Low power architecture of logic gates using adiabatic techniquesnooriasukmaningtyas
The growing significance of portable systems to limit power consumption in ultra-large-scale-integration chips of very high density, has recently led to rapid and inventive progresses in low-power design. The most effective technique is adiabatic logic circuit design in energy-efficient hardware. This paper presents two adiabatic approaches for the design of low power circuits, modified positive feedback adiabatic logic (modified PFAL) and the other is direct current diode based positive feedback adiabatic logic (DC-DB PFAL). Logic gates are the preliminary components in any digital circuit design. By improving the performance of basic gates, one can improvise the whole system performance. In this paper proposed circuit design of the low power architecture of OR/NOR, AND/NAND, and XOR/XNOR gates are presented using the said approaches and their results are analyzed for powerdissipation, delay, power-delay-product and rise time and compared with the other adiabatic techniques along with the conventional complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) designs reported in the literature. It has been found that the designs with DC-DB PFAL technique outperform with the percentage improvement of 65% for NOR gate and 7% for NAND gate and 34% for XNOR gate over the modified PFAL techniques at 10 MHz respectively.

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%.

5. Welding processes
Welding is a process of joining similar or dissimilar metals by application
of heat with or without application of pressure and addition of filler material
OR
Welding is defined as an localized coalescence of metals, where in
coalescence is obtained by heating to suitable temperature, with or without the
application of pressure and with or without the use of filler metal.
7. • Until the end of the 19th century,
the only welding process was
forge welding, which blacksmiths
had used for centuries to join
iron and steel by heating and
hammering them.
• Arc welding and oxyfuel welding
were among the first processes
to develop late in the century,
and resistance welding followed
soon after.
History of welding
8. Welding, was transformed during the 19th century. In 1802,
Russian scientist Vasily Perov discovered the electric arc
and subsequently proposed its possible practical
applications, including welding.
From this many other forms, including current forms, have
been born including:
Carbon arc welding
Alternating current welding
Resistance welding
Oxyfuel welding
History of welding
9. Often done by melting the
work pieces and
adding a filler material
to form a pool of
molten material (the
weld pool) that cools to
become a strong joint.
Pressure sometimes
used in conjunction
with heat, or by itself, to
produce the weld.
How is it done?
10. TYPES OF WELDING :
Fusion Welding or Non-Pressure Welding:
The material at the joint is heated to a molten state and
allowed to solidify
(Ex)- Gas welding, Arc welding
• Plastic Welding or Pressure Welding:

The surface of a fusion weld exposed on the side from which the
weld has been made.
Weld Root
Zone on the side of the first run furthest from the welder.

44. ARC WELDING
The arc welding is a fusion welding process in which the heat required to fuse the
metal is obtained from an electric arc between the base metal and an electrode.
The electric arc is produced when two conductors are touches together and then
separated by a small gap of 2 to 4 mm, such that the current continues to flow,
through the air. The temperature produced by the electric arc is about 4000°C to
6000°C.

A metal electrode is used which supplies the filler metal. The electrode may be
flux coated or bare. In case of bare electrode, extra flux material is supplied. Both
direct current (D.C.) and alternating current (A.C.) are used for arc welding.
The alternating current for arc is obtained from a step down transformer. The
transformer receives current from the main supply at 220 to 440 volts and step
down to required voltage i.e., 80 to 100 volts. The direct current for arc is usually
obtained from a generator driven by either an electric motor, or patrol or diesel
engine.
An open circuit voltage (for striking of arc) in case of D.C. welding is 60 to 80 volts
while a closed circuit voltage (for maintaining the arc) is 15 to 25 volts
46. PROCEDURE OF ELECTRIC ARC WELDING
4
6
First of all, metal pieces to be weld are thoroughly cleaned to remove the dust,
dirt, grease, oil, etc. Then the work piece should be firmly held in suitable
fixtures. Insert a suitable electrode in the electrode holder at an angle of 60 to
80° with the work piece.
Select the proper current and polarity. The spot are marked by the arc at the
places where welding is to be done. The welding is done by making contact of
the electrode with the work and then separating the electrode to a proper
distance to produce an arc.
47. PROCEDURE OF ELECTRIC
ARC WELDING
When the arc is obtained, intense heat so produced, melts the work below the
arc, and forming a molten metal pool. A small depression is formed in the work
and the molten metal is deposited around the edge of this depression. It is
called arc crator. The slag is brushed off easily after the joint has cooled. After
welding is over, the electrode holder should be taken out quickly to break the
arc and the supply of current is switched off.

Both D.C. (direct current) and A.C. (alternating current) are used to produce an arc in
electric arc welding. Both have their own advantages and applications.

generator or from a solid state rectifier.
The capacities of D.C. machine are:

0
When D.C. current is used for welding, the following two types of polarity are
available:
(i)Straight or positive polarity.
(ii)Reverse or negative polarity.
When the work is made positive and electrode as negative then polarity is called
straight or positive polarity.
In straight polarity, about 67% of heat is distributed at the work (positive terminal)
and 33% on the electrode (negative terminal). The straight polarity is used where
more heat is required at the work. The ferrous metal such as mild steel, with faster
speed and sound weld, uses this polarity.
51. SIGNIFICANCE OF POLARITY
On the other hand, when the work is made negative and electrode as positive then
polarity is known as reverse or negative polarity, as shown in Fig. 7.16 (b).
In reverse polarity, about 67% of heat is liberated at the electrode (positive terminal)
and 33% on the work (negative terminal).
The reverse polarity is used where less heat is required at the work as in case of thin
sheet metal weld. The non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, brass, and bronze
nickel are welded with reverse polarity.

Arc welding electrodes can be classified into two broad categories:
1.Non-Consumable electrodes.
2.Consumable electrodes.
1.Non-Consumable Electrodes:
These electrodes do not consumed during the welding operation, hence they named,
non-consumable electrodes. They are generally made of carbon, graphite or
tungsten. Carbon electrodes are softer while tungsten and graphite electrodes are
hard and brittle.
Carbon and graphite electrodes can be used only for D.C. welding, while tungston
electrodes can be used for both D.C. and A.C. welding. The filler material is added
separately when these types of electrodes are used. Since, the electrodes do not
consumed, the arc obtained is stable.
2.Consumable Electrodes:
These electrodes get melted during welding operation, and supply the filler material.
They are generally made with similar composition as the metal to be welded.
58. Advantages of Arc Welding
Some of the chief advantages of the electric arc welding are given as
follows −
The electric arc welding is the suitable welding process for high speed
welds.
Apparatus required for arc welding is very simple and portable.
The electric arc welding gives superior temperature at the point of welding.
Electric arc welding can work on both AC and DC supply.
It is inexpensive to install.
Disadvantages of Electric Arc Welding
The disadvantages of electric arc welding are as follows −
The welding process with electric arc welding requires skilled operators.
Electric arc welding cannot be used for welding of reactive metals such as
aluminium, titanium, etc.
Electric arc welding is not suitable for welding thin metals.
59. Applications of Electric Arc Welding
The important applications of electric arc welding are as
follows −
Electric arc welding is used in repairing of broken parts of
machines.
It is used for welding of cast iron or steel housings and
frames.
Electric arc welding is used in various industries such as
automotive industries, construction industries, mechanical
industries, etc.
Electric welding is also used for welding process in
shipbuilding.

Resistance Welding
The welding process studied so far are fusion-welding processes
where only heat is applied in the joint. In contrast, resistance
welding process is a fusion-welding process where both heat
and pressure applied on the joint but no filler metal or flux is
added.
The heat necessary for the melting of the joint is obtained by the
heating effect of the electrical resistance of the joint and hence,
the name resistance welding.
61. 6
1
Resistance Welding
Principle
In resistance welding (RW), a low voltage (typically 1 V) and very
high current (typically 15000 A) is passed through the joint for a
very short time (typically 0.25 Sec). This high amperage heats the
joint, due to the contact resistance at the joint and melts it.
The pressure on the joint is continuously maintained and the
metal fuses together under this pressure.
The heat generated in resistance welding can be expressed as:
H = k I² R t
62. 6
2
Resistance Welding
H = k I² R t
Where,
H = the total heat generated in the work, J
I = electric current, A
R = the resistance of the joint, ohms
t = time for which the electric current is passing through the joint, Sec
k = a constant to account for the heat losses from the weld joint.
The resistance of the joint, R, is a complex factor to know because it is
composed of the
a) Resistance of the electrode,
b) Contact resistance between the electrode and the workpiece,
c) Contact resistance between the two workpiece plates, and
d) Resistance of the workpiece plates.
63. 6

Resistance Welding
1. The schematic representation of the resistance welding is shown
and the main requirement of the process is the low voltage and
high current power supply.
2. This is obtained by means of a step down transformer with a
provision to have different tappings on the primary side as
required for different materials.
3. The secondary windings are connected to the electrodes, which
are made of copper to reduce their electrical resistance.
4. The time of the electric supply needs to be closely controlled so
that the heat released is just enough to melt the joint and the
subsequent fusion takes place due to the force on the joint.
64. 6
5
Resistance Welding
5. The force required can be provided either mechanically,
hydraulically or pneumatically.
6. To precisely control the time, sophisticated electronic timers are
available.
7. The critical variable in a resistance welding process is the contact
resistance between the two workpiece plates and their
resistances themselves.
8. The contact resistance is affected by the surface finish on the
plates, since the rougher surfaces have higher contact resistance.
65. 6
6
Resistance Welding
9. The contact resistance also will be affected by the cleanliness of
the surface.
10. Oxides or other contaminants if present, should be removed
before attempting resistance welding.
11. The lower resistance of the joint requires very high currents to
provide enough heat to melt it.
12. The average resistance may be of the order of 100 micro ohms,
as a result, the current required would be of the order of tens of
thousands of amperes. With a 10 000 A current passing for 0.1
sec, the heat liberated is
H= (10 000)²(0.0001) (0.1) = 1000 J
66. 6
7
Resistance Welding
13. This is typical for the welding of 1-mm thick sheets.
14. The actual heat required for melting would be the order of 339 J.
15. The rest of the heat is actually utilized in heating the surrounding
areas and lost at other points.
16. The welding force used has the effect of decreasing the contact
resistance and consequently, an increase in the welding current
for the proper fusion.
67. 6
8 Types of Resistance Welding
Following are the 4 different types of resistance
welding:
1. Spot resistance welding
2. Projection resistance welding
3. Seam resistance welding
4. Flash or Butt resistance welding
78. THERMIT WELDING

Is a process that uses heat from an exothermic reaction to produce
coalescence between metals. The name is derived from 'thermite' the
generic name given to reactions between metal oxides and reducing
agents.
82. 83
Forge Welding
1. Forge welding (FOW) is a solid-state welding process that joins
two pieces of metal by heating them to a high temperature and
then hammering them together.
2. It may also consist of heating and forcing the metals together
with presses or other means, creating enough pressure to
cause plastic deformation at the weld surfaces.
3. The process is one of the simplest methods of joining metals and
has been used since ancient times.
4. Forge welding is versatile, being able to join a host of similar and
dissimilar metals.
5. With the invention of electrical and gas welding methods during
the industrial revolution, manual forge-welding has been largely
replaced, although automated forge-welding is a common
manufacturing process.
84. 85
Applications Forge Welding
The significant applications of weld forging in blacksmithing
include;
1. It is used to create a more substantial metal from smaller
pieces by allowing blacksmiths to join metal and steel.
2. It is particularly useful in the welding process of weapons like
swords.
3. It is crucial in creating architectural structures such as gates
and prison cells.
4. It is useful in the welding barrels of shotguns.
5. Forge welding is usually employed in the production of
various cookware.
85. 86
Advantages Forge Welding
The advantages of forge welding include;
1. It is relatively straightforward and less complicated.
2. It can easily be carried out by most blacksmiths because it
doesn’t cost much and requires only small pieces of metal.
3. Forge melting is sufficient to join both dissimilar and similar
metals.
4. The weld joint usually takes most of its properties from the
base material.
5. Forge welding of metals does not require any filler material
to be reliable.
86. 87
Disadvantages Forge Welding
The disadvantages of blacksmithing include;
1. It is not useful for mass production of materials.
2. It is preferable for steel and iron.
3. The forge welding process is relatively slow.
87. 88
Heat Affected Zone
The heat affected zone (HAZ) is a non-melted area of metal that has undergone
changes in material properties as a result of being exposed to high
temperatures. These changes in material property are usually as a result of
welding or high-heat cutting. The HAZ is the area between the weld or cut and
the base (unaffected), parent metal.
The HAZ area can vary in severity and size depending on the properties of the
materials, the concentration and intensity of the heat, and the welding or cutting
process used.
89. 90
Heat Affected Zone
What are the Causes of Heat-Affected Zones?
1. The heating associated with welding and/or cutting generally
uses temperatures up to and often exceeding the
temperature of melting of the material.
2. The heating and cooling thermal cycle associated with these
processes is different to whatever processing has occurred
with the parent material previously. This leads to a change in
microstructure associated with the heating and cooling
process.
90. 91
Heat Affected Zone
3. The size of a heat affected zone is influenced by the level of
thermal diffusivity, which is dependent on the thermal
conductivity, density and specific heat of a substance as well
as the amount of heat going in to the material.
4. Those materials with a high level of thermal diffusivity are
able to transfer variations of heat faster, meaning they cool
quicker and, as a result, the HAZ width is reduced.
5. On the other hand, those materials with a lower coefficient
retain the heat, meaning that that the HAZ is wider.
6. Generally speaking, the extension of the HAZ is dependent on
the amount of heat applied, the duration of exposure to heat
and the properties of the material itself. When a material is
exposed to greater amounts of energy for longer periods the
HAZ is larger.
91. 92
Heat Affected Zone
7. With regard to welding procedures, those processes with low
heat input will cool faster, leading to a smaller HAZ, whereas
high heat input will have a slower rate of cooling, leading to a
larger HAZ in the same material.
8. In addition, the size of the HAZ also grows as the speed of the
welding process decreases. Weld geometry is another factor
that plays a role in the HAZ size, as it affects the heat sink, and a
larger heat sink generally leads to faster cooling.
9. High temperature cutting operations can also cause a HAZ and,
similarly to welding procedures, those processes that operate at
higher temperatures and slow speeds tend to create a larger
HAZ, while lower temperature or higher speed cutting processes
tend to reduce the HAZ size.
92. 93
Heat Affected Zone
10. Different cutting processes have differing effects on the HAZ,
regardless of the material being cut.
11. For example, shearing and water jet cutting do not create a HAZ,
as they do not heat the material, while laser cutting creates a
small HAZ due to the heat only being applied to a small area.
12. Meanwhile, plasma cutting leads to an intermediate HAZ, with
the higher currents allowing for an increased cutting speed and
thereby a narrower HAZ, while oxyacetylene cutting creates the
widest HAZ due to the high heat, slow speed and flame width.
13. Arc welding falls between the two extremes, with individual
processes varying in heat input.
93. 94
Defects are common in any type of manufacturing, welding
including. In the process, there can be deviations in the
shape and size of the metal structure. It can be caused by the
use of the incorrect welding process or wrong welding
technique.
Welding Defects, Causes and Remedies

Welding Defects, Causes and Remedies
Slag Inclusion
Slag inclusion is one of the welding defects that are usually easily
visible in the weld. Slag is a vitreous material that occurs as a
byproduct of stick welding, flux-cored arc welding and submerged
arc welding. It can occur when the flux, which is the solid shielding
material used when welding, melts in the weld or on the surface of
the weld zone.

Porosity
Porosity occurs as a result of weld metal contamination. The
trapped gases create a bubble-filled weld that becomes weak and
can with time collapse.
102. 103
Welding Defects, Causes and Remedies
Causes of porosity:
1. Inadequate electrode deoxidant.
2. Using a longer arc.
3. The presence of moisture.
4. Improper gas shield.
5. Incorrect surface treatment.
6. Use of too high gas flow.
7. Contaminated surface.

6. Use the right electrodes.
7. Use a proper weld technique
104. 105
Welding Defects, Causes and Remedies
Incomplete Fusion
This type of welding defect occurs when there’s a lack of proper
fusion between the base metal and the weld metal. It can also
appear between adjoining weld beads. This creates a gap in the
joint that is not filled with molten metal.
105. 106
Welding Defects, Causes and Remedies
Causes:
1. Low heat input.
2. Surface contamination.
3. Electrode angle is incorrect.
4. The electrode diameter is incorrect for the material thickness
welding.
5. Travel speed is too fast.
6. The weld pool is too large and it runs ahead of the arc.
106. 107
Welding Defects, Causes and Remedies
Remedies:
1. Use a sufficiently high welding current with the appropriate arc
voltage.
2. Before begin welding, clean the metal.
3. Avoid molten pool from flooding the arc.
4. Use correct electrode diameter and angle.
5. Reduce deposition rate.
107. 108
Welding Defects, Causes and Remedies
Spatter
Spatter occurs when small particles from the weld attach
themselves to the surrounding surface. It’s an especially common
occurrence in gas metal arc welding. No matter how hard you try,
it can’t be completely eliminated. However, there are a few ways
you can keep it to a minimum.
108. 109
Welding Defects, Causes and Remedies
Causes:
1. The running amperage is too high.
2. Voltage setting is too low.
3. The work angle of the electrode is too steep.
4. The surface is contaminated.
5. The arc is too long.
6. Incorrect polarity.
7. Erratic wire feeding.
109. 110
Welding Defects, Causes and Remedies
Remedies:
1. Clean surfaces prior to welding.
2. Reduce the arc length.
3. Adjust the weld current.
4. Increase the electrode angle.
5. Use proper polarity.
6. Make sure you don’t have any feeding issues.
110. 111
Welding Defects, Causes and Remedies
Incomplete Penetration
Incomplete penetration occurs when the groove of the metal is
not filled completely, meaning the weld metal doesn’t fully extend
through the joint thickness.
111. 112
Welding Defects, Causes and Remedies
Causes:
1. There was too much space between the metal welding
together.
2. Moving the bead too quickly, which doesn’t allow enough
metal to be deposited in the joint.
3. Using a too low amperage setting, which results in the current
not being strong enough to properly melt the metal.
4. Large electrode diameter.
5. Misalignment.
6. Improper joint.
112. 113
Welding Defects, Causes and Remedies
Remedies:
1. Use proper joint geometry.
2. Use a properly sized electrode.
3. Reduce arc travel speed.
4. Choose proper welding current.
5. Check for proper alignment.
113. 114
Welding Defects, Causes and Remedies
1. Hot cracks: These can occur during the welding process or
during the crystallization process of the weld joint.
2. Cold cracks: These cracks appear after the weld has been
completed and the temperature of the metal has gone down.
They can form hours or even days after welding. It mostly
happens when welding steel. The cause of this defect is usually
deformities in the structure of steel.
3. Crater cracks: These occur at the end of the welding process
before the operator finishes a pass on the weld joint. They
usually form near the end of the weld. When the weld pool
cools and solidifies, it needs to have enough volume to
overcome shrinkage of the weld metal. Otherwise, it will form
a crater crack.
114. 115
Welding Defects, Causes and Remedies
Causes of cracks:
1. Use of hydrogen when welding ferrous metals.
2. Residual stress caused by the solidification shrinkage.
3. Base metal contamination.
4. High welding speed but low current.
5. No preheat before starting welding.
6. Poor joint design.
7. A high content of sulfur and carbon in the metal.
115. 116
Welding Defects, Causes and Remedies
Remedies:
1. Preheat the metal as required.
2. Provide proper cooling of the weld area.
3. Use proper joint design.
4. Remove impurities.
5. Use appropriate metal.
6. Make sure to weld a sufficient sectional area.
7. Use proper welding speed and amperage current.
8. To prevent crater cracks make sure that the crater is properly
filled.
117. Arc welding process that
produces coalescence of
metals by heating them
with a constricted arc
between an electrode and
the work piece
Plasma: A gaseous mixture
of positive ions, electrons
and neutral gas molecules.
Plasma ARC Welding
118.
119. How Plasma Welding Works
Plasma
• Gas which is heated to an extremely high temperature and ionized so that it
becomes electrically conductive
• PAW process uses this plasma to transfer an electric arc to the work piece
• The metal to be welded is melted by the intense heat of the arc and fuses
together
Objective of PAW
• To increase the energy level of the arc plasma in a controlled manner
• This is achieved by providing a gas nozzle around a tungsten electrode
operating on direct current electrode negativity
120. Equipment
Power Supply
• A DC power source (generator or rectifier) having drooping characteristics
and open circuit voltage of 70 volts or above is suitable for PAW
• Rectifiers are generally preferred over DC generators
• High frequency generator and current limiting resistors used for arc ignition
121. Shielding gases
• Shields the molten weld from the atmosphere.
• Two inert gases or gas mixtures are employed.
• Argon(commonly used), Helium, Argon+Hydrogen and Argon+Helium, as inert
gases or gas mixtures.
• Helium is preferred where a broad heat input pattern and flatter cover pass is
desired.
• A mixture of argon and hydrogen supplies heat energy higher than when only
argon is used and thus permits higher arc alloys and stainless steels.
• Hydrogen, because of its dissociation into atomic form and thereafter
recombination generates temperatures above those attained by using argon or
helium alone.
