For photovoltaic (PV) systems to be as effective and dependable as they possibly can be, it is vital to make an accurate prediction of the amount of power that will be generated by the sun. Using machine learning, it is now much simpler to forecast the amount of solar energy that will be generated. These approaches are more accurate and are able to adapt to the ever changing conditions of the nature of the environment. We take a look at the most recent machine learning algorithms for predicting solar energy and examine their methodology, as well as their strengths and drawbacks, in this paper. Using performance metrics like root mean squared error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), and mean squared error (MSE) makes it possible to evaluate important algorithms like support vector machines, decision trees, and linear regression. The results show that machine learning could help make predictions more accurate, lower the amount of uncertainty in operations, and help people make decisions in real time for PV systems. The study also points out important areas where research is lacking and suggests ways to move forward with the use of machine learning in systems that produce renewable energy.

One of the main engineering challenges has been to design an economical soil retaining structure with high seismic resistance. From this perspective, reinforced soil walls have been developed with a focus on flexibility, in order to efficiently resist the effects of similar historical events in the event of a significant earthquake. The overall objective of this study was to compare the structural behavior of a geogrid-reinforced soil wall (Terramesh® system) under static and pseudo-static loads, and in a seismic environment simulated using the finite element method, in a shopping center in Trujillo, Peru. A case study was conducted using a mixed methodology, both applied and analytical-comparative in scope. Furthermore, the finite element methodology, material constitutive modeling, and dynamic time-history analysis of modal structures were chosen. It was determined that seismic loading can produce a 53.33% increase in deformations compared to the static state; Likewise, the overall safety factor under dynamic conditions tends to decrease by 27.85% compared to the static case. This study demonstrated the scope of geogrid reinforcement (Terramesh® system) through a practical case of a reinforced soil wall, using Plaxis 2D software to compare, estimate, and compare structural behavior in static, dynamic, and simulated environments.

Fairouz Sherali , Falah Sarhan
Cloud computing provides on-demand access to computing resources, such as storage and processing power. This technology allows businesses to scale efficiently while reducing infrastructure costs. However, protecting the security and privacy of data has grown to be a top priority. This is where enhancing cloud security with searchable encryption (SE) is crucial. SE effectively secures users’ sensitive data while preserving searchability on the cloud server side. It enables the cloud server to search via encrypted data without disclosing information in plaintext data. SE uses different encryption methods to encrypt data before uploading it to servers. The advanced encryption standard (AES) is a common algorithm for encrypting this data. In this paper, a novel SE method has been presented. The technique exploits the properties of the chaotic map to generate an AES key, which makes the AES algorithm more secure for encrypting the searchable index and uploaded files. We implement and test our method with real data from files. The experimental results show that the proposed method can significantly satisfy a higher level of security as compared to other schemes.

Despite the growing demand for renewable energy, the utilization of tidal energy remains underdeveloped due to efficiency limitations in turbine design. Addressing this gap, this study investigates the performance of horizontal-axis tidal turbines (HATT) by comparing two foil designs, National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) 2415 and OptA, to optimize energy extraction efficiency. The research employs computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations using OpenFOAM to evaluate the effects of foil modifications and non-linear twist distributions on turbine performance across varying tip speed ratios (TSR). The results indicate that the OptA foil significantly improves turbine performance, achieving a 41.4% increase in torque and a 40.2% increase in power coefficient (CP) at TSR 5, which was identified as the optimal operating condition. The OptA foil enhances velocity distribution, reduces flow separation, and improves vortex behavior, leading to greater efficiency and stability. These findings confirm that foil selection and blade design modifications play a critical role in HATT optimization.

The growing demand for enhanced power quality and reliable transmission has driven advancements in power flow control technologies. The distributed power flow controller (DPFC) represents an advancement over the unified power flow controller (UPFC). In contrast to the UPFC, the DPFC removes the DC link connecting the shunt and series converters, and redistributes the series converters along the transmission line as single-phase static series compensators. This modification enhances grid performance while maintaining full power flow control capabilities. The DPFC offers several advantages over the UPFC, including higher reliability, improved controllability, and greater cost-effectiveness. The system comprises a shunt converter in conjunction with multiple series converters, each with its own control circuit, all managed by a central control unit. This article presents the implementation of a DPFC model in MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation outcomes indicate that the DPFC significantly contributes to improved voltage stability and enhanced power transfer capability, thereby reinforcing system performance and reliability.

The company has a problem of ineffectiveness in the layout of the raw material warehouse due to the use of storage methods that ignore factors such as the type, dimensions, and condition of the goods. This reduces the optimal function of the warehouse and increases the time to retrieve goods. This research aims to redesign the suitable and practical layout of the raw material warehouse by considering its form and function, as well as filling methodological gaps from previous research. The method used is class-based storage. Based on ABC analysis, the category with the highest value is class C goods, with 73 units. Meanwhile, from the fast, slow, non-moving (FSN) analysis, class F (fast-moving) goods have the highest frequency of movement, with a movement percentage of 63% for 10 units of goods. The warehouse slotting analysis shows an increase in the number of shelves from nine to 15 shelves with five different shelf models and layout changes in raw material warehouses 1 and 2. The class-based storage method results in a more organized layout, efficient movement of goods, and faster picking time to optimize warehouse functions.

This study describes and illustrates how sensorless location estimation is achieved through the application of artificial neural network (ANN) control. Control stepper motor torque directly. Using stepper motors directly leads to a lot of problems; therefore, automated control systems are now commonly preferred. Stepper motors have several drawbacks when used directly, including the potential for steps to occasionally be missing while the motors are running. When physical sensors are not available, the proposed method estimates rotor position and speed using electrical signals and ANN algorithms. Simulation and experiment results demonstrate accurate position estimation (±1.5°) and efficient torque control. The sensorless direct torque control (DTC)-ANN approach increases the performance, reliability, and cost of stepper motors in robotics, computer numerical control (CNC) machines, and 3D printing.
