Title of the Paper:  Modeling the Impact of Carbon Dioxide on Marine Plankton

 

Authors: Sajib Mandal, M. S. Islam, M. H. A. Biswas

Pages: 197-202

http://doi.org/10.46300/9102.2020.14.25

Abstract: Marine plankton is the main absorber of environmental carbon dioxide. According to scientists, the marine plankton not only absorbs approximately 30-50% carbon dioxide but also supplies about 70% oxygen of the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide helps the marine plankton to carry on the photosynthetic activity which promotes the growth of the planktonic population. As a result, the increasing plankton absorbs more saturated carbon dioxide and supplies more oxygen. In this article, a mathematical model has been proposed to describe the contribution of carbon dioxide on marine plankton. We have analyzed the model both analytically and numerically. The study discloses natural behaviors along with mathematical modeling.


Title of the Paper:  Conditioning Optimal Structure Electronics for Piezo-devices

 

Authors: Andres Garcia, Andres Roteta Lannes, Ezequiel Arnaude

Pages: 193-196

http://doi.org/10.46300/9102.2020.14.24

Abstract: In this paper, an optimal condition- ing electronics conguration is derived for piezo- electric energy harvesting. Unlike conventional studies where optimal energy(power) is extracted from a given piezo-conditioning circuit, this re- search focuses on the determination of the supre- mum: the optimal conguration extracting the biggest possible amount of energy (power) to the load. Along with the electronic design guided by the optimal solution (Pontryaing's principle), LT- Spice simulations are compared side by side with a pre-specied conguration using an LDO pub- lished previously by the authors.


Title of the Paper: A Systematic Literature Review on Metaheuristic Optimization Techniques in WSNs

 

Authors: Omar Gouda, Ali Bou Nassif, Manar AbuTalib, Qassim Nasir

http://doi.org/10.46300/9102.2020.14.23

Abstract: Metaheuristic algorithms are recognized for developing new algorithms and optimizing various aspects in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Evaluating a multitude of possible modes is required, in most complicated problems, to obtain an exact solution. Metaheuristic algorithms can obtain solutions in acceptable time constraints. These algorithms play an operational role in solving such problems by optimizing the different metrics such as coverage rate and energy consumption of the networks. These metrics have valuable impact on network lifetime as well. This systematic review focuses on the published work from 2010 to 2020 in metaheuristic optimization in WSN. Furthermore, the systematic review will answer multiple questions that will be discussed in the methodology section.


Title of the Paper:  Resolution of Time-Dependent Navier-Stokes Equations with a new Boundary Condition

 

Authors: Abdeslam El Akkad, Najib Guessous, Ahmed Elkhalfi

Pages: 177-186

http://doi.org/10.46300/9102.2020.14.22

Abstract: In this work, a numerical solution of the unsteady incompressible Navier- Stokes equations with a new boundary condition is proposed. The method suggested is based on an algorithm of discretization by finite element method in space and the Euler full-implicit scheme in time. The matrix system is solved at each iteration with a preconditioned GMRES method. Also, we proposed two types of a posteriori error indicator, with one being for the time discretization and the other for the space discretization. We prove the equivalence between the sum of the two types of error indicators and the full error. In order to evaluate the performance of the method, the numerical results of two-dimensional backward-facing step flow are compared with some previously published works or with others coming from commercial code like ADINA (Automatic Dynamic Incremental Nonlinear Analysis) system.


Title of the Paper:  Fault Detection through Vibration Signal Analysis based on HSM with TRIPPY Classifier

 

Authors: Sumit Kumar Sar, Ramesh Kumar

Pages: 167-176

http://doi.org/10.46300/9102.2020.14.21

Abstract: A proficient fault detection model has to be sketched for detecting slight variations of the vibrating signal of rotating machine whereas the diagnosis process prominently stuck with the inefficient extraction of effectual features of a signal in reduced time. Existence of above stated hilarious issue results in the confinement of inventive Harmonized Swan Machine (HSM) based on the stochastic characteristics of swan, which could collect the RKC (RMS, Kurtosis, Crest factor) signal features for every instantaneous signal unit which eliminates noise thereby reducing pre-processing task which in turn lessens time consumption and at the end yields learned extracted faulty features. Accurate classification of faulty features can be accomplished by casting inimitable Trippy classifier which is designed based on selective predictive character of trippy fish which provokes a good path to provide accurate classification based on learned features. This responsible classifier collectively organises the RKC features of respective signal units and do accurate classification of faulty occurrences based on the features in less time.


Title of the Paper:  New Two-step Conjugate Gradient Method for Unconstrained Optimization

 

Authors: Issam A.R. Moghrabi

Pages: 161-166

http://doi.org/10.46300/9102.2020.14.20

Abstract: Two-step methods are secant-like techniques of the quasi-Newton type that, unlike the classical methods, construct nonlinear alternatives to the quantities used in the so-called Secant equation. Two-step methods instead incorporate data available from the two most recent iterations and thus create an alternative to the Secant equation with the intention of creating better Hessian approximations that induce faster convergence to the minimizer of the objective function. Such methods, based on reported numerical results published in several research papers related to the subject, have introduced substantial savings in both iteration and function evaluation counts. Encouraged by the successful performance of the methods, we explore in this paper employing them in developing a new Conjugate Gradient (CG) algorithm. CG methods gain popularity on big problems and in situations when memory resources are scarce. The numerical experimentations on the new methods are encouraging and open venue for further investigation of such techniques to explore their merits in a multitude of applications.


Title of the Paper:  Dually Operated Control Cupola Furnace With Maintaining Constant Air Blast for Improving Production Gain of Iron

 

Authors: Huzifa A. Fidvi, Akash M. Langde

Pages: 151-160

http://doi.org/10.46300/9102.2020.14.19

Abstract: Cupola furnace is the most commonly used for the melting of ferrous metals and alloys. The key challenge in this paper is variation of air blast which lead to productivity loss and moreover affects the small scale industries. In order to overcome the above key challenge our work has proposed a Dually Operated Control Cupola Furnace which states that constant air blast can be obtained by controlling manually as well as automatic. Manual operation is obtained by maintaining constant Motor-Torque-Speed-Ratio using inverter driven blower along with space vector pulse width modulation. Automatic operation inhabits a feedback control system using nonlinear model predictive controller which is operated on control valve driven blower. Automatic operated cupola furnace obtains a prediction value for obtaining the productivity gain based on number of experimental observations and overall gives the required constant air blast by considering blast volume, blast temperature and oxygen enrichment. Thus our model enhances the system performance by achieving productivity gain in terms of melting rate and super heating temperature.

Abstract: Cooking has become a challenge in areas where the energy access is limited and the single available fuel is wood. Day by day, more people have been reported with respiratory diseases, caused mainly by the smoke that emits carbon monoxide (CO), particular matters (PM) and other highly harmful compounds resulting from the poor combustion generated on the simplest stoves those using fuel wood. Hence an efficient, hot burning Rocket Stove has been deployed with fabric filters in the earlier days. However, the rocket stoves with fabric filter removes the PM content that is also in small amount mean while considering CO, CO2 and other toxics remains same in the emitted gas/smoke. To tackle with these pollution issues, our proposed work innovates a Bi-folded Colander Framework, which combines a Knapsack filter and simulated Carbon with Cellulose Nano fiber filter to purify the exhaust gas/smoke. It is highly sensitive to filter the nano particles as well the toxic compounds exist in the exhaust smoke. Thus our proposed methodology effectively reduces the pollutions with our novel framework and enhances the fuel efficiency of the rocket stove.

http://doi.org/10.46300/9102.2020.14.15

Abstract: The quality of a machined part strongly depends on the state of wear and the cutting tool. This wear is a major problem in the field of industry. This depends on several factors such as the material to be machined, the cutting tool, the cutting conditions and the machining process. All these factors have the corollary of a significant production of heat at the tool-chip interface. This heat induces accelerated wear of the cutting tool, which considerably limits the performance of the machine tool and is mainly detrimental to both the workpiece and the cutting tool. In this study, the main objective is to contribute to the study of the mechanisms of degradation of the tool by carrying out from an experimental approach based on the techniques of thermocouples located in places studied in order to avoid the influence of parasitic and undesirable parameters such as surface regeneration vibrations, etc. This approach is carried out experimentally by measuring the temperature of the cutting face (friction tool / chip interface). From the results collected during the experiment, we can understand the effects of different turning parameters on the temperature developed on the face of the tool and the appropriate turning conditions to obtain a maximum material removal rate at a lower temperature. The results obtained are represented and analyzed graphically.

http://doi.org/10.46300/9102.2020.14.14

Abstract: The final quality of machining is directly a function of the type of machine used. The geometrical and micro quality geometrical of finished surface are one of the principal goals of machining. During the operation of turning, in particular, the elastic behaviour of the pin controls the surface quality machined. To say that the rigidity of the machine must be largest possible is not sufficient. The design of the axes of movement of the machine must take account of the effects static, kinematics, dynamic of the mass. The rigidity and the conditions of maintenance by the stages must be qualified in comparison with the results sought in term of machined surface quality. To characterize the effect of the vibrations of the machine tools on the quality of the machined surfaces a study was undertaken on two different lathes, a conventional turn and a turn with numerical control. The results of roughness show that the machine tool exploits a great role the machined surface quality. The rigidity of the machine and its capacities damping are prevalent factors to have a good surface quality.To this end the choice of a thing rigid and damping tool is essential for any trial run and any industrial machining in series.


Title of the Paper: Hasty Fault Diagnosis of a Rotating Machinery Hinge on Stalwart Trippy Classifier with Robust Harmonized Swan Machine

 

Authors: Sumit Kumar Sar, Ramesh Kumar

Pages: 92-102

http://doi.org/10.46300/9102.2020.14.13

Abstract: Monitoring with fault diagnosis of machineries are critically important for production efficiency and plant safety in modern enterprises. Along the process of fault diagnosis due to the addition of faulty signals, it is not an easy task to extract the exact representative features from the original signal. Accordingly, for making the vibration signal analysis more effective, there is a need to have the proper faulty feature extraction and moreover to have the proper estimation of spectral density for eminently producing stable decomposition results even if the signal contains missing values. Moreover, there is a difficulty to measure the correlation between the features with the existing fault diagnosis researches and also it considers more learning time as well as memory constraints which makes the learned concept difficult to understand for classifying the faulty features prominently. Thus to commensurate a perfect diagnosis, in this research a “Robust Harmonised Swan Machine (RHSM) with Stalwart Trippy classifier” is formulated in which the iterative estimation of each mode satisfying a self-consistency nature in decomposition method of RHSM which in turn resolves the missing sample problem eminently and aids reinforcement learning precisely which measures the correlation between the features to classify the faulty features extremely thereby it takes only less memory constraint with less learning time.

Title of the Paper: Efficient Method to Fault Identification, Based on Grouping Components, for Industrial Processes

 

Authors: Luiza Ocheană, Dan Popescu, Luca Ferrarini

Pages: 60-67

http://doi.org/10.46300/9102.2020.14.9

Abstract: In this paper we present a novel method for fault identification in Discrete Event Systems, which was developed using the classical diagnoser method. Our goal was to decrease as much as possible the amount of computation that needs to be done to generate a diagnoser and to use it for isolating faults. The proposed method consists in grouping the components of the plant in several types and to generate the plant model, the system model and the diagnoser for the “grouped plant”. In this way the size of the automata is reduced. The method is presented and tested on a loading station in a comparative analysis with the method without grouping.

http://doi.org/10.46300/9102.2020.14.7

Abstract: Earth observation and environmental control arebecoming more important where the realization of DEM by thetechnique of interferometry of RSO images facilitates thecontrol of terrestrial deformations, which is the subject of thispaper.The unwrapping phase is a very important step in theinterferometry process, especially to treat it carefully in steepdegraded and mountainous ground. We have focused on thereduction and sometimes the elimination of the residues in flatterrains and otherwise to keep the maximum of the residues inthe very steep sites. For this purpose, the methods developedand proposed are based on a transformation by the ISODATAwhich is based on KMEANS and the double passage of themedian filter, and this in order to limit the creation of thebrunch-Cut for the progress of the filtered interferogram(elimination of large black spot on The Brunch-Cut image).Thetests of this method were carried out on several sites, andshowed good results.

Title of the Paper: On the Correctness of One Model of the Stefan-Type Filtration Theory

 

Authors: Mukhambetzhanov S.Т., Zhanuzakova

Pages: 19-27

http://doi.org/10.46300/9102.2020.14.4

Abstract: In this paper a mathematical model of filtration theory with phase transitions is investigated. When using surface-active substances (surfactants) for the development of oil and gas fields in the reservoir occur sorption processes at the interfaces of individual phases (surfactants and oil, or surfactants and soil). In real processes, a finite time is required for achievement equilibrium. Therefore considering the mathematical model was called the mathematical model with phase relaxation. The solvability of the mathematical model, the limiting transition in relaxation time are investigated. It is proved that in the limiting case, the original problem is a problem of Stefan type.


Title of the Paper: Prediction of Solutions of Arithmetic and Logical Operations on the Basis of the Mathematical Model of Cognitive Digital Automata

 

Authors: Valeriy Kozhevnikov, Victor Prikhodko

Pages: 16-18

http://doi.org/10.46300/9102.2020.14.3

Abstract: An approach to the problem of solution prediction of arithmetic and logical operations on the basis of the mathematical model of cognitive digital automata (CDA) is proposed. A particular advantage of the proposed approach is that the training procedure can be performed on limited (minimum) training sets. Prediction or generation of solutions is performed on the basis of the mathematical model of CDA which is formed in the course of training. As a testbed for the approach, the modeling of an n-bit parallel adder was implemented. The mathematical model of the adder was formed, which made it possible to reproduce the entire truth table for the n-bit parallel adder. The results obtained could be useful as an alternative solution to a number of problems known for conventional feed-forward neural networks, e.g. on-the-fly learning and catastrophic forgetting.

Title of the Paper: Identification and Removal of Non-acoustic Noise in Towed Array Sonar Using F-Κ Transform for Enhanced Torpedo Detection

 

Authors: Jomon George, Baiju M Nair, T. Santhanakrishnan

Pages: 1-6

http://doi.org/10.46300/9102.2020.14.1

Abstract: Low frequency passive towed array sonar is an essential component in a torpedo detection system for surface ships. Compact towed arrays are used for torpedo detection and they will be towed at higher towing speeds compared to conventional towed array sonars used for surveillance. Presence of non-acoustic noise in towed array sensors at higher towing speeds degrades torpedo detection capability at lower frequencies. High wavenumber mechanical vibrations are induced in the array by vortex shedding associated with hydrodynamic flow over the array body and cable scope. These vibrations are known to couple into the hydrophone array as nonacoustic noise sources and can impair acoustic detection performance, particularly in the forward end fire direction. Lengthy mechanical vibration isolation modules can isolate vibration induced noise in towed arrays, but this is not recommended in a towed array which is towed at high speeds as it will increase the drag and system complexity. An algorithm for decomposing acoustic and non-acoustic components of signals received at sensor level using well known frequency-wavenumber transform (F-K transform) is presented here. Frequency-wavenumber diagrams can be used for differentiating between acoustic and non-acoustic signals. An area of V shape is identified within the F-K spectrum where acoustic energy is confined. Energy outside this V will highlight non-acoustic energy. Enhanced simultaneous spatio-temporal and spatio-amplitude detection is possible with this algorithm. Performance of this algorithm is validated through simulation and experimental data.
