Multiattribute Utility Theory Deployment in Sewer Defects Assessment
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2018 , Article)
Assessing the condition of sewer pipelines is a backbone process to plan for rehabilitation and maintenance work. The closed circuit-television (CCTV) method is the widely adopted method to record the inner condition of ...
ANN Model for Energy Demand and Supply Forecasting in a Hybrid Energy Supply System
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents short term demand and supply forecasting model for a microgrid supply system used to secure the electricity demands of a commercial building, using one year demand data collected in hourly base. One-year ...
Event-triggered fault detection for discrete-time LPV systems with application to a laboratory tank system
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
This paper investigates a new event-triggered fault detection methodology for discrete-time dynamic systems characterized by linear parameter-varying models. An event-based linear parameter-varying observer is presented ...
A combined method to model dynamic recrystallization based on cellular automaton and a phenomenological (CAP) approach
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
Titanium alloys with high stacking-fault energy show continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) instead of discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX) during high-temperature deformation. During the CDRX mechanism, new ...

Since the mid of the 1990s, Qatar is engaged in an economic diversification strategy to move away from an economy strongly based on gas and oil. The national authorities consider that high-quality education, especially at ...
Fundamental output voltage enhancement of half-bridge voltage source inverter with low DC-link capacitance
(
Korean Institute of Power Electronics
, 2018 , Article)
Conventionally, in order to reduce the ac components of the dc-link capacitors of the two-level Half-Bridge Voltage Source Inverter (HB-VSI), high dc-link capacitances are required. This necessitates the employment of ...
