Dynamics of Finite Phononic Crystals and Metamaterials
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2019)
Phononic materials (PMs) are artificially engineered materials that exhibit a periodic variation in their mechanical or geometric properties which culminate in unprecedented bulk properties which are not readily available ...
3D Freeze Nano Printing for Multiscale, Multifunctional Porous Materials
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2018)
Hierarchical porous structures are ubiquitously around us (e.g., bamboo, wood, bone, bird wings). They exhibit many exceptional properties such as light weight, large surface area, and multi-functionality. It would be ...
Intelligent Material Informatics Applications in Design and Manufacturing
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2018)
Material plays a key role in the product realization process. The shape of the product, material allocation, and its fabrication processes must be simultaneously considered in a concurrent manner for enabling quality product ...
USING AN INTELLIGENT UAV SWARM IN NATURAL DISASTER ENVIRONMENTS
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2018)
Due to their volatile behavior, natural disasters are challenging problems that often cannot be accurately predicted. An efficient method to gather updated information of the status of a disaster, such as the location of ...
Classification of Motor Control Features for Surgical Skills Assessment during Robotic Assisted Surgery
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2018)
With the advent of new technologies in Surgery, Robotic Assisted Surgery (RAS) has been the point of research. Surgical Skill Assessment in RAS has increased interest through which the training and feedback to surgeons can ...
Neuroevolution in Control of Intelligent Systems: Benchmark Testing, Simulated and Physical Demonstrations
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2018)
A majority of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) implementations in autonomous systems use a fixed/user-prescribed network topology, leading to sub-optimal performance and low portability. The existing neuro-evolution of ...
Experimental investigation of triboelectric charge on particles in helical gas/solids pipe flow systems
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2018)
In gas/solids pipe flow systems, particles often get triboelectrically charged during their transport, due to frequent collisions with the pipe wall. Helical shaped pipes, due to their mixing effect owing to the curvature ...
Investigating Virtual Environment and Optimal Behavior of Swarm Robots
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2018)
This research encapsulated an innovative approach of implementing A.I based behavior trees in the research of swarm robotics. This work covers the manual development of Behavior Trees and their evolution. Behavior Trees ...
Virtual Coiling for Intracranial Aneurysm Based on Geometric Path Planning using Coil Pre-Shape
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2019)
Embolic coiling is the mainstay endovascular intervention for intracranial aneurysms. To enable better plan treatment, various computational algorithms are developed to simulate coil deployment in patient-specific aneurysms. ...
Low-Cost Method of Estimating Vehicle Sideslip and Tire Cornering Stiffness using Global Positioning and Inertial Measurement
(State University of New York at Buffalo, 2019)
In this study a low-cost method of estimating the linear tire model for a road vehicle is developed, which can be used to make quantitative decisions for tire selection and vehicle modification. As a traditional tire model ...
