Impact analysis of actuator torque degradation on the IRB 120 robot performan...IJECEIAES
Actuators in a robot system may become faulty during their life cycle. Locked joints, free-moving joints, and the loss of actuator torque are common faulty types of robot joints where the actuators fail. Locked and free-moving joint issues are addressed by many published articles, whereas the actuator torque loss still opens attractive investigation challenges. The objectives of this study are to classify the loss of robot actuator torque, named actuator torque degradation, into three different cases: Boundary degradation of torque, boundary degradation of torque rate, and proportional degradation of torque, and to analyze their impact on the performance of a typical 6-DOF robot (i.e., the IRB 120 robot). Typically, controllers of robots are not pre-designed specifically for anticipating these faults. To isolate and focus on the impact of only actuator torque degradation faults, all robot parameters are assumed to be known precisely, and a popular closed-loop controller is used to investigate the robot’s responses under these faults. By exploiting MATLAB-the reliable simulation environment, a simscape-based quasi-physical model of the robot is built and utilized instead of an actual expensive prototype. The simulation results indicate that the robot responses cannot follow the desired path properly in most fault cases.

AN EFFICIENT ALGORITHM FOR WRAPPER AND TAM CO-OPTIMIZATION TO REDUCE TEST APP...IAEME Publication
System-on-Chip (SOC) designs composed of many embedded cores are ubiquitous in today’s integrated circuits. Each of these cores requires to be tested separately after manufacturing of the SoC. That’s why, modular testing is adopted for core-based SoCs, as it promotes test reuse and permits the cores to be tested without comprehensive knowledge about their internal structural details. Such modular testing triggers the need of a special test access mechanism (TAM) to build communication between core I/Os and TAM and promises to minimize overall test time. In this paper, various issues are analyzed to optimize the Wrapper and TAM, which comprises the optimal partitioning of TAM width, assignment of cores to partitioned TAM width etc.

photovoltaic (PV) systems. It is well-known that partial shading
is often encountered in PV system issue with many
consequences. In this research, PV array is connected using
TCT (total cross-tied) configuration including sensors to
measure voltage and currents. The sensors provide inputs for
MPPT controller in order to achieve optimum output power.
The Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) is

present a new method for detecting partial condition of
photovoltaic TCT configuration using only 3 sensors. Thus,
this method can streamline the time and reduce operating
costs.

The system consists of an AC grid connected to conventional AC loads and a DC grid connected to photovoltaic arrays, DC loads, and a battery. An intelligent load flow control system allows users to prioritize devices as critical or non-critical and divert power accordingly. The system aims to reduce multiple AC-DC conversions through direct connections of DC sources and loads, improving efficiency over individual AC or DC grids. Power electronic interfaces like DC-DC converters and a modified sine wave inverter are used to integrate the AC and DC systems. A microprocessor-based intelligent load monitoring system with a web interface is also incorporated.
Contribution to the optimization of energy withdrawn from a PV panel using an...saad motahhir
Considering the high initial capital cost of photovoltaic (PV) panels and their low conversion efficiency, it is imperative to operate the PV system at the maximum power point (MPP). In this context, our goal in this thesis is to develop and improve the PV system, by contributing to the optimization of energy withdrawn from PV panel using an embedded system. For this purpose, in order to simulate and test MPPT algorithm, the model of the PV panel should be first studied in accordance with the real behavior of the PV panel. Therefore, the single diode model of the PV panel is introduced in Matlab/Simulink and PSIM. Moreover, for the first time, the PV panel model is developed in Proteus; an experimental test bench was built to validate the developed model. On the other hand, this work proposes a modified incremental conductance (INC) algorithm to improve the MPP tracker (MPPT) capability for PV system when the irradiation is suddenly modified. Three modifications are made in the INC algorithm, which are described as follows: (1) A check to identify the increase in irradiation and make a correct decision. (2) Eliminate the all-division computations in the INC algorithm and make the algorithm structure simpler allowing the algorithm to be easily implemented by a low-cost embedded system. (3) A modified variable step INC algorithm is used, which can reduce the steady-state oscillations and improve the tracking speed under sudden irradiance variation. The first modification is simulated using PSIM through “Software in the Loop” test and the results show that the modified algorithm provides an accurate response to a sudden variation of solar irradiation with an efficiency of 98.8 %. The second modification is simulated using the PV panel model proposed in Proteus. For verification, a hardware test bench is implemented by using Arduino Uno board in which the low-cost Atmega328 microcontroller is integrated. This has led to a low-cost PV system with an efficiency of 98.5 %. The third modification is developed following the techniques employed in the automotive and aeronautical embedded system. This is done by following the V-cycle development process, which means that our controller will be validated using “Model in the Loop/Software in the Loop/Processor in the Loop” tests. In this sense, integrating the MPPT embedded system in the automotive or the aeronautical area will be possible. It should be mentioned that Matlab/Simulink is used for MIL/SIL/PIL tests, thus STM32F4 board is used for PIL test. On the other side, if minimizing the cost of the PV system is not important than guarantying a very high level of robustness and efficiency, it is required to use a more powerful method. Therefore in this thesis, we design and implement MPPT based on Kalman Filter. The expected outcome of this proposal is an efficient MPPT method which presents a very high level of robustness, reliability and accuracy. The obtained results clearly highlight the superiority of

The solar system is designed with main parts: photovoltaic (PV) panel, direct current/direct current (DC/DC) converter, inverter, filter, and in addition, the battery is used to save energy in the event that there is an increased demand for energy and not to provide solar radiation, as well as saving energy in the case of generation more than demand. This work was done using the matrix laboratory (MATLAB) simulink program.

To detect defects of solar panel and understand the effect of external parameters such as fluctuations in illumination, temperature, and the effect of a type of dust on a photovoltaic (PV) panel, it is essential to plot the Ipv=f(Vpv) characteristic of the PV panel, and the simplest way to plot this I-V characteristic is to use a variable resistor. This paper presents a study of comparison and combination between two methods: capacitive and electronic loading to track I-V characteristic. The comparison was performed in terms of accuracy, response time and instrumentation cost used in each circuit, under standard temperature and illumination conditions by using polycrystalline solar panel type SX330J and monocrystalline solar panels type ET-M53630. The whole system is based on simple components, less expensive and especially widely used in laboratories. The results will be between the datasheet of the manufacturer with the experimental data, refinements and improvements concerning the number of points and the trace time have been made by combining these two methods.

Contribution to the optimization of energy withdrawn from a PV panel using an...saad motahhir
Considering the high initial capital cost of photovoltaic (PV) panels and their low conversion efficiency, it is imperative to operate the PV system at the maximum power point (MPP). In this context, our goal in this thesis is to develop and improve the PV system, by contributing to the optimization of energy withdrawn from PV panel using an embedded system. For this purpose, in order to simulate and test MPPT algorithm, the model of the PV panel should be first studied in accordance with the real behavior of the PV panel. Therefore, the single diode model of the PV panel is introduced in Matlab/Simulink and PSIM. Moreover, for the first time, the PV panel model is developed in Proteus; an experimental test bench was built to validate the developed model. On the other hand, this work proposes a modified incremental conductance (INC) algorithm to improve the MPP tracker (MPPT) capability for PV system when the irradiation is suddenly modified. Three modifications are made in the INC algorithm, which are described as follows: (1) A check to identify the increase in irradiation and make a correct decision. (2) Eliminate the all-division computations in the INC algorithm and make the algorithm structure simpler allowing the algorithm to be easily implemented by a low-cost embedded system. (3) A modified variable step INC algorithm is used, which can reduce the steady-state oscillations and improve the tracking speed under sudden irradiance variation. The first modification is simulated using PSIM through “Software in the Loop” test and the results show that the modified algorithm provides an accurate response to a sudden variation of solar irradiation with an efficiency of 98.8 %. The second modification is simulated using the PV panel model proposed in Proteus. For verification, a hardware test bench is implemented by using Arduino Uno board in which the low-cost Atmega328 microcontroller is integrated. This has led to a low-cost PV system with an efficiency of 98.5 %. The third modification is developed following the techniques employed in the automotive and aeronautical embedded system. This is done by following the V-cycle development process, which means that our controller will be validated using “Model in the Loop/Software in the Loop/Processor in the Loop” tests. In this sense, integrating the MPPT embedded system in the automotive or the aeronautical area will be possible. It should be mentioned that Matlab/Simulink is used for MIL/SIL/PIL tests, thus STM32F4 board is used for PIL test. On the other side, if minimizing the cost of the PV system is not important than guarantying a very high level of robustness and efficiency, it is required to use a more powerful method. Therefore in this thesis, we design and implement MPPT based on Kalman Filter. The expected outcome of this proposal is an efficient MPPT method which presents a very high level of robustness, reliability and accuracy. The obtained results clearly highlight the superiority of

Ion propulsion technology is proven to be feasible in the earth’s atmosphere. The study presented in this article shows the design of EHD thrusters and power supply for ion propulsion drones along with performance optimization of high-voltage power supply for endurance in earth’s atmosphere.
Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...bijceesjournal
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.
Electric vehicle and photovoltaic advanced roles in enhancing the financial p...IJECEIAES
Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network

An improved modulation technique suitable for a three level flying capacitor ...IJECEIAES
This research paper introduces an innovative modulation technique for controlling a 3-level flying capacitor multilevel inverter (FCMLI), aiming to streamline the modulation process in contrast to conventional methods. The proposed
simplified modulation technique paves the way for more straightforward and
efficient control of multilevel inverters, enabling their widespread adoption and
integration into modern power electronic systems. Through the amalgamation of
sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) with a high-frequency square wave
pulse, this controlling technique attains energy equilibrium across the coupling
capacitor. The modulation scheme incorporates a simplified switching pattern
and a decreased count of voltage references, thereby simplifying the control
algorithm.
Advanced control scheme of doubly fed induction generator for wind turbine us...IJECEIAES
This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.
