Absolute localization of mobile robots in forest environments by correlating ground LiDAR to overhead imagery
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)
A method for the autonomous geolocation of ground vehicles in forest environments is presented. The method provides an estimate of the global horizontal position of a vehicle strictly based on finding a geometric match ...
Improving shipboard applications of non-intrusive load monitoring
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)
The Non-Intrusive Load Monitor (NILM) measures equipment performance by measuring and analyzing the source power to the equipment at a single point in the electrical system. Previous studies have proven the usefulness of ...
Integrated design of semi-displacement patrol crafts
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)
Early stage ship design and assessment continues to be a challenge for naval architects and ocean engineers. The complex and multifaceted interactions between the different components of the ship and the broad spectrum of ...
Analyzing the effects of component reliability on naval Integrated Power System quality of service
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)
The Integrated Power System (IPS) is a key enabling technology for future naval vessels and their advanced weapon systems. While conventional warship designs utilize separate power systems for propulsion and shipboard ...
Development of real time non-intrusive load monitor for shipboard fluid systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)
Since the year 2000, the United States Navy has spent an average of half a billion dollars over the congressionally approved budget for shipbuilding. Additionally, most experts project that in order to meet the Chief of ...
Harmonic approaches to non-intrusive load diagnostics
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)
The Non-Intrusive Load Monitor (NILM) is a system that monitors, records and processes voltage and current measurements to establish the operating characteristics of individual loads on a load center from a single aggregate ...
The integration of international supply chain management and E-business
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)
Internet technology has changed this world rapidly in the past decade. The influence of E-business on the economy and business practice has been tremendous. The focus of many companies has been on improving the extended ...
