Numerical Methods for Fractional Optimal Control and Parametric Problems
(North Dakota State University, 2011)
Fractional derivatives (FDs) or derivatives of arbitrary order have attracted considerable interest in the past few decades, and almost every field of science and engineering has applications of fractional derivatives. ...
Potential for Industrial Vehicle Electrical Applications
(North Dakota State University, 2011)
Synthetic metals are a branch of material science that deals with conducting organic molecules.
The quantum mechanics of these materials show that doping can fundamentally
change the conduction method and significantly ...
Stress-Function Variational Method and Its Applications in the Strength Analysis of Bonded Joints and Hard Coatings
(North Dakota State University, 2011)
High concentrations of interfacial stress near the adherend ends are primarily
responsible for the debonding failure of bonded joints, such as those structured extensively
in civil and structural engineering; aeronautical, ...
Performance Analysis of an Advanced Emission Reduction Technology Engine During Diesel-Hydrogen Dual Fuel Operation
(North Dakota State University, 2011)
The primary objective of this study was to determine the capability of a CAT
engine controlled by an advanced combustion emission reduction technology
(ACERT) electronic control module to operate in a dual fuel mode. A ...
Numerical Simulation of a Direct Expansion Geothermal Heat Pump Using Carbon Dioxide in a Transcritical Cycle
(North Dakota State University, 2011)
Many of the synthetic refrigerants used in heat pump and air conditioning
systems are potent greenhouse gases. In light of the increasing concern regarding
climate change, there has been an increased interest in natural ...
