On Optimization of Manufacturing of a Sense-amplifier Based Flip-flopBRNSS Publication Hub
The paper describes an approach for increasing of density of field-effect heterotransistors in a sense-amplifier based flip-flop. To illustrate the approach, we consider manufacturing of an amplifier of power in a heterostructure with specific configuration. One shall dope some specific areas of the heterostructure by diffusion or ion implantation. After that, it should be done optimized annealing of radiation defects and/or dopant. We introduce an approach for decreasing of stress between layers of heterostructure. Furthermore, it has been considered an analytical approach for prognosis of heat and mass transport in heterostructures, which can be take into account mismatch-induced stress.
The response of a rectangular micro-plate to me-chanical shocks considering m...Kaveh Rashvand
In this presentation, the modified couple stress theory is used to investigate the effects of mechani-cal shocks due to package motions on the dynamic stability of a fully clamped rectangular micro-plate. Numerical results reveal that the intrinsic size dependence of materials on thick-ness affects the stability region, and the dynamic response of the micro-plate. The results ob-tained from the modified couple stress theory show that the classical theory overestimates the deflection of the micro-plate in smaller thicknesses, which may lead to early instability. In contrast, the results of the modified couple stress theory are similar to those of the classical elasticity theory in greater thicknesses. Therefore, the effect of intrinsic length-scale can be neglected in this case. In addition, studying a half-sine mechanical shock shows that changing the pulse duration can cause the dynamic shock response to become similar to the quasi-static one while changing the amplitude of the acceleration pulse can change the stable voltage values of the micro-plate. These parameters should be considered together with the pull-in voltage to prevent the failure of MEMS devices under mechanical shocks.

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.

Final project report on grocery store management system..pdfKamal Acharya
In today’s fast-changing business environment, it’s extremely important to be able to respond to client needs in the most effective and timely manner. If your customers wish to see your business online and have instant access to your products or services.
Online Grocery Store is an e-commerce website, which retails various grocery products. This project allows viewing various products available enables registered users to purchase desired products instantly using Paytm, UPI payment processor (Instant Pay) and also can place order by using Cash on Delivery (Pay Later) option. This project provides an easy access to Administrators and Managers to view orders placed using Pay Later and Instant Pay options.
In order to develop an e-commerce website, a number of Technologies must be studied and understood. These include multi-tiered architecture, server and client-side scripting techniques, implementation technologies, programming language (such as PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and MySQL relational databases. This is a project with the objective to develop a basic website where a consumer is provided with a shopping cart website and also to know about the technologies used to develop such a website.
This document will discuss each of the underlying technologies to create and implement an e- commerce website.

CW RADAR, FMCW RADAR, FMCW ALTIMETER, AND THEIR PARAMETERSveerababupersonal22
It consists of cw radar and fmcw radar ,range measurement,if amplifier and fmcw altimeterThe CW radar operates using continuous wave transmission, while the FMCW radar employs frequency-modulated continuous wave technology. Range measurement is a crucial aspect of radar systems, providing information about the distance to a target. The IF amplifier plays a key role in signal processing, amplifying intermediate frequency signals for further analysis. The FMCW altimeter utilizes frequency-modulated continuous wave technology to accurately measure altitude above a reference point.

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.
