Towards Improving Stainless Steel Cathode Performance during Copper Electrodeposition

Stainless steel permanent cathodes are widely used in the electrodeposition of copper during its production. Copper is mechanically-stripped from the permanent cathode on a regular basis, after which the cathode is typically visually inspected, water-washed and returned to the production cell. However, offline refurbishment is required to ensure a high quality product (chemical purity, surface […]

Optimization of Large-Scale Power Systems with Electromagnetic Transient Simulators

Design of modern electric power systems in which renewable energy resources are included is a challenging task. This is because these power systems employ a large number of sophisticated power converters and control methods that need to be accurately tuned. The task of tuning and optimizing these converters and their controls is tedious, repetitive, and […]

Dynamic actor tracking for Augmented Reality-based filmmaking guidance

Augmented Reality can help in simplifying the filmmaking process by intelligently suggesting shot composition angles for amateur filmmakers to take better shots. In partnership with Rubber Match Productions, researchers will investigate how actors within an AR filmmaking environment can be dynamically tracked to provide real-time guidance to the filmmaker for shot composition. The project will […]

Cold Plasma Degradation of Aflatoxin M1 While Maintaining Milk Quality

Aflatoxins (AFB1, AFB2, AFG1, AFG2) are poisonous mycotoxins that are produced by two common molds, Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus, in cereal grains and maize. When dairy cows ingest AFB1 toxin through contaminated feed, it is metabolized into carcinogenic AFM1 toxin, and it is transferred in milk. AFM1 contamination of milk poses a significant health […]

Software development for beam-type structures’ reliability analysis

Reliability analysis of structures is crucial to ensure efficient operations in industrial assets. Nowadays, industries benefit from condition monitoring (CM) equipment to evaluate their products’ health. Current commercial reliability software can not accurately analyze the reliability of structures under time-varying conditions. The intern has previously developed an algorithm for accurate reliability analysis of different structures. […]

Secure Communication Based on Public Key Distribution with Imbalanced Twin-Field-QKD-like Infrastructure in Classical Coherent Optical Fiber Network

In quantum key distribution (QKD), the twin-field has been proposed as a means to overcome the linear key rate bound, and hence the key generation rate, as well as to enable repeaterless QKD transmission. Despite significant progress in TF-QKD and its variations in recent times, the key rates are still significantly low compared to practical […]
