Dynamic system equivalents using integrated PSS/E and Python for transient stability studies
(2021-03)
Transient stability studies are required to be carried out for an efficient and secure operation of power systems. However, due to the limitations of computer memory and processing speed, handling a complete set of DAEs ...
Deep learning techniques applied to the remote sensing of soil moisture and sea ice type
(2021)
This thesis presents deep learning techniques applied to the modeling of geophysical quantities with remote sensing data to estimate soil moisture and classify sea ice type. The objective of the thesis is to determine if ...
Frequency scan based stability analysis of power electronic systems
(2021-01-29)
Frequency scanning is a numerical method for extracting the frequency response of a power electronic system (PES). This technique is performed via injecting a small-amplitude wide-band signal in the time-domain simulation ...
Probabilistic evaluation of distribution network reliability in the presence of renewable energy sources, energy storage and electric vehicles
(2021-03)
Increased penetration of electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy sources (RESs) in power systems can directly affect the system reliability and impose additional complexities to planning and operation due to their ...
Vascular plaque detection from optical coherence tomography images
(2021-03)
It is difficult to detect atherosclerotic plaque from optical coherence tomography (OCT) images via visual inspection. In this work, we developed three algorithms to allow us to detect atherosclerotic plaque more effectively: ...
Development of short back-fire antennas and electromagnetic modeling techniques for remote sensing of oil-contaminated sea ice
(2021)
This thesis presents research into microwave remote sensing technologies for Arctic Science applications.
In the first part of my thesis, I created and verified procedures for measuring the dielectric of a small volume ...
Using machine learning methods for wind turbine power curve modeling
(2021-05)
Wind turbine power curve modeling plays an important role in wind energy management. Accurate estimation of power curves can help reducing power systems maintenance costs. In this thesis, we use machine learning techniques ...
