A 9.4 Tesla Transmit and Receive MRI Quadrature Birdcage Coil Design and Fabrication for Mouse imaging
(2014-12-04)
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an image modality used for clinical diagnosis as well as animal research. The study described in this thesis is intended for animal MRI application. In order to acquire high-resolution ...
Design of Wide Band Transformer-Based Oscillator and Capacitive Coupled Multi-Phase VCO
(2013-11-11)
Since globe wireless demand is increasing rapidly, more delicate and functional radio frequency (RF) devices are required. Software defined radio (SDR) has been introduced to address the challenges in this complicated ...
A digital method to determine the transmissibility of a MEMS device
(2015-01-07)
A microcontroller based technique for measuring the transmissibility of a MEMS device is very useful and meaningful. The resulting data can provide feedback to improve the design, modeling and fabrication process. A new ...
Design and Testing of an Electronic Load Board for Power Supply Validation and Verification
(2014-05-05)
As the need for high efficiency in power supplies increases, so does the need to test and verify the designs of the supplies. To test the design, efficiency, and reliability of a low-voltage, high-current power supply, an ...
Thin Film Multichip Packaging for High Temperature Geothermal Application
(2015-07-28)
A DOE sponsored study by MIT concluded that geothermal energy could provide 100,000 MWe or more in 50 years by using advanced technology knowns as Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS). In EGS, the measurement-while-drilling ...
Quantification Techniques for Arterial Blood Flow and the Left Atrium
(2014-07-29)
Cardiovascular dysfunction is a major cause of morbidity and mortally. As such, the characterization of the heart and surrounding vessels has a high clinical significance. The advent of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging ...
A Study of Harmonic Distortion Limit Change During the Reconfiguration Process of the Smart Grid
(2014-07-11)
On the purpose to find out if harmonic distortion limits of customer installations will change during a smart grid reconfiguration process, the thesis was completed. The smart grid concept has been widely accepted to ...
Comparison of Chinese and International Harmonic, Interharmonic and Flicker Standards
(2014-09-11)
Power quality is one of the essential problems related to daily life with growing quantities of power electronic equipment invading our homes, offices and factories. Standards for power quality, including harmonics, ...
Fabrication and characterization of compliant off-chip double helix and carbon nanotube interconnect
(2014-12-10)
Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) type double helix chip-level electrical interconnect structures are fabricated and characterized in this work. Due to their springlike structure, double helix interconnects have the ...
Multi-robot SLAM and map merging
(2015-05-04)
Although it is a very useful technique for a robot to detect an unknown environment and plot the map, mapping is a classic problem in robotics. The mapping task can be sped up by multi-robot cooperation. Each robot in a ...
