Autonomous Demand-Side Management in the Future Smart Grid
(2016-11)Group Autonomous Demand-Side Management (ADSM) programs provide practical mechanisms to coordinate energy consumption to achieve smart grid-wide objectives, such as reducing the energy cost, reducing the Peak-to-Average ... -
Autonomous Mobile Robots in Nature: Transfer RNAs in Escherichia coli Bacteria
(2008-05)Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are the smallest autonomous robots on earth. They can recognize a specific amino acid from the possible pool of 20 different amino acids. They are able to transport these protein building blocks to ... -
Autonomous Robot Navigation Based On Recurrent Neural Networks
(2012-05)The main objective of this research is to present a reactive navigation algorithm for wheeled mobile robots under non-holonomic constraints and in unknown environments. Two techniques are proposed: a geometrical based ... -
Autonomous Vehicles Delivery Systems: Analyzing Vehicle Routing Problems with a Moving Depot
(2019-04)The vast growth in the e-commerce market has increased the attention to resolving the problem of Last Mile Delivery that has significant challenges such as reducing operational cost or ecological impact and increasing ... -
Autonomous Waste-to-Energy Converter
(2014-07-22)4 trillion kilograms of waste are produced each year in eastern Europe and central Asia alone. The amount of waste produced is increasing exponentially. Waste is being dumped on residential grounds, in landfills and in the ... -
Autopilot Design and Commercial Autopilot Evaluation Using Flybarless Helicopter
(2014-03)In its effort to develop unmanned autonomous systems research capabilities, the College of Engineering is adding a rotary wing UAV to its research activities. The current thesis goal is to use the Maxi Joker 3 commercial ... -
B − L violating interactions in supersymmetric SO(10) models
(IOP Science, 2019)An analysis is given of B − L violating interactions in SO(10) arising from the integration of $10+\bar{10}$ of SU(5) of heavy Higgs. The analysis is done within the well defined missing partner model where the doublet-triplet ... -
Baal and Thoth: Unwelcome Apparitions in J. M. Coetzee’s The Master of Petersburg and Disgrace

Balun LNA Thermal Noise Analysis and Balancing With Common-Source Degeneration Resistor
(IEEE, 2020)The Balun low noise amplifier (LNA) is an LNA that exploits a combination of a common-source (CS) and a common-gate (CG) transistors, which cancels the noise and distortion of the CG stage. And since the CG is known to be ... -
Basin of Attraction through Invariant Curves and Dominant Functions
(Hindawi, 2015)We study a second-order difference equation of the form 𝑧ₙ₊₁= 𝑧ₙ𝐹(𝑧ₙ₋₁) + ℎ, where both 𝐹(𝑧) and 𝑧𝐹(𝑧) are decreasing. We consider a set of invariant curves at ℎ = 1 and use it to characterize the behaviour of ... -
Battery and Power Consumption of Pocket PCs
(Academy, 2012-01)Due to the increased functionality in today’s portable devices, battery life and energy consumption continue to be a major concern for both designers and users. Unfortunately battery technology is not keeping pace with ... -
Battery Energy Management Techniques for an Electric Vehicle Traction System
(IEEE Access, 2022)This paper presents two battery energy management (BEM) techniques for an electric vehicle (EV) traction system which incorporates an indirect field-oriented (IFO) induction motor (IM) drive system. The main objective of ... -
Battery Energy Management Techniques for Electric Vehicle Traction System
(2019-11)Dependency of the modern society on fossil fuels has created significant levels of environmental pollution. Therefore, the automotive industry is moving towards a cleaner transportation system in the form of battery electric ... -

Behavior of Concrete Filled Steel Tube (CFST) Under Different Loading Conditions
(2012-06)Concrete Filled Steel Tubes (CFSTs) were used in construction in the early 1900's. However, the research into CFSTs did not begin until the 1960s. From that time onwards, several studies were conducted on the CFSTs to fully ... -
Behavior of FRP-RC Columns Using BFRP Ties under Concentric Loading
(2019-12)Several studies have investigated the use of Fiber-Reinforced Polymers (FRP) rebars in reinforced concrete (RC) flexural members. However, not enough depth of understanding is currently available with regards to their use ... -
Behavior of RC Beams Strengthened with CFRP Laminates Under Fire - A Finite Element Simulation
(2011-03)For the last two decades, the use of Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRP) material has been successfully employed in many civil engineering applications. FRP strengthening systems are mainly used to retrofit existing and deficient ... -
Behavioral Modeling of GaN Doherty Power Amplifiers Using Memoryless Polar Domain Functions and Deep Neural Networks
(IEEE, 2020)In this paper, novel Doherty Power Amplifier (DPA) models are presented. The motivation behind the proposed models is to accurately predict static nonlinearities in the compression regions of the carrier and peaking ...
