Zirconium Phosphate/Ionic Liquid Proton Conductors for High Temperature Fuel Cell Applications
(2017-11)
High temperature operation (> 120 °C) is preferred in proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells. It enhances the electrode kinetics, improves the catalyst tolerance for impurities and allows the use of lower cost fuels ...
Adaptive Video Streaming Over Cognitive Radio Networks
(2017-01)
Several challenges face reliable video streaming over wireless networks due to the stringent requirements of high data rate, low error rate, and limited end-to-end delay. Cognitive radio (CR) networks offer a great advantage ...
Cortical EEG Source Localization of Focal Epilepsy
(2017-11)
Brain source localization allows us to localize different brain regions that are activated during neural activity. Several imaging modalities can be used for recording neural activity and are essential in clinical applications. ...
Solving Fourth Order Differential Non-Linear Equations, Existence and Uniqueness
(2017-05)
The aim of this thesis is to present a novel numerical approach for the solution of a class of non-linear fourth-order boundary value problems. The method is based on embedding Green's function into some fixed point iteration ...
Dynamic Spectrum Scheduling and Management in Centralized Cognitive Radio Networks
(2017-11)
As the demand for wireless radio spectrum increases, spectrum regulatory authorities expect to face a spectrum scarcity problem.As the demand for wireless radio spectrum increases, spectrum regulatory authorities expect ...
Parallel Implementations for Eliminating Finite State Machine Mutants
(2017-05)
In this thesis, the mutants’ elimination problem considered in finite state machine (FSM) based mutation testing, fault diagnosis, and in the assessment of the effectiveness of test suites is targeted. Given a test suite ...
The Translation of Euphemism in Political Discourse
(2017-05)
Euphemism is a word or a stretch of words by which the writer/speaker intends to generate an expression or utterance that if said bluntly would make the receiver feel unpleasant and embarrassed. The purpose of this thesis ...
Bond Stress-Slip Models and Behavior of Aluminum Alloys-Concrete Interface
(2017-01)
In the last few decades, different techniques have been used for strengthening reinforced concrete (RC) structures to increase their strength and stiffness. One of these techniques involves the use of steel and fiber ...
Optimal Routing and Scheduling in E-commerce Logistics using Crowdsourcing Strategies
