Design and numerical study of the integration of omnidirectional shroud with vertical axis wind turbine
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
The integration of a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) with the novel omni-directional shroud is proposed. It consists of the upper wall, lower wall and an array of 5 guide-vanes. Wind from all directions is collected ...
The integration of social media in the delivery of unit materials: A comparative examination of the experience of Macquarie University and Qatar University
(
IEEE
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Social media is an important technological and cultural development with which the new generation of students are intimately familiar and use on a daily basis. As a communications tool social media has vast and varied ...
Hybrid underlay/overlay cognitive radio system with hierarchical modulation in the presence of channel estimation error
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we study the performance of hybrid cognitive radio (CR) system in the presence of channel estimation error (CER) in terms of bit-error-probability (BEP) and outage probability. We assume simultaneous switching ...
Open and closed-loop motor control system with incipient broken rotor bar fault detection using current signature
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Motor drive system is considered the most important asset in industrial applications. Detection of broken rotor bars has long been important but difficult job in detection area of incipient motor faults. The need for highly ...
Trading wireless information and power transfer: Relay selection to minimize the outage probability
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
This paper studies the outage probability minimization problem for a multiple relay network with energy harvesting constraints. The relays are hybrid nodes used for simultaneous wireless information and power transfer from ...
Release-time aware VM placement
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Consolidating virtual machines (VMs) on as few physical machines (PMs) as possible so as to turn into sleep as many PMs as possible can make significant energy savings in cloud centers. Although traditional online bin ...
An LCL filter-based grid-interfaced three-phase voltage source inverter: Performance evaluation and stability anaylsis
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Power converters in grid connection applications commonly employ Sinusoidal Pulse-Width Modulation (SPWM) technique. Passive filters are employed in order to attenuate the generated switching current ripples and reduces ...
Multi-Objective Security Hardening Optimisation for Dynamic Networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Hardening the dynamic networks is a very challenging task due to their complexity and dynamicity. Moreover, there may be multi-objectives to satisfy, while containing the solutions within the constraints (e.g., fixed budget, ...
Online risk assessment and prediction models for Autonomic Cloud Intrusion srevention systems
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
The extensive use of virtualization in implementing cloud infrastructure brings unrivaled security concerns for cloud tenants or customers and introduces an additional layer that itself must be completely configured and ...
Robust Hybrid EKF approach for state estimation in multi-scale nonlinear singularly perturbed systems
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper a general framework is developed for state estimation in a class of nonlinear continuous-time singularly perturbed systems. Our approach is based on the hybrid extended Kalman filter in which observations are ...
