Fall 2018
Stochastic geometry provides a way of defining and computing macroscopic properties of large scale wireless networks, by averaging over all possible spatial patterns of the network nodes. It abstracts the network as realizations of point process models, and analyzes the network performance in a...

Stochastic Resilience-Oriented Smart Power Distribution System Planning and Operation Against Natural Disasters
DownloadFall 2024
Climate change has become an urgent global concern in the 21st century. Such environmental variation has led to an increasing occurrence of natural disasters. For example, the continuing rises in global temperatures can bring about severe storms and wildfires. Consequently, electrical...

Strategies for Design and Fabrication of Nanoplasmonic Metasurfaces with Extreme Geometric Features
DownloadFall 2022
The ever-increasing integration density of optical components has pushed engineers and physicists to rethink the fundamentals of bulky dielectric lensing systems. Metasurfaces, which are two-dimensional, periodic arrays of metallic (plasmonic) or dielectric scatterers that exhibit exotic...

Strategies for Maximizing Signal to Noise in Decoupled Receive Coil Arrays for Magnetic Resonance Imaging
DownloadFall 2013
Designing radio frequency coil arrays for optimal Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has been a wide area of interest for many years. The optimum coil type for high density arrays and the mitigation of coupling between elements in arrays are significant problems addressed in this thesis. ...

Spring 2010
This thesis investigates stray losses in AC machines using the time-stepped finite element technique. Two aspects of this topic are involved in this thesis. The first aspect is to construct a finite element model for AC machine systems and develop an efficient numerical solution for the system...
