  • Developing Design Model for Cellulose Nanocomposites

    Creator:
    Shir Mohammadi, Meisam
    Abstract:
    Today nano scale materials are being used for wide range of applications. One promising topic in nano scale materials is using them for reinforcement of different polymeric materials to reach desirable stiffness properties. The stiffness of these materials is mostly found experimentally because the nanocomposite community lacks a decent analytical...

  • Coverage algorithms for WiFO : a hybrid WiFi-FSO femtocell communication system

    Creator:
    Zhang, Yang
    Abstract:
    Coverage algorithms for deployment of WiFO - a hybrid femtocell architecture based on WiFi and Free Space Optical (FSO) technologies are studied to significantly increase wireless throughput of existing WiFi networks. In contrast with existing WiFi networks, WiFO incorporates small cell size, line of sight transmissions, and the Gaussian attenuation...

  • Modeling, control, and estimation of flexible, aerodynamic structures

    Creator:
    Ray, Cody W.
    Abstract:
    Engineers have long been inspired by nature's flyers. Such animals navigate complex environments gracefully and efficiently by using a variety of evolutionary adaptations for high-performance flight. Biologists have discovered a variety of sensory adaptations that provide flow state feedback and allow flying animals to feel their way through flight. A...
