Reliability estimation of load sharing capacity-c-out-of-n pairs:G Balanced system
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In many cases, systems are required to provide a specified capacity such as the case of power distribution system. A system fails when its capacity does not meet the required minimum capacity. In this paper, we investigate ...
Fault tolerant tactile sensor arrays for prosthesis
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The demand for sensor networks has grown significantly over the last decade. These networks operate as a single unit, accumulating information from individual sensor nodes. Due to a matrix-like topology of these arrays, a ...
Wireless active noise control results
(
International Institute of Acoustics and Vibrations
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Active Noise Control (ANC) is used in controlling low frequency noise where passive control is ineffective. Most (ANC) systems use physical cables to connect various parts of the system for operation. This can be bulky and ...
Towards enhanced control of upper prosthetic limbs: A force-myographic approach
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Reliable decoding of a user's intention is a key step to control prosthetic devices. Force myography (FMG) is often used to assess topographic force patterns resulting from volumetric changes of activated muscles. However, ...
Replacement policies for periodic damage models
(
International Society of Science and Applied Technologies
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
A new periodic damage model for preventive replacement policies is proposed in this paper, where the damage produced by shocks is only measured at periodic times, without considering the mathematical models of the stochastic ...
Mathematical model for thin-walled corrugated tube under axial compression
(
EDP Sciences
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this research, theoretical investigation of corrugated aluminum tubes is performed to predicting the energy absorption characteristics. Aim to deform plastic tubes in predetermined intervals, corrugations are introduced ...
In-depth Analysis of Pedestrian Safety in the State of Qatar
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Pedestrian safety is of a serious concern as it includes children and the aged population. From the Global status report on road safety in 2015 by World Health Organization (WHO), it can be seen that pedestrian fatalities ...
Combustion Characteristics and Emissions of a Direct-Injection Diesel Engine Fueled with GTL Fuel Blends
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Gas to Liquids (GTL) is one of clean alternative fuels which loosely defined terms that is generally used to describe the chemical conversion of natural gas to some type of liquid products. As such, it excludes the production ...
Vibration wave characteristics in Conventional and Periodic Drill string models
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Drill string models are of two major types- Conventional and Periodic. Conventional drill string models are widely used due to their simplicity in manufacturing and dynamics analysis. Drill strings are affected mainly by ...
