The antenna is intended for ISM (Industrial, Scientific, and Medical) band (2.4 GHz to 2.48 GHz). A perfect…

In this paper, a regenerative energy recovery system for electric vehicles charging a battery at a low speed is proposed. When a permanent magnet synchronous motor driving the electric vehicles is driven by a generator, the generated voltage is controlled to rise or drop by using the L-C resonance circuit. As the circuit only has…

Recent years have seen a continued pattern of development in the cloud computing field. Numerous approaches to maximize file transfer capacity are still completely standing for use on cloud computing storage; however, they do not maximize the advantage of data migration scalability and elasticity in cloud storage. One potential problem is that elasticity takes time;…

Technological developments in the Internet and communications have created a vastly complex and dynamic context with diverse heterogeneous networks and fast growth of mobile devices and multimedia. As the Internet becomes the primary mode of communication for many organisations there is requirement to enhance quality of service (QoS) from heterogeneous systems and networks. Traditional networks…

Many real-life applications based on the wireless sensor networks are equipped with data aggregation mechanisms for suppressing or even overcoming negative environmental effects and data redundancy. In this paper, we present an extended analysis of the linear average consensus algorithm for distributed summing with bounded execution over wireless sensor networks. We compare a centralized and…

News companies have a need to automate and make the process of writing about popular and new events more effective. Current technologies involve robotic programs that fill in values in templates and website listeners that notify editors when changes are made so that the editor can read up on the source change on the actual…

This paper focuses on the issue of distributed reinforcement learning (RL) for decision-making in cooperative multi-agent systems. Although this problem has been a topic of interest to many researchers, results obtained from these works aren’t sufficient and several difficulties have not yet been resolved, such as, the curse of dimensionality and the multi-agent coordination problem.…

The study objective was to design and evaluate the agroecological system of an agricultural model with vegetable covers (Luffa cylindrica, Cyclanthera pedata and Mucuna pruriens) associated with tomato plants (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill), Rio Grande and Cherry varieties. The agroecological system is shown with its components of inputs, processes and outputs. The main entrances being solar…

Reinforced concrete (RC) structures are able to dissipate a large amount of energy during earthquake (EQ). RC structures designed to resist EQs must have enough strength and stiffness to prevent any possible collapse as well as to control deflection. Seismic codes include the response reduction/modification factor(R) in calculation of equivalent lateral forces used for EQ…

In Peru, large volumes of chicken manure are produced, whose compost applied at normal levels improves the ryegrass yield and protein intake, to obtain organic products and contribute to animal, environmental and human health. To evaluate the biofortifying effect of Chicken Manure Compost (CMC) incorporated in (T1): 0, (T2): 10 and (T3): 20 t ha-1…

As an emergent technology in Internet of Things (IoT), the ultimate target of fog computing is to provide a widely distributed computational resources and data repository closer to the network edge providing heterogeneous systems both in terms of software and hardware. The fog system must have the capability to deal with huge number of resources…

The Braille language system or also known as the language for the blind people was created so that these people can understand the vocabulary words depending on the country in which they are located, this system is based on points in which the points raised or also known as the largest points depending on their…

Microstrip patch antennas (MPAs) are comfortable and have better anticipation compared to traditional antennas. Not only the weight of this type of antennas is lighter but also, they have little capacity, minimum price, reduced in measurement as well as affluence of fiction then observance. Recently, it has been many times reevaluated for the improvement of…

Obstacles, both imagined and real, continue to hinder the wider adoption of Education 4.0 learning technologies although these technologies are available in the mainstream consumer market. At the same time, the boom in Industry 4.0 manufacturing has brought down the prices of these technological tools making them generally more affordable. A case in point is…

Productivity is increasing when less input was used in getting the same outcomes. Thus, the effectiveness of productive effort, especially in industry, as measured in terms of the rate of output per unit of input. As in derivative rubber industry which is producing the seal product for final assembly of Disc Drive. The function of…

The increase in employment and productivity is crucial for the economic growth of the European Union. Specifically, the employment of young people needs to be increased. The excessively theoretical approach to education is identified as one of the most significant problems in the educational system. Acquirement of practical experience while study, presents for the students…

Stress occurring in the early days of an individual was often assumed to cause several health consequences. A number of reports indicated that having to deal with unfavourable events or distress situation at a young age could tweak stress responses leading to a broad spectrum of poor mental and physical health condition. Therefore, changes identified…

In fast charging station for Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) the three-phase PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) inverters generate parasitic Differential-Mode Voltages (DMV) and Common-Mode Voltages (CMV). Parasitic voltages are a side effect of using the width modulation to shape the phase-to-phase inverter’s voltage. In this article the authors present a mathematical description of the differential-mode (DM)…
