The Use Of Superplastic Tin-Lead Alloy as a Solid Lubricant in Metal Forming Processes in General and in Forging in Particular[ ]


The main function of a lubricant in any forming process is to reduce friction between the work piece and the die set, hence reducing the force and energy requirement for forming process and to achieve homogenous deformation. The free upsetting test is an important open forging test. In this paper, superplastic tin-lead alloy is used as solid lubricant in the free upsetting test of ferrous and non-ferrous materials and compared with eight different lubricants using the following three criteria: one comparing the value of the reduction in height percentages, i.e. the engineering strain, in identical specimens of the same material under the effect of the same compressive force. The second is comparing the amount of barreling produced in each of the identical specimens, at each lubricant. The third criterion is using the specific energy, i.e. the energy per unit volume consumed in forming each material, using the different lubricants to produce the same reduction in height percentage of identical specimens from each of the two materials, namely: die steel, D2, and stainless steel. It was found that the superplastic tin-lead alloy lubricant has produced higher values of reductions in height percentage and less barreling in the two ferrous materials, used in this work, among the different used lubricants.

Design and Analysis of Image Segmenta-tion with Efficient Energy Minimization Function[ ]


In image processing domain, there are variety of image segmentation techniques presented by research communities. Such segmentation methods are based on different image features. Segmentation of the target object(s) from images that have multiple complicated regions, mixture intensity distributions or are corrupted by noise. In addition, the conventional piecewise smooth level set models normally require prior knowledge about the number of image segments. To address these problems, we propose a novel segmentation energy function with two distribution descriptors to distinguish the background and the target region. The single background descriptor models the heterogeneous background with multiple regions. Then, the target descriptor takes into account the intensity distribution and incorporates local spatial constraint. Our descriptors, which have more complete distribution information, construct the unique energy function to differentiate the target from the background and are more tolerant of image noise. We compare our approach to multiphase level set and the Chan-Vese level set. This comparison using 160 synthetic images with varying levels and types of image noise and medical images with more complicated backgrounds showed that our method outperforms these models for accuracy and immunity to noise. On an additional set of 300 synthetic images, our model is also less sensitive to the contour initialization as well as to different types and levels of noise. The practical analysis of proposed work is carried by using well known image processing tool called MATLAB.

Utilization of Natural Resources in Jordan for Energy Storage[ ]


Jordan is a developing and non- producing oil country. The majority of its energy needs is imported from the neighboring Arab countries; where only 4% of its needs is produced locally and 96% is imported. However, Jordan is very rich in renewable energy resources. The main objective of this work is to discuss the challenges facing the Jordanian energy sector, and evaluate the renewable energy resources of the country. The main renewable energy resources in Jordan are: solar, wind, geothermal and biomass. Using these energy resources may significantly decrease the energy reliance on oil which is imported from the Arab oil neighboring countries and improve the Jordanian population’s access to energy and hence enhance the economic situation and hence improve the standard of living of the people in the country. It is expected that wind and solar energy resources have the potential to account for certain percentage of electricity demand; the utilization of the geothermal energy for heating and cooling can reduce the cost of conventional energy used for these applications especially Jordan is very rich in this item and the geothermal wells are distributed all over the country. Regarding the biomass resource, the conversion of agricultural waste into biodiesel can also reduce diesel imports. Similarly, the conversion of animal waste into biogas has the potential to replace certain % of the imported LPG. Finally, a reliable economical insulated storage tank which utilizes sand as a storage medium which can be easily maintained is suggested and discussed.

Design of Digital Logics for Automatic Temperature Control in Spacecrafts[ ]


Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) maintains the temperature of a given node or location within the temperature limits by ON-OFF con-trol of the heaters on spacecrafts. The observation of satellites thermal behavior is a continual process that foresees the temperature distributions throughout the components and subsystems, all of which need to remain in most favorable temperature range for proper performance. The proposed system aims in designing the digital logics for Automatic Temperature Control in spacecrafts by using the heater switching logic. Telecommand is the command sent from ground station to the spacecraft. Telemetry is the data sent by the satellite to ground station. The heaters are organized as groups in spacecrafts and the Solid State Switches are used for switching the raw bus (high voltage) to the heaters. The heaters play the key important role in protecting the spacecrafts components under the cold-case environmental conditional and also to warm up the components to their minimum operating temperatures before turned ON. The temperature value is compared with the lower and upper threshold point (LTP and UTP) values. When the temperature value is above the UTP value, the heater is made OFF and when the temperature value is below the LTP value, the heater is made ON. This way the heaters are controlled.

Arithmetic Cosine Transform Architecture for Computing the Discrete Cosine Transform for Signal Processing Applications[ ]


This paper introduces the Arithmetic Cosine Transform (ACT), speedy algorithm for the evaluation of Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) in digital signal processing. The common algorithms which used to calculate accurate value of DCT includes floating point operations and are mainly concentrated on multiplication which in turn causes the round-off error to occur. The Arithmetic Cosine Transform is proposed for the rapid calculation of DCT where the computation is focused on addition and constant multiplications which reduces the internal errors like round off and truncation. ACT results in less area consumption and low power consuming operations in case of zero-mean input signals. Calculation of ACT can be done with reasonable accuracy, reduction in area and less power using the novel architecture described for non-null mean signals as well. For the computation of eight-point DCT, ten non-uniform sampling instances are required when ACT is introduced. The implementation are done with Xilinx ISE Design suite 10.1 and coded in Verilog HDL. The two architectures are simulated and synthesized using Cadence encounter and the physical design is obtained.

Solar Energy Conservation in Domestic & Irrigation Water Supply[ ]


Energy is one of the major parameters for establishing growth and progress of a country. Solar energy is the most abundant source of energy in the world. Solar power is not only an answer today’s energy crisis but also an environmental friendly form of energy. India has the second largest agricultural land in the world (World Bank data shows that about 60.3 percent of India's land area is agricultural land). With approximately 60% of the earth's fresh water being used to irrigate crops it is not reasonable to assume that all the farmers in the world grab their buckets and do watering of crops. However, typical irrigation systems consume a great amount of conventional energy through the use of electric motors and generators powered by fuel. Solar panels are now used for running street lights and to meet domestic loads. The cost of solar panels has been decreasing. One of the application of this technology is used in irrigation system for farming. The objective is to supply water for the fields through solar powered water pump and automate the system for better management of resources using GSM technique. This system conserves electricity by reducing the usage of grid power and easy to implement and environment friendly solution for irrigating fields. Solar power irrigation system can be a suitable alternative for farmers in the present state of energy crisis in India. The objective of this paper is to supply water for the fields through solar powered water pump and automate the system for better management of resources.

Replacing river sand with granulated copper slag in cement[ ]


Copper Slag is generated as a by-product material during production of copper metal from its ore. Utility of Copper Slag at present ranges from land-filling to grit blasting and these are not very high value added applications. When Copper Slag is produced granular form, behaviour of Granulated Copper Slag (GCS) seems to be similar to river sand and hence GSC was investigated as sand replacement material in the study presented in this paper. The test data shows that since the GCS has higher fineness modulus (indicating coarser average particle size), it may be preferable to avoid its use as the only fine aggregate in mortar and concrete mixes. Compared to the control mix, the Granulated Copper Slag based concrete showed an increase in the density up to 19%, whereas the workability was found to be often better for the mixes investigated in the present study. The highest compressive strength obtained was 52MPa (100% replacement), the corresponding strength for control concrete was 44MPa. However, with GCS as fine aggregate, the Ultra High Performance Concretes (UHPCs) can reach compressive strength of about 150 MPa. From the studies the recommended mix proportions obtained by absolute volume method for M25 and M40 grade concretes for different replacements (25-75%) of Granulated Copper Slag in fine aggregate are presented

Adaptive Optimizing Virtual Machine for Memory Management[ ]


The evaluation of the performance of Memory management is the main problem in any architecture because it reduces the efficacy of the system. Due to memory over commitment and hyperness in virtualized environment, it degrades the performance of the system. For evaluating the dynamic behavior of virtual memory that is a part of hyper memory that can be used to enhance the performance of the virtual memory, we have proposed an adaptive optimization technique in the virtual memory. The hyper memory has its virtual memory that can be used to process a large amount of data with at a very high speed. On run time data processing, the virtual memory can be attached with local memory. The proposed technique in the virtual memory can reduce the number of additional memories to evaluate the dynamic behavior of the system more concisely and more efficiently.

Analyzing User Behaviour of IPTV using Hidden Markov Model[ ]


Due to the innovative technologies in telecom industry and Internet Protocol TV (IPTV) became a reality. Many service providers across the globe are investing significantly to render Video on Demand (VoD) and other services through IPTV. Videos consume high bandwidth and they are to be multicast with acceptable service quality. Therefore it is indispensable for service providers to understand technicalities of IPTV and make necessary steps to have compatible infrastructure. Moreover IPTV user behaviour will have significant impact on the services rendered by the providers. Optimization of resources and services is possible provided the trends in the customer behaviour. As users of IPTV can have interactive usage of content delivered, their usage behaviour and events can affect quality of services. In this context, it is essential to characterize customer behaviour and analyze the same to have insights that can help service providers to have strategies to improve business by providing quality services to subscribers. In this paper our focus is on the usage behaviour of IPTV users besides their zapping patterns. We employed a stochastic model known as Hidden Markov Model (HMM) which has finite set of states and probability of state transmissions. Besides HMM has hidden states that capture user behaviour with respect to IPTV. The results of our research revealed the behaviour of users at different times and especially zapping rate.

Dissolved Gas Analysis of Transformer oil using Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System[ ]


In this paper, Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) has been developed for analysing various incipient faults occurring in oil immersed transformer. By using dissolved gas analysis (DGA) we can effectively monitor condition of oil immersed transformer. Various standards have been already developed for analysing faults on basis of dissolved gases in oil. But these standards fails in diagnosing some faulty conditions, therefore here ANFIS is implemented in accordance with DGA interpretation standard IEC-60599. Proposed model of diagnosing fault has been trained and tested by using sample of faulty transformers from various utilities and literature. From results obtained it can be seen that proposed system is more reliable than that of conventional standards.
