Optimal Load Shedding Scheme for a Model Renewable Energy Micro-Grid.
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2020)Optimization of demand control in renewable energy micro-grids involves developing load shedding schemes and searching for the most optimum. With climate change campaign in favor of renewable energy micro-grids or integration ... -
Coherent Swing Under-Frequency Transient Stability for Renewable Sources Islanded Micro-Grid.
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2020)Renewable Energy Sources micro-grids experience operational challenges due the unpredictable weather patterns, requiring continuous demand control schemes, which are detrimental to both customers and the micro-grid operator. ... -
A hybrid MRI method based on denoised compressive sampling and detection of dominant coefficients
(University of Nairobi, 2017-08)In this paper, a hybrid method for acquisition and reconstruction of sparse magnetic resonance images is presented. The method uses conventional spin echo Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) with only a few Phase-encoding ... -

Aerosol Transport Over Equatorial Africa
(1999)Long-range and inter-hemispheric transport of atmospheric aerosols over equatorial Africa has received little attention so far. Most aerosol studies in the region have focussed on emissions from rain forest and savanna ... -
Assessment of Learning and Its Retention in the Engineering Design Classroom: Part B — Instrument Application
(2007)This paper describes the application of the instrument developed to measure engineering design knowledge gain as a result of a course. The goal for the development of the instrument was the need for an assessment instrument ... -
Effective Design Project Management with a Spreadsheet Based Approach
(2005)The use of team projects as a way to teach engineering design is pervasive across all engineering disciplines and throughout the curriculum. The success of any design team --both in learning design concepts and performing ... -
Discretizing Continuous Problems for Faster Global Convergence
(2003)Global optimization of mechanical design problems using heuristic methods such as Simulated annealing (SA) and genetic algorithms (GAs) have been able to find global or near-global minima where prior methods have failed. ... -
A Compromise Method for the Design of Parametric Polynomial Surrogate Models
(2005)This study presents a compromise approach to augmentation of response surface (RS) designs to achieve the desired level of accuracy. RS are frequently used as surrogate models in multidisciplinary design optimization of ...
