Hybrid Approach For Site Selection Using Impact Assessment And Principal Component Analysis, Ugandhar Reddy Kondamadugula Jan 2009

Hybrid Approach For Site Selection Using Impact Assessment And Principal Component Analysis, Ugandhar Reddy Kondamadugula

Open Access Theses & Dissertations

Principle component analysis (PCA) is used to analyze week data of emission of particulate material from the Residential community. In this Thesis we selected five sites maps where sensors are arranged to collect particulate materials PM0.25, PM 10.Impact Assessment on the site areas are done in the first case,the results Impact Assessment on the site shows that the Global warming potential is really high at the site when the analysis is run for hundred years the Global warming potential has a very high impact on Environment leading to various health hazards. Secondly Principal Component Analysis is used to find out …


Electric Power Distribution Optimization Using Evolutionary Algorithms, Sowmya Parimi Jan 2009

Electric Power Distribution Optimization Using Evolutionary Algorithms, Sowmya Parimi

Open Access Theses & Dissertations

In the present research, a new evolutionary algorithm is developed to solve the component allocation problem in electricity distribution systems. The problem addresses the upgrade/design of an electricity distribution system with the objective of minimizing expected system downtime subject to cost and repair time constraints. The algorithm is tested on the Dual Element Spot Network (DESN) configuration which is one of the most commonly used configurations by the power industry. This algorithm is demonstrated with two examples.


Multiple Objective Optimization Of Performance Based Logistics, Delia Villanueva Jan 2009

Multiple Objective Optimization Of Performance Based Logistics, Delia Villanueva

Open Access Theses & Dissertations

This thesis presents a new Performance Based Logistics optimization model. Performance Based Logistics (PBL) is becoming increasingly important for manufacturers in mission critical environments that need to provide ultimate product availability at the lowest cost and with the highest level of customer satisfaction. The U.S. Department of Defense has mandated that Performance Based Logistics programs be adopted by its major weapon systems and equipment suppliers, is one of the newest support strategies to improve the weapon system readiness. This work presents a new multiple objective evolutionary approach that simultaneously optimizes objectives such as Reliability, Maintainability and Total Cost for Ownership. …


E-Quality Control: A Support Vector Machines Approach, Kalyan Reddy Aleti Jan 2008

E-Quality Control: A Support Vector Machines Approach, Kalyan Reddy Aleti

Open Access Theses & Dissertations

The web-enabled quality control process presents many benefits to industry, such as universal access, remote control capability, and integration of production equipment into information networks for improved efficiency. This capability has a great potential, since engineers can access and control the equipment anytime, anywhere as the design stages evolve. In this context, this work uses innovative methods in remote part tracking and quality control with the aid of the modern equipment and application of Support Vector machine learning approach to predict the outcome of the quality control process. The classifier equations are built on the data obtained from the experiments …
