of “vehicle-to-grid” allows the electric vehicles to export power to the grid to support the electric utilities in the power distribution system’s operation. The implementation of such a concept ...
