Abstract:
L’utilisation de systèmes d’imagerie à rayons X lors de chirurgies mini-invasives expose patients et staff médical à des radiations ionisantes. Même si les doses absorbées peuvent être faibles, l’exposition chronique peut causer des effets nocifs (e.g. cancer). Dans cette thèse, nous proposons des nouvelles méthodes pour améliorer la sécurité vis-à-vis des radiations ionisantes en salle opératoire hybride dans deux directions complémentaires. Premièrement, nous présentons des approches pour rendre les cliniciens plus conscients des irradiations grâce à des visualisations par réalité augmentée.

Abstract:
This thesis presents the findings of an investigation into hybrid mode feed horns for use in the next generation of reflector antennas for satellite communications at Ka- band. Within the thesis, general field theory is developed and subsequently applied to specific horn-types in an effort to understand and explore the limits of the bandwidth over which they can offer suitable radiation characteristics. Studies into the use of both corrugated and dielectric-loaded horns identify a shortfall in their performance, particularly in the context as feeds for elliptical reflector antennas at Ka-band,

Abstract:
This project considers the planning and scheduling of an operating theatre at a large Australian public hospital, with the aim of reducing the length of elective surgery waiting lists. Operating theatre planning and scheduling is performed using an integrated approach, where specialties, surgeons, and patients are scheduled simultaneously. Hyper and hybrid metaheuristic techniques are presented, as the case study instances are too difficult for commercial solvers. Results indicate that these methods can be implemented in real-life to improve surgical departments at public hospitals by reducing

Efficiency is a driving constraint for electrical power systems as global energy demands are ever increasing. Followed by the introduction of diesel generators, electricity has become available in more locations than ever. However, operating a diesel generator on its own is not the most energy efficient. This is because the high crest factor loads, of many applications, decrease the fuel efficiency of a hydrocarbon generator. To understand this, we need to understand how an electrical load affects a generator. Starting with a load profile, a system designer must choose a generator to meet peak

The first purpose is to verify the simulated benefits of adapting previous six-legged Wheg robotic platforms to a four-legged Wheg amphibious design with a tail. The second purpose is to provide a platform to continue autonomous design and testing in the amphibious environment. In addition, the challenges of previous NPS surf-zone designs are investigated as well as the new challenges of making an amphibious platform to include the following: suspension system, drivetrain

Abstract:
In the first part of this thesis, we study revenue management in resource exchange alliances. We first show that without an alliance the sellers will tend to price their products too high and sell too little, thereby foregoing potential profit, especially when capacity is large. This provides an economic motivation for interest in alliances, because the hope may be that some of the foregone profit may be captured under an alliance. We then consider a resource exchange alliance, including the effect of the alliance on competition among alliance members. We show that the foregone profit may inde

Abstract:
<p>Although several systems with structure editors have been built, no model exist to formally describe the edit operations used in such editors. This thesis introduces such a model --- a formalism to describe general structure edit operations for text oriented documents. The model allows free bottom-up editing for any tree-based structural document with a textual content. It can also handle attribute and erroneous structures. Some classes of common structures have been identified and structure editor specifications constructed for them, which can be used and combined in the creation of other

CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior<br>The study deals with the problems of Production Scheduling in Flow Shop environment with multiple machines in the production stages, where the setup time is not inserted in the processing time of the operations. May be a production system in which the setup depends on whether or not the sequence of tasks, where tasks are performed without interruption between successive operations, also called production system no-wait. Being proposed in this work, twenty methods of heuristic solutions defined by Priority Rules, which provide an ord

Abstract:
Solar energy as one type of the renewable energy becomes more and more popular which has led to increase the photovoltaic (PV) installations recently. One of the PV installations is the power conditioning system which is to convert the maximum available power output of the PV modules to the utility grid. Single-phase microinverters are commonly used to integrate the power to utility grid in modular power conditioning system. In the two-stage microinverter, each PV module is connected with a power converter which can transfer higher output power due to the tracking maximum power point (MPP) ca
