Abstract In this paper one of the most actual problem of complex engineering system design and development is discussed. The problem is how to explore and to estimate complex systems possibilities to be reliable and survivable during all its future life cycle. Fuzzy forecasting approach based on group-expertise procedure seems to be most convenient solution […]
Abstract The spatio-temporal production process is considered and the necessity of its organization on the basis of lean technology is justified. The role of the basic tool for organizing a lean production flow – Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) – is noted and the overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) used in continuous production has been calculated. It […]
Abstract The article studies the errors of conversion algorithms for photometric systems using the example of the Cγ → Bβ transformation. The considered algorithms lead to different types of interpolation at the final stage: on scattered data and bilinear interpolation. The authors study the way the error behaves with a different grid pitch of photometric […]
Abstract The article describes the device and its operation principle with high frequency and infrared power supply for raw meat salting and heat treatment. The experimental studies of raw meat parameters (pork; muscular stomach; chicken heart) were carried out in the developed device. They provided the results of raw meat heating dynamics study in a […]
Abstract This article focuses on a problem of measuring front teeth’s individual size parameters. Teeth size may determine the set of treatment in orthopaedic stomatology, therapeutic stomatology and orthodontics. Choosing the size of artificial teeth is an important phase of denture, since it determines the function and aesthetics of dental prosthesis. In the practice of […]
Abstract This paper presents a method for selecting a source of comparable electrical power with a test of stability of an autonomous power supply system, using the example of a process of a grain’s preliminary cleaning. The factors of violation of stability due to the feature of starting modes of the node of the electric […]
Abstract The integration of sensors deals with the accumulation of information from two or more sensors in network. However the accumulation of data is typically the subject of research in the area of image analysis. Generally the reliability of collected data might induce the problem of reconstructing to get its original form. The Various fusion […]
Abstract Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are using for monitoring and controlling process plants like Oil & Gas refineries, Power generation and distribution etc. The data acquisition server in these ICS systems uses communication protocol like MODBUS, DNP to collect the data from PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) or Remote Telemetry Unit (RTU). Currently, infrastructure utilities depend […]
Abstract Texture segmentation has a wide spectrum of applications in diverse fields. This paper presents an elaborated Fisher Linear Discriminant (FLD) based semi-supervised approach for improving the accuracy of segmentation of multi-class complex fine textures. Gabor filter and local statistics (local variance) are used for feature extraction of texture images. Texture segments in the image […]
Abstract Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) is a technique for finding some indicator variables that form variables/constructs that are not directly measured based on existing theories or previous studies. The purpose of this study is to find out the indicators of the most dominant variance/construction affecting it. The results of the analysis will show variables forming […]
