(2022-12-07)As the most popular active safety driving technology, adaptive cruise control is favored by major car producers and their end-users. This report presents the history, and the functional and regulatory requirements of the ...
-
(2022-11-05)Environmental issues have been stricken our planet in different areas. Current worldwide problems, for instance, water shortage and the increasing demand for energy can be mitigated by employing technological mechanisms, ...
-
(2022-04-28)A common path planning in robotics is the artificial potential field method. The artificial potential field is the superposition of the attractive potential field generated by the target and the repulsive potential field ...
-
(2022-04-28)Piezoelectric dynamometers are widely used to measure cutting forces during milling operations for diagnostic, process monitoring, and research and development purposes. However, the bandwidth of tooth passing frequencies ...
-
Investigation of Wave Variable Control on Bilateral Teleoperation System with Constant Time Delays (2021-12-23)Teleoperation Systems allow human operators to perform complex tasks in remote and hazardous environments. A wide variety of applications based on teleoperation systems, including space exploration, undersea detection, ...
-
Development of a Finite Element Analysis Workflow for Studying Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (2021-06-13)The primary articulation of the shoulder joint is a multi-axis synovial ball and socket joint. By having a loose connection, it provides a wide range of motion; however, this means the joint lacks robustness and is prone ...
-
(2021-03-08)The flow of granular materials is the subject of various academic research and industrial applications. The rheology of granular materials spans from packing, sorting and transportation of the pharmaceuticals to the study ...
-
(2021-01-19)Concrete is the most widely used construction material throughout the world. Extensive experiments are conducted every year to measure various physical, mechanical, and chemical properties of concrete involving a hefty ...
-
(2020-12-27)As renewable energy production has become more popular in society, the need for large scale energy storage has increased. By storing energy from sources such as solar and wind power, energy can be produced when it is most ...
-
(2020-08-18)This work investigates the mechanical properties of 3D printed polymers namely Polylactic Acid (PLA) and Polypropylene (PP), which underwent the process of tensile and bending testing. The PP material is utilized in the ...
-
(2020-05-04)Reliable, economic and efficient energy storage is needed to help shift from primarily fossil fuel generated electricity to clean energy. This report develops a thermodynamics based model for an osmotic energy storage (OES) ...

(2019-07-04)Non-spherical granular flow is strongly affected by the shape of grains. In this project, a numerical analysis is performed for two non-spherical grains such as rice and lentil by applying a kinematic continuum model as ...
-
(2019-05-18)Alberta is a resource abundant province and with more than 38 million hectares of forest land (more than 60% of the province land), it has a considerable potential of bioenergy resources. While the annual wood production ...
-
(2018-08-30)One of the main detrimental factors for the durability of exterior building envelopes is the presence of water. Capillary rise is a major mechanism for water penetration inside the building materials in the liquid state. ...
-
(2018-08-10)The production of Portland cement causes environmental pollution due to the amount of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere. This environmental pollution can be reduced by improving the usage of industrial by-products. ...
