Abstract:

The garment quality means the quality ofseam, which is the very important feature of any form of fabric assembly using sewing operations. The investigation has attempted to find out the relationship between fabric elongation & stitch thread tension on the occurrence of seam puckering at different woven fabric samples. In this attempt the different types of four fabrics are used to analyzed the occurrence of seam puckering at high sewing thread tension .The trend of seam puckering is evaluated by the calculation of seam puckering coefficient percentage at different tension level. This study brought the results that seam puckering is majorly depended upon the quality of material, sewing machine & skills of operator. The tendency of more seam puckering has been observed.......

Abstract:

Shear properties of glass fiber composite material is of great important in specifying the elastic constants of such orthotropic material. There are a lot of methods used to measure these important properties among of them ±45 tensile in-plane shear test. Cross ply glass fiber composite laminates of [0/ 90]2s are manufactured using hand-layup technique. ±45 tensile in-plane shear specimen is cut and manufactured from the produced [0/ 90]2s laminate. The test is simple and newly applicable. The main advantage of the test is its simplicity of manufacturing. The results give in-plane shear modulus for glass fiber composite laminates in range of 30.32GPa, while the shear strength is about 27 MPa. Modes of failure of the shear specimen is similar to doge bone shape..

Abstract:

The wind energy conversion system integrated with a doubly fed induction generator. The PWM based back-to-back power converters produced harmonic and as well as the non-linear loads are also a contributor of harmonics. Filters are used to eliminate these harmonics. In this work,there is a proposal for the passive filter named LLCL-filter with two traps for mitigating the harmonics. The DFIG based WECS analyse the harmonics mitigation under the non-linear loads with LLCL filter. The traditional controllers for controlling the rotor side converters (RSC) for active power and MPPT are substitute with the adaptive neural fuzzy inference system (ANFIS). ANFIS basic structure and principle of working are presented in this paper. The Simulated result shows the performance of filter connected DFIG under the non-linear load with varying wind speed and also shows the improved response than conventional controller. The THD of signal carried out through FFT. Simulations in MATLAB/Simulink verify the responses of filter.

Abstract:

The Joining of the Austenitic Stainless Steels is often used in the pressure vessels, chemicals and processing industries. The mechanical properties at the weld bead should also fulfill requirement of applicable code. Several process parameters interact in the complex manner resulting in direct or indirect influence on the mechanical properties. It is necessary to find out the optimum process conditions which are capable of producing desired weld quality. Therefore to achieve the typical tensile strength in Plasma Arc Welding (PAW) is the primary objective of this study. The parameters Current (I), Voltage (V), Wire feed (Wf) were optimized using Taguchi Orthogonal Array and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) is used for the analysis. The optimum parameters observed are Current: 230A; Voltage: 28V; Wire feed: 740mm/min resulting UTS of 687.35 MPa for SS304 of 6mm thickness.

Abstract:

The underground cable system is a common practice followed in many urban areas. While a fault occurs for some reason, at that time the repairing process related to that particular cable is difficult due to not knowing the exact location of the cable fault. The objective of this project is to determine the distance of underground cable fault from base station in kilometers. When a low DC voltage is applied at the feeder end through a series resistor (Cable lines), then current would vary depending upon the location of fault in the cable. In case there is a short circuit (Line to Ground), the voltage across series resistors changes accordingly, which is then fed to an ADC to develop precise digital data which the programmed microcontroller of 8051 family would display in kilometers. The project is assembled.....

Abstract:

A hydrochemical evaluation of ionic abundance in groundwater systems within parts of the Central Benue Trough, Nigeria was carried out. This study aimed at identifying the hydro-geochemical processes that control the groundwater chemistry, ionic abundance and distribution in the study area. The analytical results show the abundance of the cations as Na+ >Mg2+ >K+ >Ca2+, with Na+ constituting more than 75% in most cases while for the anions the order is Cl- > HCO3- > SO42- > NO33- with Cl- forming at least 80% in all cases. In determining groundwater types and visualizing trends of groundwater chemistry, plots were made on the Piper-trilinear diagram which revealed Magnesium-Bicarbonate, Calcium-Chloride, Sodium-Chloride, Sodium-Bicarbonate and Mixed water types within the study area. Sodium Bicarbonate type of groundwater was most prominent. The high concentration of Na+, Ca2+ and HCO3- in the groundwater could be due to the dissolution of plagioclase feldspars, ferromagnesian minerals, carbonate weathering and ion exchange reactions within the sedimentary units..

Abstract:

Fault detection plays an important role in high cost and safety-critical processes. Early detection of process faults can help avoid abnormal event progression. Fault detection can be accomplished through various means. In this project by using proper sensor for each instrument we are going detect the fault and ultimately try to increase the efficiency of particular plant. The sensors, micro-controller are key parts of the project. We mount separate sensor for each instrument to monitor performance of every instrument. The signals came from sensor is then feed to Micro-controller. We use Raspberry-pi micro-controller in this project. Micro-controller monitors all the signal comes from each sensor and according to that take corrective action if critical condition occurs. This condition, operator can see on his mobile app and control wherever he is. In this way the fault can be detected and the harm cause by any critical condition can be reduce. And it helps to increase the efficiency of whole plant..

In this research work,the construction of two-step hybrid block Simpson's methods with two, threeand four offgrid points for the solutions of first order stiff systems of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) in studied.In the derivation of the method, power series is adopted as basis function to obtain the main scheme through collocation and interpolations approach. Taylor series was adopted alongside, the method to generate nonoverlapping numerical results.This is achieved by transforming a k-step multi-step method into continuous form and evaluating at various grid points to obtain the discrete schemes. The performance of the methods is demonstrated on some numerical experiments. The results revealed that the hybrid block Simpson's method is efficient, accurate and convergent on mildly stiff problems..

Abstract:

Finite element analysis is an effective method of determining the static performance of structures for three reasons which are saving in design time, cost effective in construction and increase the safety of the structure. Previously, it is necessary to used advanced mathematical methods in analysis large structures, such as bridges, tall buildings and other. More accuracy generally required more elaborate techniques and therefore a large friction of the designer's time could be devoted to mathematical analysis. Finite element methods free designer's from the need to concentrate on mathematical calculation and allow them to spend more time on accurate representation of the intended structure and review of the calculated performance.Furthermore, by using the programs with interactive graphical facilities, it is possible to generate finite element models of complex......

Abstract:

Image fusion is the process by which two or more images are combined into a single image retaining the important features from each of the original images. In this paper, output of SURF and SIFT are used as input images that are further fused by using fusion algorithms DCT and DCHWT. The hybrid combination of DWT and DCHWT has increased the fusion window for the stitched image, which increased the fusion of visual data for a higher degree. The DCT component based decision mapping improved the fusion factor for combining the images in DWT domain by utilizing cosine energy map for whole image. The DWT with contrast and DCT element utilizes the high spectrum of values from its wide dimension filter bands and ensures frequency isolated fusion..
