“New” Subjects In Mechatronics Management Education, Peter Kopacek Nov 2015

“New” Subjects In Mechatronics Management Education, Peter Kopacek

UBT International Conference

Process – and manufacturing automation as well as robotics are currently one of the fast growing fields in automation. Advanced process control, cyber-physical systems, industry 4.0 and “advanced robots” are no longer a headline. They are in realization. As a consequence of these developments new social, ethical and human questions appear. Therefore this contribution is a first report about the continuous “modernization” of the Mechatronics Management BSc and MSc programs which are successful running at UBT. Both programs were developed in the framework of two TEMPUS projects from an international consortium from 2006 to 2009. Since that time new “buzzwords” …


Database For Online Accreditation Process In Directorate For Accreditation Of Kosovo (Dak-Mis), Ibush Luzha Nov 2015

Database For Online Accreditation Process In Directorate For Accreditation Of Kosovo (Dak-Mis), Ibush Luzha

UBT International Conference

Directorate for Accreditation of Kosovo (DAK) is only National Accreditation Body in Republic of Kosovo, recognized by Government, which in accordance with international standards, assesses technical competences of the Conformity Assessment Bodies (CAB)s that deal with activities such as: testing, calibration, certification and inspection both in public and private sector. Till now application for accreditation and all other procedures for accreditation of CABs are carried out so that all the documents of the application and the receipt of the certificate of accreditation are conducted in the offices of DAK. By Management Information System (MIS), database of DAK (DAK-MIS), customers will …


Optimal Control Of Dc Motors Using Pso Algorithm For Tuning Pid Controller, Arnisa Myrtellari, Petrika Marango, Margarita Gjonaj Nov 2015

Optimal Control Of Dc Motors Using Pso Algorithm For Tuning Pid Controller, Arnisa Myrtellari, Petrika Marango, Margarita Gjonaj

UBT International Conference

The DC motors are widely used in the mechanisms that require control of speed. Different speed can be obtained by changing the field voltage and the armature voltage. The classic PID controllers are widely used in industrial process for speed control. But they aren’t suitable for high performance cases, because of the low robustness of PID controller. So many researchers have been studying various new control techniques in order to improve the system performance and tuning PID controllers. This paper presents particle swarm optimization (PSO) method for determining the optimal PID controller parameters to find the optimal parameters of DC …


Noise Reduction In Quadcopter Accelerometer And Gyroscope Measurements Based On Kalman Filter, Bertan Karahoda, Xhemajl Mehmeti, Uran Cabra Nov 2015

Noise Reduction In Quadcopter Accelerometer And Gyroscope Measurements Based On Kalman Filter, Bertan Karahoda, Xhemajl Mehmeti, Uran Cabra

UBT International Conference

The Accelerometer and Gyroscope modules used for measuring the orientation of the quadcopter usually generate noisy signals which directly affect the control strategies. The high speed motors used in quadcopters cause high noise levels which makes the real time control almost impossible. In this work the Kalman filter is applied to the noisy measurements obtained from accelerometer and gyroscope modules. The measurements are conducted for two cases: Motors stopped, and Motors activated at high speed. The Kalman filtering is applied separately for each measurement and the obtained results show noticeable improvement in noise level for two cases. The joint implementation …


Planning, Development And Application Of Mechatronics Systems As Students Work, Muzafer Shala, Valmir Hoxha Nov 2015

Planning, Development And Application Of Mechatronics Systems As Students Work, Muzafer Shala, Valmir Hoxha

UBT International Conference

In Kosovo universities in general there is a lack of students practical work, this fact is one of the reasons why in Kosovo are no sufficient number of professionals to fill the market needs. The aim of this work is to go through the steps of conceptualisation, development and application of a Mechatronics Systems with students. Also in this project students work on all the phases of the work which we consider to be of great benefit. The work was organised as it would be on a real life company, students were split on groups and the groups worked in …
