Optical Surface Plasmons in Semiconductors
(2012-09-04)A theoretical treatment is presented of a plasmonic interaction at an interface between a semiconductor and a dielectric, as opposed to the more traditional configuration whereby a metal/dielectric interface is investigated. ... -
Optically engineered ultrafast pulses for controlled rotations of exciton qubits in semiconductor quantum dots
(2012-07)No abstract available. -
Optically faint counterparts to the ISO-FIRBACK 170 micron population: the discovery of cold, luminous galaxies at high redshift
(2002-07)We present Keck spectroscopy and UKIRT near-IR imaging observations of two 170micron-selected sources from the ISO-FIRBACK survey which have faint counterparts in the optical, and r-K~5. Both sources were expected to lie ... -
Optics
(2009-07-24)In this scientific journal, James Dinwiddie focuses on optics. He begins with a series of queries related to optics and expands the discussion to the compositon and humours of the eye as well as various experiments in ... -
Optics, No. 1-3
(2009-07-22)These lecture notes written by James Dinwiddie in 1793 focus on optics. Dinwiddie discusses the properties of various instruments including microscopes, telescopes, and magic lanterns as well as convex and concave lenses. ... -
OPTIMAL ANNEALING PATHS FOR ADIABATIC QUANTUM COMPUTATION
(2011-12-16)Shor’s algorithm shows that circuit-model quantum computers can factorize integers in polynomial time – exponentially more efficiently than classical computers. There is currently no analogous algorithm for Adiabatic Quantum ... -
Optimal control of piecewise deterministic Markov processes.
(Dalhousie University, 1990) -
OPTIMAL DISTRIBUTED GENERATION SIZING AND PLACEMENT VIA SINGLE- AND MULTI-OBJECTIVE OPTIMIZATION APPROACHES
(2013-07-24)Numerous advantages attained by integrating Distributed Generation (DG) in distribution systems. These advantages include decreasing power losses and improving voltage profiles. Such benefits can be achieved and enhanced ... -
Optimal dynamic monitoring network design for reliable tracking of contaminant plumes in an aquifer system.
(Dalhousie University, 2006) -
OPTIMAL ECONOMIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL OPERATION OF ELECTRIC POWER SYSTEMS VIA MODERN META-HEURISTIC OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHMS
(2012-01-25)Due to world-wide escalating fuel costs, increasing demand for electricity, and growing concern for the environment, power utilities strive for optimal economic operation of their electric networks. Striking a balance ... -
OPTIMAL FILTER PLACEMENT AND SIZING USING ANT COLONY OPTIMIZATION IN ELECTRICAL DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
(2014-05-15)This thesis presents an application of the Ant Colony algorithm for optimizing filter placement and sizing on a radial distribution system to reduce power losses and keep the effective harmonic voltage values and the total ... -
Optimal Fuzzy Input Set of Fuzzy Relation Equations Using Biogeography-Based Optimization Algorithm
(Dalhousie University, 2016-06-27)This study presents an approach to optimally find a fuzzy input set that can be used with the fuzzy relation to producing a fuzzy output. In this study, the fuzzy relation model is translated into a mathematical optimization ... -
Optimal Pricing and Production Strategies in Closed-Loop Supply Chains with Convex Recovery Costs, Variable Returns Quality and Remanufacturing Losses
(2017-04-06)The management of remanufactured products has become an important issue for manufacturers because of the associated economic benefits and the sustainability legislation adopted by governments. Pricing strategy is a key ... -
OPTIMAL PRODUCTION, PRICING AND AFTER-SALES SERVICE DECISIONS FOR NEW AND REMANUFACTURED PRODUCTS
(2021-03-29)In 2015, the United Nations Member States adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development with at its core 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs) to preserve the planet and its resources for future generations. ... -
Optimal quantum control for conditional rotation of exciton qubits in semiconductor quantum dots
(2011-11)No abstract available. -
Optimal Transport Scenario for Access to EVT with Consideration of Patient Outcomes and Cost
(2021-04-21)There are two treatments for ischemic stroke: medical treatment (tPA) and endovascular therapy (EVT). EVT can only be used to treat ischemic strokes caused by a large vessel occlusion (LVO). EVT is only offered at hospitals ... -
