Data Mining a Design Repository for Automating and Validating Functional Modeling

Creator:: Mikes, Alex B.
Abstract:: The purpose of this work is to build a foundation of understanding and methodologies as the steps toward automating functional modeling. We have achieved significant progress in the automatic generation of functional representations, which can be connected at the interface of components to create a functional model. This work highlights...

Machine Learning Applied to Non-periodic Event Detection – A Special Case in Structural Health Monitoring

Creator:: Hu, Congcong
Abstract:: Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is known as the process of implementation of damage detection and characterization strategy. The method is widely used in modern critical equipment to minimize the risk of failures. While a significant effort has been devoted by researchers for the detection of faults in situations including periodic...

Exploring IMU Attitude and Position Estimation for Improved Location in Indoor Environments

Creator:: Zhang, Shengkai
Abstract:: Wearable sensors with an inertial measurement unit (IMU) are popular for indoor positioning and activity pattern detection. The IMUs can be connected to a wireless transmission module, allowing users to monitor and process motion-related parameters remotely. Because of the complexity and uncertainty of signals in indoor environments, a radio frequency...

Synthesis, surface treatment, and characterization of copper indium sulfide quantum dots

Creator:: Alemu, Yagenetfere A.
Abstract:: The need for less toxic quantum dots (QDs) has led to a significant number of investigations related to copper indium sulfide (CIS) QDs. Lower toxicity and broad band absorbance width makes CIS QDs appealing for light emitting diodes (LEDs), lasers, sensors, bio-imaging, solar cells, and computing. The optical and electronic...

Oxygenate Reactions over PdCu and PdAg Catalysts: Influence of Electronic and Geometric Effects

Creator:: Bathena, Tanmayi
Abstract:: Bimetallic catalysis is a promising way to tune the catalytic properties of heterogeneous catalysts. In particular, bimetallic catalysts are extensively used to enhance the selectivity of monometallic catalysts in a variety of contexts, from oxidation catalysis to oxygenate coupling. In this work, we investigate PdxCuy/SiO2 and PdxAgy/SiO2 catalysts in the...

The MAV_4644 dual-function channel protein with putative ADP-ribosyltransferase activity of Mycobacterium avium is required for virulence within host macrophages

Creator:: Lewis, Matthew S.
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium subspecies hominissuis (MAH) is an opportunistic pathogen that is ubiquitous in the environment and often isolated from faucets and showerheads. MAH mostly infects humans with an underlying disease, such as chronic pulmonary disorder (COPD), cystic fibrosis (CF), or are immunocompromised, though infections in patients without concurrent disease are...

Quantum dot plasmon coupling : Fundamental study and applications

Creator:: Kannegulla, Akash
Abstract:: The dissertation focuses on the engineering of light-matter interaction using plasmonic nanoparticles and metamaterials to achieve enhanced luminescence and based on which to improve the performance of biosensing and light-emitting technologies. We designed and fabricated a spectrum of nanostructures to exhibit particular dispersion relations capable of controlling the spontaneous emission...

Compressive Sensing for Low Power Sensor Design

Creator:: Behravan, Vahid
Abstract:: Recent sensor System-on-Chips (SoC) have enabled significant advances in energy-efficiency by incorporating various micro-powered building blocks. Unfortunately, most of these sensor systems do not address the high power cost associated with data storage and transmission, which in some cases vastly exceeds the power consumed by the rest of the SoC....

Robotic Actuation and Control with Programmable, Field-Activated Material Systems

Creator:: Bira, Nicholas P.
Abstract:: This dissertation presents novel, field-activated smart material systems for the actuation and control of autonomous robots. Smart materials, a type of material whose properties can be changed with an external stimuli, represent a promising direction to expand upon existing robotic control and actuation methods, particularly in the sub-fields of soft...

Co-channel Blocker and Self-Interferer Tolerant Receiver Architectures for MIMO and Full-Duplex MIMO Receivers

Creator:: Jain, Sanket
Abstract:: This research focuses on receiver architectures which enable better spectral eciency by handling blockers in the same spectral range as the signal. The presence of such blockers, without the use of blocker cancelling/ltering techniques leads to gain compression and hence, consequent performance degradation of receivers leading to reduced spectrum...
