Space vector PWM for a three-phase to six-phase direct AC/AC converter
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper a generalized multi-phase space vector theory is considered for developing the space vector modulation of a three-phase to six-phase AC to AC converter. The modulation is based on the control of the voltage ...

Comparison of SimTraffic and VISSIM Microscopic Traffic Simulation Tools in Modeling Roundabouts
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Abstract SimTraffic and VISSIM are two microscopic traffic simulation tools that are capable of modeling arterial roads with signalized intersections and roundabouts. This study compares the performance of the two simulation ...
Engaging Engineering Students in Active Learning and Critical Thinking through Class Debates
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Within the program of engineering, typically there are courses that are heavily dependent on mathematics and derivations of fundamental concepts. A lot of active learning can be done in these classes by using the engineering ...
Self-organized TiO2 nanotube layer on Ti–6Al–7Nb for biomedical application
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Article)
In the present study, a self-organized nanotube TiO2 layer on Ti–6Al–7Nb was fabricated. The influence of acidic electrolytes including glycerol (G) and ethylene glycol (EG) on the anodization, microstructural features and ...
Constitutive analysis for the quantification of hardness decay in a superlattice CrN/NbN hard-coating
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Article)
In the present study, a constitutive analysis of the evolution of the mechanical response of a CrN/NbN superlattice coating exposed to high temperature has been performed. Parametric approaches were used to obtain a single ...
Residual shear strength of fine-grained soils and soil-solid interfaces at low effective normal stresses
(
Canadian Science Publishing
, 2015 , Article)
A laboratory research program was undertaken to study the large-strain shear strength characteristics of fine-grained soils under low effective normal stresses ([1]3-7 kPa). Soils that cover a wide range of plasticity and ...
Estimating the elastic settlement of piled foundations on rock
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2015 , Article)
This research introduces a simple method for preliminary evaluation of the elastic settlement of piled foundations resting on rock. Despite a significant number of publications in this area, the present effort is distinguished ...
Performance evaluation of power demand scheduling scenarios in a smart grid environment
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
Smart grid technology is considered as the ultimate solution to challenges that emerge from the increasing power demands, the subsequent increase in pollution, and the outmoded power grid infrastructure. The successful ...
Performance analysis of M2M communication networks for QoS-differentiated smart grid applications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
We study the performance of Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications in Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) networks. The proposed analysis is applied to the random access procedure within LTE-A for the calculation of the ...
