An Ann-Based System For Lateral Misalignment And Vertical Clearance Estimation Of An Electric Vehicle During Dynamic Wireless Charging, Sanat Kumar Saha Aug 2019

An Ann-Based System For Lateral Misalignment And Vertical Clearance Estimation Of An Electric Vehicle During Dynamic Wireless Charging, Sanat Kumar Saha

All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023

Due to decaying fossil fuel reserves, oil price fluctuation and detrimental effects on climate the use of fossil fuel has, people are getting more interested in other alternative energy sources. In the past couple of decades, the Electric Vehicles have emerged as a robust environment-friendly alternative to conventional gasoline-driven vehicles. Although EVs have a problem with the limited energy storage, Stationary and Dynamic Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) systems for the charging of EVs can be an effective solution. However, in a WPT system, energy efficiency and energy transfer capability are significantly affected by the level of Lateral Misalignment. The real-time …

Open water swimming is a common activity dating back to ancient times. One challenge with open water swimming is navigation because while maintaining proper swimming technique suggests the head be in the water, it is difficult to see where one is going. Thus swimmers must bring their head out of the water periodically to sight landmarks. This work describes a solution to this problem by a design for a GPS device to assist swimmers with navigation. The swimmer can plan their own route, send it to the device, and then be guided by the device. They then will not have …
