Control of High Gain Modified SEPIC Converter: A Constant Switching Frequency Modulation Sliding Mode Controlling Technique
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper investigates, analyses and presents a control scheme for a modified SEPIC converter. High voltage conversion ratio is accomplished by using fewer passive components. The modified SEPIC converter is a combination ...
Application of a property-based inherently safety quantification framework for integrating risk assessment into process safety life cycle
(
AIChE
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Process plant involves different types of risks which need to be managed appropriately to avoid dangerous incidents. Some risks are associated with design decisions such as choice of unit, chemicals or design layout etc. ...
Overview of the CLEF-2018 CheckThat! Lab on Automatic Identification and Verification of Political Claims. Task 2: Factuality
(
CEUR-WS
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
We present an overview of the CLEF-2018 CheckThat! Lab on Automatic Identification and Verification of Political Claims, with focus on Task 2: Factuality. The task asked to assess whether a given check-worthy claim made ...
Overview of the CLEF-2018 CheckThat! Lab on Automatic Identification and Verification of Political Claims. Task 1: Check-Worthiness
(
CEUR-WS
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
We present an overview of the CLEF-2018 CheckThat! Lab on Automatic Identification and Verification of Political Claims, with focus on Task 1: Check-Worthiness. The task asks to predict which claims in a political debate ...
Social robots and wearable sensors for mitigating meltdowns in autism - A pilot test
(
springer link
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Young individuals with ASD may exhibit challenging behaviors. Among these, self-injurious behavior (SIB) is the most devastating for a person’s physical health and inclusion within the community. SIB refers to a class of ...
Characterisation of air voids in w-fam samples using x-ray ct imaging
(
CRC Press/Balkema
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This study documents the use of high-resolution X-Ray Computed Tomography to characterise air void distribution in Fine Aggregate Mixtures (FAM) prepared using Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) additives (W-FAM). Specimens were imaged ...
Computational Aspects of Ideal (t, n)-Threshold Scheme of Chen, Laing, and Martin
(
Springer
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
In CANS 2016, Chen, Laing, and Martin proposed an ideal (t, n)-threshold secret sharing scheme (the CLM scheme) based on random linear code. However, in this paper we show that this scheme is essentially same as the one ...
Evaluation of traffic noise in the state of qatar
(
CRC Press/Balkema
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Mitigating traffic noise is a major concern for transportation departments worldwide. A number of noise mitigation procedures are recognized to control noise emitting from traffic stream. However, noise reduction potential ...
Telecommunication-wavelength lasing in er-doped gan multiple quantum wells at room temperature
(
OSA - The Optical Society
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
We report the realization of room-temperature, stimulated-emission in Er-doped-GaN multiple-quantum-wells at the 1.5-µm. Structures were grown by MOCVD and lasing was confirmed by threshold-behaviors of emission-intensity ...
Optimal Production Planning Strategy for Deteriorating Items in Terms of Emission Tax, Pollution, and R&D Investment
(
Springer Science and Business Media B.V.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Firms are faced with the question of what policies to implement to ensure efficient abatement behavior? In this paper, we aim to determine the optimal production rate and the optimal investment rate in pollution abatement ...
