nstrumentation is the art of science of measurement and control. It is an applied
science that deals with analysis and design of systems for measurement purposes such as
quantify or expressing a variable numerically, determine or ascertain the value
(magnitude) of some particular phenomena, indicate record, register, signal, or perform
some operation on the value it has determined. Measurement is the process of quantifying
input quantity.
The role of measurement in ones country development particularly in the
advancement of science and technology is huge; this is because of the need or eagerness
for understanding of events or physical phenomenon.

I have prepare notes for Mechanical vibration as per mumbai university syllabus.In that i have solved only reference example,and i have given cited for that example (like ss rao and seto).While referring it i felt "seto" is very nice book.
Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
Hybrid optimization of pumped hydro system and solar- Engr. Abdul-Azeez.pdffxintegritypublishin
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.

10. You will see that it is very similar to the basic Wheatstone Bridge circuit, however
one of the resistors has been swapped for a strain gauge. You know that how each
strain gauge has a known resistance when zero strain is applied to it, if this
resistance is the same as the value of the other three resistors then when zero
stress is applied, Vout will also be zero. As the object that the gauge is attached
to has a force applied to it, the gauge undergoes a strain and as a result its
resistance changes.

11. Sometimes the quarter-bridge circuit encounters problems when there are
changeable temperatures. Unfortunately the resistance of the strain gauge can vary
as the temperature changes causing the readings to become unreliable. To overcome
this problem, a half bridge setup shown in fig. is often preferred. The half-bridge
configuration is where two out of 4 resistors are replaced with strain-gauges. So
temperature ranges will change resistance by the same proportion for both,
effectively canceling each other.
Wheatstone Half Bridge with Dummy Strain Gauge configuration

12. Where possible, it is often preferable to replace all four of the resistors in the
circuit with strain gauges known as a Full Bridge circuit. This circuit consists of
two complimentary pairs when each pair is like the causes in the half-bridge
circuit. The benefit that this give is that of a great sensitivity to slight changes in
the strain placed on the specimen., The main benefit of this circuit over the
other two options is that it is linear whereas both the quarter and half bridge
configurations are not. This means that the output voltage on the full-bridge is
directly proportional to the applied force and no approximation is necessary.
