Optimal Planning of Microgrids under Uncertainty

Utilizing advanced tools for optimal planning of Microgrids with high renewable energy penetration. Our models would be robust to handle uncertainty in supply, demand and technological changes. The inputs to our model would be demand, supply data (meteorological data) and technological costs for the specified location for the past. Statistical analysis of the data would […]

Structure-Activity Relationships of Hafnium Dioxide Nanoparticles for Cancer Radiotherapy and Imaging

Nanoparticles made from hafnium dioxide (hafnia; HfO2) have emerged as a potential enhancer of cancer radiation therapy. Such nanoparticles allow for reduced doses of radiation to be used on tumors, sparing healthy tissue from side effects without reducing its anti-cancer effects. However, despite their potential, it is not yet known how different nanoparticle properties, such […]

Testing and Verification of Deep Neural Network

In AI safety, compliance ensures that a model adheres to operational specifications at runtime to avoid adverse events for the end user. This proposal looks at increasing the suite of compliance testing and verification tools available to ML practitioners by implementing two more tools, CGDTest and Goose. The overall goal is to develop both proposed […]

Closed loop, vapor-phase processing of nickel for porous materials for EV batteries

The proposed research project aims at technology for environmentally benign recycling of nickel. The process entails conversion of nickel found in the “black mass” from recycled Ni-based batteries into nickel carbonyl, Ni(CO)4, by reaction with CO at modest temperatures around 50-120°C (pressuredependent). Only nickel carbonyl is volatile under these conditions and is easily separated from […]

Fabrication of Deformable Micro Mirrors

Histology studies the microscopic anatomy of biological tissues, which is critical to clinical disease management and fundamental to biological understanding. However, current approaches that rely on bright-field microscopy require extensive issue preparation prior to imaging and may thus take days. Photoacoustic remote sensing, or PARS, can dramatically reduce the histology bio-imaging time from days to […]
