Recently, many problems have been caused by battery fires. The existing BMS(Battery Managment System) measured the voltage of each cell of the battery through the physical connection between the battery and the control module. However, if a battery with up to 1000 VDC becomes inoperable due to an external factor, the battery is damaged, and…

This article focuses on risk analysis using a multi-criteria decision-making method. Due to many performed risk analyses for soft targets, we are constantly trying to find new methods for objective risk assessment. Many risk analyses are subjective, which is a problem when planning security measures and comparing results (different events, objects, places, etc.). In this…

Globally, road transportation has become one of the most reliable means of moving goods and services from one place to the other. It has contributed immensely to the standard of living and modern civilization. However, this means of transportation is characterised by some issues which are poised to be harmful to the human population if…

This communication proposes a grounded immittance function simulator that, depending on the proper choice of the passive components, can simulate parallel-type impedances of the R-L, R-C, and L-C forms. Only two grounded passive components and two voltage differencing buffered amplifiers (VDBAs) are used to implement the suggested circuit. All three simulated equivalent elements, namely Req,…

Corn is one of the most important agricultural products in the world. However, climate change greatly threatens corn yield, further increasing already prevalent diseases. Northern corn leaf blight (NLB) and Gray Leaf Spot are two major corn diseases with lesion symptoms that look very similar to each other, and can lead to devastating loss if…

Different colleges and universities have different approaches to dealing with low-performance learners. However, in most cases, analgesics do not deal with root problems. This research suggests a model of three layers of variables sequentially adaptable to a deep-root issue. The suggested model can identify early pupils who could be at risk because of inaccurate or…

Collaborative filtering of recommended systems (CFRSs) suffers from overrun false rating injections that diverge the system functions for creating accurate recommendations. In this paper, we propose a three-stage unsupervised approach. Starts by defining the mechanism(s) that makes recommendation vulnerable to attack. Second, find the maximum-paths or the associated related items valued by the user. We…

The relevance of static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) controllers in controlling power network parameters is causing them to be included in contemporary networks. But for the intended objectives to be attained, the best device positioning and parameter settings are essential. This work compares the performance of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) and firefly algorithm (FA) in…

The “Electronic Nose” approach, which is exclusive to gas measurement systems, uses gas sensors as odor detectors. Design faults exist in the existing electronic nose (e-nose) chamber, such as its large volume, difficult construction, etc. In order to obtain measurements in a satisfactory state, we want to create a gas chamber that can provide favorable…

In this paper, a new syndrome block for Reed Solomon RS and BCH codes used respectively in digital Video broadcasting DVB-S and DVB-S2 has been presented in order to reduce the number of iterations compared to the existed block, which can be found in the literature, the new method is based on a factorization of…

Sleep stage performs a vital role in people’s daily lives in the detection of sleep-related diseases. Conventional automated sleep stage classifier models are not efficient due to the complexity linked to the design of mathematical models and extraction of hand-engineering features. Further, quick oscillations amongst sleep stages frequently lead to indistinct feature extraction, which might…
