In the present energy crisis scenario, focus of the scientist struggle is to produce sustainable, renewable and continuous form of energy. In this quest, the response of energy production technique using gasification has reproduced positive results. In this project we have focused to substitute diesel consumption using producer gas in a dual fuel power generator. It involves the installation of one...
Presents the introductory welcome message from the conference proceedings. May include the conference officers' congratulations to all involved with the conference event and publication of the proceedings record.
Due to the rapid urbanization, rising travel needs and accessibility, Metro Rail becomes one of the preferred modes of transport for commuters. A safe and reliable Metro System with specified reliability, availability, maintainability and safety (RAMS) requirements are of prime concern. RAMS requirements can be clubbed together to derive service punctuality which can be seen as the core KPI (Key Performance...
In this paper, an online tuning of fractional order proportional integral and derivative controller is proposed. Here, the process parameters of an unknown plant is first modeled into an equivalent First Order Plus Dead Time(FOPDT) process by using online method where an ideal relay is connected in parallel to a Fractional Order Proportional Integral Derivative (FOPID) controller. The FOPID controller...
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) Specification allows combination of different USB components into a single device. This creates a composite device and each component is recognized as an independent device. The aim of the paper is to introduce a novel concept to combine some commonly used USB classes in a single device to create a composite device that functions in multiple ways. The paper shows some...
Proper validation and verification of electrical and electronics products in the design and development phase is very important. Companies manufacturing these products invest a significant amount of money and effort in verification and validation of their products before starting mass production for market, resulting in an increase of the overall development cost of these products. This paper provides...
This paper proposes a robust control strategy for industrial motion control using Extended State Observer (ESO). The proposed control enforces robustness without having the information of uncertainties and disturbances. The ESO is used to estimate the lumped uncertainties and guarantee robust performance. The robustness is analyzed for different uncertainties like backlash, friction and disturbances;...
Today in market miniature devices are gaining extreme popularity. The use of MEMS based devices is seeing a rapid growth and finds applications in wide range of commercial and defense applications. MEMS switches may be of thin metal cantilever, air bridge, diaphragm or some other structure which is electrically configured either in series or parallel with RF transmission line. These switches are designed...
As the technology is scaling downs day by day designing of radio frequency integrated circuit (RFIC's) is introduces more challenges in the world of electronics. The challenges are such as area gain, size, and leakage current, electrostatic discharge (ESD), power consumptions & so many, raises the threat while designing the electronic circuitry. Among all these challenges we are focusing on the...
In this paper, we propose a new constrained global optimization algorithm to solve non-polynomial problems. The proposed algorithm is of branch-and-bound type and use the Taylor-Bernstein form as a higher-order inclusion function for the global optimization. Several new ingredients are incorporated in the proposed algorithm to improve its efficiency, such as a improved range estimating technique along...
Smart grid uses digital technology to increase reliability, security and efficiency of the electrical systems. In country like India the development of smart grid network is necessary to overcome the current power crises. The use of renewable energy is the most important factor in development of smart grid. Integration of renewable energy is not possible without the use of power converters especially...
In this paper, the performance of discrete wavelet transform (DWT) based PID controller is compared to the conventional proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller applied to Liquid level system (LLS). Here, DWT is used to decompose the actuating signal into different scales. The high scale gives the approximate or low frequency information and low scale gives the detail or high frequency information...
This paper proposes an intellectual classification system to recognize normal and abnormal MRI brain images. Nowadays, decision and treatment of brain tumors is based on symptoms and radiological appearance. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a most important controlled tool for the anatomical judgment of tumors in brain. In the present investigation, various techniques were used for the classification...
In this paper, general expressions for the identification of various processes in terms of a stable and unstable first order plus dead time (FOPDT) models are derived. During the identification test, a nonlinear device (relay) is connected to an unknown process through a feedback path which yields sustained oscillations known as limit cycle. The equivalent gain of an asymmetrical relay is approximated...
Synthetic pesticides are widely used in the modern world for human benefit. They are usually classified according to their intended pest target. In Delaware (DE), approximately 42 percent of the arable land is used for agriculture. In order to manage insectivorous and herbaceous pests (such as insects, weeds, nematodes, and rodents), pesticides are used profusely to biologically control the normal...
This paper discusses the results obtained from a solar powered LED roadway lighting system in a reputed manufacturing industry in India. This system is an alternative to conventional grid powered high pressure sodium vapour roadway lighting existing in the industry. Design of LED lighting system for replacing the existing high pressure sodium vapour lamp considering the pupil lumens is discussed in...
The present work describes the indigenous development of a low cost, flexible USB-port based frequency synthesizer-vector voltmeter (FSVV) system that can simultaneously synthesize variable-amplitude-variable-frequency source voltages and measure voltage drops, in vector form, across a portion of a circuit. This is an improved system compared to our previously developed FSVV system [1] in the sense...
