  • Design and Simulation of Nonlinear Control Strategies for Heaving Point Wave Energy Converters in WEC-Sim

    Creator:
    Glennon, David N.
    Abstract:
    As the sources of our electricity shift from centralized and carbon emitting, to a portfolio of distributed, clean-energy sources, the wave energy converter (WEC) has become a topic of exploration and development for providing coastal communities electric power. Part of this trend has included an effort to create open source...

  • Analysis and modeling of coplanar on-chip interconnects on silicon substrates

    Creator:
    Luoh, Yi
    Abstract:
    The electrical behavior of on-chip interconnects has become a dominant factor in silicon-based high speed, RF, and mixed-signal integrated circuits. In particular, the frequency-dependent loss mechanisms in heavily-doped silicon substrates can have a large influence on the transmission characteristics of on-chip interconnects. To optimize the performance of the integrated circuit,...

  • A Micro Scale Magnetic Particle Imaging System

    Creator:
    Lenox, Philip A.
    Abstract:
    Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is a biomedical imaging technique which detects the presence of magnetic nanoparticles which have been introduced into the specimen prior to imaging. MPI has shown promise for real-time imaging with spatial resolution comparable to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MPI research has focused predominantly on the development...

  • Machine Learning for Architectural Design Space Exploration and Resource Control

    Creator:
    Penney, Drew D.
    Abstract:
    Machine learning has enabled significant advancements in diverse fields, yet, with a few exceptions, has had limited impact on computer architecture. Recent work, however, has begun to explore broader application to design, optimization, and simulation. Notably, machine-learning-based strategies often surpass prior state-of-the-art analytical, heuristic, and human-expert approaches. This thesis first...

  • MOSFET-only predictive track and hold circuit

    Creator:
    Qiu, Xiangping
    Abstract:
    High-accuracy and high-speed CMOS track-and-hold (T/H) or sample-and-hold (S/H) circuits are an important part of the analog-to-digital interface. The switched-capacitor (SC) circuits usually contain one or more op-amps whose dc offset, finite gain, finite bandwidth have a big impact on the accuracy of the track-and-hold circuit. Basic correlated double sampling...

  • Predictive methodologies for substrate parasitic extraction and modeling in heavily doped CMOS substrates

    Creator:
    Sharma, Ajit
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents an automated methodology to calibrate the substrate profile for accurate prediction of substrate parasitics using Green's function based extractors. The technique requires fabrication of only a few test structures and results in an accurate three layered approximation of a heavily doped epitaxial silicon substrate. The obtained substrate...
