Abstract

Development of optical character recognition (OCR) algorithm for printed and handwritten characters is a challenging area for research. Plentiful research on OCR techniques for scripts such as Roman, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese has already been carried out. OCR research activities related to Indian script is limited. Devanagari script is used by about 500 million people in India. Remarkable research has been done in the last few years for Devanagari script. In this paper, a survey of the various research efforts done by various groups of researchers for the development of printed as well as handwritten Devanagari character recognition system is presented. Comparison of various methods in terms of feature extraction techniques, classifiers, datasets, and accuracy values is also described.

Abstract

A conical tank shows non-linearity in its model due to its variation in area with respect to its height. As the level of fluid inside the conical tank varies, time constant and gain of the process will also vary. In this study investigations are performed to check the control performance of the non-linear process at different operating points.

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a serious metabolic disorder affecting global health and results in number of serious life-threat- ening complications leading to increased mortality rate. Complications can be prevented with early diagnosis and appro- priate care. International Diabetes Federation and World Health Organization suggested an urgent need of national level actions to prevent type 2 diabetes. The adverse effects of adherence to drugs as antidiabetic agents at later stages cannot be avoided. Hence, alternative therapies are constantly explored by the researchers to mitigate type 2 diabetes. Exercise has a significant impact on the improvement of type 2 diabetes. Metabolic adaptations are provoked by exercise in skeletal muscle cells. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an important molecule in managing these adaptations. In response to cel- lular energy demand, the activity of AMPK increases, which then triggers the glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) translocation through signaling pathways proposed in the present model. The quantification of exercise on insulin resistance reduction is not well established. The modeling of the effects of physical exercise on signaling pathways in the disease condition is still a challenging task. In silico studies are useful to investigate effect of exercise in diabetes. This research work presents a model to quantify the effect of exercise on the GLUT4 translocation. The result provides effect of exercise in the improvement of insulin resistance developed by type 2 diabetes. The study is useful for establishing invivo model correlating actual effect of exercise in diabetes management.

Model predictive control for an industrial coal pulveriser

Title of PaperModel predictive control for an industrial coal pulveriser

Published YearDecember 2020

Indexed INScopus

Abstract

The coal-pulveriser/coal mill is an important subsystem upstream of boilers in coal-based thermal power plants. The efficient boiler operations demand optimum combustion-air to coal-fuel ratio (AFR). In fact, a portion of (preheated) combustion air, called primary air, passes through the coal mill and carries pulverised coal to the boiler. The safe, efficient coal-mill operation is important and requires (1) safe temperature control of primary air-coal mixture inside/outlet of mill; (2) optimum primary air-to-fuel ratio (pAFR); (3) swift tracking of coal-flowrate setpoints to cater for variable power-load demands. In this paper, a multivariable Model Predictive Control (MPC) scheme is proposed for a specific industrial coal mill. Also, a simulation study is performed using a validated industrial coal-mill model, and the performance of the MPC scheme is compared with two other control schemes, industrial 2PI and prior published 3PI with selective control. The MPC outperforms the other two control schemes and provides better control performance, respects coal-mill operational constraints, and improves primary air-to-fuel ratio.

Abstract

Coal-based power generation continues to be the key player in power generation. However, the efficiency of a thermal plant lies in the range of 30- 40%, a sizably less value. Pulverisation of coal is an important but an energy intensive process. Efficient control of the pulveriser can improve the efficiency of the overall plant. This paper discusses various computational results and their analysis for the case study of a coal pulveriser carried out at a thermal power plant in Gujarat, India. It proposes a more accurate mathematical model for a pulveriser with a static classifier and a 3PI (Proportional Integral) with selective control for improved performance. The proposed model is validated with real plant data from the 150 MW ESSAR thermal power plant, Gujarat. It is observed that the proposed model captures the system dynamics more effectively than the models existing in the literature. A 3PI with selective control strategy is proposed where the primary air flow is selected from the mill differential pressure loop and air-fuel ratio loop depending on operating conditions. It is observed that the new model with proposed control has better load disturbance rejection properties and is found to be more robust to parametric variations compared with the control strategy employed in the industry, wherein the mill differential pressure is controlled manually.

Abstract

Signaling pathways play a pivotal role to maintain the homeostasis of the biological system, alterations in which, lead to the onset of severe diseases such as hypertension, diabetes and cancer. Dysregulation of the glucose metabolism causes malfunction of the insulin signaling pathways. Insufficient or no insulin production leads to type 1, while, insulin resistance leads to type 2 diabetes mellitus. Recent advances in the field of systems biology encourages use of control theoretic approach to investigate the interactions within the insulin signaling pathways. The present paper provides a detailed survey and critics on various control theoretical approaches like parameter optimization, sensitivity and robustness analysis adopted by system biologists.

Abstract

MultiInputs MultiOutput(MIMO)processes are very common in industrial environment. These loops comprise multiple measurement (sensor) and manipulating (control) signals.The quadruple tank systemis popular test bench setup to demonstrate various properties of MIMO process. Major challenge faced while designing a control system for MIMO processes is the interaction (or coupling) between inputs and outputs. In such cases conventional multi loop PID control works when the coupling is less or weak. When interactions increases then the conventional multi loop PID control fails. Hence, need arises to provide control solutions for highly coupled system and one of the most primitive approach is to implement decoupler control. Thus, attempt is made to understand and realize the problem for controlling a highly coupled process with help of quadruple tank system. Design of decoupler using LabVIEW and its validation are the prime work of the presented paper.

Abstract

Multi Input – Multi Output (MIMO) processes are very commonly found in many chemical unit processes. Control of such MIMO processes is always challenging due to coupling between inputs and outputs. Even after very significant efforts made by the research fraternity, control of coupled MIMO process is still an open research issue. Computerized and easy to use laboratory scale set up is very essential to investigate performance of different control algorithm on MIMO process. An attempt is made to develop low cost, configurable, computerized and smaller size multi input multi output coupled process control laboratory test setup. The proposed set up has capability to interface with user friendly LabVIEW platform. With the help of this interface the user can easily deployed any newly developed algorithm and verify on this laboratory scale test set up. The performance of the developed set up is checked with different controller tuning conditions as well with different coupling condition of MIMO process. The performance confirms the functionality of the developed set up.

Abstract

This paper presents some investigations and comparison of linear versus non-linear static motor-control maps for the speed control of a BLDC (Brush Less Direct Current) motors used in quad-copter UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles). The motor-control map considered here is the inverse of the static map relating motor-speed output to motor-voltage input for a typical out-runner type Brushless DC Motors (BLDCM). Traditionally, quad-copter BLDC motor speed control uses simple linear motor-control map defined by the motor-constant specification. However, practical BLDC motors show non-linear characteristic, particularly when operated across wide operating speed-range as is commonly required in quad-copter UAV flight operations. In this paper, our investigations to compare performance of linear versus non-linear motor-control maps are presented. The investigations cover simulation-based and experimental study of BLDC motor speed control systems for quad-copter vehicle available. First the non-linear map relating rotor RPM to motor voltage for quad-copter BLDC motor is obtained experimentally using an optical speed encoder. The performance of the linear versus non-linear motor-control-maps for the speed control is studied. The investigations also cover study of time-responses for various standard test input-signals e.g. step, ramp and pulse inputs, applied as the reference speed-commands. Also, simple 2- degree of freedom test-bed is developed in our laboratory to help test the open-loop and closed-loop experimental investigations. The non-linear motor-control map is found to perform better in BLDC motor speed tracking control performance and thereby helping achieve better quad-copter roll-angle attitude control

Abstract

Standard model for estimation of reference evapotranspiration rate (ET0) is the FAO-56 version of Penman–Monteith. It needs a wide range of atmospheric parameters like solar radiations, wind speed, air temperature, humidity, vapor pressure and soil heat flux. All these data may not be available at the majority of the locations. The estimation of evapotranspiration using the Hargreaves equation is a potential solution to this problem. It needs only temperature and radiation data to estimate ET0. But, simplification brings inaccuracy and need for regional calibration of the Hargreaves equation constants—CH and EH. Fuzzy logic based calibration of the constants CH and EH in the Hargreaves equation for diverse climate locations of India like—Bikaner, Calcutta, Kakinada, Coimbatore, Panjim-Goa, Kota, Deharadun, and Srinagar is performed and validated. Performance of modified Hargreaves equation (MHG) is compared with Hargreaves equation (HG) and FAO-56 version of Penman–Monteith (PM-56). MHG resulted in improvement by reducing the error in ET0 estimates. The root mean square error (RMSE) values reduce with the range 0.36–0.92 mm/day for MHG from 1.12 to 2.53 mm/day of HG. Location specific calibration improves the accuracy of the HG.

Abstract

Increased demand of farm products and depletion of natural resources compel the agriculture community to increase the use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in various farming processes. Agricultural Decision Support Systems (DSS) proved useful in this regard. The majority of available Agricultural DSSs are either crop or task specific. Less emphasis has been placed on the development of comprehensive DSS, which are non-specific regarding crops or farming processes. The crop or task specific DSSs are mainly developed with rule based or knowledge transfer based approaches. The DSSs based on these methodologies lack the ability for scaling up and generalization. The Knowledge engineering modeling approach is more suitable for the development of large and generalized DSS. Unfortunately the model based knowledge engineering approach is not much exploited for the development of Agricultural DSS. CommonKADS is one of the popular modeling frameworks used for the development of Knowledge Based System (KBS). The paper presents the organization, agent, task, communication, knowledge and design models based on the CommonKADS approach for the development of scalable Agricultural DSS. A specific web based DSS application is used for demonstrating the multi agent CommonKADS modeling approach. The system offers decision support for irrigation scheduling and weather based disease forecasting for the popular crops of India. The proposed framework along with the required expert knowledge, provides a platform on which the larger DSS can be built for any crop at a given location.

Abstract

A reference evapotranspiration rate (ET0) is vital information for irrigation scheduling as well as plant growth modeling. Estimation of evapotranspiration using environmental variables is a convenient approach compare to direct measurement. Several mathematical models have been proposed for the estimation of ET0. Among all these, the Hargreaves equation has received maximum attention of the agricultural fraternity as it needs minimum weather data. However, requirement of minimal weather data in the Hargreaves equation makes it a simple and pragmatic model for estimation of ET0. The minimalist approach makes the equation incapable to estimate ET0 accurately under extreme weather conditions. The calibration or adjustment of the Hargreaves equation parameter CH and EH for different climate conditions is well accepted approach to accomplish error free estimation from the equation. The establish calibration methods are empirical and time consuming. Further, the results obtained by these methods are valid only for the restricted area and season only. This paper presents Evapotranspiration CALibration TOOL (ECALTOOL), which is a fuzzy based universal computer program developed on the platform of NI LabVIEW to calibrate CH and EH. The key features of the tool are its ability to provide calibration of ET0 for 1100 locations of 190 countries, and its user friendliness. The performance of the tool is compared and validated against the benchmark Penman-Monteith equation as well as the experimentally calibrated values for various locations with diverse climate conditions. Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) is in the range of 0.4856 – 1.1562 and 1.21%– 2.06% respectively. The calibrated values of CH and EH are proved to be accurate in comparison with experimentally carried out calibration. The developed tool eliminates the need of location specific experimental calibration process for the Hargreaves equation.

Abstract

Accurate estimation of evapotranspiration (ETo) is a key factor in weather-based irrigation scheduling methods. To estimate ETo using the Hargreaves equation, just the data on the minimum and maximum temperature and solar radiation are required. However, this procedure cannot offer consistent accuracy for different climate conditions. To attain the accuracy, calibration of the equation constants (CH and EH) for different climate conditions have successfully been attempted by many researchers. Because these calibration procedures are lengthy and location-specific, there is a need of a generalized calibration method to make the Hargreaves equation more pertinent and effective. In this paper, fuzzy logic based calibration method for the Hargreaves equation is proposed and validated. The fuzzy inference system is developed to compute appropriate values of the constants CH and EH on the basis of past data on humidity and wind velocity of a selected location. The underlying relationship between weather conditions and the best values of the constants CH and EH are used to establish a fuzzy rule base. The performance of the method is checked at eight geographically different locations of India with diverse climate conditions. The Mean Absolute Error (MAE) in ETo values estimated by the calibrated modified Hargreaves equation and the Penman-Monteith (PM) equation is in the range of 0.3220–1.0325. It is far more lower than if the error is calculated using the original Hargreaves equation. It confirms the correctness of the calibration method for different climate conditions.

Abstract

Decision Support System (DSS) is computerized tool to provide decision for partially known system. DSS for agriculture system gains popularity in recent past. Irrigation scheduling is one of the important aspects for profitably and sustainability in agriculture system. One of the widely used irrigation scheduling approach is `Water Balance Approach' as it does not requires highly accurate and costly sensors for soil moisture, canopy temperature, and leaf thickness. However, implementation of this method involves extensive computation and accurate measurement of large numbers of variables. In agriculture system, it is seldom possible to get accurate measurement values of necessary variables. This paper proposes fuzzy logic based DSS framework for irrigation scheduling. It is proposed to use fuzzy rule base for soil characterization, calculation of evapotranspiration, and estimation of root zone. Use of fuzzy logic helps to reduce computation requirements as well as eliminates need of accurate measurement of parameters.

Abstract

Primary clarifier plays vital role in removal of pollutants present as total suspended solids (TSS) in wastewater. In this research work prediction of effluent TSS present in the sedimentation tank of clariflocculator is reported. The data of common effluent treatment plant (CETP), Ahmedabad, India has been used in the development of soft sensor. The mechanistic and fuzzy inference system (FIS) soft sensor models have been developed. The models predict the effluent total suspended solids (TSSe) of clariflocculator process based on the measurement of influent flow rate (Qf) and influent total suspended solids (TSSin). The root mean square error (RMSE) of mechanistic model and fuzzy inference system were 30 and 48 respectively for the data samples Qf ranging from 800 to 900 m3/h and TSSin from 300–600 mg/L. These ranges are typically observed throughout the year at CETP, Ahmedabad, India. The percentage mean accuracy for mechanistic model was 88 %. The difference between predicted and actual measured values of RMSE and percentage mean accuracy of mechanistic model is acceptable as system is highly sensitive. Mechanistic model gives information of total suspended solids present in retentate as well as TSS present at different height of the sedimentation tank in addition to TSS present in effluent.

Classical Proportional Integral Derivative(PID) controller remains the most popular approach for industrial process control. Poor tuning of PID controller can lead to mechanical wear associated with excessive control activity, poor control performance and even poor quality products. In this paper, we design procedure for the internal model control (IMC) approach for control plant.

Abstract

Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) is widely used in industries. Here cascaded PI method is used for controlling VFD, in which inner loop is current feedback and outer loop is speed feedback. When multiple sensors(speed, current) are there for measuring conditions in controlled process, a cascaded control scheme is used, and cascaded system also gives faster compensation when disturbance occurs. PI tuning for the first order system is easy as it depends only on time constant of system, and for second order system PI tuning is difficult as it depends on peak time, rise time, peak overshoot, settling time parameters of the system. The estimated PI will not give proper output so for better dynamic performance PI need to be tuned based on the whole mechanical system.

Abstract

A Cryogenic temperature control system based on temperature monitor having multiple channels has been used for recording and monitoring the various temperature in Cryogenic Heat exchanger which is further used for liquid helium test facility. The effectiveness of heat exchanger can be maintain by the temperature that will be measured at inlet and outlet of the prototype heat exchanger. The temperature range of the tested heat exchanger is 77 k to 300 k. This paper tells the crucial role of temperature in cryogenic system and describes the process. Various sensors has been placed in the system and different temperature readings has been taken in LabVIEW where it can be monitor and log the varying temperature value of a cryogenic heat exchanger with the help of data acquisition system (DAQ). Siemens PLC (Programmable logic control) S7 300 has been introduced for controlling the cryogenic heat exchanger process.

Abstract

A field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is an integrated circuit. It is known as System on programmable chip (SOPC) The FPGA configuration is generally specified using block diagramme representation and “VHDL”. Quartus-II can be interface with Nios-ii software tool. In that, “C-Programming” can be used for Modbus Communications, In Nios-II, with use of UART, CRC, function codes, timer and Frame receiving, timer application, data can be acquire from RS-232 Communications. Using “C-programming”, Data (i.e.-temperature, voltage, Current, Killowatt etc.) can be transferred to connected computer from modbus communication protocol. It suggests a potential solution for FPGA based Data Acquisition System. It proposes advanced method for data acquisition as part of good communication solution for different protocols.
