This paper is an extension of work originally presented in 2016 IEEE Asia-Pacific Conference on Applied Electromagnetics (APACE). A 2×1 microstrip patch array antenna integrated with photonic bandgap (PBG) and stubs is designed and analyzed. The performance of the PBG and stubs structure are explained and analyzed in terms of the elimination of the resonance…

This paper presents an analysis of a parallel connection of one synchronous generator and one self-excited induction generator that feeds a resistive load and an Induction Motor. The system voltage and frequency are controlled by a voltage control loop and a speed control loop connected to synchronous generator. The induction generator speed is controlled by…

Radio frequency Identification (RFID) is currently considered as one of the most used technologies for an automatic identification of objects or people. Based on a combination of tags and readers, RFID technology has widely been applied in various areas including supply chain, production and traffic control systems. However, despite of its numerous advantages, the technology…

When we drive a car, we often want to know the circumstances of roads between the current location and the destination. Ishihara et al. proposed a Vehicular ad-hoc NETworks (VANET) -based information sharing system, called the Real-Time Visual Car Navigation System, in which a driver can obtain Location-Dependent Information (LDI), such as photographs or videos…

The paper shows a method of transforming an asynchronously feedbacked Mealy machine into a Moore machine. The transformation is done in dual-rail logic under the use of the RS-buffer. The transformed machine stabilizes itself and is safe to use. The transformation is visualized via KV-diagrams and calculated with formulas. We will present three use-cases for…

The resolution of the Navier-Stokes and Euler equations by the finite element method is the focus of this paper. These equations are solved in conservative form using, as unknown variables, the so-called conservative variables (density, momentum per unit volume and total energy per unit volume). The variational formulation developed is a variant of the Petrov-Galerkin…

We describe a mathematical model for the industrial heating and cooling processes of a steel workpiece representing the steering rack of an automobile. The goal of steel heat treating is to provide a hardened surface on critical parts of the workpiece while keeping the rest soft and ductile in order to reduce fatigue. The high…

In this paper, we prove the existence of a solution of the strongly nonlinear degenerate \(p(x)\)-elliptic equation of type: \(\mathcal{(P)}\left\{\begin{array}{rl} - div\; a(x,u,\nabla u) +g(x,u,\nabla u)& = f \quad in \;\Omega, \\ u = 0 \quad on \quad \partial\Omega, \end{array}\right.\) where \(\Omega\) is a bounded open subset of \( I\!\!R^{N}, N\geq 2, a\) is a…

The automotive industry has focused to use polymer materials in order to increase energy efficiency. So, the industry pays attention to use 3D printing technologies using several polymers. Among several 3D printer technologies, fused deposition modeling (FDM) is one of the popular 3D printing technologies due to an inexpensive extrusion machine and multi-material printing. FDM…

In modern powers systems, one of the most considerable topics is economic load dispatch (ELD). ELD is non-linear problem and it became non-convex and non-smooth problem with some constraints such as valve point loading effect. ELD is very crucial for energy generation and distribution in power systems. For solving ELD problem, a lot of methods…

In acronym Captology – Computers as Persuasive Technology, a persuasive component (lat. persuasibilibus – enticing) refers to the persuasive stimulation by intelligent technologies. Latter being transitive and interactive as intelligent systems, they have imposed, by their persuasivity, a ‘cult of information’, after which information has become a type of goods that as a utilitarian resource…

Real estate pressures in modern electronics have resulted in the need for electrically small antennas, which have subsequently garnered interest amongst researchers and industry alike. These antennas are characterized by their largest dimensions translating to a fraction of the operating wavelength; such a diminutive size comes at the expense of reduced gain and efficiency, and…

This paper proposes extended-range high-speed control for an IPMSM drive system. A simple real-time tuning flux-weakening control algorithm is proposed and implemented to control an IPMSM drive system in a wide variable speed range, from 3 r/min up to 2700 r/min. This flux-weakening control algorithm does not require any motor parameters and only needs simple…

This paper deals with the design of a new reconfigurable beam antenna used to improve the efficiency of spatial telemetry links on Nano-Satellite. This agile beam antenna is not built on the well-known array concept AESA (Agile Electronically Scanned Array) but using a new one called ARMA (Agile Matrix Radiating Antenna); MARPEM in French. In…

Nowadays, Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD) (Heart Attack) is ubiquitous and one of the major reasons of death worldwide. Early screening of people at risk of having IHD may lead to minimize morbidity and mortality. A simple approach is proposed in this paper to predict risk of developing heart attack using smartphone and data mining. Clinical…

Over the years, wind loading codes has been a crucial tool in determining design wind loads on buildings. Due to the limitations of these codes especially in height, wind tunnel testing is recommended as the best approach in predicting wind flow around buildings but carrying out wind tunnel testing in the preliminary as well as…

New multimedia applications such as mobile video, high-quality Internet video or digital television requires high-performance encoding of video signals to meet technical constraints such as runtime, bandwidth or latency. Video coding standard h.265 HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding) was developed by JCT-VC to replace the MPEG-2, MPEG-4 and h.264 codecs and to respond to these…

This research work is novel technique to control and optimize SSSC (Subsynchronous Series Controller) functions with degree of precision in between Qatar and Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The SSSC model developed and simulated in order to identify and determine its control and functioning parameters by introducing new tuning parameters based on that the SSSC can…

In crowdsourcing, selecting the person with suitable expertise is very important; especially since the task requester is not always in direct contact with the worker. Recently, this has become increasingly important particularly when the crowdsourced tasks are complex and require skillful workers (e.g. software development, software testing, vulnerability discovery, and open innovation). In this paper,…

Speaking about the commutation’s equipment, it can be said that the best solution in increasing reliability and lowering the maintenance costs is a continuous monitoring of the equipment. However, if the price/quality ratio is considered, it is obvious that, for the moment, the diagnosis can be also an acceptable solution. Nowadays the predictive maintenance for…

In Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) tools, vertebra localization and detection are the essential steps for the diagnosis of cervical spine injuries. The accurate localization leads to accurate treatment, which is more challenging in case of poor contrast and noisy radiographs. This paper targets c-spine radiographs for the localization of vertebra using different vertebra templates, vertebra…

The discovery of semantic information from complex signals is a task concerned with connecting humans’ perceptions and/or intentions with the signals content. In the case of audio signals, complex perceptions are appraised in a listener’s mind, that trigger affective responses that may be relevant for well-being and survival. In this paper we are interested in…
