    • Energy harvesting from suspension system using regenerative force actuators 

      Khoshnoud, Farbod; Sundar, D. B.; Badi, Mohamed; Chen, Yong; Calay, Rajnish; De Silva, C.W. (2013)
      In this paper harvesting vibration energy from suspension is investigated. Theoretical values for the harvested energy are calculated. Experimental evaluation of the energy is performed using vehicle road simulation ...

    • Stochastic simulation of energy extraction with an optically controlled nano-electromechanical engine 

      Khoshnoud, Farbod; De Silva, C.W.; Owhadi, H. (2011-01-01)
      Stochastic simulation of a nano-electromechanical energy transducer is presented in this paper. This system acts like an engine with four transformations in each engine cycle that converts potential energy due to quantum ...

    • Structural vibration modeling using a neuro-fuzzy approach 

      Sadeghi, A.; Esat, I.I.; Ventura, C.E.; De Silva, C.W.; Khoshnoud, Farbod (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2006-01-01)
      A novel vibration modelling method based on fuzzy sets is presented in this paper. In this method, firstly the mode shapes of a structure are guessed using experience or the rules that are developed in this research. The ...
