Development of an Integrated Generator Power Take-of Strategy using Model Predictive Control (MPC) for Ocean Wave Energy Conversion

Creator:

Sundaram, Srinivasan Subhash

Abstract:

Model Predictive Control (MPC) has previously been investigated on ocean waveenergy converters (WEC) to improve the amount of power captured, while respectingthe system constraints. Previous research done in the same area, focused onbuilding a control scheme by using the knowledge of the past & current statesof the system and predicting...

Masters Thesis
Experimentation of Synchronous and Variable Speed Small Scale Hydropower Systems

Creator:

Jackson, Elliott C.

Abstract:

Hydropower is the one of the oldest renewable energy technologies and is wrongly thought of today as having little room to grow. The opportunity for new hydropower capacity is immense through both technology advancement and run-of-river new stream reach projects. Despite the age of hydropower, a divide in opinion is...

Masters Thesis
Next generation analog-to-digital conversion using time-based encoding and digital synthesis techniques

Creator:

Muhlestein, Jason, Russell

Abstract:

The internet-of-things is a growing market segment which is based on an arrayof portable communication devices with high power efficiency. Advanced semiconductortechnology can easily improve their digital performance, but the samecannot be said for the analog blocks which are vital to their operation. Highperformance analog circuits continue to use conventional...
