The Design of an On-Chip Silicon Photonic Diode
(2013-05-28)
This work presents numerical calculation of electromagnetic waves in unidirectional on-chip silicon optical diodes. An original optical diode, designed by Wang et. al. [Opt. Express. 19, 26948-26955 (2011)], is based on ...
Nonlinear Effects In Flow In Porous Duct
(2013-05-28)
In general, it is assumed in some non viscous flows that the flow velocity is constant at a cross-section. In this thesis, If we impose more realistic boundary conditions by, for example, introducing viscosity,and suction ...
Electro-Magnetic Duality, Magnetic monopoles and Topological Insulators
(2013-05-28)
The Maxwell equations of electrodynamics acquire an additional symmetry if one assumes the existence of hypothetical particles-magnetic monopoles, carrying a magnetic charge. The additional internal symmetry is the ...
Fundamentals of Laser Dynamics
(2013-04-23)
The thesis presents the modeling and simulation of three types of lasers namely; Semiconductor laser, Solid state laser and CO2 laser. The rate equations were derived and simulated to examine the dynamic behaviour of the ...
Combining Machine Learning Techniques with Statistical Shape Models in Medical Image Segmentation
(2013-05-07)
In this thesis, we implemented Point Distribution Model and basic Active Shape Model algorithm and contributed this to the AUST Computer Vision and Machine Learning code library. We applied the Active Shape Model to ...
Interactive Simulation of Well Placement Technology
(2013-04-12)
We attempt the design and development of an educational game based on the Input-Process-Outcome model. This tool helps students and other professionals to learn and appreciate the decision-making processes carried out by ...
Design and Implementation of a Native Mobile Multimedia Learning Application Framework on Android Platform
(2013-05-23)
Internet connectivity is one of the fundamental requirements for a successful mobile learning environment. However, within the context of Africa, availability and access, let alone cost, still pose a great challenge in ...
Opinion Mining/Sentiment Analysis
(2013-04-15)
There has been tremendous growth in the amount of user generated content on the Internet. This is due to rise in social networks and the embrace of web 2.0 or technologies. The Internet is no longer a place for consumption ...
Characteristic Inequalities in Banach Spaces and Applications
(2013-05-27)
The contribution of this project falls within the general area of nonlinear functional analysis and applications. We focus on an important topic within this area: Inequalities in Banach spaces and applications. As is well ...
Quadratic forms with Applications
(2013-05-27)
The scope of Quadratic Form Theory is historically wide although it usually appears almost as an afterthought when needed to solve a variety of problems such as the classification of Hessian matrices in finite dimensional ...
