Condition Assessment of In-Service Pendulum Tuned Mass Dampers
(University of Waterloo, 2012-09-28)Tuned mass dampers (TMDs) are auxiliary damping devices installed within tall structures to reduce undesirable wind-induced vibrations and to enhance the overall system damping and hence, the dissipative capacity. The ... -
Modeling Continuous Emotional Appraisals of Music Using System Identification
(University of Waterloo, 2004)The goal of this project is to apply system identification techniques to model people's perception of emotion in music as a function of time. Emotional appraisals of six selections of classical music are measured from ... -
On-line Monitoring and Oscillatory Stability Margin Prediction in Power Systems Based on System Identification
(University of Waterloo, 2006)Poorly damped electromechanical modes detection in a power system and corresponding stability margins prediction are very important in power system planning and operation, and can provide significant help to power system ... -
Open-Loop Transient Atomic Force Microscopy
(University of Waterloo, 2023-02-01)The Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) is an instrument for measuring, in fact “seeing”, phenomena at nanoscale (10^(-9) m) and all the way down to the atomic scale (<10^(-10) m). It was borne out of a need to observe physical ...
