Many countries have built vehicles from ground up. A sub set of such countries have built Super Cars. A subset of such countries has built electric super cars. Out of those countries only a rare few have built all of the electronics, control systems needed for the car, with a 20x smaller budget and a 10x smaller team. So how is this even possible? What is our story? Could we even pull this off? Our...
The Advanced Signal Processing Circuits (ASPC) laboratory at the University of Akron was established in 2010, to conduct basic research involving antenna array signal processing, reconfigurable systems, and multidimensional filters. The target applications span communications, cognitive radio, radio astronomy, microwave imaging, and radar. In this talk, we will discuss our areas of investigation,...
The objective of this paper is to share the experience in establishing the Indian Ocean Tsunami Warning and Mitigation System, a successful collaborative effort by Indian Ocean member states under UNESCO /Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (Paris). The paper is presented to highlight key learning achievements and good practices. It also focuses on policies which had to adopted, on capacity...
There is growing global interest on bio-methane as a vehicular fuel and Europe Union (EU) has stated that this as a best well-to-wheel fuel. Commercialization of bio-methane under atmospheric conditions is limited due to its requirement of higher storage capacity. Compressed bio-methane systems have been currently commercialized in Europe in order to increase its low energy density however the process...
Biomass is recently gaining popularity in industry as a promising source of renewable energy. Thermal conversion of biomass is recently gaining increased attention of researchers as a way of improving the efficiency of raw biomass fuel due to higher advantages it gives as compared to direct biomass combustion. These conversion methods are well studied using mathematical models and computer simulations...
Metal processing industry in Sri Lanka began around 3000BC. Ancient chronicles like Mahavansaya, Thupavansa and Pujavaliya proved the Sri Lanka's history of metal industry. Archaeometallurgical surveys of Sri Lanka have revealed a non-conventional wind-driven iron smelting furnace for the first time in the world. Some of them dated back to third century BC. Replications of iron smelting process have...
The advantages of nanocomposites containing single silicate layers uniformly dispersed in a polymer matrix were first demonstrated by researchers at Toyota in Japan, who developed nylon-6 nanocomposites and published in 1993. Polymer-nanoclay nanocomposites have attracted the attention of many researchers thereafter due to their outstanding mechanical and barrier properties. This concept is first...
