This document presents a fuzzy logic method for estimating the critical clearing time (CCT) of faults in multi-machine power systems. The method involves a two-step fuzzy logic algorithm: 1) Calculate the time increment (Δt) based on maximum angle deviation (δmax) as input, 2) Classify system stability based on mechanical input power (Pm) and average acceleration (Aav) as inputs. The fuzzy logic method is tested on IEEE 9-bus and 39-bus systems and shows accuracy within 5% of time domain simulation results, while reducing computation time by about half. Tables compare estimated CCT and computation time between the two methods for different fault locations.
FUZZY LOGIC APPROACH FOR FAULT DIAGNOSIS OF THREE PHASE TRANSMISSION LINEJournal For Research

Transient Stability Assessment and Enhancement in Power SystemIJMER
Power system is subjected to sudden changes in load levels. Stability is an important concept
which determines the stable operation of power system. For the improvement of transient stability the
general methods adopted are fast acting exciters, circuit breakers and reduction in system transfer
reactance. The modern trend is to employ FACTS devices in the existing system for effective utilization
of existing transmission resources. The critical clearing time is a measure to assess transient instability.
Using PSAT, the critical clearing time (CCT) corresponding to various faults are calculated. The most
critical faults were identified using this calculation. The CCT for the critical faults were found to change
with change in operating point. The CCT values are predicted using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to
study the training effects of ANN. TCSC is selected as the FACTS device for transient stability
enhancement. Particle Swarm Optimization method is used to find the optimal position of TCSC using
the objective function real power loss minimization. The result shows that the technique effectively
increases the transient stability of the system

This paper is based on the problem of accurate fault diagnosis by incorporating a waveform matching technique. Fault isolation and detection of a double circuit high voltage power transmission line is of immense importance from point of view of Energy Management services. Power System Fault types namely single line to ground faults, line to line faults, double line to ground faults etc. are responsible for transients in current and voltage waveforms in Power Systems. Waveform matching deals with the approximate superimposition of such waveforms in discretized versions obtained from recording devices and Software respectively. The analogy derived from these waveforms is obtained as an error function of voltage and current, from the considered metering devices. This assists in modelling the fault identification as an optimization problem of minimizing the error between these sets of waveforms. In other words, it utilizes the benefit of software discrepancies between these two waveforms. Analysis has been done using the Bare Bones Particle Swarm Optimizer on an IEEE 2 bus, 6 bus and 14 bus system. The performance of the algorithm has been compared with an analogous meta-heuristic algorithm called BAT optimization on a 2 bus level. The primary focus of this paper is to demonstrate the efficiency of such methods and state the common peculiarities in measurements, and the possible remedies for such distortions.

Generalized optimal placement of PMUs considering power system observability,...IJECEIAES
This paper presents a generalized optimal placement of Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) considering power system observability, reliability, Communication Infrastructure (CI), and latency time associated with this CI. Moreover, the economic study for additional new data transmission paths is considered as well as the availability of predefined locations of some PMUs and the preexisting communication devices (CDs) in some buses. Two cases for the location of the Control Center Base Station (CCBS) are considered; predefined case and free selected case. The PMUs placement and their required communication network topology and channel capacity are co-optimized simultaneously. In this study, two different approaches are applied to optimize the objective function; the first approach is combined from Binary Particle Swarm Optimization-Gravitational Search Algorithm (BPSOGSA) and the Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) algorithm, while the second approach is based only on BPSOGSA. The feasibility of the proposed approaches are examined by applying it to IEEE 14-bus and IEEE 118-bus systems.

The increased power system loading combined with the worldwide power industry deregulation requires more reliable and efficient control of the power flow and network stability. Flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) devices give new opportunities for controlling power and enhancing the usable capacity of the existing transmission lines. This paper presents a combined application of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) and the continuation power flow (CPF) technique to determine the optimal placement of static var compensator (SVC) in order to achieve the static voltage stability margin. The PSO objective function to be maximized is the loading factor to modify the load powers. In this scope, two SVC constraints are considered: the reference voltage in the first case and the total reactance and SVC reactive power in the second case. To test the performance of the proposed method, several simulations were performed on IEEE 30-Bus test systems. The results obtained show the effectiveness of the proposed method to find the optimal placement of the static var compensator and the improvement of the voltage stability.
Frequency Response Assessment: Parameter Identification of Simplified Governo...Power System Operation
With a growing share of inverter-interfaced generation
in modern power systems, synchronous inertia is
declining. This leads to faster frequency drop after large
generation trip events. During low inertia conditions,
frequency containment reserves might not be sufficient
to arrest frequency before it reaches the threshold for
underfrequency load shedding. It is therefore becoming
increasingly important for system operators to be able to
assess frequency response in near real time. In contrast to
detailed models, simplified models offer short simulation
times and their parameters can be accurately identified
and adapted to changing system conditions in near real
time. In this paper, the parameters of governor response
models are identified by minimizing the error residuals
between the simulation models’ and the actual system’s
measured active power response. This is accomplished
by using historic event data from two system operators:
the Electric Reliability Council Of Texas (ERCOT) and
the Swedish Svenska kraftnät (Svk). Then, the respective
frequency response models are simulated to assess
frequency response. The results show that, despite their
simplicity, the models provide a very good fit compared
to the actual response. The models of ERCOT and
Svk are examined; however, a similar approach can be
employed to represent the frequency response of other
power systems.
A new linear quadratic regulator model to mitigate frequency disturbances in...IJECEIAES
This paper proposes a new model integrating a linear quadratic regulator (LQR) controller to mitigate frequency disturbances in the power system during cyber-attack, called as linear quadratic regulator to mitigate frequency disturbances (LQRMFD). As we know, most of the existing models have a common problem with achieving significant performances in mitigating dynamic response parameters, such as frequency deviation and settling time. However, the key aspect of LQRMFD is to mitigate the above issues with remarkable performance improvements. An uncommon and stable power system model has been considered in LQRMFD first to reach such a goal. A numerical problem has been solved to derive a certain characteristic equation, where the Routh-Hurwitz array criterion is applied for determining the stability of such a power system. After that, a state-space equation is developed from the power system to activate the LQR controller. Thus, achieving diversity and eliminating the redundancy of the power system considered can be obtained in LQRMFD. To evaluate the performance of LQRMFD, a series of experiments was conducted using the MATLABSimulink tool. Rigorous comparisons were also made among the results of LQRMFD, self-implemented and existing models. Furthermore, a detailed analysis was reported among those models to find the performance improvement of LQRMFD in percentage.

In this paper, a mathematical model and a controller for a DC motor are developed for the
construction of an in-wheel motor. In-wheel motors can be used in hybrid electric vehicles to provide traction
force of front or rear wheels. The model identification is achieved using a simple and low cost data acquisition
system. An Arduino Uno embedded board system is used to collect data from sensors to a computer and for
control purposes. Data processing is performed using Matlab/Simulink. Validations of the devel oped
mathematical model and controller performance are carried out by comparing simulation and experimental results.
The results obtained show that the mathematical model is accurate enough to assist in speed controller design and
implementation.
Evaluation of electrical load estimation in Diyala governorate (Baaquba city)...IJECEIAES
The evaluation of electrical load estimation is requisitely of any electrical power system. This manner is needed for system obligation, economical distribution and maintenance time of electrical system. In this paper, we propose electrical load estimation method based on fuzzy inference system which gives accurate results for estimated loads in Iraq (Diyala governorateBaaquba city). And it can assist the electrical generation and distribution system that depends on important parameters (temperature, humidity and the speed of the wind). By considering the parameters temperature, humidity and the speed of the wind. These parameters are applied as inputs to the fuzzy logic control system to obtain the normalize estimated load as output by electing membership functions. It is exceptionally valuable to form a choice by taking into consideration these assessed readings that come to from the proposed FIS that displayed in this paper with precision of 0.969 from the real stack request.
Transient response mitigation using type-2 fuzzy controller optimized by grey...IJECEIAES
Long high voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission link is commonly used to transmit electrical energy via land or under-sea cable. The long HVDC avoids reactive power losses (RPL) and power stability problems (PSP). On the contrary, the RPL and PSP phenomena occur in long high voltage alternative current-link (HVAC) caused by the high reactive component in the HVAC-link. However, the HVDC produces a high and slow transient current response (TCR) on the high value of the up-ramp rate. Interval type-2 fuzzy (IT2F) control on converter-side HVDC is proposed to mitigate this TCR problem. The IT2F is optimized by grey wolf optimizer (GWO) to adjust input-output IT2F parameters optimally. The performance of IT2F-GWO is assessed by the minimum value of integral time squared error (ITSE), peak overshoot, and settling time of the TCR. The IT2FCGWO performance is validated by the performance of IT2F control that is optimized by genetic algorithm (IT2F-GA) and proportional integral (PI) controller. Simulation results show that the IT2F-GWO performs better with small ITSE, low peak overshoot, and shorter settling times than competing controllers.

Fossil fuel consumption increased quickly, contributing to climate change
that is evident in unusual flooding and draughts, and global warming. Over
the past ten years, women's involvement in society has grown dramatically,
and they succeeded in playing a noticeable role in reducing climate change.
A bibliometric analysis of data from the last ten years has been carried out to
examine the role of women in addressing the climate change. The analysis's
findings discussed the relevant to the sustainable development goals (SDGs),
particularly SDG 7 and SDG 13. The results considered contributions made
by women in the various sectors while taking geographic dispersion into
account. The bibliometric analysis delves into topics including women's
leadership in environmental groups, their involvement in policymaking, their
contributions to sustainable development projects, and the influence of
gender diversity on attempts to mitigate climate change. This study's results
highlight how women have influenced policies and actions related to climate
change, point out areas of research deficiency and recommendations on how
to increase role of the women in addressing the climate change and
achieving sustainability. To achieve more successful results, this initiative
aims to highlight the significance of gender equality and encourage
inclusivity in climate change decision-making processes.
Voltage and frequency control of microgrid in presence of micro-turbine inter...IJECEIAES
The active and reactive load changes have a significant impact on voltage
and frequency. In this paper, in order to stabilize the microgrid (MG) against
load variations in islanding mode, the active and reactive power of all
distributed generators (DGs), including energy storage (battery), diesel
generator, and micro-turbine, are controlled. The micro-turbine generator is
connected to MG through a three-phase to three-phase matrix converter, and
the droop control method is applied for controlling the voltage and
frequency of MG. In addition, a method is introduced for voltage and
frequency control of micro-turbines in the transition state from gridconnected mode to islanding mode. A novel switching strategy of the matrix
converter is used for converting the high-frequency output voltage of the
micro-turbine to the grid-side frequency of the utility system. Moreover,
using the switching strategy, the low-order harmonics in the output current
and voltage are not produced, and consequently, the size of the output filter
would be reduced. In fact, the suggested control strategy is load-independent
and has no frequency conversion restrictions. The proposed approach for
voltage and frequency regulation demonstrates exceptional performance and
favorable response across various load alteration scenarios. The suggested
strategy is examined in several scenarios in the MG test systems, and the
simulation results are addressed.

This paper presents a combined application of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) and the continuation power flow (CPF) technique to determine the optimal placement of static var compensator (SVC) in order to achieve the static voltage stability margin. The PSO objective function to be maximized is the loading factor to modify the load powers. In this scope, two SVC constraints are considered: the reference voltage in the first case and the total reactance and SVC reactive power in the second case. To test the performance of the proposed method, several simulations were performed on IEEE 30-Bus test systems. The results obtained show the effectiveness of the proposed method to find the optimal placement of the static var compensator and the improvement of the voltage stability.
Frequency Response Assessment: Parameter Identification of Simplified Governo...Power System Operation
With a growing share of inverter-interfaced generation
in modern power systems, synchronous inertia is
declining. This leads to faster frequency drop after large
generation trip events. During low inertia conditions,
frequency containment reserves might not be sufficient
to arrest frequency before it reaches the threshold for
underfrequency load shedding. It is therefore becoming
increasingly important for system operators to be able to
assess frequency response in near real time. In contrast to
detailed models, simplified models offer short simulation
times and their parameters can be accurately identified
and adapted to changing system conditions in near real
time. In this paper, the parameters of governor response
models are identified by minimizing the error residuals
between the simulation models’ and the actual system’s
measured active power response. This is accomplished
by using historic event data from two system operators:
the Electric Reliability Council Of Texas (ERCOT) and
the Swedish Svenska kraftnät (Svk). Then, the respective
frequency response models are simulated to assess
frequency response. The results show that, despite their
simplicity, the models provide a very good fit compared
to the actual response. The models of ERCOT and
Svk are examined; however, a similar approach can be
employed to represent the frequency response of other
power systems.
A new linear quadratic regulator model to mitigate frequency disturbances in...IJECEIAES
This paper proposes a new model integrating a linear quadratic regulator (LQR) controller to mitigate frequency disturbances in the power system during cyber-attack, called as linear quadratic regulator to mitigate frequency disturbances (LQRMFD). As we know, most of the existing models have a common problem with achieving significant performances in mitigating dynamic response parameters, such as frequency deviation and settling time. However, the key aspect of LQRMFD is to mitigate the above issues with remarkable performance improvements. An uncommon and stable power system model has been considered in LQRMFD first to reach such a goal. A numerical problem has been solved to derive a certain characteristic equation, where the Routh-Hurwitz array criterion is applied for determining the stability of such a power system. After that, a state-space equation is developed from the power system to activate the LQR controller. Thus, achieving diversity and eliminating the redundancy of the power system considered can be obtained in LQRMFD. To evaluate the performance of LQRMFD, a series of experiments was conducted using the MATLABSimulink tool. Rigorous comparisons were also made among the results of LQRMFD, self-implemented and existing models. Furthermore, a detailed analysis was reported among those models to find the performance improvement of LQRMFD in percentage.

In this paper, a mathematical model and a controller for a DC motor are developed for the
construction of an in-wheel motor. In-wheel motors can be used in hybrid electric vehicles to provide traction
force of front or rear wheels. The model identification is achieved using a simple and low cost data acquisition
system. An Arduino Uno embedded board system is used to collect data from sensors to a computer and for
control purposes. Data processing is performed using Matlab/Simulink. Validations of the devel oped
mathematical model and controller performance are carried out by comparing simulation and experimental results.
The results obtained show that the mathematical model is accurate enough to assist in speed controller design and
implementation.
Evaluation of electrical load estimation in Diyala governorate (Baaquba city)...IJECEIAES
The evaluation of electrical load estimation is requisitely of any electrical power system. This manner is needed for system obligation, economical distribution and maintenance time of electrical system. In this paper, we propose electrical load estimation method based on fuzzy inference system which gives accurate results for estimated loads in Iraq (Diyala governorateBaaquba city). And it can assist the electrical generation and distribution system that depends on important parameters (temperature, humidity and the speed of the wind). By considering the parameters temperature, humidity and the speed of the wind. These parameters are applied as inputs to the fuzzy logic control system to obtain the normalize estimated load as output by electing membership functions. It is exceptionally valuable to form a choice by taking into consideration these assessed readings that come to from the proposed FIS that displayed in this paper with precision of 0.969 from the real stack request.
Transient response mitigation using type-2 fuzzy controller optimized by grey...IJECEIAES
Long high voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission link is commonly used to transmit electrical energy via land or under-sea cable. The long HVDC avoids reactive power losses (RPL) and power stability problems (PSP). On the contrary, the RPL and PSP phenomena occur in long high voltage alternative current-link (HVAC) caused by the high reactive component in the HVAC-link. However, the HVDC produces a high and slow transient current response (TCR) on the high value of the up-ramp rate. Interval type-2 fuzzy (IT2F) control on converter-side HVDC is proposed to mitigate this TCR problem. The IT2F is optimized by grey wolf optimizer (GWO) to adjust input-output IT2F parameters optimally. The performance of IT2F-GWO is assessed by the minimum value of integral time squared error (ITSE), peak overshoot, and settling time of the TCR. The IT2FCGWO performance is validated by the performance of IT2F control that is optimized by genetic algorithm (IT2F-GA) and proportional integral (PI) controller. Simulation results show that the IT2F-GWO performs better with small ITSE, low peak overshoot, and shorter settling times than competing controllers.

Fossil fuel consumption increased quickly, contributing to climate change
that is evident in unusual flooding and draughts, and global warming. Over
the past ten years, women's involvement in society has grown dramatically,
and they succeeded in playing a noticeable role in reducing climate change.
A bibliometric analysis of data from the last ten years has been carried out to
examine the role of women in addressing the climate change. The analysis's
findings discussed the relevant to the sustainable development goals (SDGs),
particularly SDG 7 and SDG 13. The results considered contributions made
by women in the various sectors while taking geographic dispersion into
account. The bibliometric analysis delves into topics including women's
leadership in environmental groups, their involvement in policymaking, their
contributions to sustainable development projects, and the influence of
gender diversity on attempts to mitigate climate change. This study's results
highlight how women have influenced policies and actions related to climate
change, point out areas of research deficiency and recommendations on how
to increase role of the women in addressing the climate change and
achieving sustainability. To achieve more successful results, this initiative
aims to highlight the significance of gender equality and encourage
inclusivity in climate change decision-making processes.
Voltage and frequency control of microgrid in presence of micro-turbine inter...IJECEIAES
The active and reactive load changes have a significant impact on voltage
and frequency. In this paper, in order to stabilize the microgrid (MG) against
load variations in islanding mode, the active and reactive power of all
distributed generators (DGs), including energy storage (battery), diesel
generator, and micro-turbine, are controlled. The micro-turbine generator is
connected to MG through a three-phase to three-phase matrix converter, and
the droop control method is applied for controlling the voltage and
frequency of MG. In addition, a method is introduced for voltage and
frequency control of micro-turbines in the transition state from gridconnected mode to islanding mode. A novel switching strategy of the matrix
converter is used for converting the high-frequency output voltage of the
micro-turbine to the grid-side frequency of the utility system. Moreover,
using the switching strategy, the low-order harmonics in the output current
and voltage are not produced, and consequently, the size of the output filter
would be reduced. In fact, the suggested control strategy is load-independent
and has no frequency conversion restrictions. The proposed approach for
voltage and frequency regulation demonstrates exceptional performance and
favorable response across various load alteration scenarios. The suggested
strategy is examined in several scenarios in the MG test systems, and the
simulation results are addressed.

Precisely characterizing Li-ion batteries is essential for optimizing their
performance, enhancing safety, and prolonging their lifespan across various
applications, such as electric vehicles and renewable energy systems. This
article introduces an innovative nonlinear methodology for system
identification of a Li-ion battery, employing a nonlinear autoregressive with
exogenous inputs (NARX) model. The proposed approach integrates the
benefits of nonlinear modeling with the adaptability of the NARX structure,
facilitating a more comprehensive representation of the intricate
electrochemical processes within the battery. Experimental data collected
from a Li-ion battery operating under diverse scenarios are employed to
validate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology. The identified
NARX model exhibits superior accuracy in predicting the battery's behavior
compared to traditional linear models. This study underscores the
importance of accounting for nonlinearities in battery modeling, providing
insights into the intricate relationships between state-of-charge, voltage, and
current under dynamic conditions.
Smart grid deployment: from a bibliometric analysis to a surveyIJECEIAES
Smart grids are one of the last decades' innovations in electrical energy.
They bring relevant advantages compared to the traditional grid and
significant interest from the research community. Assessing the field's
evolution is essential to propose guidelines for facing new and future smart
grid challenges. In addition, knowing the main technologies involved in the
deployment of smart grids (SGs) is important to highlight possible
shortcomings that can be mitigated by developing new tools. This paper
contributes to the research trends mentioned above by focusing on two
objectives. First, a bibliometric analysis is presented to give an overview of
the current research level about smart grid deployment. Second, a survey of
the main technological approaches used for smart grid implementation and
their contributions are highlighted. To that effect, we searched the Web of
Science (WoS), and the Scopus databases. We obtained 5,663 documents
from WoS and 7,215 from Scopus on smart grid implementation or
deployment. With the extraction limitation in the Scopus database, 5,872 of
the 7,215 documents were extracted using a multi-step process. These two
datasets have been analyzed using a bibliometric tool called bibliometrix.
The main outputs are presented with some recommendations for future
research.
Use of analytical hierarchy process for selecting and prioritizing islanding ...IJECEIAES
One of the problems that are associated to power systems is islanding
condition, which must be rapidly and properly detected to prevent any
negative consequences on the system's protection, stability, and security.
This paper offers a thorough overview of several islanding detection
strategies, which are divided into two categories: classic approaches,
including local and remote approaches, and modern techniques, including
techniques based on signal processing and computational intelligence.
Additionally, each approach is compared and assessed based on several
factors, including implementation costs, non-detected zones, declining
power quality, and response times using the analytical hierarchy process
(AHP). The multi-criteria decision-making analysis shows that the overall
weight of passive methods (24.7%), active methods (7.8%), hybrid methods
(5.6%), remote methods (14.5%), signal processing-based methods (26.6%),
and computational intelligent-based methods (20.8%) based on the
comparison of all criteria together. Thus, it can be seen from the total weight
that hybrid approaches are the least suitable to be chosen, while signal
processing-based methods are the most appropriate islanding detection
method to be selected and implemented in power system with respect to the
aforementioned factors. Using Expert Choice software, the proposed
hierarchy model is studied and examined.
Enhancing of single-stage grid-connected photovoltaic system using fuzzy logi...IJECEIAES
The power generated by photovoltaic (PV) systems is influenced by
environmental factors. This variability hampers the control and utilization of
solar cells' peak output. In this study, a single-stage grid-connected PV
system is designed to enhance power quality. Our approach employs fuzzy
logic in the direct power control (DPC) of a three-phase voltage source
inverter (VSI), enabling seamless integration of the PV connected to the
grid. Additionally, a fuzzy logic-based maximum power point tracking
(MPPT) controller is adopted, which outperforms traditional methods like
incremental conductance (INC) in enhancing solar cell efficiency and
minimizing the response time. Moreover, the inverter's real-time active and
reactive power is directly managed to achieve a unity power factor (UPF).
The system's performance is assessed through MATLAB/Simulink
implementation, showing marked improvement over conventional methods,
particularly in steady-state and varying weather conditions. For solar
irradiances of 500 and 1,000 W/m2
, the results show that the proposed
method reduces the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the injected current
to the grid by approximately 46% and 38% compared to conventional
methods, respectively. Furthermore, we compare the simulation results with
IEEE standards to evaluate the system's grid compatibility.
Enhancing photovoltaic system maximum power point tracking with fuzzy logic-b...IJECEIAES
Photovoltaic systems have emerged as a promising energy resource that
caters to the future needs of society, owing to their renewable, inexhaustible,
and cost-free nature. The power output of these systems relies on solar cell
radiation and temperature. In order to mitigate the dependence on
atmospheric conditions and enhance power tracking, a conventional
approach has been improved by integrating various methods. To optimize
the generation of electricity from solar systems, the maximum power point
tracking (MPPT) technique is employed. To overcome limitations such as
steady-state voltage oscillations and improve transient response, two
traditional MPPT methods, namely fuzzy logic controller (FLC) and perturb
and observe (P&O), have been modified. This research paper aims to
simulate and validate the step size of the proposed modified P&O and FLC
techniques within the MPPT algorithm using MATLAB/Simulink for
efficient power tracking in photovoltaic systems.
Adaptive synchronous sliding control for a robot manipulator based on neural ...IJECEIAES
Robot manipulators have become important equipment in production lines, medical fields, and transportation. Improving the quality of trajectory tracking for
robot hands is always an attractive topic in the research community. This is a
challenging problem because robot manipulators are complex nonlinear systems
and are often subject to fluctuations in loads and external disturbances. This
article proposes an adaptive synchronous sliding control scheme to improve trajectory tracking performance for a robot manipulator. The proposed controller
ensures that the positions of the joints track the desired trajectory, synchronize
the errors, and significantly reduces chattering. First, the synchronous tracking
errors and synchronous sliding surfaces are presented. Second, the synchronous
tracking error dynamics are determined. Third, a robust adaptive control law is
designed,the unknown components of the model are estimated online by the neural network, and the parameters of the switching elements are selected by fuzzy
logic. The built algorithm ensures that the tracking and approximation errors
are ultimately uniformly bounded (UUB). Finally, the effectiveness of the constructed algorithm is demonstrated through simulation and experimental results.
Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed controller is effective with small synchronous tracking errors, and the chattering phenomenon is
significantly reduced.

A remote laboratory utilizing field-programmable gate array (FPGA) technologies enhances students’ learning experience anywhere and anytime in embedded system design. Existing remote laboratories prioritize hardware access and visual feedback for observing board behavior after programming, neglecting comprehensive debugging tools to resolve errors that require internal signal acquisition. This paper proposes a novel remote embeddedsystem design approach targeting FPGA technologies that are fully interactive via a web-based platform. Our solution provides FPGA board access and debugging capabilities beyond the visual feedback provided by existing remote laboratories. We implemented a lab module that allows users to seamlessly incorporate into their FPGA design. The module minimizes hardware resource utilization while enabling the acquisition of a large number of data samples from the signal during the experiments by adaptively compressing the signal prior to data transmission. The results demonstrate an average compression ratio of 2.90 across three benchmark signals, indicating efficient signal acquisition and effective debugging and analysis. This method allows users to acquire more data samples than conventional methods. The proposed lab allows students to remotely test and debug their designs, bridging the gap between theory and practice in embedded system design.

Efficiently identifying and resolving code smells enhances software project quality. This paper presents a novel solution, utilizing automated machine learning (AutoML) techniques, to detect code smells and apply move method refactoring. By evaluating code metrics before and after refactoring, we assessed its impact on coupling, complexity, and cohesion. Key contributions of this research include a unique dataset for code smell classification and the development of models using AutoGluon for optimal performance. Furthermore, the study identifies the top 20 influential features in classifying feature envy, a well-known code smell, stemming from excessive reliance on external classes. We also explored how move method refactoring addresses feature envy, revealing reduced coupling and complexity, and improved cohesion, ultimately enhancing code quality. In summary, this research offers an empirical, data-driven approach, integrating AutoML and move method refactoring to optimize software project quality. Insights gained shed light on the benefits of refactoring on code quality and the significance of specific features in detecting feature envy. Future research can expand to explore additional refactoring techniques and a broader range of code metrics, advancing software engineering practices and standards.

Rapidly and remotely monitoring and receiving the solar cell systems status parameters, solar irradiance, temperature, and humidity, are critical issues in enhancement their efficiency. Hence, in the present article an improved smart prototype of internet of things (IoT) technique based on embedded system through NodeMCU ESP8266 (ESP-12E) was carried out experimentally. Three different regions at Egypt; Luxor, Cairo, and El-Beheira cities were chosen to study their solar irradiance profile, temperature, and humidity by the proposed IoT system. The monitoring data of solar irradiance, temperature, and humidity were live visualized directly by Ubidots through hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) protocol. The measured solar power radiation in Luxor, Cairo, and El-Beheira ranged between 216-1000, 245-958, and 187-692 W/m 2 respectively during the solar day. The accuracy and rapidity of obtaining monitoring results using the proposed IoT system made it a strong candidate for application in monitoring solar cell systems. On the other hand, the obtained solar power radiation results of the three considered regions strongly candidate Luxor and Cairo as suitable places to build up a solar cells system station rather than El-Beheira.
An efficient security framework for intrusion detection and prevention in int...IJECEIAES
Over the past few years, the internet of things (IoT) has advanced to connect billions of smart devices to improve quality of life. However, anomalies or malicious intrusions pose several security loopholes, leading to performance degradation and threat to data security in IoT operations. Thereby, IoT security systems must keep an eye on and restrict unwanted events from occurring in the IoT network. Recently, various technical solutions based on machine learning (ML) models have been derived towards identifying and restricting unwanted events in IoT. However, most ML-based approaches are prone to miss-classification due to inappropriate feature selection. Additionally, most ML approaches applied to intrusion detection and prevention consider supervised learning, which requires a large amount of labeled data to be trained. Consequently, such complex datasets are impossible to source in a large network like IoT. To address this problem, this proposed study introduces an efficient learning mechanism to strengthen the IoT security aspects. The proposed algorithm incorporates supervised and unsupervised approaches to improve the learning models for intrusion detection and mitigation. Compared with the related works, the experimental outcome shows that the model performs well in a benchmark dataset. It accomplishes an improved detection accuracy of approximately 99.21%.

This research is developing an incubator system that integrates the internet of things and artificial intelligence to improve care for premature babies. The system workflow starts with sensors that collect data from the incubator. Then, the data is sent in real-time to the internet of things (IoT) broker eclipse mosquito using the message queue telemetry transport (MQTT) protocol version 5.0. After that, the data is stored in a database for analysis using the long short-term memory network (LSTM) method and displayed in a web application using an application programming interface (API) service. Furthermore, the experimental results produce as many as 2,880 rows of data stored in the database. The correlation coefficient between the target attribute and other attributes ranges from 0.23 to 0.48. Next, several experiments were conducted to evaluate the model-predicted value on the test data. The best results are obtained using a two-layer LSTM configuration model, each with 60 neurons and a lookback setting 6. This model produces an R 2 value of 0.934, with a root mean square error (RMSE) value of 0.015 and a mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.008. In addition, the R 2 value was also evaluated for each attribute used as input, with a result of values between 0.590 and 0.845.

Honey is produced exclusively by honeybees and stingless bees which both are well adapted to tropical and subtropical regions such as Malaysia. Stingless bees are known for producing small amounts of honey and are known for having a unique flavor profile. Problem identified that many stingless bees collapsed due to weather, temperature and environment. It is critical to understand the relationship between the production of stingless bee honey and environmental conditions to improve honey production. Thus, this paper presents a review on stingless bee's honey production and prediction modeling. About 54 previous research has been analyzed and compared in identifying the research gaps. A framework on modeling the prediction of stingless bee honey is derived. The result presents the comparison and analysis on the internet of things (IoT) monitoring systems, honey production estimation, convolution neural networks (CNNs), and automatic identification methods on bee species. It is identified based on image detection method the top best three efficiency presents CNN is at 98.67%, densely connected convolutional networks with YOLO v3 is 97.7%, and DenseNet201 convolutional networks 99.81%. This study is significant to assist the researcher in developing a model for predicting stingless honey produced by bee's output, which is important for a stable economy and food security.

The internet of things (IoT) is a revolutionary innovation in many aspects of our society including interactions, financial activity, and global security such as the military and battlefield internet. Due to the limited energy and processing capacity of network devices, security, energy consumption, compatibility, and device heterogeneity are the long-term IoT problems. As a result, energy and security are critical for data transmission across edge and IoT networks. Existing IoT interoperability techniques need more computation time, have unreliable authentication mechanisms that break easily, lose data easily, and have low confidentiality. In this paper, a key agreement protocol-based authentication mechanism for IoT devices is offered as a solution to this issue. This system makes use of information exchange, which must be secured to prevent access by unauthorized users. Using a compact contiki/cooja simulator, the performance and design of the suggested framework are validated. The simulation findings are evaluated based on detection of malicious nodes after 60 minutes of simulation. The suggested trust method, which is based on privacy access control, reduced packet loss ratio to 0.32%, consumed 0.39% power, and had the greatest average residual energy of 0.99 mJoules at 10 nodes.
Fuzzy linear programming with the intuitionistic polygonal fuzzy numbersIJECEIAES
In real world applications, data are subject to ambiguity due to several factors; fuzzy sets and fuzzy numbers propose a great tool to model such ambiguity. In case of hesitation, the complement of a membership value in fuzzy numbers can be different from the non-membership value, in which case we can model using intuitionistic fuzzy numbers as they provide flexibility by defining both a membership and a non-membership functions. In this article, we consider the intuitionistic fuzzy linear programming problem with intuitionistic polygonal fuzzy numbers, which is a generalization of the previous polygonal fuzzy numbers found in the literature. We present a modification of the simplex method that can be used to solve any general intuitionistic fuzzy linear programming problem after approximating the problem by an intuitionistic polygonal fuzzy number with n edges. This method is given in a simple tableau formulation, and then applied on numerical examples for clarity.

Prostate cancer is the predominant form of cancer observed in men worldwide. The application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a guidance tool for conducting biopsies has been established as a reliable and well-established approach in the diagnosis of prostate cancer. The diagnostic performance of MRI-guided prostate cancer diagnosis exhibits significant heterogeneity due to the intricate and multi-step nature of the diagnostic pathway. The development of artificial intelligence (AI) models, specifically through the utilization of machine learning techniques such as deep learning, is assuming an increasingly significant role in the field of radiology. In the realm of prostate MRI, a considerable body of literature has been dedicated to the development of various AI algorithms. These algorithms have been specifically designed for tasks such as prostate segmentation, lesion identification, and classification. The overarching objective of these endeavors is to enhance diagnostic performance and foster greater agreement among different observers within MRI scans for the prostate. This review article aims to provide a concise overview of the application of AI in the field of radiology, with a specific focus on its utilization in prostate MRI.
Seizure stage detection of epileptic seizure using convolutional neural networksIJECEIAES
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), seventy million individuals worldwide suffer from epilepsy, a neurological disorder. While electroencephalography (EEG) is crucial for diagnosing epilepsy and monitoring the brain activity of epilepsy patients, it requires a specialist to examine all EEG recordings to find epileptic behavior. This procedure needs an experienced doctor, and a precise epilepsy diagnosis is crucial for appropriate treatment. To identify epileptic seizures, this study employed a convolutional neural network (CNN) based on raw scalp EEG signals to discriminate between preictal, ictal, postictal, and interictal segments. The possibility of these characteristics is explored by examining how well timedomain signals work in the detection of epileptic signals using intracranial Freiburg Hospital (FH), scalp Children's Hospital Boston-Massachusetts Institute of Technology (CHB-MIT) databases, and Temple University Hospital (TUH) EEG. To test the viability of this approach, two types of experiments were carried out. Firstly, binary class classification (preictal, ictal, postictal each versus interictal) and four-class classification (interictal versus preictal versus ictal versus postictal). The average accuracy for stage detection using CHB-MIT database was 84.4%, while the Freiburg database's time-domain signals had an accuracy of 79.7% and the highest accuracy of 94.02% for classification in the TUH EEG database when comparing interictal stage to preictal stage.
Analysis of driving style using self-organizing maps to analyze driver behaviorIJECEIAES
Modern life is strongly associated with the use of cars, but the increase in acceleration speeds and their maneuverability leads to a dangerous driving style for some drivers. In these conditions, the development of a method that allows you to track the behavior of the driver is relevant. The article provides an overview of existing methods and models for assessing the functioning of motor vehicles and driver behavior. Based on this, a combined algorithm for recognizing driving style is proposed. To do this, a set of input data was formed, including 20 descriptive features: About the environment, the driver's behavior and the characteristics of the functioning of the car, collected using OBD II. The generated data set is sent to the Kohonen network, where clustering is performed according to driving style and degree of danger. Getting the driving characteristics into a particular cluster allows you to switch to the private indicators of an individual driver and considering individual driving characteristics. The application of the method allows you to identify potentially dangerous driving styles that can prevent accidents.
Hyperspectral object classification using hybrid spectral-spatial fusion and ...IJECEIAES
Because of its spectral-spatial and temporal resolution of greater areas, hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has found widespread application in the field of object classification. The HSI is typically used to accurately determine an object's physical characteristics as well as to locate related objects with appropriate spectral fingerprints. As a result, the HSI has been extensively applied to object identification in several fields, including surveillance, agricultural monitoring, environmental research, and precision agriculture. However, because of their enormous size, objects require a lot of time to classify; for this reason, both spectral and spatial feature fusion have been completed. The existing classification strategy leads to increased misclassification, and the feature fusion method is unable to preserve semantic object inherent features; This study addresses the research difficulties by introducing a hybrid spectral-spatial fusion (HSSF) technique to minimize feature size while maintaining object intrinsic qualities; Lastly, a soft-margins kernel is proposed for multi-layer deep support vector machine (MLDSVM) to reduce misclassification. The standard Indian pines dataset is used for the experiment, and the outcome demonstrates that the HSSF-MLDSVM model performs substantially better in terms of accuracy and Kappa coefficient.
Online aptitude test management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
The purpose of on-line aptitude test system is to take online test in an efficient manner and no time wasting for checking the paper. The main objective of on-line aptitude test system is to efficiently evaluate the candidate thoroughly through a fully automated system that not only saves lot of time but also gives fast results. For students they give papers according to their convenience and time and there is no need of using extra thing like paper, pen etc. This can be used in educational institutions as well as in corporate world. Can be used anywhere any time as it is a web based application (user Location doesn’t matter). No restriction that examiner has to be present when the candidate takes the test.
Every time when lecturers/professors need to conduct examinations they have to sit down think about the questions and then create a whole new set of questions for each and every exam. In some cases the professor may want to give an open book online exam that is the student can take the exam any time anywhere, but the student might have to answer the questions in a limited time period. The professor may want to change the sequence of questions for every student. The problem that a student has is whenever a date for the exam is declared the student has to take it and there is no way he can take it at some other time. This project will create an interface for the examiner to create and store questions in a repository. It will also create an interface for the student to take examinations at his convenience and the questions and/or exams may be timed. Thereby creating an application which can be used by examiners and examinee’s simultaneously.
Examination System is very useful for Teachers/Professors. As in the teaching profession, you are responsible for writing question papers. In the conventional method, you write the question paper on paper, keep question papers separate from answers and all this information you have to keep in a locker to avoid unauthorized access. Using the Examination System you can create a question paper and everything will be written to a single exam file in encrypted format. You can set the General and Administrator password to avoid unauthorized access to your question paper. Every time you start the examination, the program shuffles all the questions and selects them randomly from the database, which reduces the chances of memorizing the questions.

Studying network stability requires determining the best critical clearing
time (CCT) for the network after the fault has occurred. CCT is an essential
issue for transient stability assessment (TSA) in the operation, security, and
maintenance of an electrical power system. This paper proposes an
algorithm to obtain CCT based on fuzzy logic (FL) under fault conditions,
for a multi-machine power system. CCT was estimated using a two-step
fuzzy logic algorithm: the first step is to calculate Δt, which represents the
output of the FL, while maximum angle deviation (δmax) represents the
input. The second step is to classify the system if it is a stable or unstable
system, based on two inputs for FL, the first mechanical input power (Pm),
the second average accelerations (Aav). The results of the proposed method
were compared with the time domain simulation (TDS) method. The results
showed the accuracy and speed of the estimation using the FL method, with
an error rate not exceeding 5%, and reduced the performance time by about
half the time. The proposed approach is tested on both IEEE-9 bus and
IEEE-39 bus systems using simulation in MATLAB.

1. INTRODUCTION
The interest in controlling the transient situations that the electric power systems are exposed to has
become an important issue that the generation, transmission and distribution of electric power companies
seek. Interest in these aspects has increased over time, and methods and techniques have been continuously
developed to keep pace with the complexities and breadth of electrical power systems [1], [2]. The study of
stability and its analysis is very important to know the possibility of maintaining the stability of the system
when disturbances occur, such as transmission line malfunctions, sudden change of electrical loads, sudden
loss of units, as well as known malfunctions, which are cases of short circuits that the electrical system may
be exposed to. Which may cause, in the event of the fault being large, to lose the synchronization state of a
generator with the rest of the generators in the system, which leads to a state of imbalance or stability in the
system, and these disturbances may affect frequency and voltage [3], [4].
Critical clearing time (CCT) is the maximum time during which a fault must be cleared to maintain
system stability. The CCT is measured and compared with the fault clearing time (FCT) in direct stability
estimation methods. The transient system is known to be stable if the CCT is greater than the FCT [5]–[7].
The importance of CCT estimation is due to the development and expansion of the operational range
of generators. Usually, the relays are tuned to trip a signal by calculating the CCT obtained from
conventional methods and for different operating conditions. However, the relay may issue a wrong decision

if there is a change in these operating conditions. Accordingly, the researchers tended to use artificial
intelligence for calculating CCT and in different operating conditions [8], [9].
Several techniques have been used to assess transient stability, including the traditional time-domain
method, numerical integration, probabilistic methods based on the Labenov technique, recently artificial
intelligence techniques. The effect of adding flexible alternating current transmission systems (FACTS) to
enhance the transient stability of the system and increase the critical clearing time after a major fault or sudden
change in load levels has been studied by studied by Azeez and Abdelfattah [10]. Priyadi et al. [11] suggested
the control of unstable equilibrium point (CUEP) method to obtain CCT, and through this method, the critical
power of each generator in the system is determined with an allowable error of 0.01% and the control of the
unstable equilibrium point at any fault. The researchers proved that this method is more accurate to Determine
stability through numerical operations. Abdelaziz [12] used fuzzy logic technique to classify the system,
whether it is stable or not, and the results revealed that the proposed system is flexible and extendable. Nair et
al. [13] consider the range for which the value of the CCT changes with the change of the fault location, the
increase of the load systematically and the change of the value of the fault resistance. Variation of CCT is
observed using eigen value analysis method in MATLAB/PSAT platform. Sulistiawati et al. [14] used two
methods to calculate CCT, the first is numerical, which is the critical path method based on critical generation,
and the second method the CCT is learned by extreme learning machine (ELM) and this method has the ability
to calculate CCT with changing loads and for various faults, they showed that these methods give CCT is
accurate with error rate 0.33% for the neural networks (NN) method an average error of 0.06% for the (ELM)
method. After studying the transient stability of the oscillation equation and the equal area criterion, the
researcher Lin [15] clarified that there is a relationship between power factor and frequency with CCT, and this
relationship is direct with power factor and inverse with frequency. Sharma et al. [16] derive an equation or
formula linking CCT with the system parameter, where this formula gives an insight into the effect of system
components on transient stability such as system impedance and generator moment of inertia. The study was
conducted on a system 39 bus. Fuzzy logic (FL) used to estimate CCT in a multi-machine both IEEE-9bus and
IEEE-39 bus systems. These systems are modeled in MATLAB 2017/Simulink.
2. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE RESEARCH
CCT main the maximum allowable time for which the system remains stable after the occurrence of
the fault in the power system, evaluating the CCT is very important to maintain stability and not prone to
collapse after the fault. There are several methods used to calculate CCT, such as time domain simulation
(TDS), and numerical analysis of nonlinear differential equations. These methods give accurate results for a
long time as a result of the many iteration processes. This is so inefficient when utilized for transient stability
analysis. Because the disturbances occur very quickly in the system. Therefore, we need methods that can
reduce the required computing time to calculate CCT such as artificial intelligence methods. In this research,
fuzzy logic was used to reduce the computation time to calculate CCT. The results proved a high degree of
accuracy and speed of evaluation.
3. FUZZY LOGIC
FL is a way of dealing with undefined and uncertain data for problems that have more than one
solution. Logic is two types: binary logic and fuzzy logic. It was used by the scientist Lutfi Zadeh at the
University of California for the first time in 1965, as it was found that FL is multi-valued logic, as it builds
intermediate values between traditional values such as true/false and high/low. Fuzzy systems are an
alternative to traditional ideas they can be represented by organic and logical groups that have their origins in
ancient Greek philosophy the structure of the FL system is shown in Figure 1 [17], [18].
3.1. Fuzzification
It is the first part in the structure of FL in which the process of converting the regular (Crisp) value
entries into fuzzy variables of different degrees of belonging to the fuzzy groups. And these are ready for
processing in the fuzzy deduction machine. The fuzzy consists of a set of functions belonging to the fuzzy
groups including their shapes, number, maximum values, and the number of interventions between them in
determining the linguistic values of the fuzzy variables [19].
3.2. Rules base
It is a set of fuzzy laws that relate fuzzy inputs to outputs. There can be multiple entries with one
output. Setting rules is the vital and most important part when designing fuzzy logic, which is a set of logical
semantic rules in the form: If…..And….Then [19].

3.3. Inference engine
It represents the basis of the structure of FL, as it has the ability to represent human decision making
based on fundamentals of FL, using two main methods of inference. The first is the Min-Max method. The
second is fuzzy additive to be able to deduce FL actions using fuzzy implication and inference rules in FL,
i.e. the process of deduction is carried out based on the values of the inputs for fuzzy sets [20].
3.4. Defuzzification
Reverse fuzzy this is the last stage in the structure of FL. It is the opposite process of fuzzy, i.e.
converting fuzzy functions to regular functions (Crisp). There are several de-fuzzing methods that determine
the final output value as the centroid or center of gravity technique to find the equilibrium point of the
solution [21].

4. PROPOSED METHOD FOR OBTAINING CCT
4.1. TDS method [23]
The value of CCT is estimated from the simulation by increasing the value of the fault clearance
time until the system reaches an unstable state, as follows:
Step 1: Set an initial value for FCT=to.
Step 2: Impose initial time limits by decreasing the value of to by α to get the lower bound t1=to-α and
increasing the value of to by α to get the upper bound t2=to+α.
Step 3: The system is checked if it is stable or unstable. If it is stable, the lower bound value is replaced by
t1=t1+α and the upper bound value is replaced with the value t2=t2+α. Then the system stability is checked at
the new values and we continue to change the value of the lower and upper bound until we get that at one of
these two values the system is stable and at the other value, the system is unstable. Move to the step 4.
Step 4: The middle value between the upper and lower bounds is tested. If the system is stable, the lower
bound value is replaced with the median value. If the system is unstable, the upper bound value is replaced
by the median value to perform the time calculation again.
Step 5: This process continues until we reach the value of the acceptable tolerance between the limits, then
the value of CCT is determined to be the upper limit t2.
4.2. Fuzzy logic method
Figure 2 represent the flowchart of the proposed algorithm to estimate the CCT using FL. The value
of the CCT is estimated using two-step FL: the first step is to calculate Δt, which represents the output of the
FL, while maximum angle deviation (δmax) represents the input of the FL with triangular membership
functions for its mathematical simplicity for representation of eight of linguistic variable (δmax) with eight of
the linguistic variables for output as shown Figure 3. For the input δmax and output Δt, the proposed fuzzy
system is divided as subsets as follows: vs (very small), ms (medium small), ls (large small), sl (small large),
mL (medium large), vl (very large), ll (large large), ll1 (large large1), ss (small small).
The second step is to classify the system if it is a stable or unstable system, based on two inputs for
FL, the first input is the mechanical input power (Pm), and as it is known, the higher the load of the system,
the greater the chance of the system going into an unstable state. ‘Pm’ get from load flow results. The second
input is the average acceleration (Aav) during the fault, which represents the mean value of the two rotor
angular accelerations A1 at the moment of fault, and A2 at the moment of clearing the fault. The two features
are specified from a transient stability study for a machine. The two previous variables, which are the inputs
of the proposed FL system, to classify the system if it is stable or unstable are divided as subsets as:
- Pm: L (light), N (normal), H (high)
- Aav: VS (very small), S (small), M (medium), L (large), VL (very large)
Figure 4 show the membership functions for inputs Pm and Ava and output.

5. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The fuzzy logic system (FLS) method and TDS method are carried out to estimate the CCT using
the IEEE 9-Bus system and NE 39-Bus system as shown in Figures 5 and 6, respectively and the information
of these systems are appearing in [24], [25]. Simulation is carried out by applying a three-phase fault to an
evaluation of the performance of the proposed method. Figure 7 shows the voltage signals with time after
three phase fault occurs between bus 8 and bus 9 in the IEEE 9-Bus system at a time equal to 0.5 sec. It is
obvious that the voltage values decrease after the fault with different values depending on the location of the
buses from the location of the fault. However, these values return to stability at values very near the nominal
values at FCT is 0.714 sec. Increasing the value of FCT to 0.715 sec causes the system to lose its stability as
shown in Figure 8. The same fault was applied to the NE 39-Bus system between bus 25 and bus 26.
Figures 9 and 10 show the signal voltages with time for all buses when the FCT is equal to 0.71 and 0.72 sec
respectively. We notice from Figure 9 that the system maintained its stability while it lost its stability in
Figure 10.

Table 1 shows the results of the estimation of CCT values and performance time obtained from the
TDS method and the proposed FLS method for IEEE 9-Bus after applying a three-phase fault in different
locations and Table 2 shows the same results for NE 39-Bus system. Tables 1 and 2 shows the estimated
values of CCT and the performance time for each of the FL method and the TDS method. From the tables,
we note that the error for all cases is a small percentage, and this proves the accuracy of estimating values of
CCT in the FL method compared with the TDS method, in addition to reducing the time of performance by
FL method to half of the time of performance using the TDS method. tables pointed that the fault is near that
certain bus and the Fault bus number is The line that was taken out of the system

6. CONCLUSION
An accuracy and fast calculation methodology for the estimation of CCT is suggested in this paper,
by using two simulation systems IEEE 9-bus and NE 39-Bus to test the capabilities of the proposed
algorithm. The simulation results show the efficiency of the FL method, after calculating the CCT for both
methods and calculating the % error, which does not exceed 5%. The FL method is also used to reduce the
performance time compared to the TDS simulation method. Where this method proved the ability to save
time by approximately 1/2 of the performance time compared to the TDS method.
