• Hybrid and parallel-computing methods for optimization of power systems with electromagnetic transient simulators 

  Kuranage, Dilsha (2023-03-29)

  This thesis introduces new methods for using electromagnetic transient (EMT) simulators to efficiently optimize controllers of the power electronic converters in power systems with complicated dynamic behavior. This work ...

• Numerical study of projectile shape effect on the bumper performance under hypervelocity impact 

  Domingo, Patrick (2023-03-29)

  Impacts in orbit from small micrometeoroids and small non-trackable orbital debris are generally unavoidable and pose a threat to spacecraft due to the high collision speeds exceeding 7 km/s. The design of spacecraft ...

• Process-based calibration of HYPE model for climate change impact assessment of Nelson Churchill River Basin 

  Bajracharya, Ajay (2023-03-27)

  Process-based calibration of a hydrological model is an important step to ensuring model fidelity, or how ‘faithfully’ the model reproduces reality, which is even more meaningful for the catchments in northern latitudes ...

• Performance of lift joints subjected to thermal fatigue cycles 

  Kriegl, Adam (2023-03-28)

  Northern Manitoba is host to many pieces of infrastructure that have important roles in the province’s hydroelectric network. These generating stations and spillways are subjected to harsh fluctuations in environmental ...

• Development of a corrugated core sandwich panel with enhanced MMOD shielding capability 

  Howlader, Tanvir (2023-03-29)

  The growing threat of orbital debris is a significant concern for active and future spacecraft. This study exploits the concept of redesigning the components of spacecraft, adding to them a new function of space debris ...
