Islas Ohlmaier, Abraham (Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)As portable electronics constantly find their way into the hands of eager consumers, the demands placed on these products and their circuits are ever increasing. More features and more performance are continuously demanded ...
-
Asadi, Peyman (2009-05-15)This dissertation contains the results of research conducted on the design and control characterization of a Switched Reluctance Generator (SRG) for maximum output power. The SRG is an attractive solution to the increasing ...
-
Lively, Charles (2012-07-16)Power consumption is an important constraint in achieving efficient execution on High Performance Computing Multicore Systems. As the number of cores available on a chip continues to increase, the importance of power ...
-
Amba, Tushar (2010-07-14)The work presented in this thesis was concerned with the implementation of a damage control method for U.S. Navy shipboard power systems (SPS). In recent years, the Navy has been seeking an automated damage control and ...
-
Akinnikawe, Ayorinde (2009-05-15)Broadband over Power Line (BPL) technology has garnered significant attention lately due to recent advancements in solid state technologies and channel coding schemes. The successful application of BPL technology for in-home ...
-
Douglin, Richard Henry (2012-07-16)The future of electric power distribution systems (DSs) is one that incorporates extensive amounts of advanced metering, distribution automation, and distributed generation technologies. Most DSs were designed to be radial ...
-
Chou, Hung-Ming (2016-05-06)Smart grids draw lots of attention and interests and they are fundamentally changing traditional power grids. One of the key aspects of smart grid is that more distributed generators (DGs) are connected in distribution ...
-
Akin, Bilal (2009-05-15)Electric motors are used widely in industrial manufacturing plants. Bearing faults, insulation faults, and rotor faults are the major causes of electric motor failures. Based on the line current analysis, this dissertation ...
-
Srivastava, Sanjeev Kumar (Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)The electric power systems in U.S. Navy ships supply energy to sophisticated systems for weapons, communications, navigation and operation. The reliability and survivability of the Shipboard Power System (SPS) are critical ...
-
Gurunath, Pramod (Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)Object Constraint Language (OCL) is part of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) specification and can be used to enforce constraints on the attributes or methods of a class. It would greatly help the software developers ...
-
Uriarte, Fabian Marcel (2011-08-08)An approach to parallelize the simulation of AC-Radial Shipboard Power Systems (SPSs) using multicore computers is presented. Time domain simulations of SPSs are notoriously slow, due principally to the number of components, ...
-
Lively, Charles Wesley, III (Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)Efficient execution of scientific applications requires an understanding of how system features impact the performance of the application. Performance models provide significant insight into the performance relationships ...
