The aim of this project is to investigate the attenuation due to clouds at 20- 50GHz; to develop an accurate long-term prediction model of cloud attenuation applicable to slant-path links and evaluate the impact of cloud ...

Due to an ever increasing demand for power consumption and a rising public awareness of the impact on the environment, renewable energy based on Hybrid Power Systems (HPS) (e.g. fuel cell, wind or solar) to supply electricity ...

Performance and redundancy requirements imposed on state-of-the-art unmmaned combat aerial vehicles often lead to over-actuated systems with a mix of conventional and novel moment generators. Consequently, control ...

The concurrent flow of two immiscible liquids (Oil-Water) in pipelines is usually encountered in oil production and pipeline transportation. Water is present in crude oil and separation facilities. The aim of this thesis ...

Traditional power supply for wireless sensor nodes is batteries. However, the application of batteries in WSN has been limited due to their large size, low capacity, limited working life, and replacement cost. With rapid ...

This thesis describes a new approach for a vision-based positioning system for Un- manned Aerial Vehicles using a recognition method based on known, robust geo- graphic landmarks. Landmarks are used to calculate a position ...
