This paper presents in details comparative study between two most popular algorithms technique which is incremental conductance algorithm […]

Comparative Analysis of Vedic and Array Multiplier

ABSTRACT Most of the today’s real time signal processing algorithm include multiplication as its processing heart. It is most important arithmetic unit in Microprocessor & DSPs. The speed & power consumption & packaging of the processor is mainly determined by its multiplier. Two important parameters associated with multiplication performed in Processors applications are latency and […]

Design of Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Controller forFlow Systems

ABSTRACT This paper presents three methods for controlling the flow of liquids.  This is highly important in industrial applications such as boilers in nuclear power plants. The paper investigates the effectiveness of water flow rate using Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID), Fuzzy Logic (FL) and Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy (ANFS) controllers. These three controllers are implemented in MATLAB/SIMULINK to test […]

An Experimental Study on Effect of Particle Size and Angularity on Void Ratio of Granular Soils

ABSTRACT Maximum and minimum void ratios are two parameters that have effect on mechanical behavior of soil. There are different parameters that have effect on value of void ratio such as size, angularity, roundness and shape of particles. Particles size and roundness were studied at this work. Angular calcareous sand was selected and tested at […]

Planar UWB Antenna with Enriched Gain and Band-Notch Characteristics

ABSTRACT The design of a compact planar monopole antenna featuring ultra-wideband characteristics and simultaneous signal rejection in the 6.5-8.5 GHz band is presented here. Five different antenna configurations have been proposed with the same RF performance and radiation characteristics. Co-Planar Waveguide(CPW) is used to feed the radiating element. The presented results depict that the prototype […]

Hydromagnetic Nanofluid Flow over a Rotating Porous Disk with Prescribed Heat Flux

ABSTRACT Owing to the abundant applications of nanofluids, this study is mainly concerned with the steady, laminar, non-linear MHD flow of nanofluids over a rotating porous disk subjected to prescribed heat flux and suction. Two types of nanofluids such as copper – water nanofluid and silver – water nanofluid are considered. Governing equations are system […]
