Study of Aircraft Wing with Emphasis on Vibration CharacteristicsIJERA Editor
It is essential that the structural stability of the aircraft wings is a major consideration in the design of the aircraft. Many studies are being carried out for the design of the wings across the globe by the researches to strengthen the aircraft wings for steady and sturdy structures for dynamic conditions. The design of the aircraft wing using NACA standards is been discussed in this work. The wing analysis is carried out by using computer numerical analysis tool, viz., CAD/CAE and CFD. The necessary inputs for carrying out the structural analysis with emphasis on the vibration are obtained by CFD analysis. The deformation of the wing structures are investigated with respect to the standard airflow velocity. The velocity of air at the inlet is taken as 122 m/s (438 km/h), considering service ceiling of 7625 m at moderate temperature. The modal analysis is considered to analyse the wing to determine the natural frequency for vibration characteristics of the wing structure. The study of the effect of the stresses and deformations of the wing structure on the vibration characteristics of the wing is carried out to understand the effect of stress on natural frequency of the aircraft wing structure. Hence it is possible to correlate the effect of wind pressure on the vibration of the wing structure for particular design of the wing (NACA). The CFD results revealed that the pressure on the upper surface of the wing for all the wing section planes (butt planes-BL) is less, about -4.97e3N/mm2, as compared to the pressure on the lower surface, about 1.08e4 N/mm2, which satisfy the theory of lift generation. The pre-stressed modal analysis shows the correlation of the stress, deformation and the corresponding mode of vibration. It is found that the maximum deformation of 17.164 mm is corresponding to the modal frequency of 179.65 Hz which can be considered as design frequency of the wing structure. However the fundamental natural frequency of the wing structure is 10.352 Hz for the deformation of 11.383 mm.
COMPARISON OF ALUMINUM & COMPOSITE MATERIALS FOR SHIP PROPELLER USING FEAIjripublishers Ijri
Ships and underwater vehicles like submarine and torpedoes use propeller for propulsion. In general, propellers are
used to develop significant thrust to propel the vehicle at its operational speed and RPM. The blade geometry and design
are complex involving many controlling parameters. Propeller with conventional isotropic materials creates more vibration
and noise in their operation. It is undesirable in stealth point of view. In the recent years the increased need for
light weight structural element with acoustic insulation has led to the use of fiber reinforced multi layered composite
propeller. The present work is aimed at the static and dynamic analysis of alluminium as well as composite propeller
which is a combination of GFRP (Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastics) and CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics) materials.
Modeling and analyzing the propeller blade of a underwater vehicle for their strength are carried out in the present
work. A propeller is a complex geometry and requires high end modeling in its software. The solid model of propeller is
developed in CATIA V5 R17. HEXA mesh is generated for the model using HYPERMESH. Static, Eigen and frequency
responses analysis of both alluminium and composite propeller are carried out in ANSYS. Inter laminar shear stresses
are calculated for composite propeller by varying the number of layers. The stresses obtained are well within the limit of
elastic property of the materials. The natural frequencies of composite propeller are found to be higher than that of alluminium
propeller and the harmonic analysis of composite propeller are also better than that of alluminium propeller.

An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.
