Opis:
The conventional control system is a controller that controls or regulates the dynamics of any other process. From time to time, a conventional control system may not behave appropriately online; this is because of many factors like a variation in the dynamics of the process itself, unexpected changes in the environment, or even undefined parameters of the system model. To overcome this problem, we have designed and implemented an adaptive controller. This paper discusses the design of a controller for a ball and beam system with Genetic Model Reference Adaptive Control (GMRAC) for an adaptive mechanism with the MIT rule. Parameter adjustment (selection) should occur using optimization methods to obtain an optimal performance, so the genetic algorithm (GA) will be used as an optimization method to obtain the optimum values for these parameters. The Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) controller will be used as it is one of the most popular controllers. The performance of the proposed controller with the ball and beam system will be carried out with MATLAB Simulink in order to evaluate its effectiveness. The results show satisfactory performance where the position of the ball tracks the desired model reference.

Opis:
A new tris-spiro-(3,4-dioxybenzaldehyde)cyclotriphosphazene [PNCHO] was synthesized from the condensation of hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene with 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde in the presence of strong base. Further reaction of the trialdehydic cyclotriphosphazene based molecules [PNCHO] with three different dianilines (benzidine, 4,4’-methylenedianiline and 4,4′-Sulfonyldianiline) resulted in creation of a new poly(tris-spiro-3,4-dioxbenzene)cyclotriphosphazenes with Schiff-base groups [PNSB1-3]. The structures of [PNCHO] and the polycyclotriphosphazenes-schiff base derivatives were characterized by means of FTIR, 1H, 13C NMR and C.H.N elemental analysis. Differential scanning calorimetery (DSC) revealed a relatively high glass transition temperature (135−175°C) of obtained polymers. Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) exhibited their good thermal stability (up to 375°C). The char yield was about 36–42% at 700°C. All polymers were self-extinguishable as the LOI (Limiting Oxygen Index) values were above 26% and this meets with the V-0 and V-1, classification (UL-94). No fumes, soot, or toxic gases emission were observed during burning. The polymers obtained can be used as environmentally friendly, flame-retardant materials.
Nowy tris-spiro-(3,4-dioksybenzaldehydo)cyklotrifosfazen [PNCHO] zsyntetyzowano w procesie kondensacji heksachlorocyklotrifosfazenu z 3,4-dihydroksybenzaldehydem w obecności silnej zasady. W wyniku reakcji trialdehydo cyklotrifosfazenów z trzema różnymi dianilinami (benzydyna, 4,4’-metylenodianilina i 4,4’-sulfonylodianilina) otrzymano poli(tris-spiro-3,4-dioksabenzeno)cyklotrifosfazeny z zasadami Schiffa [PNSB1-3]. PNCHO i pochodne policyklotrifosfazen-zasady Schiffa scharakteryzowano za pomocą analizy elementarnej (C, H, N), FTIR, 1H, 13C NMR. Metodą różnicowej kalorymetrii skaningowej (DSC) wykazano wysoką temperaturę zeszklenia (135−175°C) otrzymanych polimerów. Metodą analizy termograwimetrycznej (TGA) potwierdzono ich dobrą stabilność termiczną (do 375°C). Stopień zwęglenia po spaleniu wynosił w temp. 700°C ok. 36–42%. Wszystkie polimery były samogasnące, ponieważ wartości LOI (Limiting Oxygen Index) przekraczały 26%, co odpowiada klasie palności V-0 i V-1 (UL-94). Podczas spalania nie zaobserwowano emisji oparów, sadzy ani toksycznych gazów. Otrzymane polimery mogą znaleźć zastosowanie jako przyjazne dla środowiska materiały trudnopalne.

Opis:
Purpose: The influence of metal active gas welding variables, including current, wire feeding speed and gas flow rate on the ultimate tensile strength and critical buckling load of steel (St.24) and the optimized welding conditions were discussed. Design/methodology/approach: The experimental steps are firstly designing the experiments, secondly conducting the mechanical tests, thirdly analysing the results through Minitab 16 and finally determining the optimum welding parameters. Confirmation tests of the optimized variables were validated. Findings: ANOVA approach manifested that the significant effect of welding variable on the tensile strength was the gas flow rate, while the current was on the critical buckling load. The results are confirmed and given the optimum values. Research limitations/implications: The influence of MAG welding variables (current, wire feeding speed and gas flow rate) on the tensile and buckling strengths of steel will be investigated in order to avoid the failure of many welded assemblies in the structures due to the buckling, in addition to reduce the requirement of long time and high cost to produce such assemblies. Therefore, it is necessary to find a solution to encounter the difficulties in their welding process. Practical implications: The major challenge was how to reduce the time and cost beside gaining the optimum properties through the designed experiments. Originality/value: The results may be helpful to design any welded joints in machine frames, structural steel connections and crane structures at the optimum condition.

Opis:
The purpose of current study was to improve the solubility and dissolution profile of BCS class-II drug Glipizide using glutaric acid as a coformer via various cocrystalization techniques i.e., dry grinding, liquid assisted grinding, slurry and solvent evaporation. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) was performed to determine the interaction between components of glipizide-glutaric acid (GPZ-GLU) cocrystals. Powder X-ray Diffraction (PXRD) studies confirmed the crystalline nature of formulated cocrystals. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) revealed cylindrical to rectangular shape of cocrystals. Flow properties of GPZ-GLU cocrystals were evaluated by micromeritics analysis. Size and surface morphology was determined by zeta sizer analysis and optical microscopy. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Thermogravimetric (TGA) analysis were performed to determine the melting points as well as thermal stability of pure components and formulated GPZ-GLU cocrystals. In-vitro drug release studies were carried out using dissolution apparatus-II. GPZ-GLU cocrystals showed higher drug release at pH 6.8 as compared to pH 1.2. However, percent drug release of optimum formulations at pH 6.8 was determined as; 24%-92.2% (F3) and 12.0%-93.5% (F7). Solubility studies revealed improved solubility as compared to pure drug in water i.e., 53 folds and 54.27 folds from F3 and F7 cocrystals, respectively. Finally it was concluded that glutaric acid has improved the solubility and dissolution profile of glipizide. However, many cocrystal formers have been reported in literature that can be used to enhance the physicochemical properties as well as bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs via cocrystalization technique.

Opis:
Umbilical hernia is one of the most common problems in young calves. This problem occurs in dairy sector as well as in the local farmers. Present study was conducted to compare outcomes of four different techniques of herniorrhaphy. Twenty four young calves (n=24) were divided in 4 groups (A, B, C, and D) which underwent four different surgical techniques. Group A underwent vicryl plus suture material and pants-over-west technique, Group B underwent mesh application with Dexon suture material by using simple interrupted suture pattern, Group C underwent closed method with Nylon No. 3 suture material by using vertical mattress suture pattern and Group D underwent clamp application method with Silk No. 2 suture material by using simple interrupted suture pattern. The result showed that mesh application method was comparatively better with respect to feed intake, body weight gain and healing time. There was no reoccurrence with non-significant hematological changes (p≤0.05). It is concluded that mesh application method is safer than other three techniques and there are no systemic effects of this surgical intervention on calves’ health.

Measurement of capacitance – voltage characteristics at various etching time and current densities were used for calculated built in voltage and type of heterojunction. The built in voltage values were decreased with increasing etching time and current densities for both anisotype Al/PS/p-Si/Al heterojunction. These characteristics are interpreted by assuming the abrupt heterojunction model. The effect of different etching time and current densities on electrical properties of PS have been investigated.

Opis:
Cr(VI) adsorption was studied for abundantly available low-cost lignocellulosic adsorbents in Pakistan namely, tobacco stalks (TS), white cedar stem (WCS) and eucalyptus bark (EB). Several process variables like contact time, adsorbent dose, pH, metal concentration, particle size and temperature were optimized in batch mode. EB showed high Cr(VI) adsorption of 63.66% followed by WCS 62% and TS 57% at pH 2, which is higher than most of the reported literature. Langmuir isotherm (R2  = 0.999) was well fitted into the equilibrium Cr(VI) data of EB, suggesting homogeneous active sites and monolayer coverage of Cr(VI) onto the EB surface. Freundlich (R2  = 0.9982) isotherm was better fitted to the equilibrium data of TS and WCS, revealing the adsorption sites with heterogeneous energy distribution and multilayer Cr(VI) adsorption. Moreover, the Cr(VI) adsorption of studied adsorbents followed the pseudo-second order kinetic model. Thermodynamic properties were investigated in two temperature ranges, i.e., T1  (303–313 K) and T2  (313–323 K). TS and EB showed the exothermic at T1 and endothermic reactions at T2 with entropy controlled adsorption at the solid-liquid interface, and WCS exhibited an opposite thermal trend with decreasing disorderness at solid-liquid interface as temperature rises. Gibbs free energy (ΔG>0) confirmed the non-spontaneous adsorption process for all studied adsorbents.

Opis:
This work is devoted to modeling, analysis and simulation of a small-scale stand-alone wind/PV hybrid power generation system. Wind turbine is modelled and many parameters are taken into account, such as pitch angle, rotor diameter, wind speed, etc. The PV module is then modelled under nominal conditions such as cell temperature, solar radiation, etc. A MATLAB computer programs is developed to solve the mathematical model for small scale horizontal axis wind turbine and PV system. The experimental study has been conducted using a small scale wind turbine based on 500 W permanent magnet synchronous generator. A PV panel used has 36 monocrystalline silicon cells connected together in series having the ability to generate 50 W of rated power. Results show that the load consumes power from both systems but there is an excess and lack of power supply in some operating conditions, such as variation of solar radiation and wind speed.

Arsenic is one of the most harmful pollutants in groundwater. In this paper, the Nepali bio sand filter (BSF) was modified with different bio-adsorbents, and proved to be an efficient method for arsenic removal from groundwater. Three different bio-adsorbents were used to modify the Nepali BSF. Iron nails and biochar BSF, ~96% and ~93% arsenic removal was achieved, within the range of WHO guidelines. In iron nails, BSF and biochar BSF ~15 dm3∙h–1 arsenic content water was treated. In the other two BSFs, rice-husk and banana peel were used, the arsenic removal efficiency was ~83% of both BSFs. Furthermore, the efficiency of rice-husk and banana peel BSFs can be increased by increasing the surface area of the adsorbent or by reducing the flow rate.

Opis:
The rapid progress of microprocessor and communication technologies has made the distributed computing system economically attractive for many computer applications. One of the first problems encountered in the operation of a distributed system is the problem of allocating the tasks among the processing nodes. The task allocation problem is known to be computationally intractable for large task sets. In this paper, we consider the task allocation problem with the goal of maximizing reliability of heterogeneous distributed systems. After presenting a quantitative task allocation model, we present a least-cost branch-and-bound algorithm to find optimal task allocations. We also present two heuristic algorithms to obtain suboptimal allocations for realistic size large problems in a reasonable amount of computational time. Simulation was used to study the performance of the proposed algorithms for a large number of problems. Also, performance of the proposed algorithms has been compared with a well-known heuristics available in the literature.

Opis:
Carbon dioxide (CO2), Methane (CH4) are two most potent greenhouse gases and are major source of climate change. Human activities particularly fossil fuels burning have caused considerable increase in atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases. CO2 contributes 60% of anthropogenic greenhouse effect whereas CH4 contributes 15%. Ice core records also show that the concentrations of Carbon dioxide and methane have increased substantially. The emission of these gases alters the Earth’s energy budget and are drivers of climate change. In the present study, atmospheric concentration of CO2 and CH4 over Pakistan is measured using Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS). Time series and time averaged maps are prepared to measure the concentrations of CO2 and CH4. The results show considerable increase in concentration of Carbon dioxide and methane. The substantial increase in these concentrations can affect human health, earth radiative balance and can damage crops.

Opis:
Priority wise channelization of resources is the key to successful environmental management, especially when funds are limited. The study in hand has successfully developed an algorithmic criterion to compare hazardous effects of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) dumping sites quantitatively. It is a Multi Criteria Analysis (MCA) that has made use of the scaling function to normalize the data values, Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) for assigning weights to input parameters showing their relevant importance, and Weighted Linear Combination (WLC) for aggregating the normalized scores. Input parameters have been divided into three classes namely Resident’s Concerns, Groundwater Vulnerability and Surface Facilities. Remote Sensing data and GIS analysis were used to prepare most of the input data. To elaborate the idea, four dumpsites have been chosen as case study, namely Old-FSD, New-FSD, Saggian and Mahmood Booti. The comparison has been made first at class levels and then class scores have been aggregated into environmental normalized index for environmental impact ranking. The hierarchy of goodness found for the selected sites is New-FSD > Old-FSD > Mahmood Booti > Saggian with comparative scores of goodness to environment as 36.67, 28.43, 21.26 and 13.63 respectively. Flexibility of proposed model to adjust any number of classes and parameters in one class will be very helpful for developing world where availability of data is the biggest hurdle in research based environmental sustainability planning. The model can be run even without purchasing satellite data and GIS software, with little inaccuracy, using imagery and measurement tools provided by Google Earth.

Opis:
The perovskites XBiO3 (X = Al, Ga, In) have been studied in terms of mechanical, optical and thermoelectric behavior for energy harvesting application. Density functional theory is applied to study electronic, optical and thermoelectric properties of the studied materials. Structural, mechanical and thermodynamic stabilities are confirmed from the tolerance factor, Born mechanical stability and formation energy/specific heat capacity. Poisson and Plough ratios show the studied materials are ductile and have ability to withstand pressure. Band structure analysis shows the indirect band gap 3.0/2.1/1.0 eV for ABO/GBO/IBO. A complete set of optical spectra is reported by dielectric constants, refractive index, optical conduction, absorption of light and optical loss energy. Shifting of maximum absorption band to visible region increases the potential of perovskites XBiO3. Transport characteristics are also investigated by electrical conductivity, Seebeck coefficient and figure of merit.
