(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)This research attempts to answer the questions involving the time and size of capacity adjustments for better supply chain management. The objective of this research is to analytically determine simple structures to adjust ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Ship drivers have long understood that powerful interaction forces exist when ships operate in close proximity to rigid boundaries or other vessels. Controlling the effects of these forces has been traditionally handled ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Hazard avoidance is an important capability for safe operation of robotic vehicles at high speed. It is also an important consideration for passenger vehicle safety, as thousands are killed each year in passenger vehicle ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Most of the current uninhabitated Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are individually monitored, commanded and controlled by several operators of different expertise. However, looking forward, there has been a recent interest in ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)It is generally presupposed that the shapes and mechanisms encountered in nature have evolved in such a way as to maximize the robustness of a species. However, most such optimization problems arising in biology are ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Skeletal muscles are the primary actuators that power, stabilize and control locomotive and functional motor tasks in biological systems. It is well known that coordinated action and co-activation of multiple muscles give ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)This thesis considers the optimization and hybridization of advanced zero emissions power (AZEP) cycles. More specifically, existing flowsheets for zero and partial emissions are optimized, and new integration schemes with ...
