Numerical Modeling Of Deformation, Oscillation, Spreading And Collision Characteristics Of Droplets In An Electric Field, Osameh Ghazian
Numerical Modeling Of Deformation, Oscillation, Spreading And Collision Characteristics Of Droplets In An Electric Field, Osameh Ghazian
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Electric field induced flows, or electrohydrodynamics (EHD), have been promising in many fast-growing technologies, where droplet movement and deformation can be controlled to enhance heat transfer and mass transport. Several complex EHD problems existing in many applications were investigated in this thesis.
Firstly, this thesis presents the results of numerical simulations of the deformation, oscillation and breakup of a weakly conducting droplet suspended in an ambient medium with higher conductivity. It is the first time that the deformation of such a droplet was investigated numerically in a 3D configuration. We have determined three types of behavior for the droplets, which …
Monostatic Airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar Using Commercial Wimax Transceivers In The License-Exempt Spectrum, Kai Liu
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
The past half-century witnessed an evolution of synthetic aperture radar (SAR). Boosted by digital signal processing (DSP), a variety of SAR imaging algorithms have been developed, in which the wavenumber domain algorithm is mature for airborne SAR and independent of signal waveforms. Apart from the algorithm development, there is a growing interest in how to acquire the raw data of targets’ echoes before the DSP for SAR imaging in a cost-effective way. For the data acquisition, various studies over the past 15 years have shed light on utilizing the signal generated from the ubiquitous broadband wireless technology – orthogonal frequency …
Automated Image Interpretation For Science Autonomy In Robotic Planetary Exploration, Raymond Francis
Automated Image Interpretation For Science Autonomy In Robotic Planetary Exploration, Raymond Francis
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Advances in the capabilities of robotic planetary exploration missions have increased the wealth of scientific data they produce, presenting challenges for mission science and operations imposed by the limits of interplanetary radio communications. These data budget pressures can be relieved by increased robotic autonomy, both for onboard operations tasks and for decision- making in response to science data.
This thesis presents new techniques in automated image interpretation for natural scenes of relevance to planetary science and exploration, and elaborates autonomy scenarios under which they could be used to extend the reach and performance of exploration missions on planetary surfaces.

Contextual Anomaly Detection Framework For Big Sensor Data, Michael Hayes
Contextual Anomaly Detection Framework For Big Sensor Data, Michael Hayes
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Performing predictive modelling, such as anomaly detection, in Big Data is a difficult task. This problem is compounded as more and more sources of Big Data are generated from environmental sensors, logging applications, and the Internet of Things. Further, most current techniques for anomaly detection only consider the content of the data source, i.e. the data itself, without concern for the context of the data. As data becomes more complex it is increasingly important to bias anomaly detection techniques for the context, whether it is spatial, temporal, or semantic. The work proposed in this thesis outlines a contextual anomaly detection …
Hybrid Data Storage Framework For The Biometrics Domain, Abhinav Tiwari
Hybrid Data Storage Framework For The Biometrics Domain, Abhinav Tiwari
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Biometric based authentication is one of the most popular techniques adopted in large-scale identity matching systems due to its robustness in access control. In recent years, the number of enrolments has increased significantly posing serious issues towards the performance and scalability of these systems. In addition, the use of multiple modalities (such as face, iris and fingerprint) is further increasing the issues related to scalability. This research work focuses on the development of a new Hybrid Data Storage Framework (HDSF) that would improve scalability and performance of biometric authentication systems (BAS). In this framework, the scalability issue is addressed by …
