- Description:
- Dual-slope analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are known for their high accuracy, but slow conversion times. The objective of this project was to design a 12-bit dual-slope analog-to-digital converter in a 0.5 µm CMOS process which rejects 60 Hz noise and employs fully-differential circuits. Each circuit within the ADC was designed and simulated using the Mentor Graphics computer-aided design (CAD) integrated circuit (IC) design tools in order to meet a set of target specifications.

- Description:
- To design a circuit that measures and controls the pressure of the generated steam to the required level. Also, that keeps track of sun path to get maximum exposure of sunlight and thus getting optimum energy level from solar radiation. This system has main components like pressure sensor, Data Acquisition System (DAS), Control Valve, water Reservoir, Steam Turbine, Water Inlet and Sun Tracking Circuit.

- Description:
- The analysis of Power Systems under fault condition represents one of the most important and complex task in Power Engineering. The studies and detection of these faults is necessary to ensure that the reliability and stability of the power system do not suffer a decrement as a result of a critical event such a fault. This project will conduct a research, analyze the behavior of a system under fault conditions and evaluate different scenarios of faults.

- Description:
- Voltage Stability is becoming an increasing source of concern in secure operation of present-day power systems. There is a need to perform studies to ensure that the reliability of the power system is not decreases as a result of unstable voltage. This project will analyze the voltage stability of a system and mainly focuses on the identification of critical power flow path, critical bus and critical line in a power system

- Description:
- This project will focus on the design of wideband antenna arrays, which can operate in the 1-22 GHz band. The design process utilizes the principle of providing unequal spacing between adjacent elements of the array, which has the desired effect of significantly increasing the bandwidth of a default uniformly spaced array. This project will have applications such as radio astronomy. Both one-dimensional and two-dimensional array geometries will be considered for simulation.

- Description:
- A prototype automated radiochemistry system to separate copper and zinc was developed and tested as a proof of concept using off-the-shelf modular pieces. A graphical user interface was developed to provide a manual interface to all modular devices for functionality tests, calibration, and user definable automated routines. The testing validated the automated control of the chemical copper-zinc separation process using water instead of the needed chemicals.

- Description:
- In this project, simulations of simple electromagnetic structures have been performed. Inductive loop sensors and ball grid array structures have been analyzed using 3D and 2D full-wave electromagnetic simulators along with scientific calculation software. Fundamental electromagnetic concepts are presented and electromagnetic structures are simulated and analyzed. Applications of these structures are presented. The characteristics of these applications are compared to published data.

- Description:
- Using electrodes to read electrical signals from the human body and display them on an oscilloscope requires an analog front end to properly capture, amplify, and digitize the voltage levels from the electrodes. The first stage of the analog front end is the low noise amplifier (LNA), which is designed to amplify the signal by 40db or more, without adding significant noise. This application also requires the LNA to reject any common-mode noise that may be present on the signal by at least 100db.

- Description:
- In this project, a novel method predicting voltage collapse named Wide-Area Loss Index (WALI) will be tested on IEEE 3-machine 9-bus system and IEEE 10-machine 39-bus system. A region of interest is considered for voltage criteria calculation. The simulation is implemented in MATLAB Simulink. The results for the voltage instability prediction by using WALI coefficient will be published in an IEEE paper.

- Description:
- The project focuses on the relay protection of two power transformers, a 30MVA and a 40MVA respectively. Specifically, the project focuses on the design and the application of the 51, 50, 50G and 87 protection schemes for the two power transformers. The design results were used to write a testing procedure and a test plan using AcSELerator and Test Universe Software for the four different relays.
