The study of interactions of jet into cross flow at different longitudinal and transverse angles of jet was studied. The following components were designed and constructed: a low velocity wind tunnel to produce the uniform flow, a flat plate with a traverse injection system to simulate the jet injection, and a spatial rake to measure the total pressure. The tests were carried out at longitudina...

Inverter-based microgrids essentially constitute an extensive communication layer that makes them vulnerable to cyber anomalies. The distributed cooperative controllers implemented at the secondary control level of such systems exchange information among physical nodes using meet objectives. anomalies targeting network may distort normal operation, therefore, effective anomaly mitigation techni...

A need for a reduction in energy intensity and greenhouse gas emissions of bitumen heavy oil recovery processes has led to the invention several methods where mass-transfer-based terms cold or heated solvent injection are used reduce viscosity rather than steam injection. Despite extensive numerical experimental investigations, field results not always aligned what is predicted unless history m...

Unlocking oil from tight reservoirs remains a challenging task, as the existence of fractures and oil-wet rock surfaces tends to make recovery uneconomic. Injecting gas in form foam is considered feasible technique such for providing conformance control reducing gas-oil interfacial tension (IFT) that allows injected fluids enter matrix. This paper presents modeling strategy aims understand beha...

The goal of a driving simulator is to produce an environment for a driver similar to the real driving scenario. Motion cueing algorithms are used to produce a realistic motion while respecting the workspace limitations and motion simulator boundaries. Model Predictive Control has become popular recently for motion cueing. However, in this control method, the optimization is based on a predefine...

We examine the simple idea of allowing users of graphical user interface to view their documents in perspective whenever they need to navigate them. We argue that the virtual camera metaphor involved in GUIs can be likened to a flight simulator where looking in the direction of motion is impossible because the camera points fixedly to the ground. While little seems to have done been so far in H...

Physical fault injections break security functionalities of algorithms by targeting their implementations. Software techniques strengthen such implementations to enhance their robustness against fault attacks. Exhaustively testing physical fault injections is time consuming and requires complex platforms. Simulation solutions are developed for this specific purpose. We chose two independent too...

Subcutaneous (SC) injection is becoming a more common route for the administration of biopharmaceuticals. Currently, there is no reliable in vitro method that can be used to anticipate the in vivo performance of a biopharmaceutical formulation intended for SC injection. Nor is there an animal model that can predict in vivo outcomes such as bioavailability in humans. We address this unmet need b...

The increasing complexity of processors allied to the continuous technology shrink is making multicore-based systems more susceptible to soft errors. The high cost and time inherent to hardware-based fault injection approaches make the more efficient simulation-based fault injection frameworks crucial to test reliability. This paper proposes a fast, flexible fault injector framework which suppo...
