  • Investigating Time-Digital-Converters for Hardware Security in FPGAs

    Creator:
    Lytikov, Daniil
    Abstract:
    In this comprehensive thesis, we present a series of experiments and findings that highlight the critical importance of TDC Voltage Sensors in the hardware security domain. Our research begins by introducing a novel self-calibrating module, demonstrating its efficiency through preliminary calibration tests. We then delve into the Peak-to-Peak tests, which...

  • Determination of magnetoelastic parameters in magnetic thin films from FMR spectra

    Creator:
    Masood, Khalid I.
    Abstract:
    The ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) phenomenon serves as a sensitive probe of the effective internal fields in a magnetic material. FMR spectroscopy has consequently become a well-established technique, extensively employed in assessing material properties such as magnetic anisotropy, Landé g-factor, damping parameter, and the magnetoelastic constants of magnetic materials. Determining these...

  • Modeling of Wave Energy Converter via Instantaneous Frequency

    Creator:
    Kim, Inyong
    Abstract:
    A multidisciplinary perspective is necessitated for the analysis of wave energy conversion systems, spanning hydrodynamics, mechanics, electric power, and control systems. The complexity inherent in these scientific domains poses challenges for unified analysis. This paper addresses these challenges by connecting various domains through the application of circuit theory, characterizing the...

  • Highly-Integrated Low-Power RF Receivers for Distributed Sensing and IoT Devices

    Creator:
    Bialek, Hayden
    Abstract:
    Low-power receivers (RX) with 100$\mu W$-scale power consumption can enable several power/energy-constrained IoT applications. However, achieving sensitivity, interferer tolerance and wide operating range with low power presents a challenge for existing architectures, particularly those constrained to highly integrated solutions without high-Q off-chip components. Existing solutions rely heavily on high quality...

  • Point-of-care and wearable sensors for non-invasive stress hormone detection with molecularly imprinted techniques

    Creator:
    Yeasmin, Sanjida
    Abstract:
    Rapid and sensitive detection of stress hormones, such as cortisol and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), can benefit the diagnosis of diseases related to adrenal gland disorders, post-traumatic stress disorders, chronic fatigue syndrome, and more. Stress hormones fluctuate in a circadian rhythm, the highest in the early morning and the lowest at night;...

  • On the domain generalizability of RF fingerprints through multifractal dimension representation

    Creator:
    Johnson, Benjamin
    Abstract:
    RF data-driven device fingerprinting through the use of deep learning has recently surfaced as a possible method for secure device identification and authentication. Traditional approaches are commonly susceptible to the domain adaptation problem where a model trained on data from one domain performs badly when tested on data from a...

  • Plasma-Jet Printing and In Situ Sintering of Electronic Materials for Flexible Hybrid Electronic Applications

    Creator:
    Manzi, Jacob
    Abstract:
    Additive manufacturing has become a promising method for the fabrication of inexpensive, green, flexible sensors and electronics. Printed electronics on low- temperature substrates are very appealing for the flexible hybrid electronics market for their use in disposable and biocompatible electronic applications and in areas like packaging, wearables, and consumer electronics....

  • Learning algorithms for adapting the compliance of robotic limbs

    Creator:
    Aboufazeli, Mahtab
    Abstract:
    Motivation: Many robots such as legged robots and prosthetic hands/arms are designed to interact with uncertain and time-varying environments to accomplish their tasks. Observations on humans and animals during their daily tasks suggest that they adapt their leg compliance while traversing with different velocities on different grounds and adjust their...

  • Power Electric System Load and Generation Forecasting via ARMA, ARIMA, and K-Medoids Methods for Grid Expansion Purposes: A Comparison

    Creator:
    McLaughlin, Zachery D.
    Abstract:
    The electric power grids of countries across the globe rely on load and generation forecasting to know when, where, and how much resources need to be dispatched to sustain proper grid operation. Because of this, forecasting needs to be highly accurate to avoid unnecessary resource dispatch which can be costly....
