 Abstract

The underwater vehicle is an autonomous system which is impelled by an electrical propulsion system. The purpose of the underwater vehicle is to acquire, attack and destroy the enemy targets such as ships and submarines. The underwater vehicle consists of various sub-systems such as homing control system(HC), motor and battery, inertial navigation system(INS), actuation system, instrumentation system. Most of the latest underwater systems are integrated on MIL-STD-1553B bus, and the message activity on this bus takes place in real-time environment. In several test setups (in military applications), a tremendous volume of data, in the form of messages, are passed among various independent sub-systems which includes telemetry, actuator and sensor information. The data portray the estimations of different system parameters, which are of extreme importance for fault identification and analysis. Amid simulation run, all the critical messages need to be captured, stored, displayed, monitored and recorded for analysis. The data is received and stored by instrumentation system which is an embedded system with constrained memory limit because of which it cannot record all the sub-system parameters for longer mission times. This paper underlines development and advancement of MIL-1553B bus monitoring system to monitor and capture the real-time data on the bus for post mission analysis during system integration checks of underwater vehicle using visual basic 6.0 based graphical user interface (GUI).

 Abstract

With the increment of purchasing capacity of vehicles by the individual, traffic is increasing day by day on the roads and on the intersections. It leads to inconvenience to people as well as the increment of pollution. Today, traditional system is not suitable to handle huge traffic. These systems were designed to handle regular pattern of traffic. But today traffic is fluctuating frequently that demands new computing power in the traffic management system. This paper presents the system which can handle the various sizes of vehicles on the road. This model first evaluates the concatenated vehicle size by considering all size vehicles. Calculated vehicle size is then fed into the fuzzy controller with the other input parameters, traffic flow, and traffic density to calculate cycle length. In this basically, three parameters are taken, named as Size of Vehicles, Traffic Density, and Traffic Flow. Fuzzy rules are built by considering the Size of Vehicles, Traffic Density and Traffic Flow, cycle length is calculated using various datasets. The cycle which is calculated using the model of this paper is then compared with the fixed time control cycle length.

Abstract: The present study was carried out to investigate the fermented feather meal (FFM) as a replacement of dietary fish meal protein in the diet for shark. FFM was produced by keratinase of S. acrimycini NGP 1, S. albogriseolus NGP 2 and S. variabilis NGP 3 which was isolated from the marine sediments of South Indian coastal region. The physical and biochemical characterization were carried out for the sacrificed large and small shark fish, which were fed with commercial fish meal (TRIO) and FFM for 30 days. The characterization studies such as weight, percentage of weight gain, length, daily weight gain, survival rate, protein efficiency ratio, protein and lipid content indicated that, feather meal fed fish were more effective than fish meal which was produced by keratinase of S. albogriseolus NGP 2 than others. But in length, large and small fish fed with feather meal were found in the range of 7.5 to 8.0 and 6.4 to 6.7 cm respectively which were not shown significant growth than fish meal fed large (8.3 cm) and small fish (6.7 cm). The present study revealed that the growth and health status of shark fed by FFM and commercially available fish meal. It is the basic, alternative and innovative research platform for commercially available fish feed.

Abstract: Nowadays, there is a vast and fast development in crypto currencies. Bitcoin is one of them which are most popular and known as first decentralized currency .The legal status of Bitcoin varies substantially from country to country and is still undefined or changing in many of them. This paper mainly covers working with Bitcoin in India. Bitcoin transactions are anonymous and most secure but on the other hand they fail to protect consumers because of lack of regulations. Also the use of crypto currencies is very less because of lack of its awareness and vendors. This paper also covers the legality and regulatory framework with respect to Bitcoins in India. As a virtual currency and peer-to-peer payment system, Bitcoin may signal future challenges to state oversight and financial powers.

 Abstract

This paper presents the analysis of cascaded H-bridge multilevel boost inverter without the use of inductors using MATLAB/Simulink. In present scenario power inverter system uses a dc-dc boost converter to boost the battery voltage for a conventional three phase inverter. The presence of bulky inductors in the boost circuit of inverters leads to low power density, and low efficiency. It also increases the overall system cost. The traditional cascaded H-bridge multilevel boost inverter that requires a separate power supply for each H-bridge is also a solution to the problem. However, it is highly infeasible to provide numerous power supplies. Hence the cascaded multilevel H-bridge boost inverter is the alternate solution to increase the power density & efficiency using a topology of a standard three-leg inverter and an H-bridge in series with each inverter, which uses a capacitor as DC power source & eliminate the bulky inductors. A Fundamental switching scheme for modulation control in order to produce a five-level phase voltage is used for analysis.

 Abstract

The ever-increasing demand of the multimedia technologies have marked the need of large datasets of the imaging data. Once there is the huge dataset available it becomes equally important to retrieve the images according to our requirement and convenience. The traditional methods of retrieving the images using metadata has been bottleneck in the retrieval process. Also it is difficult to assign keywords to the huge amount of imaging datasets and remember likewise. A system is thus proposed for the effective and efficient retrieval of the desired images from the large databases using the closest match approach. The user can provide the image as a query input image. Visual characteristic of the image like shape is studied properly for the further image description and indexing purposes. The query image block is compared to all the image blocks in the databases one by one. The images with certain similarity found are grouped together forming the clusters. Thus these clusters with some similar visual characteristics consists of the images that have the nearest distance with the input query image. The use of K-means clustering algorithm in many ways is efficient as the time elapsed by the system for indexing is reduced. The productivity of time as well as desired output results are obtained using K-means algorithm. .

A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a kind of autonomous network that involves of mobile nodes that can communicate with each other over wireless acquaintances. All mobile nodes that are the part of ad hoc network handovers arbitrarily and acts like a router along as host node. A wireless ad hoc network contains of number of "peer" mobile nodes that made up to communicating through each other deprived of help from a fixed infrastructure. The interconnections between mobile nodes are talented of moving on a continual and arbitrary basis. In Mobile Ad-Hoc network, routing protocol is the main significant for the basic functionality of network. Network performance not only depends upon type of protocol used in MANET but also number of nodes communicating in network. In this paper, we studied number of routing protocols used in MANETs, in this research exercise and I examine the overall perfor
