"Reduction of uncertainties associated to the dynamic response of a ship unlo...TRUSS ITN
Here, the TRUSS (Training in Reducing Uncertainty in Structural Safety) ITN (Innovative Training Network) Horizon 2020 project (http://trussitn.eu, 2015-19) demonstrates how the accuracy of residual life assessment predictions can be improved by achieving a good agreement between measured and predicted dynamic responses of a crane structure. Existing records of measured strain data are often missing information such as the weight of the payload, the hoisting speed and acceleration that are relevant for structural assessment purposes. This paper aims to reduce uncertainties associated with the recorded data in an aged grab ship unloader by comparing measured and non-linear transient finite element analyses results for a loading/unloading cycle. The speed pattern is determined from a best match to the measured record. The moving load consisting of ‘trolley + grab + payload’ is modelled with parameters that are derived from minimizing differences between measured and simulated responses. The determination of these loading parameters is central to accurately assess the remaining life of ship unloaders.

Age of Information (AoI) measures the freshness of data in mission critical Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications i.e., industrial internet, intelligent transportation systems etc. In this paper, a new system model is proposed to estimate the average AoI (AAoI) in an ultra-reliable low latency communication (URLLC) enabled wireless communication system with decode-and-forward relay scheme over the quasi-static Rayleigh block fading channels. Short packet communication scheme is used to meet both reliability and latency requirements of the proposed wireless network. By resorting finite block length information theory, queuing theory and stochastic processes, a closed-form expression for AAoI is obtained. Finally, the impact of the system parameters, such as update generation rate, block length and block length allocation factor on the AAoI are investigated. All results are validated by the numerical results. Index Terms-Age-of-Information, finite block length regime, latency, reliability, ultra-reliable low latency communications (URLLC) and 5GB.

EE5317: Gyroscopes
Gyros are devices which rely on inertial measurements to measure changes in the orientation of an object. When gyros are combined with accelerometers, all the parameters necessary to determine the position and orientation of an object are available. A combined unit called an “Inertial Measurement Unit” is a common component of aircraft, missiles and other valuable objects whose trajectory needs to be determined by indirect means.
AcousticTransducers
Transducers are devices that convert energy in one form to another. In acoustics we are mainly concerned with conversion of acoustic energy to electrical energy or vice versa.
Acoustic waves: Acoustic waves are pressure waves. They are different from Electromagnetic (EM) waves in that they need a medium to propagate. The waves propagates by induced vibrations in the medium. Therefore acoustic waves do not propagate in a vacuum unlike EM waves.
Acoustic wave propagation in air: Acoustic waves propagate in air when microscopically induced oscillations in air particles pass on their energy to neighbouring air particles which in turn will induce microscopic oscillations in their neighbouring air particles

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

Accelerometers 2015
1. Accelerometers
• Accelerometers are devices that produce a voltage signal proportional to
the acceleration experienced.
Definitions and units:
• Acceleration is the time rate of change of velocity or the time rate of
change of the time rate of change of distance.
• If we denote v and x as velocity and distance respectively,
acceleration a = ∂v/∂t = ∂2
x/∂t2
.
• The units of acceleration are measured in (m/s)/s or m/s2
.
• A “g” is a unit of acceleration equal to earth’s gravity at sea level and has
the value 9.81 m/s2
.
• Example of some g reference points are
1g = Earth’s gravity, 2 g = Passenger car in corner,
3 g = Race car driver in corner, 7 g = Human unconsciousness,
10 g = Space shuttle.
2. • The most general approach to acceleration measurement is to take
advantage of Newton’ law,
• which states that any mass m that undergoes an acceleration a is
responding to a force given by F = ma.
• The most general way to take advantage of this force is to suspend a mass
on a linear spring from a frame which surrounds the mass as shown.

3. • b denotes damping introduced to the system
• When the frame is shaken, it begins to move, pulling the mass along with
it.
• If the mass is to undergo the same acceleration as the frame, there will be
a force exerted on the mass, which will lead to an elongation of the
spring.
• Any type of displacement transducer, such as a capacitive transducer, can
be used to measure this deflection.

4. • Let X denote the position of the frame and x the position of the mass.
• b denotes damping introduced to the system and k the stiffness
constant for the spring.
• For the case shown in the Figure, the sum of the forces on the mass are
equal to the acceleration of the mass and given by ,
k (X-x) + b d (X-x) = m d2

• Take Z = X-x or x = X - Z, then
m d2
X/dt2
= m d2
Z/dt2
+ kZ + b dZ/dt.
• Since X is the position of the frame, we impose an acceleration on this
problem by forcing X to take the form X = X0eiωt
.
• We also assume that all the time varying quantities also oscillate, so
Z = Z0eiωt
.
Substituting we have
-mω2
X0eiωt
= -mω2
Z0eiωt
+ kZ0eiωt
+ iωbZ0eiωt
.
6. • If we assign
ω0 = (k/m)½
ζ = b/[2(km)½
] the damping ratio
(another definition of the damping term)
A0 = -ω2
X0
and Substitute and rearrange,
Z0 = -A0 / [ω2
– ω0
2
- i2ωω0ζ].
7. Z0 = -A0 / [ω2
– ω0
2
- i2ωω0ζ]
• There are three regions for this equation:
(1) If b = 0 (no damping),
Z0 will be infinite for ω = ω0 .
This means that the signal at the resonance of an undamped accelerometer
can lead to infinitely large signals. Thus accelerometer designers generally
impose finite damping on the system.
(2) If ω < ω0,
this expression can be simplified to (assuming the ω0
2
term is much greater
than the other terms in the denominator) as,
Z0 = A/ ω0
2
= -ω2
X0/ω0
2
In this case, the displacement of the mass is proportional to the
acceleration of the frame, and is the response needed for an accelerometer.
8. (3) If ω > ω0 , the expression simplifies to: Z0 = X0 .
This is the case for high frequency signals, during which the mass
remains stationery, and the accelerometer frame shakes around it. In
this case, the displacement between the mass and the frame is the same
size as the motion of the frame. This mode of operation is generally
referred to as the ‘seismometer mode’. Seismometers are instruments
that measure ground motion rather than ground acceleration.

9. • Thus the general accelerometer consists of a mass, a spring and a
displacement transducer.
• The overall performance of an accelerometer is generally limited by the
mechanical characteristics of the spring (linearity, dynamic range, cross-
axis sensitivity) and the sensitivity of the displacement transducer
10. • Recent advances in microelectronic engineering have given us a class of
devices known as Micro ElectroMechanical Systems, generally described
by the acronym MEMS. The dimensions of these devices are in
micrometers (microns).
• The most common MEMS accelerometer is the ADXL50.
• The ADXL50 is based on differential capacitance changes due to changes
in acceleration.
• The principle of operation of the device is still based on the General
Accelerometer described above.
11. Capacitive Sensing
• Capacitance measurement can be used to detect the motion of a sensor element.
• A simple example would involve the motion of one electrode in a plane parallel to
the electrodes as shown in Fig 1.
• Electrodes dimensions are length L and width W.
• If one electrode moves laterally a distance x,
the capacitance changes from εε0LW/d to εε0(L-x)W/d.
• Thus the capacitance changes linearly with displacement.
• To implement such a sensor, it is necessary to guarantee that the lateral motion
does not also affect the separation d between the plates.
• This approach is difficult to use for measurement of very small lateral
displacements.

L

L
xFig 1
12. • The most common use of capacitive detection for sensors is based on
signals which are coupled to changes in the electrode separation d as
shown in Fig 2.
• A physical signal causes the separation to increase by a small quantity ∆.
• The capacitance changes from εε0A/d to εε0A/ (d+∆)
• The relationship between the displacement and change in capacitance is
now not linear, but for small changes in separation we can approximate
the capacitance by using the Taylor series expansion to give
C = (εε0A/d) [1 -∆/d +½ ∆2
/d2
]
• So for ∆ << d, the capacitance change is linear with respect to
displacement
L
W d
L
d+ΔFig 2
13. • A technique for reducing the effect of the non-linearity is to use a differential
capacitor shown in Fig 3.
• In this case, the capacitance measuring circuit is set up to measure the
difference between the two capacitances which can be expressed as:
∆C = C2 – C1 = εε0A/ (d-∆) - εε0A/ (d+∆)
= εε0A/d [1 +∆/d + ½∆2
/d2
] - εε0A/d [1 -∆/d + ½∆2
/d2
] = εε0A/d [2∆/d]
• In this case the non-linearity associated with the ∆2
/d2
term is subtracted away,
and the first non-linearity appears as a cubic ∆3
/d3
term, which would be much
smaller than the squared term.
• The linearity in capacitor sensors are important as generally, capacitive
measuring techniques are only applied in cases where precision measurement is
necessary.

14. ADXL50
• Analog Devices ADXL50 is the first commercially available
surface-micromachined accelerometer with integrated signal
processing.
• It measures acceleration in a bandwidth from DC to 1 kHz
with 0.2% linearity, and it outputs a scaled DC voltage.
• It is fabricated on a 9 mm2
chip.
• It also is a force-balance device which uses electrostatic force
to null the acceleration force on the “proof” (seismic) mass,
with advantages in bandwidth, self test and linearity.
15. ADXL50
• The ADXL50 uses an exceptionally small (1mm2
) capacitive
sensor element.
• The full scale range is ±50 g, compatible with automotive
airbag deployment requirements, and the accuracy is 5% over
temperature and power supply extremes.
• It uses a 5 V supply and includes a calibrated high level output
and a self testing feature, at a high volume price of US $5 (or
less).
• A more sensitive version, the ADXL05 is also available,
spanning the range of ±5 g with 0.005g resolution and a
typical nonlinearity of 0.3% full scale.

20. Accelerometers with charge output: Charge Amplifiers
• Accelerometers with charge output generate an output signal
in the range of picocoulombs (pC) with very high impedance.
• To process this signal by standard AC measuring equipment it
needs to be transformed into a low impedance voltage signal.
• Charge amplifiers are used for this purpose.

22. • The input charge qin is applied to the summing point (inverting input) of
the amplifier.
• It is distributed to the cable capacitance Cc, the amplifier input capacitance
Cinp and the feedback capacitor Cf.
• The node equation of the input is therefore,
qin = qc + qinp + qf .

23. • Using the electrostatic equation q = u C (where u denotes voltage) and
substituting for qc, qinp and qf,
qin = uinp(Cc + Cinp) + ufCfwhere uf is voltage across Cf.
• Since the voltage difference between the inverting and the non-inverting
input of a differential amplifier becomes zero under normal operating
conditions, we can assume that the input voltage of the charge amplifier
uinp will be equal to GND potential.
• With uinp = 0 we can simplify the equation to qin = ufCf
and solving for the output voltage
uout = uf = qin / Cf.

no influence on the output signal.

types.
