New Neuron Model For Simulating Rotating Electrical Machines And Load Forecasting Problems, D. K. Chaturvedi, P. S. Satsangi, P. K. Kalra
New Neuron Model For Simulating Rotating Electrical Machines And Load Forecasting Problems, D. K. Chaturvedi, P. S. Satsangi, P. K. Kalra
D. K. Chaturvedi Dr.
The existing neuron structure has an aggregation function (usually summation) and its transformation through non-linear filter or squashing or thresholding functions. Such structure of neural networks has a number of disadvantages like large number of neurons, hidden layers and huge training data required for complex function approximations. The present paper proposes new neuron models to overcome the above problems in the existing neural networks. The model has been developed and tested for modelling of electrical machines like DC motor, induction motor and synchronous generator and load forecasting problems using different new neuron models in the neural network like S neuron …
Determination Of Plate Source, Detector Separation From One Signal, Stephen D. Holland, Tadej Kosel, Richard Weaver, Wolfgang Sachse
Determination Of Plate Source, Detector Separation From One Signal, Stephen D. Holland, Tadej Kosel, Richard Weaver, Wolfgang Sachse
Stephen D. Holland
We address the problem of locating a transient source, such as an acoustic emission source, in a plate. We apply time-frequency analysis to the signals detected at a receiver. These highly dispersive and complex waveforms are measured for source-receiver separations ranging from 40 to 180 plate thicknesses and at frequencies such that ten to twenty Rayleigh-Lamb branches are included. Re-assigned, smoothed, pseudo-Wigner-Ville distributions are generated that exhibit the expected sharp ridges in the time-frequency plane, lying along the predicted frequency-time-of-arrival relations. The source-receiver separation can be determined from such plots.

Load Frequency Control: A Generalized Neural Network Approach, D. K. Chaturvedi, P. S. Satsangi, P. K. Kalra
D. K. Chaturvedi Dr.
Variation in load frequency is an index for normal operation of power systems. When load perturbation takes place anywhere in any area of the system, it will affect the frequency at other areas also. To control load frequency of power systems various controllers are used in different areas. but due to non-linearities in the system components and alternators, these controllers cannot control the frequency quickly and efficiently. Simple neural networks which are in common use at present have various drawbacks like large training time, requirement of large number of neurons, etc. The present work deals with the developmetn of a …

Design Of An Instrumentation System To Record Distribution Profile Of Snow Layer Temperature For Modelling Of Snow Avalanche Forecast, Raman Attri
Raman K. Attri
The measurement of snow hydrological parameters is extremely important in developing a model for the predication of Snow avalanche as well as Snowmelt water in the rivers. When direct measurement of these parameters is practically difficult, its dependence on snow temperature is used to develop snow cover models. A robust model for avalanche forecasting requires a sophisticated instrumentation system which can measure the required temperature parameters at right data points within snow pack. A Snow Temperature Profile Sensing System along with Surface temperature Sensor has been designed to measure Snow temperature gradient, temperature distributions, and average temperature of snow pack, …
Design Strategy Of Snow Depth Sensor Based On Ultrasonic Pulse-Transit Technique For Remote Measurement Of Snow Cover Thickness, Raman Attri
Raman K. Attri
Snow cover thickness is one of the important parameter used in forecasting models for snow-melt, snow run-off water, snow avalanche release and other snow hydrological changes. Ultrasonic pulse transit method is being used for such applications universally. Reflected echo coming after reflection from highly irregular and non-smooth porous surface, is very low amplitude noise ridden signal. This received echo signal has to be conditioned to remove signal and processed to increase its amplitude to make it sufficiently detectable and to increase the probability of receiving back the reflected echo. A special design of Snow Depth Sensor based on Ultrasonic Pulse …

Implementation Of Linear Array Of Ultrasonic Transmitter-Receiver Transducers For Detection Of Non-Smooth Porous Surface, Raman K. Attri, Swaranjit Singh
Raman K. Attri
Level measurements, thickness measurement or remote surface detection using ultrasonic pulse transit method require that the target surface be at 90O to the incident beam so that reflected beam comes back at 180O angel to effectively use this method. This is perfectly true in case of flat, solid surface at right angle to the incident beam. But surface irregularities of a porous, non-smooth, uneven material such as snow cause penetration of incident wave into the surface, absorption of the incident energy, scatter of energy in many directions and further attenuation of reflected signal making it difficult to detect the reflected …

Particle Pressure And Marginal Stability Limits For A Homogeneous Monodisperse Gas-Fluidized Bed: Kinetic Theory And Numerical Simulations, Ashok S. Sangani, Donald L. Koch
Particle Pressure And Marginal Stability Limits For A Homogeneous Monodisperse Gas-Fluidized Bed: Kinetic Theory And Numerical Simulations, Ashok S. Sangani, Donald L. Koch
Ashok S. Sangani
A linear stability analysis is performed for the homogeneous state of a monodisperse gas-fluidized bed of spherical particles undergoing hydrodynamic interactions and solid-body collisions at small particle Reynolds number and finite Stokes number. A prerequisite for the stability analysis is the determination of the particle velocity variance which controls the particle-phase pressure. In the absence of an imposed shear, this velocity variance arises solely due to the hydrodynamic interactions among the particles. Since the uniform state of these suspensions is unstable over a wide range of values of particle volume fraction &phgr; and Stokes number St, full dynamic simulations cannot …
Probabilistic Crowding: Deterministic Crowding With Probabilistic Replacement, Ole J. Mengshoel, David E. Goldberg
Probabilistic Crowding: Deterministic Crowding With Probabilistic Replacement, Ole J. Mengshoel, David E. Goldberg
Ole J Mengshoel
This paper presents a novel niching algorithm, probabilistic crowding. Like its predecessor deterministic crowding, probabilistic crowding is fast, simple, and requires no parameters beyond that of the classical GA. In probabilistic crowding, subpopulations are maintained reliably, and we analyze and predict how this maintenance takes place.
This paper also identifies probabilistic crowding as a member of a family of algorithms, which we call integrated tournament algorithms. Integrated tournament algorithms also include deterministic crowding, restricted tournament selection, elitist recombination, parallel recombinative simulated annealing, the Metropolis algorithm, and simulated annealing.

Pirolityczne Metody Utylizacji Odpadów Niebezpiecznych - Przykładowe Rozwiązania I Emisja Zanieczyszczeń, Robert Oleniacz
Robert Oleniacz
The paper presents the pyrolysis and gasification processes of organic matter and the main directions of their use for the thermal disposal of hazardous waste. Used for this purpose the basic technical solutions are discussed with regard to existing and new technologies. Given the fact that the pyrolytic methods in Poland were primarily used for the incineration of medical waste, most attention was paid to a facility designated for such waste disposal. The problem of air pollutant emissions from this type of installation and some operating guidelines was also presented on the basis of the literature analyses and own research. …

Solid-Liquid Phase Equilibrium For Binary Lennard-Jones Mixtures, Monica R. Hitchcock, Carol K. Hall
Solid-Liquid Phase Equilibrium For Binary Lennard-Jones Mixtures, Monica R. Hitchcock, Carol K. Hall
Monica H. Lamm
Solid-liquid phase diagrams are calculated for binary mixtures of Lennard-Jones spheres using Monte Carlo simulation and the Gibbs-Duhem integration technique of Kofke. We calculate solid-liquid phase diagrams for the model Lennard-Jones mixtures: argon-methane, krypton-methane, and argon-krypton, and compare our simulation results with experimental data and with Cottin and Monson's recent cell theory predictions. The Lennard-Jones model simulation results and the cell theory predictions show qualitative agreement with the experimental phase diagrams. One of the mixtures, argon-krypton, has a different phase diagram than its hard-sphere counterpart, suggesting that attractive interactions are an important consideration in determining solid-liquid phase behavior. We then …

Purification Et Propriétés Physico-Chimiques Des Enzymes De Curculigo Pilosa, Gladiolus Klattianus Et Boscia Senegalensis Catalysant L'Hydrolyse Des Polysaccharides (Amidon Et Béta-Glucanes), Mamoudou H. Dicko Prof.
Pr. Mamoudou H. DICKO, PhD
The objective of this study was the research of novel and inexpensive sources of polysaccharides degrading enzymes such as amylases and glucanases from local plants in order to justify their biotechnological applications. The isolation of two l3-amylases and an endo-1,3-ß-D-glucanase was reached using common protein purification methods such as buffer extraction, ammonium sulfate fractionation, ionexchange and gel filtration chromatographies. The methods used were simple and easily reproducible, suggesting the possibilfty of large-scale production. ln the crude extract of Curculigo pilosa tuber, only ß-amylase was detected as starch degrading enzyme and its activity was approximately 282 Uig of fresh material. The …

Gsis: A Conceptual Model For Web-Based Integration Of Information Technology With Geo-Scientific Instrumentation, Raman Attri
Raman K. Attri
Since a long time leading organisations have been advocating the need of implementation of IT in a centralised manner on the distributed geological data monitoring centres. In the era of IT, it is highly important to access, share and analyse related data on a common platform for fast retrieval of information in centralised as well as in distributed mode. In this article a concept to integrate Geo-Scientific Instrumentation systems to Information Technology has been highlighted. The vision to create a Geo-Scientific Information System (GSIS) would be an approach where a centralised web-enabled database of the data acquired & transmitted by …

Novel One-Phase Synthesis Of Thiol-Functionalized Gold, Palladium, And Iridium Nanoparticles Using Superhydride, Chanel K. Yee, Rainer Jordan, Abraham Ulman, Henry White, Alexander H. King, Miriam Rafailovich, Jonathan Sokolov
Alexander H. King
A new, facile, general one-phase synthesis for thiol-functionalized gold, palladium, and iridium nanoparticles, using tetrahydrofuran (THF) as the solvent and lithium triethylborohydride (Superhydride) as the reducing agent, is presented. For octadecanethiol-functionalized gold (Au/ODT) nanoparticles, HRTEM of drop-cast particle-films revealed the formation of spherical particles of d = 4 ± 0.3 nm average size. Electron diffraction shows fcc packing arrangement, similar to that of bulk gold. The crystalline gold cores are surrounded with closely packed n-alkyl chains mainly in an all-trans conformation, adopting orthorhombic packing as confirmed by FTIR spectroscopy. Particles are arranged in a discrete solidlike assembly with a correlation …

Incommensurate And Commensurate Antiferromagnetic Spin Fluctuations In Cr And Cr Alloys From Ab Initio Dynamical Spin Susceptibility Calculations, Duane D. Johnson, J. Pulter, B. Ginatempo, E. Bruno, J. B. Staunton
Duane D. Johnson
A scheme for making ab initio calculations of the dynamic paramagnetic spin susceptibilities of solids at finite temperatures is described. It is based on time-dependent density functional theory and employs an electronic multiple scattering formalism. Incommensurate and commensurate antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations in paramagnetic Cr and compositionally disordered Cr95V5 and Cr95Re5 alloys are studied together with the connection with the nesting of their Fermi surfaces. We find that the spin fluctuations can be described rather simply in terms of an overdamped oscillator model. Good agreement with inelastic neutron scattering data is obtained.
