(SAE International, 2013-04-08)A two-passenger, all-wheel-drive urban electric vehicle (AUTO21EV) with four direct-drive in-wheel motors has been designed and developed at the University of Waterloo. An advanced genetic-fuzzy active steering controller ... -
Development of an Advanced Torque Vectoring Control System for an Electric Vehicle with In-Wheel Motors using Soft Computing Techniques
(SAE International, 2013-04-08)A two-passenger, all-wheel-drive urban electric vehicle (AUTO21EV) with four direct-drive in-wheel motors has been designed and developed at the University of Waterloo. A 14-degree-of-freedom model of this vehicle has been ... -
Development of an In Vitro Ocular Platform to Test Contact Lenses
(Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2016-06-04)Currently, in vitro evaluations of contact lenses (CLs) for drug delivery are typically performed in large volume vials,1-6 which fail to mimic physiological tear volumes.7 The traditional model also lacks the natural tear ... -
Development of an Integrated Control Strategy Consisting of an Advanced Torque Vectoring Controller and a Genetic Fuzzy Active Steering Controller
(SAE International, 2013-04-08)The optimum driving dynamics can be achieved only when the tire forces on all four wheels and in all three coordinate directions are monitored and controlled precisely. This advanced level of control is possible only when ... -

Diagenetic history and reservoir properties of the Cenomanian-Turonian carbonates in southwestern Iran and the Persian Gulf
(Elsevier, 2017-12-01)Shallow-marine carbonates of the mid-Cretaceous Sarvak Formation are important reservoir rocks in southern Iran and the Persian Gulf region. These carbonates were deposited on the margin of the Arabian Plate and rest on ... -
A diagnostic approach to constraining flow partitioning in hydrologic models using a multiobjective optimization framework
(American Geophysical Union, 2017-04-21)Hydrologic models are often tasked with replicating historical hydrographs but may do so without accurately reproducing the internal hydrological functioning of the watershed, including the flow partitioning, which is ... -
Diagnostic data for neurological conditions in interRAI assessments in home care, nursing home and mental health care settings: a validity study
(BioMed Central, 2013-11-01)Background: The interRAI suite of assessment instruments can provide valuable information to support person-specific care planning across the continuum of care. Comprehensive clinical information is collected with these ... -
