Bootstrap-Based Quality Metric for Scarce Sensing Systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper considers Mobile Crowd-Sensing (MCS) systems that suffer from scarce participant availability due to small sample sizes in each sensing cycle. With such small sample sizes, a sample in error would dramatically ...
A Real Case-Based Study Exploring Influence of Human Age and Gender on Drivers’ Behavior and Traffic Safety
(
Springer Verlag
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The demand for understanding the functional relationship between changes in traffic safety level and human-related factors has increased remarkably due to a steady increase in population and traffic volume. Motor vehicle ...
Towards sustainable society: Design of food waste recycling machine
(
IEOM Society
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Qatar is one of the top 10 countries in the world in terms of per capita food waste; which ranges from 584 to 657 kilograms per year. The combination of high food consumption rate and very low food waste recycle rate, ...
Sensor-less operation of hybrid boost modular multilevel converter for subsea multiphase medium voltage drives
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper introduces Hybrid Boost Modular Multilevel Converter (Hybrid Boost MMC) as a suitable candidate for subsea drive systems. The investigated drive system is based on a five-phase Induction Machine (IM) in order ...
Slip suppression in prosthetic hands using a reflective optical sensor and MPI controller
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Prosthetic hands have greatly evolved in mechatronic, robotic and control aspects. However, occasional accidents might happen due to excessive grip force or the breaking of contact due to slip. Fast transient slip events ...
Analysis and experimental verification of three-coil inductive resonant coupled wireless power transfer system
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, the basic principle of Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) based on resonance in magnetically coupled coils is described with detailed theoretical analysis of concepts. A novel approach of WPT is proposed using ...
Real-Time Communication Network Using Firebase Cloud IoT Platform for ECMO Simulation
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a high-complexity life-saving procedure where quick and coordinated interventions are required to avoid mortality. ECMO perfusionists and nurses must be well trained to respond ...
Selected harmonics elimination in multilevel inverter using improved numerical technique
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
For medium voltage high power application the modulation technique for power converters based on pre-computed Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) switching patterns can be very useful since the generated harmonic content can be ...
Investigation of three-phase capacitor-tapped multi-module voltage source converter with selective harmonic elimination
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
In conventional Two-Level Voltage Source Converters (2L-VSCs), connecting between high/medium dc voltage and medium/low ac voltage requires semiconductor devices rated at the high/medium dc-voltage, which negatively affects ...
Development of an active noise control earplug
(
International Institute of Acoustics and Vibration, IIAV
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Active Noise Control (ANC) is used in controlling low frequency noise where passive control is ineffective. This paper presents the main results obtained from the development of an active noise control earplug for use in ...
