Abstract:
<p> The objective for this thesis is to outline a Performance-Based Engineering (PBE) framework to address the multiple hazards of Earthquake (EQ) and subsequent Fire Following Earthquake (FFE). Currently, fire codes for the United States are largely empirical and prescriptive in nature. The reliance on prescriptive requirements makes quantifying sustained damage due to fire difficult. Additionally, the empirical standards have resulted from individual member or individual assembly furnace testing, which have been shown to differ greatly from full structural system behavior.

Electronic control systems have become an integral part of the modern vehicle and their installation rate is still on a sharp rise. Their application areas range from powertrain, chassis and body control to entertainment. Each system is conventionally control led by a centralised controller with hard-wired links to sensors and actuators. As systems have become more complex, a rise in the number of system components and amount of wiring harness has followed. This leads to serious problems on safety, reliability and space limitation.

The Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) is one of the most popular matching algorithms in the field of computer vision. It takes over many other algorithms because features detected are fully invariant to image scaling and rotation, and are also shown to be robust to changes in 3D viewpoint, addition of noise, changes in illumination and a sustainable range of affine distortion. However, the computational complexity is high, which prevents it from achieving real-time.
