V. Swaminathan, S. Sivakamasundari and R.
Ramasubramani |
Abstract: |
The
research on copper slag and jute fiber has been done to study the
construction. From past 20 years many researchers are proved that the
usage of copper slag as a replacement in concrete will be possible due
to same granular size of copper likely as of fine aggregates. This
project aim study the structural behavior of reinforced concrete with
copper slag and jute fiber their application in concrete strength. In
experimental investigate copper slag is replacement by fine aggregate by
adding o% to 40% of copper slag and overall addition of 0% to 1.5% of
jute fiber. The compressive and tensile strength of concrete increase
with structural behavior of concrete. Through these results of trial 1
is maximum value are 20% of copper slag and 0.5 % jute fiber through
these results going to cast a beam of conventional and mix proportions.
And project aim is to achieve a M80 grade of concrete strength in a
beam. In a beam the flexural strength is going to be tested to achieve
and M80 grade of concrete. There are so many researches are carried
around the globe on the usage of copper slag as replacement material,
but in India a very few researches are carried. |

Abstract: |
In
this article, the control of a pilot pressure plant was developed by
means of artificial neural networks, using the training and learning
possibilities that these provide. The same control algorithms used in
industrial plants can be applied in this pilot plant. With the
implementation of this pilot pressure plant, a comparison was made
between conventional control techniques and intelligent control in terms
of efficiency and usefulness. This comparison was carried out by means
of experimental data considering the results obtained with the
conventional controller and the controller proposed by neural networks.
A series of perturbations were performed once the system was in its
steady state to obtain the response times of both control methods and
determine the efficiency and advantages of intelligent control. The
control was performed on the Arduino Mega board in serial communication
with Matlab®(R2021b) to visualize the variables and thus observe the
system behavior in real time. |

Title: |
Implementation of area efficient and high
speed HNG gate based multiplier for DSP applications |
Author (s): |
K. Manikanta and N. Siddaiah |
Abstract: |
In
the scientific literature, there is a lot of discussion on approximate
multipliers and circuits based on approximate 4-2 compressors. The
designer who wants to employ an approximation 4-2 compressor is
confronted with the challenge of choosing the proper topology due to the
enormous number of options. A complete study and comparison of the
roughly 4-2 compressors that have been suggested in the literature are
presented here. One more compressor is shown, so that there are now
twelve distinct approximate 4-2 compressors evaluated. The goal is to
create logic gates that can be reversed. Quantum computing relies
heavily on the reversibility of logical operations. This technology's
gadgets run at very fast speeds and utilize very little power. Hardware
description language (HDL) is used to create simple reversible logic
gates. The Verilog implementation of the Wallace tree multiplier uses a
simple half adder and a full adder. The reversible logic gates have been
created, as well as a 4bit reversible adder, irreversible adder along
multiplier has been developed. Layouts are designed using a variety of
foundry technologies, and these methods are compared. We've reached the
end of the road in terms of low-power dissipation. An 8x8 bit reversible
multiplier circuit has been suggested and developed in this article. In
terms of speed and complexity, the suggested reversible multiplier is
superior to the current multipliers. In terms of the number of gates,
garbage outputs, and constant inputs, it is superior to the current
alternatives. The "HNG" 8x8 reversible gate was recently suggested by
Haghparast and Navi. It is possible to use a reversible HNG gate as a
reversible full adder when it is used alone. The reversible multiplier
circuit in this study is built using HNG gates. Two 8-bit binary
integers may be multiplied using the HNG gate in the proposed reversible
multiplier circuit. A generalized version of the suggested reversible
8x8 multiplier circuit may be used for NxN bit multiplication as well. |

Author (s): |
N. Widyaningsih and D. Riyanto |
Abstract: |
The
characteristics of the movement of public transportation users in South
Tangerang City must be reviewed and analyzed so that the use of public
transportation can be used as one of the best alternatives in providing
services for an integrated city infrastructure system. So that every
decision on the implementation of public transportation policies in this
case the local government can get optimal results and plans to increase
public interest in the use of public transportation can be realized. The
purpose of this study is to identify the characteristics of public
transportation users who use the station in South Tangerang City, to
find out the factors that influence people's satisfaction in choosing a
bus station, and to analyze the effect of movement, mode facilities and
zones on user satisfaction and perceptions of users of public
transportation station. The research approach used is quantitative with
primary data sources obtained from a questionnaire instrument to 160
users of Public Transportation Bus Station in South Tangerang City. The
data analysis method used is Structure Question Modeling (SEM) - Partial
Least Square (PLS) with the Smart PLS 3.0 program to determine the
factors that influence user satisfaction and to determine the
instruments that need to be improved in station development. The results
of the analysis show that the factor that has the most direct influence
on the satisfaction of public transportation users in South Tangerang
City is the mode facility variable, while the zone variable does not
have a significant effect on Transportation User Perception. |

Title: |
Impact of non-contact electromagnetic
radiation on living organs and tissues |
Author (s): |

Osintsev, V. I. Braginsky, E. S. Gromov and N. V. Vasilchenko |
Abstract: |
This
study aims to create a laboratory unit for induction heating and assess
how possible it is to use local induction heating in solving problems
related to biotechnology and medicine. This article contains a
description of a method for non-contact local hyperthermal heating of
biological tissues using inductive electromagnetic radiation. The method
is based on the introduction of a composite material consisting of a
polymer base and incorporated ferromagnetic particles into living
tissues. The authors present a simplified mathematical model of physical
processes occurring during the heating of a polymer sample-implant. The
results of mathematical modeling are further used to approximate the
data obtained in experiments on a specially built laboratory unit. The
materials for building the applicator included a mixture of a plastic
polymer and a hardener. The plastic polymer was modified by adding
finely dispersed ferromagnetic particles and thoroughly mixed. Since the
further use of the polymer applicator will occur in the field of
biotechnology and medicine, the material for the manufacture of the
applicator was Speedex putty silicone impression mass. The authors have
calculated the physical parameters of the simplest model of the heated
applicator. The nature of the dependence of the efficiency of induction
heat release has been established. An increase in the efficiency of
induction heating with an increase in the size of electrically
conductive particles has been proven. Another series of experiments has
been organized with double power consumption. The authors see the
prospect of further development of studies in the chosen area in the
development and creation of an automated control system and long-term
maintenance of the temperature of heated samples at the target level. To
do this, it is necessary to compare various methods for controlling the
thermal power: control of the duty cycle of the master oscillator
pulses, frequency shift near the resonant frequency, periodic on/off
switching of the master oscillator, etc. Besides, it is necessary to
develop a technique and technology for monitoring the uniformity of the
sample temperature, which is especially important due to the complexity
of using conductors in the induction heating zone. Finally, an important
task for further studies is the development of different inductors for
different applications. The authors assume that an open external
inductor with a ferrite core may become the most probable model. |

Author (s): |
G. E. Chanchí-Golondrino, M. A.
Ospina-Alarcón and W. Y. Campo-Muñoz |
Abstract: |
With
the growth in the number of applications deployed in cloud app
repositories and the increase in the number of users consuming them,
usability has become a differentiating factor that promotes the
competitiveness of software companies and user productivity. One of the
usability tests that focuses on evaluating the layout and/or
distribution of the elements in the graphic interface is the mouse
tracking test, which has as a challenge the analysis of the mouse trace
obtained in the test. In this paper we propose as a contribution the
application of unsupervised learning techniques and specifically the use
of clustering techniques from the K-Means algorithm in the analysis of
the mouse trace obtained in a usability test under the mouse tracking
approach. In this way, from the images with the mouse traces generated
in these tests, the distribution of the mouse trace points around a set
of centroids is obtained, with the purpose of determining the area of
the screen in which there was more interaction in the test by the user
and in order to make decisions on the layout and distribution of the
interface components. |

Title: |
Increasing of durability of shock
absorbers of car suspension by using of an innovative repair kit of
silent block |

Flyurovich Kalimullin and Abzal Makhsotovich Biniyazov |
Abstract: |
Silent
blocks are one of the most common and characteristic mates in transport
technology, and, in particular, in the design of shock absorbers for car
suspensions. The defect such as a “silent block rupture” is
characteristed for the rear shock absorbers in operation, Moreover, the
silent block often fails much earlier than the shock absorber itself.
The shock absorbers restoration by replacement with new silent blocks of
standard design does not solve the problem of unsatisfactory durability.
The authors consider that the reserve for increasing the durability of
shock absorbers is to improve the restoration of silent blocks due to
original technical solutions for repair kits. Original technical
solution for the silent block repair kits is using a bearing with a
movable conical spring insert in it. The design parameters of such an
innovative repair kit were previously theoretically substantiated in the
authors' works. The silent block repair kit consists of a modified
standard silent block and additional elements - a steel sleeve and a
conical spring insert. It is presented the developed technological
process of manufacturing a repair kit. The validity of the theoretical
prerequisites for the development of a repair kit for the silent block
of the shock absorber of a vehicle containing a bearing with a tapered
spring insert is confirmed by the results of experimental studies using
high-precision measuring and control tools, as well as observations
under operational conditions. The scientifically substantiated technical
and technological development presented in this research is essential
for increasing the efficiency of road transport operation by
substantiating the principle and developing a technology for restoring
the health of vehicle suspension joints using repair kits with movable
spring inserts.
Summarizing the research results and observations, we can conclude that
the developed innovative silent block repair kit has the following
important practical advantages; 1. The durability of the node is
increased in 1.5 - 2 times due to the presence of such phenomena that
are absent in the known designs of bearings, such as the “ratchet
effect”, “the effect of oil and thread” and “the effect of wearlessness”;
2. The costs are reduced for the manufacture and assembly of the repair
kit by reducing the requirements for the accuracy of the working
surfaces of the parts. |
