This work proposes a unique method for controlling the universal active power filter integrated with PV array system (UAPF-PV) using a proportional resonant controller and a second order sequence filter. The active component of the distorted load current is estimated using a second order sequence filter, and this value is then used to generate a reference signal for a shunt active filter at the instant of zero crossing of the load voltage. With fewer mathematical calculations, the suggested method extracts the essential active component of distorted and unbalanced load currents with good accuracy............

Electrical power providers in Nigeria make use of an electricity billing meter installed at pole or consumer resident to bill customers. However, there are situations where a compound might have multiple house-holds and will therefore be made to split the bill amongst themselves manually. This becomes a problem when any of the house-hold refuse to pay his own share of the bill. This research work aims at solving this problem by designing and implementing a multi-facility (five facilities) power meter with Bluetooth control. The method employed was designing an embedded system that is carefully programmed to read each house-hold's consumption and splits their bills using simple mathematics programmed into the system. At the end of this research work the designed system was able to split the electricity bill for a compound with five house-hold.

An islanding event is a more serious concern for electrical utilities, which occurs when the utility is separated from the rest of the distributed system, mainly in the presence of renewable sources, and is integrated with an electrical system. In this study, we propose a new islanding detection technique based on a deep learning model using a convolutional neural network (CNN). The proposed method is based on time frequency wavelet analysis, which is used to represent the scalogram image (RGB image) obtained from the time series data at the point of common coupling in the proposed system. The time-series data were converted to scalograms, and the CNN was designed to detect islanding and non-islanding events........

Finding factor(s) capable of capturing better stock return is popular research issue where how factors can be used together is also an important issue. Other than multi-variable regression, methods of other kinds also exist in literatures claiming reasonable results. In this study, we use two factors as example (called two-factored stock strategies in this study), and select four different methods (from literatures) for selecting stocks based on two factors combined. We proposed a systematic approach to first validate whether the target two-factored stock selection methods are better than single-factored method. Then the same procedure is used to find the better performing one among the four compared two-factored stock selection methods..........

Factor analysis selects stocks by studying which factors will affect stock returns. However, the amount of stocks to be purchased based on the selected factors is usually important but not well-considered in factor analysis. Quantile regression can be used to evaluate the performance of factors at different return quantiles, further improving the accuracy and robustness of stock selection, especially on how much percentasge of stocks of highest (or lowest) factor values to invest.......

For a good design framework and performance evaluation of MIMO wireless channel models, it is imperative to have accurate and realistic channel models. Furthermore, this arduous task is achieved using MIMO channel simulators. Thus, the MIMO simulator reproduces the statistical properties of the non-realizable reference model with sufficient accuracy while keeping complexity very low. However, designing accurate and efficient deterministic MIMO channel simulators is often challenging. In this paper, the theoretical performance of the MIMO channel simulator is studied under an isotropic environment with existing and newly modified parameterisation methods. The existing methods are the Extended Method of Exact Doppler Spread (EMEDS) and the Modified Method of Equal Area (MMEA). The Modified Extended Method of Exact Doppler Spread (MEMEDS) and New Modified Method of Equal Area (NMMEA) are the new improved parameterization methods. Theoretical performance evaluation of the existing conventional parameterisation methods with the newly enhanced methods is investigated.

Measuring foot-shoe pressure is necessary for various medical diagnoses, including gait. Unusual pressure can be a sign of a number of health problems, including unstable walking, postural abnormalities, the possibility of calluses or ulcers, especially in diabetic feet, and many more biological analytical uses. Anomaly pressure may also be utilized for further diagnostic purposes.Foot pressure can only be distributed evenly with the proper orthotics [1].Neuropathy accounts for about 60% of diabetic foot ulcers. Therefore, early diagnosis of foot ulcers might be beneficial in lowering the risk of amputation, especially for those with diabetes. The strain gauge sensor with the NI data collecting interface is used in this study to create a plantar pressure sensor system that collects measurement data [2].Data is displayed and normalized using Labview.......

Traditional pavements using bituminous mixes perform well only when provided with drainage infrastructure, especially in heavy rainfall regions. Providing similar surfaces for low volume rural roads is often done without providing drains, considering space constraints. This impacts draining of rainwater, causing flash floods. Low Impact Development (LID) techniques, like use of interlock cement paver blocks, have proven to be a viable and effective alternative by reducing stormwater runoff and ensuring ease of construction and maintenance. Several case studies have focused on residential roads, parking lots, and other low volume roads as potential areas for the provision of permeable pavements. This paper aims to assess the yearly trend in increased use of this construction in the current road scenario in Kerala.

The unforeseeable effect of project changes can lead to a cumulative impact, which in turn can result in a loss of productivity (LOP). The cumulative impact of changes refers to the synergistic effect of changes not adequately captured in change orders, which are often forward priced. Though a certain correlation between project productivity and the combined volume of changes was observed in published statistical studies, it was also observed that a portion of the productivity impact was not driven by the volume of changes. This paper offers a discussion on this issue.

In recent times, the frequency of industrial accidents involving explosions has increased globally. Additionally, there has been a rise in terrorist activities utilizing explosive devices. To enhance the safety of buildings and structures, it is imperative to improve their resistance to explosive forces and to accurately predict the potential damage caused by explosions of varying intensities. A key objective in designing explosion-resistant structures is to determine the dynamic response of these structures to blast wave impacts. This requires assessing the transient pressure loads on the walls of civil engineering structures. Simulating explosions is a complex process, as it involves the propagation of shock waves through the air and their subsequent interaction with a structure.........

An islanding event, which occurs when a utility is integrated with an electrical system and is cut off from the rest of the distributed system, is a more serious concern for electrical utilities. This is especially true when renewable energy sources are present. In this work, we provide a unique approach to islanding detection, based on a deep learning model of a convolutional neural network (CNN) improved using the RMSProp (Root Mean Square Propagation) algorithm to reduce the loss function of the model. The recommended technique is based on time frequency wavelet analysis to generate the dataset for the model, the scalogram image (RGB picture) that is collected from the time series data of voltage signal at the point of common coupling in the proposed system. Finally based on the data and model will predict the islanding and non-islanding event.

Athletic mental energy is a newly emerging research topic in sport science. However, whether it can predict objective performance in competition remains unexplored. Thus, the purpose of this study was to examine the predictability of mental energy on volleyball competition performance. We recruited 81 male volleyball players (Mage D 21.11 years _ SD D 1.81) who participated in the last 16 remaining teams in a college volleyball tournament. We assessed participants' mental energy the night before the competition and collected their competition performance over the next 3 days. We used six indices of the Volleyball Information System (VIS) developed by the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB) to examine its associations with mental energy.........

This study investigates the landcover and land use changes in Onitsha and its environs between 2000 and 2020 using object-based analysis and multi-scale image fusion. The analysis reveals significant transformations driven by rapid urbanization. The built-up area expanded dramatically from 39.64% in 2000 to 62.54% in 2020, highlighting the city's growth as a commercial and residential hub. Concurrently, vegetation cover decreased from 38.86% to 25.06%, and open spaces declined from 14.23% to 5.74%, indicating substantial environmental impacts including increased temperatures, reduced air quality, and biodiversity loss. Water bodies also saw a slight reduction, emphasizing the need for sustainable water resource management.........
