Title : Corrosive and aggressive phenomena associated to wastewater sanitation Authors :
Abstract : The origin of corrosive and aggressive phenomena acting in wastewaters are electrochemical actions, chemical processes and microbial sources usually preceded by the two first ones. The biofilms (composed by microorganisms and inorganic compounds) developed in the collectors and other elements of sanitation has also an important contribution. The combination of all these dynamics provokes premature degradation of all the materials in the entire sewer system. The starting agents of above situations are located in either wastewater, in solids contained by this one and in the atmosphere in contact with wastewater, solids and materials of the system infrastructures. Negative action of corrosive and aggressive phenomena with respect to networks and support systems as well as their own sewage treatment plants, causes annual losses of more than 30,000 million euro/year in Spain, as well as non-economic costs social, health and environmental. The mechanisms to minimize the negative impacts of corrosion and aggression in sanitation systems and urban wastewater treatment undergo several complementary ways: efficient implementation of control industrial discharges adapt them to the provisions of the normative about the item; election of the most suitable materials for each facility prioritizing not only the economic aspect; use of paints and coatings materials that are appropriate to each particular material depending on the practical use of it; implementation of cathode protection systems; finally, establishment in each case of contrasted and effective routine of maintenance of sanitation equipment and facilities.

Title : A Ground Fault Location Method Using High-Frequency Transient voltages on Transmission System Authors : Mr. Murli, Mr. Deepak Salian, Mr. Naveen B M, Mr. Ganesh Shetty
Abstract : Electric power systems have grown rapidly over the past fifty years. This has resulted in a large increase of the number of lines in operation and their total length. These lines experiences faults which are caused by storms, lightning, snow, freezing rain, insulation breakdown and, short circuits caused by birds and other external objects. In most cases, electrical faults manifest in mechanical damage, which must be repaired before returning the line to service. The restoration can be expedited if the location of the fault is either known or can be estimated with reasonable accuracy. As to overcome these problems this paper presents a new fault location method using high-frequency transient voltages generated by ground faults on transmission system. The method is based on the measurement from one end of the transmission line. The fault location is determined solely from the arrival time of initial waves of modal voltages at the measuring bus. The method does not need to exploit the reflected waves. The method is tested quantitatively using the Matlab 7.5 / Simulink, M-scripting for typical ground faults on a model of transmission line. The statistical results are given to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method.

Title : Modern Solar Tracking system with additional production of energy using Thermo electric generator Authors : Anitha.R, Sathish Kumar.P, Komalachitra.S
Abstract : This project deals with a LDR based solar panel tracking system with thermo electric generator. Solar tracking enables more energy to be generated because the solar panel is always able to maintain a perpendicular profile to the sun�s rays. Thermoelectric generators are devices which convert heat (temperature differences) directly into electrical energy, using a phenomenon called the"thermoelectric effect". This will tend to maximize the amount of power absorbed by PV systems. It has been estimated that the use of a tracking system, over a fixed system, can increase the power output by 50% - 60%.
The collected power will be converted to be suitable for the load attached to it. The information will be displayed through LCD monitor.

Title : Profitability of supplying wood chips dried at small or medium scale heating plants Authors : Jyrki Raitila, Veli-Pekka Heiskanen
Abstract : Moisture is the most important quality factor of fuel wood. It affects both the profitability of supplying wood chips and the economy of running a heating plant. Most fuel wood is seasoned outdoors, so drying depends on the weather and the desired moisture level of wood cannot always be reached. To avoid weather dependency, wood chips can easily be dried in driers connected to a heating plant. Most of the year small-and medium-sized heating plants have significant excess heating capacity that could be used to dry fuel wood. The investment and running costs of a dryer determine how feasible such a drying method is as part of the wood fuel supply chain. The profitability of drying increases considerably if the heating enterprise can increase its sales because of a higher boiler output. Thus, warm air drying of fuel wood can quite easily be made profitable if there is a potential to enlarge the heat clientele.

Title : FUZZY BASED SENSORLESS DIRECT SPEED CONTROL FOR BLDC MOTOR DRIVES Authors : SAJLA REHMAN
Abstract : This project presents the groundwork for a novel concept of sensor less direct speed control in BLDC motor drives. Unlike the conventional senseless speed controls consider the motor back emf and motor current. Thus feedback mechanism is minimized. Speed regulation is achieved by controlling rotational speed of stator flux linkage. The fuzzy logic control strategy has been implemented for the inverter control. This entire control concept has been implemented using SIMULINK model. The proposed control scheme will effectively reduces the torque ripple in a brushless dc motor and provides better control over the motor performance. The PI regulator is replaced with a simple comparator. The brushless dc motor is excited based on the inverter feedback. This proposal is applicable to both two-phase and three-phase conduction modes of the a brushless dc motor. In this project, principles of the proposed sensorless strategy and speed ripple calculation are described in details. The validity of this claim is verified through the simulation results.

Title : Toyota Production System in a batch type production plant as a Pilot study Authors : G.J.Naveen, Ramesh.S.Rao, R.Rengarajan, Paniraj Shanbhog
Abstract : Today’s challenge for business operations and management lies in providing customers with products of excellent quality cost and delivery (QCD) performance in the pursuit of customer satisfaction (CS) and staying ahead of competitors through market creation activities. Manufacturing companies; in particular, are required to grasp customer needs and provide products responsibly to the market through global production without falling behind their competitors. Therefore, new strategic management technologies that drive a company to lead the competition have become increasingly essential on a global scale. Major manufacturing companies are facing the strong need to innovate their businesses for global production. Depending on the situation in each country; including product specifications, production volume and market conditions, manufacturing may be fully automated or require manual labor. If so, the success of global production is highly dependent upon the quality of workers; indicating the necessity of work innovations. In case of automobile parts manufacturing, safety is considered specifically important. Taking shortcuts, doing shoddy work or in the extreme case, putting a faulty product on a vehicle in the market amounts for an adverse effect, and can have devastating consequences for a company; in the long run. Many people assume that Japanese management practices; the Toyota Production System, have been whole-heartedly implemented by American automakers for more than two decades [1]. However, the recent financial and operational crisis faced by American automakers indicate that a performance gap still exists between their production processes and those used by their Japanese counterparts. Considering many such issues a prime motto was to study and try to enhance the existing scenario by continuous improvement.

Title : Comparative Analysis of Feature Selection Algorithms for Medical Diagnosis Authors : N.S.Nithya, Dr.K.Duraiswamy
Abstract : Health care data contain large volume of valuable information for diagnosing diseases. The major challenge of the health care system is to extract useful patterns from these mass medical diagnosis data. In data mining technique, the feature selection method is used to extract relevant features in the original data set which contains noisy and irrelevant data. During the selection process, a decision criterion is used to remove irrelevant or redundant features. Elimination of irrelevant feature increases the prediction accuracy of classifying medical data and also decreases the computational time. To increase the performance and improve the design of classification algorithms, analyze the strength and weakness of the feature selection approaches are very essential. In this paper, the performance of the three filter based feature selection methods information gain, gain ratio and correlation have been analyzed. The selective feature selection methods are compared based on the classification accuracy for a given data set.

Title : A Proposed method of Edge Detection from Impressions of footwear found in crime scenes Authors : Prof. Samir Kumar Bandyopadhyay, Ms. Nabanita Basu
Abstract : It is time consuming for analyzing wide variety of footwear impression because of different types of footwear outsole designs. The forensic footwear experts faced two types of problems -(1) to determine the source of an impression given a known set of outsole prints where there are no known prints to match, and (2) to determine whether a particular impression evidence is from a known suspects shoe with similarity and uncertainty. This paper proposed the work for edge analysis of impression from footwear. Successful, high quality crime scene investigation is a simple, methodical process. It is not rigid; it follows a set of principles and procedures that are reasonable and ensure that all physical evidence is discovered and investigated with the result that justice is served. The basic crime scene procedures are physical evidence recognition, documentation, proper collection, packaging, preservation, and, finally, scene reconstruction. Every crime scene is unique and, with experience, a crime scene investigator will be able to use this logical and systematic approach to investigate even the most challenging crime scenes to a successful conclusion.

Title : Two Line Resolution of apodised optical system with circular apertures in the presence of Primary Spherical aberration, Defocusing and Coma Authors : T.Kiran Kumar, A.Narsaih, D. Karuna Sagar
Abstract : Several attempts have been made to obtain the homo-centricity in the direction of minimizing the aberrations by assigning different values to the constructional parameters of the lens systems, resulting in the design of several refined optical systems. Even though a great deal of success was obtained in two line resolution of optical system, in certain regions the simple geometrical treatment of the aperture found to be inadequate. So applying the primary spherical aberration, coma and defocus aberration to the optical system In particular, it was observed that deviations from this treatment must be expected in the immediate neighborhood of the boundaries i.e., shading of the apertures in the regions where a large number of rays meet

Title : Crystallization study of iron nanoparticles using molecular dynamics simulation Authors : Pham Huu Kien, Nguyen Thi Thu Ha
Abstract : The growth and nucleation of iron nanoparticles in amorphous solid have been investigated by molecular dynamics method. It was found that when the sample is heated at 921 K and relaxed over long time, the sample is crystallized into bcc crystal structure. The first nuclei formed most frequently in the area nearby to the surface of the nanoparticle. Then the crystal cluster grows in the direction to the center of nanoparticle. The final crystallized sample has two parts: the core with bcc crystal structure and surface with amorphous structure. When the sample was relaxed at 310 or 550 K we observe a small cluster with size less than 50 atoms. However, this cluster does not grow to larger size. The observed crystallization agrees with the classical theory of nucleation.

Title : Modeling of Critical Stand-still Time of Poured Mould in Vertically Parted Automatic Flaskless Green Sand Casting Process Authors : Raghwendra Banchhor, S.K.Ganguly
Abstract : In the automatic flaskless green sand casting process the critical stand-still time of poured mould is important parameter for better transportability of poured over conveyors. Critical stand-still time of the mould string is the maximum time that the poured string of moulds can be left on the automatic mould conveyor without causing transport troubles.
In present work an attempt has been made to predict critical stand-still time using multiple linear regression analysis. The parameter sand metal ratio, pattern plate utilization factor, margins of casting cavity from the edges of the mould and pouring temperature of metal are taken as input and critical stand-still time of poured mould as output. The proposed model can be employed to generate a database of minimum gaps for various combinations of part geometry, pattern plate layout and metal to predict the critical stand-still time.

Title : Intelligent Traffic Controller for Network Authors : Ayyappan.B, Umadevi.D, Tamizharasi.P
Abstract : In recent years the purpose of using internet increases enormously most specifically for communication field. Due to usage of internet increase traffic also increase. If the traffic increases the respond from the server gets delay. For this many algorithm has been implemented to reduce the traffic although these algorithm has their own shortcomings. This paper proposes to use fuzzy logic to reduce the traffic in the router. This logic calculates only the queue size of the router unlike other algorithm which calculates network parameter. The calculated queue size is used to calculate the allowed sending rate. Using this technology we reduce the memory used for calculating network parameter in other methods, due to less of memory used for calculating sending rate, the router becomes more efficient. This logic provides better performance thus it assures the Quality of Service. We can measure the efficiency of this proposed model using fuzzy logic controller.

Title : The impact of the financial integration on the economic growth: the case of the GCC countries (1981-2011) Authors : SENOUCI Bereksi Imane, BOURI Sarah, Mohamed BENBOUZIANE
Abstract : Studies about the relationship between financial integration and economic growth have shown underwhelming results. In one hand, some of the studies have indicated that the liberalisation of the capital account have been positive for the economical growth; and in the other hand, other studies results were not conclusive. The main objective of this work is to examine, theoretically and empirically, the character of the link between financial integration and economic growth by using panel data from 1981-2011 periods. In the following studies, we will primairely focus on gulf countries (Bahrein, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Saudi Arabia and united arab emirates) which followed the economical liberalisation and financial integration. The results of the assessments show a positive and significant link between the financial integration and the economic growth in these countries under some financial, macroeconomic and institutional conditions.

Abstract : The 21st century business environment in Zimbabwe presents enormous management challenges to all manner of businesses. High unemployment rates leading to dwindling disposable income at family levels as well as increased options on how to spend the little extra means museums face the full wrath of the challenges. Whilst its focus is on education and enjoyment surrounding material culture, and are non-profit oriented, Zimbabwean museums find themselves, competing for clients with other recreational facilities. This paper explores the uniqueness of the Zimbabwe Military Museum and examines the possibilities of market positioning as a viable strategy of reversing low visitorship and visibility challenges it faces. Instead of applying a ‘one-size fits all approach’, this museum needs to appeal to the right audience with the right product. Working around the premise that all museums collect, store, document, present and research upon unique material collections in the name of educating and entertaining its clientele, is it irrefutable that museums of the 21st century need to encompass a vision, mission, business leadership and visitor service. These are some of the hallmark characteristics associated with successful profit-oriented organizations. After all, the fate of museums is intertwined together with their visibility, social relevancy and viability.

Title : Association Rule Generation in Data Streams Using Apriori Algorithms Authors : S.Vijayarani , R.Prasannalakshmi
Abstract : Data mining technology is employed for locating useful and unknown knowledge from the massive databases. Normally, data mining techniques are applied to static databases for knowledge extraction whereas the current data mining techniques are not suitable and it also has some limitations for handling dynamic databases. A data stream handles dynamic data sets and it has become one of the important research domains in data mining. The basic definition of data stream is arrival of continuous, ordered and large quantity of data. In order to perform data analysis, finding the relationships between the data and extracting knowledge from the data stream is very difficult because the existing data mining techniques are not adequate. Hence, this situation has raised concerns about the development of new algorithms and techniques for handling data streams. Important data mining tasks performed in data streams are clustering, classification, generation of association rules and frequent item mining. Association rule mining is one of the popular research problems in data stream which helps to find out interesting relations between the data items in the transactional databases. This research work mainly focused on how the traditional algorithms are used for generating association rules in data streams. The algorithms used in this work are APRIORI, APRIORI PT and APRIORI MR. The performance measures used for finding the best algorithm is execution time and number of rules generated. From the experimental results it is observed that APRIORI MR algorithm’s efficiency is better than APRIORI and APRIORI PT Algorithms. This work is implemented in Tanagra data mining tool.

Title : Medical Emergency Response in Islamic Community Collaboration with Network of Mosque leveraging the whole concept of Government and Quadruple Helix Model in Malaysia Authors : Muhamad Hairulnizam Hasan, Gul Muhammad, Abdul Rahman Ahmad Dahlan
Abstract : A medical emergency is a situation where injury or illness that will discriminate grows an instant risk to a persons long-term health or even life. Eliminating the medical emergency has become the more critical issue in developed countries especially in rural areas and urban areas. The issues that are normally raised within the matter are on the reachability to the incident and also the time taken to respond to the incident. In this paper we discussed how the Islamic Community with the help of the Whole of government concept (WoG) and Quadraple Helix Model (QHM) together with the concept of Network of Mosque (NoM) will help the congested area where ambulance or medical assistance hard to reach in case of accident, or health Emergency. The Authors intended a consolidative and cooperative mechanism of Mosque and Knowledge Management (KM) as to facilitate the emergency response to the victim. By leveraging the above concepts Writes empathize that the Medical Emergency can be further effaced in rural areas in Malaysia.

Title : Disordered continuum percolation in YBCO/CuO composites Authors : D R Mishra
Abstract : High Tc superconducting systems namely BSCCO and YBCO were studied for the modes of percolation process. The study was carried out on a series of specimens of bulk polycrystalline superconducting-insulating composites prepared in CuO matrix. The specimens of BSCCO and YBCO system were prepared as Bi1.6Pb0.4Sr2Ca2Cu3O + x% CuO (namely BPSCCO+CuO) series and Y1Ba2Cu3O7- + y% CuO (namely YBCO+CuO) series respectively, with x and y values in the range of 0-100% (by weight). The lattice percolation model and the continuum model fit to the observed data. It was observed that BSCCO and YBCO system comply to the lattice percolation model and the continuum model respectively. It is because the conduction in BSCCO system takes place through a well-defined Cu-O lattice and the added CuO grows in continuation to this already existing lattice. On the other hand, the addition of matrix in YBCO system creates a continuous conduction medium very different from the spread lattice conduction sites. The conduction in this system needs Cu-O chains, which do not develop with the added Cu-O matrix.

Title : STUDY OF MAGNETO RHEOLOGICAL GRIPPER IN BORE-WELL RESCUE OPERATION Authors : D.LAVANYA, K.SARAN, S.VIGNESH, D.RAMESH
Abstract : This paper deals with the optimization of bore-well rescue operation by introducing MRFT (Magneto-Rheological Fluid Technology) in already designed bore-well rescue robot. The proposal is given such that the already existing mechanical gripper was replaced with magneto rheological gripper. Main objective of this paper is to avoid major injury and to assure the safety of trapped baby while rescuing the baby in bore-well with the help of MRF. Magneto rheological fluid (MRF) is a smart fluid whose properties can be controlled with the help of metal particles and magnetic field. These fluids have the ability to transmit force in a controlled manner with the help of magnetic field, thus improving their performance especially in areas where controlled fluid motion is required. Some applications of magneto rheological fluid technology are in dampers, brakes, journal bearings, pneumatic artificial muscles, optics finishing, fluid clutches, aerospace etc. where we give electrical inputs and get the mechanical output comparatively faster and in a controlled manner. Thus the paper explains the basic nature of magneto rheological fluid and its application in our proposed bore-well rescue robot gripper.

Title : Effects of Econometric Softwares on US Stock Market Authors : Yuxiang Zhang, Liuling Li
Abstract : In this paper, the impacts of econometric software on stock market are studied. A new model is used, which is based on the EGARCH-type volatility in Nelson (1991), the non-Normal error of SSAEPD in Zhu and Zinde-Walsh(2009) and the 3-factor model of Fama and French (1993). Data of Fama-French 25 portfolios are used. Following Ooms and Doornik(2006), we select 1965, 1970 and 1985 as the break points and divide data into 6 sub-samples. MLE and LR is used to estimate this model and test parameter restrictions, respectively. The residuals are checked by KS test.
Empirical results show the Market factor, the Size factor and the Book-to-market factor are alive among 1965, 1970 and 1985 wave of econometric software. And the estimated results of 1985 wave of econometric software are compared with those of 1965 and 1970 econometric software generations, which shows both the similarity and difference those events have on the stock market.

Title : English to Bangla Phrase�Based Machine Translation System with the Help of Rules Authors : A.O.M Asaduzzaman, Md. Nazrul Islam
Abstract : In this paper we present a machine a machine translation system to translate an English sentence into a Bangla sentence of equivalent meaning. We have considered the translation of simple, declarative English sentences to Bangla for Present, Past and Future tenses. To do this work we employed Rule-based decision making principle along with phrasal decomposition of the sentences. A bilingual dictionary has been developed to provide the morphological properties and contextual information of the English words with their corresponding Bangla meaning. The proposed MT system starts with parts of speech tagging of the English sentences. Then the system applies a phrasal decomposition method to obtain individual phrases out of the sentences. To make the translation process easier a preprocessing of the phrases before translation has also been considered.
