Flow response to rapid morphing flap deflection (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Abdessemed, C., Yao, Y., Bouferrouk, A., & Narayan, P. (2019, March). Flow response to rapid morphing flap deflection. Paper presented at 54th 3AF International Conference on Applied Aerodynamics, Paris - France

Flow response to rapid morphing flap deflection is investigated at a Reynolds number based on chord of 0.62×10^6 for a 2D NACA 0012 airfoil fitted with a morphing Trailing-edge flap (TEF) at a range of angles of attack and morphing frequencies. T... Read More about Flow response to rapid morphing flap deflection.

Enhancing the learning process of people with special needs using wearables and Artificial Intelligence (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Bakthavatchaalam, V. (2019, March). Enhancing the learning process of people with special needs using wearables and Artificial Intelligence. Paper presented at UNESCO: Mobile Learning Week 2019, Paris, France

Wearables are widely used in monitoring various physical activities and biological signals of an individual to improve their current lifestyle. This research proposes a novel way to enhance the learning of individuals with special needs, by collectin...

Integrating shelf life constraints in capacitated lot sizing and scheduling for perishable products (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Chen, S., Berretta, R., Mendes, A., & Clark, A. (2018, December). Integrating shelf life constraints in capacitated lot sizing and scheduling for perishable products. Paper presented at 26th ASOR National Conference for the Australian Society of Operations Research, Melbourne, Australia

In this study, we consider a multi-item capacitated lot sizing and scheduling problem for perishable food products, which have a fixed shelf life period due to depreciation issues, such as physical deterioration or perceived value loss. We incorporat... Read More about Integrating shelf life constraints in capacitated lot sizing and scheduling for perishable products.

Optimal distribution power system reconfiguration using Genetics Algorithms and Branch exchange method (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Nouri, H. (2018, October). Optimal distribution power system reconfiguration using Genetics Algorithms and Branch exchange method. Paper presented at CISTEM2018, Algiers, Algeria

This paper uses Genetic Algorithms (GAs) and the branch exchange method to solve the optimal reconfiguration in radial distribution systems subject to power loss reduction that determine the optimal switches. The GA is a relatively powerful intellige... Read More about Optimal distribution power system reconfiguration using Genetics Algorithms and Branch exchange method.

A review of current technical development in vertical axis wind turbine technologies and their braking system for low speed, urban and offshore areas application (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Syawitri, T., Yao, Y., & Chandra, B. (2018, October). A review of current technical development in vertical axis wind turbine technologies and their braking system for low speed, urban and offshore areas application. Paper presented at International Conference of Global Warming and Climate Change 2018, Bangkok, Thailand

Recently, there are growing interests of using Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) to harvest wind energy from low wind speed in urban areas to relatively high wind speed in offshore wind farms. Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT) has been known to hav...
