This paper deals with artificial neural network approach for automatic detection of severity level of stator winding fault in induction motor. The problem is faced through modelling and simulation of induction motor with inter coil shorting in stator winding. The sum of the absolute values of difference in the peak values of phase currents from each half cycle has been chosen as the main input to the classifier. Sample values from workspace of Simulink model, which are verified with experiment setup practically, have been imported to neural network architecture. Consideration of a single input extracted from time domain simplifies and advances the fault detection technique. The output of the feed forward back propagation neural network classifies the short circuit fault level of the stator winding.

As contemporary men's clothing is becoming slimmer, people consider it important not only the existing simple design, but also intricate design and its fitness that can complement one's body. Therefore, in this study, we reproduced Men's wear fabrication process with 3D process. As a result, it was well received, as it can check the fitness, and allows modifying the design and mixing different texture easily.

In this paper, a real time implementation of selective harmonic elimination pulse width modulation (SHEPWM) using Real Coded Genetic Algorithm (RGA), Particle Swarm Optimization technique (PSO) and a new technique known as Linearization Method (LM) for Single Phase Matrix Converter (SPMC) is designed and discussed. In the proposed technique, the switching frequency is fixed and the optimum switching angles are obtained using simple mathematical calculations. A MATLAB simulation was carried out, and FFT analysis of the simulated output voltage waveform confirms the effectiveness of the proposed method. An experimental setup was also developed, and the switching angles and firing pulses are generated using Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) processor. The proposed method proves that it is much applicable in the industrial applications by virtue of its suitability in real time applications.

A discrete controller is designed for low power dc-dc switched mode power supplies. The approach is based on time domain and the control loop continuously and concurrently tunes the compensator parameters to meet the converter specifications. A digital state feedback control combined with the load estimator provides a complete compensation, which further improves the dynamic performance of the closed loop system. Simulation of digitally controlled Buck converter is performed with MATLAB/Simulink. Experimental results are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the controller using LabVIEW with a data acquisition card (model DAQ Pad - 6009).

The complex analysis of male reproductive system of vines and fruit-tyees growing in zone of the Armenian Nuclear Power Plant (ANPP) is realized. The obtained data demonstrate that the homogeneous pollen with high fertility and optimal morphometric parameters in all variants is formed. The obtained results demonstrate that there is no one-sided effect of ANPP on the development and formation of investigated male generative system of vines and fruit trees. Thus, on the base of obtained results we can't confirm its deleterious effect on the environment.

A semi-empirical approach to model the temperature effects on I-V characteristics of Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistors (CNTFETs) is proposed. The model includes two thermal parameters describing CNTFET behaviour in terms of saturation drain current and threshold voltage, whose values are extracted from the simulated and trans-characteristics of the device in different temperature conditions. Our results are compared with those of a numerical model online available, obtaining I-V characteristics comparable but with a lower CPU calculation time.

It is well known that prepartum sows have an innate motivation to build a nest before parturition. Under commercial conditions, however, the farrowing crate, which is widely used in modern pig husbandry, inhibits this innate behaviour through the lack of space, materials, or both. Thus, restriction of nest-building behaviour could generate increased stress, resulting in a decrease in maternal endogenous hormones. Hence, it could lead to detrimental effects on farrowing and lactating performance. Here we review interactions between prepartum nest-building behaviour, stress and maternal endogenous hormone levels, and discuss their effects on parturition, lactation, and welfare of sows and offspring.

Long-lived Small Modular Reactors are being promoted as an innovative way of catering to emerging markets and isolated regions. They can be operated continuously for decades without requiring additional fuel. A novel configuration of long-lived reactor core employs a mixed neutron spectrum, providing an improvement in nonproliferation metrics and in safety characteristics. Starting with a base sodium reactor design, moderating material is inserted in outer core assemblies to modify the fast spectrum. The assemblies are shuffled once during core lifetime to ensure that every fuel rod is exposed to the thermalized spectrum. The Mixed Spectrum Reactor is able to maintain a core lifetime over two decades while ensuring the plutonium it breeds is below the weapon-grade limit at the fuel discharge. The main drawbacks of the design are higher front-end fuel cycle costs and a 58% increase in core volume, although it is alleviated to some extent by a 48% higher power output.

MPEG 의 Royalty-Free 비디오 코덱의 하나로 표준화 중인 IVC(Internet Video Coding)에서는 화면내(intra) 예측부호화에서 부호화 이득을 위하여 $4{\times}4$ 블록 예측 및 $4{\times}4$ 블록 변환을 포함하고 있다. 반면, 화면간(inter) 예측부호화에서는 $16{\times}16$ 블록에서 최소 $8{\times}8$ 블록까지의 가변크기 블록에 대한 예측만 가능하다. 보다 복잡한 영상의 경우 보다 작은 블록에 대한 화면간 예측을 통하여 부호화의 성능 개선을 개선할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 화면간 예측의 블록 크기를 $4{\times}4$ 블록까지 확장하여 화면간 예측부호화 성능을 개선한다. 실험결과 제안기법은 기존의 ITM 12.0 대비 다양한 테스트 시퀀스의 휘도성분에서 평균적으로 비트율 절감의 이득은 없으나 대부분의 클래스에서 성능개선을 보였고 추가적인 최적화가 필요함을 확인하였다.

현재 MPEG에서 표준화 중인 IVC(Internet Video Coding)에서는 기존의 비디오 부호화 표준과 같이 Lagrange 계수 기반의 율-왜곡 최적화(RDO: Rate-Distortion Optimization)를 사용하여 최적의 부호화 모드를 결정하고 있다. RDO를 위하여 픽쳐 타입과 부호화 구조에 따라 미리 결정된 Lagrange 계수가 선택적으로 사용되고 있다. 한편 IVC에서는 저지연 모드 부호화 구조에서 비참조 P 프레임 부호화 기법을 선택적으로 사용하여 상당한 부호화 성능을 얻고 있다. 하지만 Lagrange 계수 선택에서 기존의 P 프레임과는 다른 비참조 P 프레임의 RD 특성이 반영되고 있지 않다. 본 논문에서는 비참조 P 프레임의 RD 특성을 고려하여 기존의 기법을 확장한 새로운 Lagrange 계수 선택 기법을 제안한다. 실험결과 제안기법은 IVC 시험모델 ITM 10.0에서 기존 기법 대비 0.4%의 비트율 감소를 얻을 수 있음을 확인하였다.
