A fast non-dominated sorting guided genetic algorithm for multi-objective power distribution system reconfiguration problem
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Power distribution systems are designed and constructed as closed loops, but they are operated in a radial topology by choosing suitable open tie ... -
New topologies of high gain-step-up dc-dc power converters for renewable energy applications
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] This dissertation proposes new topologies of high step-up dc-dc power electronic converters for integration renewable energy systems, such as photovoltaic ... -
Opto-electronic class AB microwave power amplifier using photoconductive switch technology
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)Next generation land-based, mobile, phased-array radar systems for battlefield applications must meet constraints on volume, weight, power consumption, and data processing capability that are currently not available. The ... -
Photoswitch-based Class E microwave power amplifer
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)Currently radar systems have problems with power losses and efficiency, so more power is used and more heat removal is needed. The primary source of loss is the final amplifier in the transmission-receive (TR) module. The ... -
A study of the effects of cycling frequency on lithium-ion and lithium polymer batteries' degradation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)Conventional energy sources are depleting rapidly and might last for another 50-150 years depending on our current usage. Environmental issues like global warming are also rising quickly. Renewable energy sources can address ...
