A comparative study between optimal metal and composite rotors for flywheel energy storage systems
Download2018-11-01
Most recent research on flywheel rotors has focused on high-speed composite rotors as the storage element of the flywheel energy storage system (FESS). Literature research indicates that this is primarily due to the high specific energy of composites compared to metals. However, a quantitative...

Hamm, Michele, Vandermeer, Ben, Thomson, Denise, Milne, Andrea, Tjosvold, Lisa, Klassen, Terry P., Curtis, Sarah, Hartling, Lisa
BACKGROUND: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are the gold standard for trials assessing the effects of therapeutic interventions; therefore it is important to understand how they are conducted. Our objectives were to provide an overview of a representative sample of pediatric RCTs published in...

Action Selection for Hammer Shots in Curling: Optimization of Non-convex Continuous Actions With Stochastic Action Outcomes
DownloadSpring 2017
Optimal decision making in the face of uncertainty is an active area of research in artificial intelligence. In this thesis, I present the sport of curling as a novel application domain for research in optimal decision making. I focus on one aspect of the sport, the hammer shot, the last shot...
