Abstract Majority of the electric vehicles (EV) available commercially are powered by electrochemical batteries which have their own limitations related with cost, size, lifecycle and power density. A vehicle is supposed to perform satisfactorily under various dynamic conditions and on different road terrains requiring high torque and high motor current many times. The battery which […]
Abstract This paper exclusively evaluates the performance of grid connected variable speed Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) using Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) with Maximum Torque Per Ampere (MTPA) control. A new approach is employed using common synchronising circuit for generator and grid-side converters. The back-to-back converters used in WECS are realized using conventional two-level […]
Abstract There are various inverter topologies to drive a multiple AC load. Two different compact and cost-effective reduced switch count (RSC) inverter topologies are analysed in this paper. These topologies are capable to drive four ac loads and generating the twelve phase output voltage from a single common DC bus. In these topologies less number […]
Abstract Supercapacitor (SC) is an electrical energy storage device that bridges the gap between electrolytic capacitor and rechargeable battery. It can accept and deliver charge much faster than battery as well it has a high power density. This property makes them a good choice to be used in electric vehicles like buses and cars. To […]
Abstract The paper focuses on detection of cancerous nodule in lung using KNN classifier for the medical images to help the physicians to interpret the computer tomography (CT) scan images. The combination of various image processing tools to effectively accomplish the required objectives. Pre-processing of an image is a done to remove the noise in […]
Abstract The Seismic design makes use of concepts of energy absorption and dissipation to reduce the design forces in order to achieve the economy. The behavior of Response Reduction factor (R) assumes a central role in the seismic design process, since design forces are the quotient of elastic forces. R factor is used in the […]
Abstract As the need and demand of the new generation and increasing population has made the architects or engineers forces towards the planning of structure having irregular plan configurations. It is necessary to identify the performance of such structures to withstand against lateral load due to earthquakes. In the current study, the analysis of a […]
Abstract Lateral loading due to earthquake causes structures to move in a lateral direction that may cause severe damage to the many structural components leading to catastrophic damage. An Indian standard code allows the structure to design for these forces that occurred from seismic loading. IS 1893:2002 uses the R factor in the seismic coefficient […]
Abstract Earthquake is the seismic activity that can cause catastrophe and take millions of lives in one go. From the beginning of time and beginning of recorded history it is noticed that Earthquake is one of the many wraths of god which causes so much damage to the livelihood of the people. Conventional buildings are […]
Abstract Fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) is widely used as construction material. Fibers increase the structural integrity of concrete. Steel fibers, glass fibers, synthetic fibers and natural fibers are types of fibers used in FRC. Waste deposition of vehicles tyre after its useful life became critical issue to dispose off. In the present study preliminary investigation […]
