M.G.G. Jithendra Prasad , Shameem Syed
Swine flu which comes under the category of influenza is caused by N1H1 virus. This Disease in 2009 was termed as pandemic by WHO (World Health Organisation). It was fast spreading almost all over the world then. It is same as normal Flu and can be prevented by flu shots/vaccines. The real importance of the disease is because , it may cause serious health conditions like Pneumonia, Respiratory asthma, bronchitis different types of mucus line cancers ,unlike normal flu. Sometimes human life can be endangered by post effects of Swine flu. According to a study Infant mortality is because due to lack of detection of diseases. Thus Detection of Swine flu virus, which is cause for infant mortality is important. This can be done using the most trusted form by using MEMS. In this paper the Micro-Cantilever is used as the sensing unit. Using COMSOL 4.3b, we designed rectangular cantilever and also a rectangle with a hole punched forming SCR (Stress Concentration Region) concept, analysed and optimized.

10.11591/ijece.v6i3.pp1363-1370
Ali I. El Gayar , Zulkurnain Abdul-Malek
The purpose of this research is to investigate the severity of voltages induced on gas pipeline installed in parallel to a 115 kV overhead transmission line. The overhead transmission line (OHTL) is configured as a single-circuit. One of the phases exposed to single phase to ground fault. Transmission of high voltage along the same right of way (ROW) with metallic conductor may possibly introduce interference on metallic conductors such as gas pipeline (GPL) due to power frequency voltage as well as due to phase faults and switching phenomena. Two main approaches were used to compute the induced voltages, namely the method of moment (MOM), which is based on electromagnetic field theory, and circuit based method. The simulation considers the length of OHTL and GPL are 30 km and 10km respectively. The pipeline buried at 1 m underground in homogenous earth structure with various soil resistivites ranged from 10 to 1000 Ω-m. The transmission line consists of 150 towers and 200 m span length. The separation distance between the GPL and OHTL is varied from 5 to 100 m. The phase to ground fault current changed from 0.5 to 10 kA. Several observation points are made throughout the corridor, to examinant the induced voltages at different locations. The result show that, the soil resistivity, separation distance, and fault current had significant effect on pipeline induced voltage. In case of the observation points lying on the soil or on the outer surface of the pipeline coating, the induced voltage increased, when the soil resistivity increase, as expected. In case of the observation points placed inside the pipeline metal, and the pipeline is well coated, the induced voltage will decreased, when the soil resistivity increase.

10.12928/telkomnika.v14i2.3096
Seng; Universitas Multimedia Nusantara Hansun , Subanar; Universitas Gadjah Mada Subanar
A popular smoothing technique commonly used in time series analysis is double exponential smoothing. Basically, it’s an improvement of simple exponential smoothing which does the exponential filter process twice. Many researchers had developed the technique, hence Brown’s double exponential smoothing and Holt’s double exponential smoothing. Here, we introduce a new approach of double exponential smoothing, called H-WEMA, which combines the calculation of weighting factor in weighted moving average with Holt’s double exponential smoothing method. The proposed method will then be tested on Jakarta Stock Exchange (JKSE) composite index data. The accuracy and robustness level of the proposed method will then be examined by using mean square error and mean absolute percentage error criteria, and be compared to other conventional methods.

Tuna and mackerel are important fish in Indonesia that have great demand in the community and contain good nutrients for health. Many of the processed products have been faked including processed fish, by replacing the content of products that have high sales value to other lower price one. For ensuring food safety, fraudulent should be prevented by identifying the content of refined product. In this research, we implemented support vector machine (SVM), one of the popular methods in machine learning, to yield a model for identifying the content of refined product based on DNA barcode sequences. The feature extraction of DNA barcode Sequences was conducted by calculating k-mers frequency of each sequences. In this study, we used trinucleotide (3-mers) and tetranucleotide (4-mers). These features were inputted to SVM to classify and identify whether the DNA barcode sequences belong to the class of tuna, mackerel, or other fish. The evaluation results showed model SVM was able to perform identification with the accuracy 88%.

Electrical capacitance volume tomography (ECVT) system uses six switches in one channel with configuration resembling “T” letter, so it is called “T-switch”. The working scheme of the switch can be explained in four different modes of operation, i.e. excitation mode, detection mode, ground mode, and floating mode. This research describes the effect of switch configuration to stray capacitance in ECVT hardware. Stray capacitance introduces parasitic signal from other sources; one of them is signal from another electrode at floating mode when the signal is still flowing to detection circuit. One channel, two channels, three channels, so on until thirty-two channels are connected to single detection circuit sequentially to investigate the effect of stray capacitance. Both simulation and experiment show the stray capacitance increases along with addition of channel corresponds to 0.046pF for each channel.

A reliable electrical energy supply is a prerequisite for improving the standard economic and quality of life levels in a country. As is the case in many countries, Iraq is home to a collection of remote villages. Since it is uneconomical to connect these villages to the existing grid, the installation of stand-alone electrical power generators has become common practice. As a result, diesel stand-alone power generators see widespread use in these remote locales, which, whilst fit for their intended purpose, unfortunately suffer from several drawbacks, including instability in regards to everyday oil prices and a number of environmental issues. The implementation of a PV/FC hybrid power system could be one potential alternative to help solve these problems. Therefore, this paper will present PV/FC system control strategies alongside information relating to the performance of such system components, based on a case study that was conducted in Al-Gowair, Iraq. This study is especially important in terms of envisioning the future energy supply needs of Iraq. The HOMER simulation results showed that by using the proposed control strategies and suggested components of a PV/FC system, it was able to produce a satisfactory outcome.

In this algorithm, the tuning particle population is divided into three subgroups firstly, and through introducing the swarm-aggregation degree factor and the evolution speed factor of particle, dynamically adjusting the inertia weight and size of subgroups respectively, setting to find optimal objective according to the time-domain performance index of the system, and then the controller parameter tuning is realized by iterative calculation. Finally, adaptive particle swarm optimization method of fractional order PID controller is applied to integer order and fractional order of the controlled system for performance simulation in time domain analysis.

Solar energy is compared to be the best potential source of renewable energy in Pacific region. For this reason a photovoltaic cell is needed to harvest this kind of energy, gathering the most of it and the PV having a good efficiency.  The maximum efficiency is achieved when the PV works at its Maximum Power Point which entirely depends on the irradiation and temperature. This paper proposes a new design of hybrid Maximum Power Point Tracking and a comparative study is made with various existing MPPT techniques which include Perturb and Observe method, Incremental Conductance and Fuzzy Logic. From the comprehensive comparison study between existing MPPT technique and the proposed MPPT technique/theory, a hardware setup was demonstrated to verify the proposed design by charge controller in photovoltaic systems to which maximize the output power under various lighting conditions. The design is based on the computed results using the buck-boost DC-DC conveter. From the simulation, the proposed method tends to show better performance with almost no oscillations around the MPP.

In wireless communication, channel estimation is a key technology to receive signal precisely. Recently, a new method named compressed sensing (CS) has been proposed to estimate sparse channel, which improves spectrum efficiency greatly. However, it is difficult to realize it due to its high computational complexity. Although the proposed Orthogonal Matching Pursuit (OMP) can reduce the complexity of CS, the efficiency of OMP is still low because only one index is identified per iteration. Therefore, to solve this problem, more efficient schemes are proposed. At first, we apply Generalized Orthogonal Matching Pursuit (GOMP) to channel estimation, which lower computational complexity by selecting multiple indices in each iteration. Then a more effective scheme that selects indices by least squares (LS) method is proposed to significantly reduce the computational complexity, which is a modified method of GOMP. Simulation results and theoretical analysis show the effectivity of the proposed algorithms.

This paper presents a multiple objects recognition method using speeded-up robust features (SURF) and scale invariant feature transform (SIFT) algorithm. Both algorithms are used for finding features by detecting keypoints and extracting descriptors on every object. The randomized KD-Tree algorithm is then used for matching those descriptors. The proposed method is deletion of certain features after an object has been registered and repetition of successful recognition. The method is expected to recognize all of the registered objects which are shown in an image. A series of tests is done in order to understand the characteristic of the recognizable object and the method capability to do the recognition. The test results show the accuracy of the proposed method is 97% using SURF and 88.7% using SIFT.
