Advancements in technology unveil a myriad of electrical and electronic breakthroughs geared towards efficiently harnessing limited resources to meet human energy demands. The optimization of hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems plays a pivotal role in utilizing natural resources effectively. This initiative not only benefits humanity but also fosters environmental sustainability. The study investigated the design optimization of these hybrid systems, focusing on understanding solar radiation patterns, identifying geographical influences on solar radiation, formulating a mathematical model for system optimization, and determining the optimal configuration of PV panels and pumped hydro storage. Through a comparative analysis approach and eight weeks of data collection, the study addressed key research questions related to solar radiation patterns and optimal system design. The findings highlighted regions with heightened solar radiation levels, showcasing substantial potential for power generation and emphasizing the system's efficiency. Optimizing system design significantly boosted power generation, promoted renewable energy utilization, and enhanced energy storage capacity. The study underscored the benefits of optimizing hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems for sustainable energy usage. Optimizing the design of solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems as examined across diverse climatic conditions in a developing country, not only enhances power generation but also improves the integration of renewable energy sources and boosts energy storage capacities, particularly beneficial for less economically prosperous regions. Additionally, the study provides valuable insights for advancing energy research in economically viable areas. Recommendations included conducting site-specific assessments, utilizing advanced modeling tools, implementing regular maintenance protocols, and enhancing communication among system components.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

Terzaghi's soil bearing capacity theory, developed by Karl Terzaghi, is a fundamental principle in geotechnical engineering used to determine the bearing capacity of shallow foundations. This theory provides a method to calculate the ultimate bearing capacity of soil, which is the maximum load per unit area that the soil can support without undergoing shear failure.

6. Functional Blocks of a typical clinical Electrocardiograph Machine
• Protection circuit
• Lead selector
• Calibration signal
• Preamplifier
• Isolation circuit
• Driven right leg circuit
• Driver amplifier
• Memory system
• Microcomputer
• Recorder / printer
7. Protection Circuit
Includes protection devices so that high voltages that may appear across the
input to the ECG machine under certain conditions do not damage it.
8. Lead selector
Each electrode connected to the subject is attached to the lead selector of the
ECG machine.
• Determines which electrodes are necessary for a particular lead and
connects them to the remainder of the circuit.
• The connections for the central terminal are made here.
• This block can be controlled by the operator or by microcomputer of the
electrocardiograph in automatic mode.
• It selects one or more leads to be recorded
• In automatic mode, each of the 12 lead is recorded for short duration
(10s)
9. Calibration Signal
A 1mV calibration signal is momentarily introduced into the electrocardiograph
for each channel that is recorded.
10. Pre-amplifier
• The input preamplifier stage carries out the initial amplification of the ECG.
• This stage should have a very high input impedance and a high CMRR.
• A typical preamplifier stage can be a differential amplifier that consists of
three Op-amps as shown in the figure.
• A gain control switch is generally included as a part of this stage.
11. Isolation circuit
Contains a barrier to the passage of current from the power line (50 or 60 Hz).
For instance, if the patient came in contact with a 120V line, this barrier will prevent the
dangerous currents from flowing from the patient through the amplifier to the ground of the
recorder / microcomputer.
The isolation circuits are primarily for the protection of the patient in that they eliminate the
hazard of electric shock resulting from interacting among the patient, the electrocardiograph
and other electric devices in the patient’s environment.
12. Driven right leg circuit
• Used to minimize the common mode interference.
• This circuit provides a reference point on the patient that normally is at
ground potential.
• This connection is made to an electrode on the patients’ right leg.
14. Driver amplifier
• This amplifies the ECG to a level at which it can appropriately record the signal on
the recorder.
• This stage also carries out the Band Pass filtering of the electrocardiograph to give
the frequency characteristics as desired.
• Its input should be AC-coupled so that the offset voltages amplified by the
preamplifier are not seen at its input. These DC voltages, when amplified by this stage,
may cause it to saturate.
• Also, it often has a zero-offset control that is used to position the signal on the chart
paper. This control adjusts the DC level of the output signal.
15. Memory system
• Modern ECG machines store the graphs in memory as well as display on the paper
chart.
The signal is first digitized by an ADC and then, the samples from each lead are stored in
the memory.
• Patient information entered via keyboard is also stored. The microcomputer controls
this activity.
16. Microcomputer
• This controls the overall operation of the machine
• In certain machines, preliminary analysis of ECG also can be done to
determine many cardiovascular factors like heart rate, intervals, some
types of arrhythmias.
• A keyboard and a display unit help the operator to communicate with the
microcomputer.
• The operator can select several modes of operation by
invoking the respective programs.
17. Recorder / Printer
• This provides a hard copy of the recorded ECG signal
• This also prints the patient data and other clinical information entered by
the operator and the results of automatic analysis of the ECG.
• Digitized ECGs can also be stored in Flash Drives or DVDs.
18. Problems Frequently Encountered
There are many factors that must be taken into consideration in the design and
applications of Electrocardiograph as well as other Biopotential amplifiers. Those
are-
Frequency Distortion
Saturation or Cut-Off Distortion
Ground Loops
Open Lead Wires
Artifact from Large Electric Transients
Interference from Electric Devices
Other sources of Electric Interference
19. Frequency Distortion
• The ECG machine does not always meet the frequency response standards.
• High Frequency distortion rounds of the sharp corners of the waveforms and
diminishes the amplitude of QRS complex.
• An instrument that have a frequency response of 1 to 150 Hz shows low
frequency distortion.
• Effect: Baseline does not remain horizontal. Monophasic waves in ECG
appears to be more Biphasic.
