Meteorological Sensors synergy for diagnosis of monsoon precipitating clouds over Kadapa, Semi-arid region of India[Full-Text ] N.P.Amrutha Kumari, Hemalatha, S.Balaji Kumar, J.Jayalakshmi, R.Mastanaiah, T.R.Mahesh, S.B.Surendra Prasad, Md Waaiz, D.Punyaseshudu and K. Krishna ReddyLong-term field experiment is an important approach to obtain microphysical information on monsoonal precipitating clouds in the semi-arid region, Kadapa (14.47°N; 78.82°E). A Micro Rain Radar (MRR), a PARSIVEL (PSD) Disdrometer have been deployed in the premises of Semi-arid-zonal Atmospheric Research Centre (SARC), Yogi Vemana University, Kadapa to study the characterization of tropical rainfall. Rain drop size distribution (DSD) and rain rate are obtained at the surface from the PSD data and at different heights from the MRR. And also, active radar observations from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Precipitation Radar provide high resolution satellite based rainfall estimates. To understand these measurements, it would be needed to compare with ground-based measurements and also be awared of the seasonal dependance of the satellite measurements. From 1 June 2009 to 31 July 2010, the monsoon experiment was carried out to understand performance of MRR and PSD with different monsoon DSD and vertical structure of precipitating clouds. The data from the disdrometer and that from micro rain radar corresponding to a height of 35 metre from the surface are taken here for comparison with the TRMM data. TRMM rain rate is available as 3 hourly data over a 0.25o X 0.25o grid. The correlation of the three hourly rainfall data between TRMM and PSDand TRMM and MRR have been found to be significant. For the southwest and the northeast monsoon periods, the correlation between the data from the TRMM and disdrometer is 0.9 and 0.8, respectively. The observational results indicate that MRR and PSD are reliable instruments for microphysical properties of monsoon precipitating clouds.

Development and Performance Evaluation of a Manually Operated Hydraulic Briquetting Machine[Full-Text ] Mambo Wilson, Kamugasha Dick , Adimo Ochieng, Okwalinga David Bruno, Namagembe FlaviaImported briquette machines are expensive, need technical expertise, lack spare parts, and require electricity for operation. The aim of this study is to develop a manually operated hydraulic briquette press, evaluate its performance and assess the physical properties of the briquettes produced. The mould comprised of 100 cylinders having dimensions of 59 mm diameter, and 150 mm height. A hydraulic jack of 50 Tons capacity was selected to exert the compressive force required by the pistons to compact biomass into briquettes. Maize cobs were carbonized as raw material for the purpose of machine testing. Char particles of less than 6 mm and 10% cassava binder ratio was used. Compressed density, production capacity of the machine, machine efficiency, relaxed density, relaxation ratio, moisture content, and chartered index were determined. The average value of production capacity was 122.928 kg/hr, machine efficiency was100%, compressed density was 624.236 kg/m3, relaxed density was 350.093 kg/m3, relaxation ratio was 1.783, moisture content was 13.562% , and shatter index was 98.1464%. The machine therefore attained higher production capacity and all briquettes were free of damage after ejection. The briquettes produced had sufficient density for storage and transportation. The high chartered index of briquettes implies that they were strong enough and durable to withstand handling.

TREATMENT AND DYSLIPIDEMIA OF PATIENTS WITH DIABETES MELLITUS (DM) AND CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES[Full-Text ] Adnan Bozalija, Sadi Bexheti, Dorentina Bexheti ,Lutfi ZylbeariCardiovascular disease (CVD) is a primary cause of morbidity and mortality among patients with hyperglycemia or type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) despite the availability of effective therapies to treat major risk factors such as elevated blood pressure and cholesterol levels. The most common lipid pattern in patients with DM, hypertension, and/or the metabolic syndrome includes hypertriglyceridemia, increased concentrations of small dense low-density lipoprotein particles, low levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-ch, increased remnant lipoproteins, and elevated apolipoprotein-B concentrations. This profile of mixed dyslipidemia significantly increases risk for all forms of atherosclerotic disease, including cardiovascular disease (CVD).The burgeoning prevalence of insulin resistance throughout the world is greatly increasing the incidence of mixed dyslipidemia.

Design of a Low cost Non Electrical Type Baby Incubator for Developing Country[Full-Text ] Shovasis Kumar Biswas, Mohammad Mahmudul Alam Mia, Rashedul Islam, Surajit SinhaA large number of infants in the developing world die due to prematurity complications arising due to non availability of Infant Incubators. These deaths are often caused due to heat loss and dehydration as the prematurely born babies cannot regulate the temperature as the temperature of the environment changes, this can be prevented by medical care with the help of an incubator. Unfortunately, this infant incubator is relatively expensive and for this reason many health care centers especially at rural areas of developing countries like Bangladesh can’t afford to buy. The other problem is that most incubators run on electricity, therefore countries like ours where there is an acute shortage of electricity, this existing expensive baby incubator is of no use. The major challenge, therefore, has been to design a low-cost incubator that will run without the use of electricity. The hot water is used as a prospective non-electric heating source in the proposed incubator. The humidity level at 70% RH and above is also maintained non-electrically. In the proposed incubator system special type of dust and air particulate masks are placed at the windows of the incubator to remove dust and air particulate. We have shown that a 12v 100 Ah standard battery available in the market can supply 20 days for sensors and fan drive system. In designing the incubator we tried to reduce the cost by using locally available materials. We believe that our proposed non electrical type infant incubator will be a great help in reducing the death of premature babies at rural areas in Bangladesh where portability, cost and electricity are primary concerns.

Investigating Ship Building Supply and Demand Forecasting Trends - Overview[Full-Text ] Akdemir, B, Ziarati M, Stockton, D and Khalil, RThe huge importance of the maritime shipping industry to the global economy was confirmed by the United Nations specialised agency for maritime affairs, the International Maritime Organization, which reported that the world has changed to the point where almost no nation can be fully self-sufficient and that the global economy simply could not function without a vibrant shipping industry. Of all the world’s great industries, shipping is perhaps not only the most international, but also it is the one that has considerable effect on most of the world’s population. The shipping industry has a major effect on the transportation of goods, intercontinental trade of raw materials, import and export of food, fuels and manufactured goods. Production of goods increasingly takes place in more than one country and this is one of the main reasons for the growth of seaborne cargo in recent decades. Increasingly goods are often partly made in one country, processed in another and finalised or assembled in a third with components coming from all over the world. This globalisation has given the shipping industry a major responsibility since it has a significant effect on the end price of all goods it transports. Having forecasting information about how many ships of different types are required, and when, would have a substantial positive impact on efforts to reduce the ever increasing costs of sea transportation. Here, cost reduction impact would be achieved by better matching the type of ship, and its operating costs to the type and volume of goods requiring transportation. The main aim of this research illustrated in this paper was to develop an accurate and reliable method of forecasting supply for various types of ships. To achieve this aim several key questions were identified leading to a number of objectives which were transformed into a set of tasks. A number of variables were identified that needed to be predicted in terms of the features of types of vessels involved and the goods they transport. Here the main variables to be analysed had to be identified along with their effects on the supply and/or demand for given types of vessels. The volatile nature of shipping was considered and required the intended forecasting model to be able to monitor trends on a regular basis and to sense sudden changes in demand or changes which may have an impact on the reliability of the accuracy of the predicted value. The research identified the most effective forecasting technique which was the neural network model developed for this work. Additionally, the work here identified the relationships between supply and demand for shipping with a view to exploring the nature and the strengths of these relationships. It was noted that there is a very strong relationship between supply and demand hence providing a means of accurately estimating the demand values from predicted supply values for various types of ships.

Conductivity spectra analysis behaviour of conductive PPy on PVC/PMMA composites[Full-Text ] F.S. Shokr and S.A. Al-GahtaniA series of thin films from poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) – poly (Methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) composites with different amounts of Polypyrrole (PPy) / carbon nano-particles were prepared. Charge transport properties, such as the frequency dependent conductance, of polymer matrix–conductive filler particles composites, are investigated. In the present study Ac conductivity is examined with varying parameters, the filler content and the frequency in the case of ac field. The examined systems, though they are characterized as dielectrics, exhibit considerable conductivity, which alters by several orders of magnitude with frequency. The frequency dependence of conductivity gives evidence for the charge carriers transport mechanism via the occurred agreement of experimental results with the employed QML model. The ac conductivity increases as with the incorporation of conductive PPy and the proposed model by Tsangaris et al fit well the experimental values more closely for low PPy contents.

Control of IPMSM with Two-level Diode Clamped Inverter for Electric Traction[Full-Text ] G Sree Lakshmi, K NavyaThis paper presents the simulation and analysis of Field Oriented Control (FOC) of two-level diode-clamped inverter fed Inte-rior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (IPMSM) Drive for Electric Traction (ET) Application using various Modulation Techniques. The Electric Traction drives require high voltage operation which can be achieved by using Multilevel Inverters. By using series of power semiconductor switches with several low voltage DC sources one can achieve higher power output by synthesizing a staircase voltage waveform, which can be efficiently applied for Traction Drives. The output voltage is smoother and also eliminates the need of transformer in Electric Traction. The modulation techniques used are Sine Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM), Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) and Carrier Based Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (CBSVPWM). An efficient and fast controller such as FOC is used to control torque of an IPMSM drive. The performance analysis of IPMSM drive for Electric Traction is analyzed with three different modulation techniques for different load variations.

Numerical simulation of the discrete equilibrium solutions of Boltzmann equation on a N-layer loosely coupled hexagonal grid[Full-Text ] Wahida Zaman LoskorWe perform numerical simulation of the discrete equilibrium solutions (equilibria) of Boltzmann equation on a N-layer loosely coupled hexagonal grid. The equilibria of the Boltzmann equation can be expressed in terms of four parameters characte-rizing mass, -momenta and kinetic energy. The computation of discrete equilibria of the Boltzmann equation is effected by varying temperature and bulk-velocity. The temperature depends on the parameter which is characterizing kinetic energy. The bulk-velocity depends on the parameter which are characterizing momenta and as well.

WDM Systems Confidentiality: A Survey[Full-Text ] Anita Antwiwaa, Anil Kumar and A. K JaiswalThe evolution of novel telecommunication technologies has boosted the appetite of already data hungry customers to increase their search for information to satisfy their hunger. This has called for some group of people to illegally access information which does not belongs to them. This has caused a lot of losses to the telecommunication companies and thereby putting innocent customers at risk. Fiber communication which is termed as secured has its own vulnerabilities. The internet during its development did not keep strong security in mind. Over 150000 computers were victims to the so called code red attack in only 14 hours period on the 9/11/2001 attack. Moreover, 86000 computers were affected in the NIMDA attack. There is therefore a need to provide security mechanism for the physical layer of an optical network. Eavesdropping, interception, jamming, physical infra-structure attack, among others are some of the attacks that affects the optical network. The way an optical network is implemented determines the type of threat which can affect the network. However, threats are generalized into four. If an unauthorized person tries to listen to the conversation which intend puts the confidentiality of the communication at risk, then the attack is known as confidentiality attack. An unauthorized person might also try to impersonate and communicate as an authorized user and this is also known as authentication attack. The unauthorized user manipulate or alters the communication which puts the integrity of the communication at risk and this is termed as integrity attack. Finally, there is a situation whereby the unauthorized user observes the communication and analyze the traffic as well and this is known as Privacy attack. This work will review the confidentiality issues of WDM optical systems and propose some future security required for optical network.

Moment Invariants-Based Face Recognition[Full-Text ] Mohammed Ahmed Ahmed RefaeyFace detection and recognition is a hot research area for more than a decade ago as they play an important role in many applications like identity resolve, security, personalization and so many others. Usually the detection process is isolated from the recognition stage. In this paper, the role of moment invariants is investigated regarding both face detection and face recognition and the focus will be on face recognition. The image or a window of an image is first converted to grey scale image. Then, a seven moment invariants are calculated for each window. This is followed by feature vector calculation for each window of interest. The classifier is then employed to recognize the under-check face/window. These moment invariants are invariant to scale change, rotation transformation, mirroring/pose reverse, and also invariant to translation. These characteristics proof that the proposed features of moment invariants are strong in object detection and recognition in general and in face detection and recognition, this proof is validated through the explained results in this work. The Yale face dataset is used to show the results of the proposed method.

Impact of Virtualized Management on Industrial Sector[Full-Text ] Md Badiuzzaman, Md RafiquzzamanThe term “Virtual” indicates something not exists in real world in physically but anyhow it fulfills the requirements of real things. In general, it distinguishes something that is merely conceptual from something that has physical reality. Using computing technology a system could be developed as alternate of a practical which is known as virtual system. We can find lot of things changed now into virtual world. Playing games using a computer was a passion but now we can see that most of kids made computer as their playground. Once people used internet chat rooms only to pass messages but now online messaging, who thought that in this are this online messaging system will be a strong alternative of verbal communication. The society turned into virtual society which is known to us social media. Virtual reality is no more imagination now, it exists now a days and it is becoming the alternative or real things. Similarly virtual system introduced into industrial management gradually when the management system was being done by computerized system. Virtual office system and paperless office system is being used vastly inside industrial management. In this paper we pull out the utility and advantage of virtualization of management in industrial sector. We also got some negative impact of virtualized management. In some aspect, virtualization of management has some good point that it replacing extra human resources, eliminating hardware, tools, physical space and geographical barrier which results lower cost in industrial management. Due to virtual management the processing system of management became fast which increase the management efficiency. We studied on time study after applying virtual management inside industries. In the other hand, virtualization of management causing some bad impact like unemployment, lack of verbal communication, lack of social and inter employee bond. We mentioned the current status of virtualization in industrial management and what would be in future. This paper will revealed the scenario of virtualization inside industrial management.

Object Evidence Instance Feature Mapping Using Support Vector Machine[Full-Text ] Mohammed Alghamdi, Osama Younis, FadiFouzThis is the matter of fact that Multiple Instance Learning (MIL) has established itself as a potential technique for Multimedia Data Mining applications and various other classification and prediction problem. As per our till date knowledge most of the researches have employed conventional MIL schemes for mining and classification. Still, majority of researchers could not address the key issue of ambiguity in the prime hypothesis of MIL that a bag having at least one Positive Instance would be a labelled as Positive Bag, where the classification has to be done. But this hypothesis raises the question of ambiguity, because a positive bag having single positive instance might be remaining as negative, and hence the classification and prediction would be either computationally very complex and would be suffering from classification accuracy issues. In this research work a highly robust Object Evidence Instance Feature Mapping Using Support Vector Machine scheme has been proposed that intends to provide much efficient classification and prediction for multimedia data mining applications.

Real- time data of construction projects using google maps and management techniques for data analysis and AI based Chatbot[Full-Text ] Nikhil GehlotReal-time data analysis is a big data trend that will increase substantially and have a big impact in and out of any organisation. Having a lot of data from the initiation to the execution and till completion is one thing, being able to store it, analyse it and visualise it in a real time is a whole new challenge. This paper is about how to put the data of the live construction projects using the google maps or mapbox application and how this data can be store, analyse and used for documentation, business purposes and also analysing the management work during the execution of project using the technology like AI Chatbot. The real time data and management work on the field can be used for education purpose in all the universities all around the world via internet and virtual reality.The GPS coordinates can be used to locate the project details and with the help cloud-based management application and offline approach the other data can be collected and stored on server.
