( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2021 , Article)Machine learning has emerged as a promising paradigm for enabling connected, automated vehicles to autonomously cruise the streets and react to unexpected situations. Reacting to such situations requires accurate classification ... -
Active Noise Control in Workplaces
( Springer , 2016 , Article)Excessive workplace noise affects human health, safety, and comfort. Noise control in the workplace becomes necessary if the noise exceeds the level specified by noise regulations. This paper presents examples of active ... -
Active Power Filter
( John Wiley & Sons, Ltd , 2014 , Book chapter)The proliferation of power electronics-based devices and equipment has significantly affected the power quality of the grid, which changes its sinusoidal nature through adding harmonic distortion. Power electronics ... -
Active vibration control of flexible cantilever plates using piezoelectric materials and artificial neural networks
( Academic Press , 2016 , Article)The study presented in this paper introduces a new intelligent methodology to mitigate the vibration response of flexible cantilever plates. The use of the piezoelectric sensor/actuator pairs for active control of plates ... -
Active Vibration Isolation System (AVIS) using a Voice Coil Actuator to improve Free Space Optics Communication
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2019 , Conference Paper)In Free Space Optic communication (FSOC), transmitter and receiver's alignment is vital to maintain the line of sight during the whole communication period. This is critical in data transmission over a long-distance. ... -
Activity of Antibiotic Producing Bacteria Isolated from Rhizosphere Soil Region of Different Medicinal Plants
