Robots should be capable of interacting in a cooperative and adaptive manner with their human counterparts in open-ended tasks that can change in real-time. An important aspect of the robot behavior will be the ability to acquire new knowledge of the... Read More about Towards a Platform-Independent Cooperative Human Robot Interaction System: III.

Single end feeder arcing fault location using mutual inductance (2012)
Journal Article
Alamuti, M. M., & Nouri, H. (2012). Single end feeder arcing fault location using mutual inductance. European Transactions on Electrical Power, 22(8), 1136-1145. https://doi.org/10.1002/etep.633

Impedance-based fault location methods to date are able to locate only permanent and linear faults. Current fault location methods assume that arc resistance is constant to locate the fault. However, because of the variable nature of the arc resistan... Read More about Single end feeder arcing fault location using mutual inductance.

CFD prediction and experimental measurement of blade water coverage in a diesel turbocharger (2012)
Journal Article
