Observer-Based Unknown Input Estimator of Wave Excitation Force for a Wave Energy Converter (2019)
Journal Article
Abdelrahman, M., & Patton, R. (2020). Observer-Based Unknown Input Estimator of Wave Excitation Force for a Wave Energy Converter. IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology, 28(6), 2665-2672. https://doi.org/10.1109/TCST.2019.2944329

Several energy maximization control approaches for point-absorber wave-energy converter (PAWEC) systems require knowledge of the wave excitation force (WEF) that is not measurable during the PAWEC operation. Many WEF estimators have been proposed bas... Read More about Observer-Based Unknown Input Estimator of Wave Excitation Force for a Wave Energy Converter.

Detection and measurement and of repolarisation features in atrial fibrillation and healthy subjects (2019)
Thesis
Al-Karadi, M. S. Detection and measurement and of repolarisation features in atrial fibrillation and healthy subjects. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4222173

Major cardiac organisations recommended U wave abnormalities should be reported during ECG interpretation. However, U waves cannot be measured in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) due to the obscuring fibrillatory wave.

The first aim of the r... Read More about Detection and measurement and of repolarisation features in atrial fibrillation and healthy subjects.

Wave excitation force estimation and forecasting for WEC power conversion maximisation (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Shi, S., Abdelrahman, M., & Patton, R. J. (2019, July). Wave excitation force estimation and forecasting for WEC power conversion maximisation. Presented at IEEE/ASME International Conference on Advanced Intelligent Mechatronics (AIM), Hong Kong

Prediction or forecasting of the wave excitation force (WEF) is required for implementing a power ef ciency maximisation control of wave energy converters (WECs) due to the inherent non-causality of required power take-off (PTO) force. WEF prediction... Read More about Wave excitation force estimation and forecasting for WEC power conversion maximisation.
