  • An Information Modeling Framework for Support of Sustainable Manufacturing System Design Decision Making

    Creator:
    Shankar Raman, Arvind
    Abstract:
    Manufacturing technology has continuously evolved and advanced over the past century; this has led to an increase in the production of consumer and industrial goods driven by simultaneous growth in population and wealth. Despite the resulting economic and labor growth, environmental impacts of manufacturing have increased dramatically due to the...

  • Investigation of automatic construction of reactive controllers

    Creator:
    Westerberg, Caryl J.
    Abstract:
    In real-time control systems, the value of a control decision depends not only on the correctness of the decision but also on the time when that decision is available. Recent work in real-time decision making has used machine learning techniques to automatically construct reactive controllers, that is, controllers with little...

    Li, Xiaoyan
    Abstract:
    Structure Query Language (SQL) is widely used to access data stored in relational database systems. Although a powerful and flexible language, SQL can also be complex and hard to learn. For most new SQL users, it's easy to write SQL statement by following SQL grammar and syntax rules, but it's...

  • Sliding-mode control of the super maneuverable aircraft

    Creator:
    Koo, Chang Sul
    Abstract:
    In this thesis, A nonlinear methodology for the control of the highly maneuverable, high performance aircraft HARV (F-18) is studied by using sliding-mode control (SMC). This control law, which takes a continuous function when the input constraints are not considered, satisfies the reachability condition by which concerned states are driven...

  • Reaction Pathways of Oxo-Hydroxo Group 5 Clusters to Metal Oxide Thin Films

    Creator:
    Mansergh, Ryan H.
    Abstract:
    Oxo-hydroxo Group 5 metal clusters are an untapped resource to study and advance aqueous solution processing of metal oxide thin films. The tetramethylammonium (TMA) hexatantalate salt (TMA6[H2Ta6O19]) yields dense Ta2O5 films (~95% of the bulk ß-Ta2O5 density) with atomically smooth surfaces (<4 Å root mean square surface roughness). This same...

  • Automated decomposition of complex parts for manufacturing with advanced joining processes

    Creator:
    Massoni, Brandon R.
    Abstract:
    Recent advancements in joining operations and additive manufacturing now allow complex metal parts to be built up from raw materials, as opposed to being machined down from solid blocks. This not only opens up the design space, but also allows for much more efficient manufacturing. By decomposing a complex part...

  • Mechanical design under changing customer requirements case study : BugID

    Creator:
    Fagan, Chris R.
    Abstract:
    Customer requirements and engineering specifications will influence the direction of the design in any product, so it is crucial to make the requirements as stable as possible so quality designs can be produced on time within a budget. It would be optimal for requirements and specifications to remain constant but...

  • A study on student perceptions of principles of logic and their application to the principle of mathematical induction

    Creator:
    Boone, Allan R.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this article is to explore student reasoning with regard to problems in logic, particularly those related to the Principle of Mathematical Induction (PMI). The five case studies presented build off of work done by other researchers, most notably Dubinsky and Harel, who both looked at how students'...

  • General purpose, client configurable fuzzy logic expert control system

    Creator:
    Huntley, Kyle
    Abstract:
    In this paper we describe a fuzzy logic based control system implemented on a PC architecture. The rule based inference engine of this expert system is easily configured through an ascii text file and is demonstrated to be capable of controlling various simulations, including an inverted pendulum. The controller is...

    Creator:
    Hagan, Travis
    Abstract:
    Global Positioning Systems have allowed for precise timing of power system measurements over wide areas. This newly found capability has the potential to provide much greater insight into the operation of the power system and its response to contingencies, but few analytical techniques currently exist that provide enough robustness and...
