• A fuzzy logic approach to modeling a vehicle crash test 

      Pawlus, Witold; Karimi, Hamid Reza; Robbersmyr, Kjell G. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      This paper presents an application of fuzzy approach to vehicle crash modeling. A typical vehicle to pole collision is described and kinematics of a car involved in this type of crash event is thoroughly characterized. The ...
    • Bond graph modeling and simulation of wind turbine systems 

      Bakka, Tore; Karimi, Hamid Reza (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      This paper addresses the problem of bond graph methodology as a graphical approach for the modeling of wind turbine generating systems. The purpose of this paper is to show some of the benefits the bond graph approach has, ...
    • Dynamic characterization for the dielectric electroactive polymer fundamental sheet 

      Iskandarani, Yousef; Karimi, Hamid Reza (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      A study into the appropriateness of characterizing the dynamics of the dielectric electroactive polymer (DEAP) fundamental sheet has been performed. Whereby a model describing the dynamics of the DEAP fundamental sheet is ...
    • Modeling, simulation and design optimization of a hoisting rig active heave compensation system 

      Gu, Peter; Walid, Ahmed Ahmed; Iskandarani, Yousef; Karimi, Hamid Reza (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      The objective of this paper is to present an approach in developing a virtual active heave compensation system for a draw-works on a hoisting rig. A virtual system enables quicker overall product development time of a ...
