Due to the variations in weather conditions, photovoltaic systems adopt a technique based on maximum power point tracking to extract the maximal power of the solar module. In the literature, there are many different methods classical and intelligent of maximum power point tracking (MPPT). But, due to the semiconductor effect, the current-voltage characteristics of the…

Passive remote monitoring applications of underwater signal processing in a shallow water environment are an impactful area of research for environmental and marine-life monitoring. The majority of the sound source localization techniques require carefully placed synchronized hydrophone arrays, which can be complicated and hard to maintain. In this paper, we utilized the modal dispersions of…

Narrow-band Internet of Things (NB-IoT) is a low-power wide-area network (LPWAN) method that was first launched by the 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) Rel-13 with the purpose of enabling low-cost, low-power, and wide-area cellular connections for the Internet of Things (IoT). As the demand for over-the-air services grows and with the number of linked wireless…

In this study, we conducted an experimental study and efficiency optimization of the outer rotor (hub) BLDC (brushless direct current) motor and axial BLDC motor for light electric vehicles. Both motors were investigated in the simulation environment and experimentally. The axial flux BLDC motor had a rated power of 10 KW, and a rated speed…

This article explains the fundamental principles of the economic policy that are integrated into the decentralized public platform Waterfall. The platform has a DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph) based system architecture and is designed to develop decentralized applications and financial services. The main goal of this work is to create a favorable environment that incentivizes positive…

Like many STEM research projects, the members of the National Science Foundation-funded STEM SEALS project dramatically shifted from in-person delivery of a summer institute to distance-learning with minimal time for preparation. However, the daunting challenge also offered the unique opportunity to apply Design-based Research within an exploratory study to inform and document the progression and…

Continuously Variable Series Reactor (CVSR) is a device that can vary the reactance in an ac circuit by controlling the magnetization of a ferromagnetic core, shared by ac and dc windings. The bias dc current can change the equivalent ac reactance(inductance) in order to, for example, control load flow, damp oscillations, or fault current limitation.…

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a substantial death toll throughout the world. The pandemic has created a threat to public health, the economy, food systems, and the workplace. An increased reprioritization of health expenditure towards COVID-19 vaccines will impact on allocations to other medical facilities. In developing countries, hospitals shortage the infrastructure to facilitate patients.…

Medical adherence is a major concern globally and is increasing with improved access to medication. Unfortunately, patients taking multiple medications often struggle with confusion about when and how to take each medication. To address this issue, an inexpensive domestic device has been proposed to improve medication adherence. This device uses Wi-Fi and cellular Internet of…

In this research paper, a technical and economic-environmental study was developed to investigate the possibility of establishing various hybrid power systems with different operation modes. Grid-connected and standalone hybrid systems (solar-wind with storage batteries and diesel generators) have been realized in order to carry out a comparative analysis study of two configurations. These systems have…

This paper describes the design of a phase shifter with electrically adjustable parameters employing only one voltage differencing gain amplifier (VDGA) and one floating capacitor. This circuit requires no external resistors, resulting in a resistorless design and a low component count. The proposed circuit implements a first-order all-pass filter response with electronic control of its…

The main contradiction identified in the study is that the existing scientific and methodological solves of economy development management processes does not create prerequisites for improving the efficiency of their work, the introduction of progressive technologies for material and moral stimulation of the work of performers and administrative and managerial personnel, advanced social mechanisms for…

Currently, the quality and quantity of product must be inspected before transporting. Currently the popular unsealing box product inspecting is performed by weighing the box where the errors occur according to the tolerance of the weighting machine and tolerance weight of the product. On the other hand, the quantity of product can be inspected automatically…

The detection and classification of fish is a prevalent and fascinating area of study. Numerous researchers develop skills in fish recognition in both aquatic and non-aquatic environments, which is beneficial for population control and the aquaculture industry, respectively. Rarely is research conducted to optimize the recognition of fish with diverse backgrounds. This paper proposes a…

Blockchain technology has been successfully applied in many fields for immutable and secure data storage.
