  • Time domain simulation of Maxwell's equations by the method of characteristics

    Creator:
    Orhanovic, Neven
    Abstract:
    A numerical method based on the the method of characteristics for hyperbolic systems of partial differential equations in four independent variables is developed and used for solving time domain Maxwell's equations. The method uses the characteristic hypersurfaces and the characteristic conditions to derive a set of independent equations relating the...

  • Novel design and implementation of a permanent magnet linear tubular generator for ocean wave energy conversion

    Creator:
    Prudell, Joseph H.
    Abstract:
    The world’s energy consumption is growing at an alarming rate and the need for renewable energy is apparent now more than ever. Estimates have shown that optimization of the extraction of energy from the ocean could significantly aid the world’s quest for sustainable and affordable energy services for all. From...

  • Hybrid computer simulation of wind-driven ocean currents

    Creator:
    Vithayathil, Francis Joseph
    Abstract:
    A simulation method using a hybrid computer is developed in this dissertation to enhance the study of wind-driven ocean circulation. The simulation is based on the mathematical model developed by Ekman. Pure digital simulation is not economical due to excessive computer time required for the solution of the partial differential...

  • Performance of MC-CDMA with pilot code and blind equalization algorithm

    Creator:
    Lesmana, Joseph Sam
    Abstract:
    Various methods and techniques have been introduced and applied to advance the state of the art of mobile wireless communications technology. For example, some techniques are applied to overcome the problem of multipath caused by the mobile environment. Multipath produces replicas of the wanted signal which arrive at the receiver...

  • Analysis of planar multi-conductor multilayered structures by network analog method

    Creator:
    McVeety, Joseph J.
    Abstract:
    In this thesis the network analog method is used to analyze various planar multi-conductor structures in multilayered, lossy dielectric media. The method is based on an efficient impedance network representation of the finite difference approximation of Laplace's equation for the electric potential. Using the network analog method, the transmission line...

  • Methods to improve the reliability and resiliency of near/sub-threshold digital circuits

    Creator:
    Crop, Joseph A.
    Abstract:
    Energy consumption is one of the primary bottlenecks to both large and small scale modern compute platforms. Reducing the operating voltage of digital circuits to voltages where the supply voltage is near or below the threshold of the transistors has recently gained attention as a method to reduce the energy...

  • Influence of adjustable speed drive on induction motor fault detection using stator current monitoring.

    Creator:
    Al-Shahrani, Ali
    Abstract:
    The detection of motor faults at their incipient stage is of prime importance to any industrial plant. The introduction of adjustable speed drives has improved the control and the efficiency of induction motors, however, this has changed the nature of motor faults and how they can be detected. Current signature...

  • Deep ultraviolet solid-state laser development

    Creator:
    Dutton, David A. (David Adam)
    Abstract:
    There is a new possibility of generating deep ultraviolet laser radiation from a solid-state source. With recent advances in material development, a new nonlinear optical crystal provides a greater damage threshold than current materials making higher conversion efficiencies possible. This thesis examines the possibility of using this crystal to generate...

  • A graphic user interface for monophonic music analysis

    Creator:
    Matos G., Soraya J.
    Abstract:
    A Graphic User Interface is developed to determine the existence of a particular sequence of piano notes within a monophonic sound waveform. Such waveforms are recorded within the Graphic User Interface and then passed to the monophonic analysis engine. The first phase of analysis segments the PCM sound data to...
