Digitization and spectral analysis of Historical Manuscripts
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Digitization is an efficient means of preserving the rare historical records led to the development of a large number of digital libraries across the world. Choice of the suitable imaging equipment, storage format, and ...
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 ...
An efficient component map generation method for prediction of gas turbine performance
(
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Improving efficiency, reliability and availability of gas turbines have become more than ever one of the main areas of interest in gas turbine research. This is mainly due to the stringent environmental regulations that ...
Performance analysis of general order selection in decentralized cognitive radio networks
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we consider an underlay secondary network comprising of K transmitter-receiver pairs sharing the spectrum of a primary network, which is divided into n non-overlapping frequency bands (subchannels). Each ...
Multi-user diversity with optimal power allocation in spectrum sharing under average interference power constraint
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we investigate the performance of multi-user diversity (MUD) with optimal power allocation (OPA) in spectrum sharing (SS) under average interference power (AIP) constraint. In particular, OPA through average ...
Phase locked loop with fast tracking over wide stability range under grid faults
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
This paper introduces a PLL characterized by fast dynamics, wide stability range and minimal deviations. The proposed PLL is based on a frequency adaptive filtering stage to minimize the frequency and phase deviations under ...
Highly transparent low sheet resistance electrodes for solar cell applications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
High aspect ratio copper nanowires were synthesized, using a solution-based approach. The nanowires along with reduced graphene oxide thin films were sprayed onto glass and flexible substrates and later annealed in order ...
A finite context intrusion prediction model for cloud systems with a probabilistic suffix tree
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
The success of the cloud computing paradigm depends on how effectively the cloud infrastructures will be able to instantiate and dynamically maintain computing platforms that meet Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. ...
Embedding of nonlinear systems in a linear parameter-varying representation
(
IFAC Secretariat
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
This paper introduces a systematic approach to synthesize linear parameter-varying (LPV) representations of nonlinear (NL) systems which are originally defined by control affine state-space representations. The conversion ...
Solution combustion synthesis of active catalysts for hydrogen production from ethanol
(
AIChE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Solution combustion synthesis method was used to synthesize Cu and Ni based catalysts active for hydrogen production from ethanol decomposition reaction. The catalyst synthesis parameters (such as fuel to oxidizer ratio, ...
