Forecasting the health of gas turbine components through an integrated performance-based approach
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this study, we present an integrated method for detecting and forecasting the health of gas turbine components as degraded over time. An advanced model-based real time performance adaptation approach is developed for ...
Mitigation of Traffic Congestion Using Ramp Metering on Doha Expressway
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Ramp metering is the most effective and widely implemented strategy for improving traffic flow on freeways by restricting the number of vehicles entering a freeway using ramp meters. A ramp meter is a traffic signal ...
Maximum Power Transfer Of Pv-fed Inverter-based Distributed Generation With Improved Voltage Regulation Using Flywheel Energy Storage Systems
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
One of the main issues accompanied with the high penetration of PV distributed generation (DG) systems in low voltage (LV) networks is the overvoltage challenge. The amount of injected power to the grid is directly related ...
Design of a Time-Frequency Algorithm for Automatic Eeg Artifact Removal
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The injuries suffered by newborns during birth are a major health issue. To improve the health outcomes of sick newborns using EEG measurements, a number of recent studies focused on the use of high-resolution Time-Frequency ...
Determining the Outdoor Air Ventilation with Carbon Dioxide (CO2) as a Tracer Gas
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Insufficient ventilation can lead to occupant complaints of discomfort and reduced productivity as human and building generated pollutants build up. Some combinations of these elevated pollutants may have short or long-term ...
Face segmentation in thumbnail images by data-adaptive convolutional segmentation networks
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this study we address the problem of face segmentation in thumbnail images. While there have been several approaches for face detection, none performs detection in such low resolution and segmentation with pixel accuracy. ...
Robust Controller and Fault Diagnoser Design for Linear Systems with Event-based Communication
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In order to improve the effectiveness and safety of control systems, the problem of integrated fault diagnosis and control (IFDC) design has attracted significant attention in the recent years, both in the research and in ...
Q-Learning Based Closed-Loop Control of Anesthesia Administration by Accounting for Hemodynamic Parameter Variations
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Critically ill patients in the intensive care units (ICUs) are often in acutely disturbed state of mind characterized by restlessness, illusions, and nervousness. Such patients, for instance, those who are mechanically ...
Secure Communications Using Directional Modulation
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Limitations on the wireless communication resources (i.e., time and frequency) introduces the need for another domain that can help communication systems to match the increasing demand on high data transfer rates and quality ...
Band allocation for cognitive radios with buffered primary and secondary users
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we study band allocation of Ms buffered secondary users (SUs) to Mp orthogonal primary licensed bands, where each primary band is assigned to one primary user (PU). Each SU is assigned to one of the available ...
