Effect of high pass filtering of the regenerated reference signal in a single channel active noise control system
(
International Institute of Acoustics and Vibration, IIAV
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
An acoustic noise cancellation (ANC) system with regenerative feedback synthesizes its own reference signal based on the error signal and the adaptive filter output. The prime objective of such a configuration is to estimate ...
Effect of reflective surface on the impulse response of the secondary path of an active noise control system
(
International Institute of Acoustics and Vibration, IIAV
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Previous research has shown that a reflective surface has an impact on the control performance of an active noise control system. System identification of the secondary path is of utmost importance in the effectiveness of ...
Modeling prepositioning of resources for humanitarian logistics
(
IEOM Society
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Prepositioning of resources for humanitarian assistance to the victims of natural disaster is an important consideration to mitigate the problem that occurs due to the shortage in the supply of resources. Prepositioned ...
Sequence-Based Simulation Optimization: An Application to Container Terminals
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a novel method for simulation-optimization that incorporates the sequence in which the decision variables (resource levels) are optimized. The authors hypothesize that implementing such a sequence will ...
Uniform fractional factorial design tables for energy piles with maximum thermal conductance
(
WITPress
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Energy Piles are the heat exchangers of Ground Source Heat Pumps (GSHP) that transfer the buildings heat to the lower temperature shallow ground reducing the energy consumption in the cooling of buildings. These piles are ...
A PSO approach for robust aircraft routing
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
To mitigate the impact of unpredictable disruptions, airlines are seeking to proactively design schedules that incorporate some robustness features. In this paper, we propose a novel simulation-optimization approach using ...
Experimental investigation of the laminar flame speeds of GTL fuel blends
(
American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc, AIAA
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This work investigates the laminar flame speed of GTL fuel and its 50%-50% blend with conventional diesel, in a cylindrical bomb capable of measuring laminar flame speed, SN, at different initial temperatures and equivalence ...
Autism in the Gulf States: Why social robotics is the way forward
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we assess the current situation in the Gulf States with respect to autism awareness and diagnostic facilities, and emphasize the need for epidemiology studies in light of prevalence statistics available for ...
Investigation of optimal charging locations for electric vehicles in Istanbul
(
IEOM Society
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Electric vehicles have a great potential to decrease the adverse effects of transportation, especially in metropolitan cities. On the other hand, adoption of the electric vehicles requires supporting infrastructure such ...
Nonlinear stochastic drillstrings vibrations: Parametric study for stick-slip suppression
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Unstable vibrations caused by the transition between static and kinetic frictions produces stick-slip motions which is one of the primary causes of poor drilling efficiency and mechanism failure in the drilling process. ...
