this paper presents kinematic and dynamic models of non-holonomic differential-drive mobile robot (Kobuki) and validates the trajectory tracking controller results using Gazebo simulator with respect to real-time tests on Kobuki robot. The Results show the difference between the Gazebo simulated odometry and Kobuki robot real-time control test odometry. It is shown that the Gazebo simulator is efficient enough to depend-on in the absence of the hardware setup for faster development and for abroad works in research. These results are important for ROS and Gazebo users.

Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) has become one of the potential candidate for the upcoming 5G wireless networks due to low latency, higher spectral efficiency, system throughput, and massive connectivity. The uplink NOMA can employ Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) modulation for the construction of its basic primary signal waveform. The major weakness of uplink NOMA employing OFDM modulation is high Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR), which makes this scheme inefficient. Therefore, in this paper the Discrete-Sine Transform (DST) matrix precoding based uplink NOMA scheme has been proposed to reduce the higher PAPR. Computer simulations indicate that the DST matrix precoding based uplink NOMA scheme has lower PAPR as compared to the Walsh-Hadamard Transform (WHT) matrix precoding based uplink NOMA scheme and non-precoded uplink NOMA scheme available in the literature.

In this study, we construct quantum error correcting codes over Eisenstein-Jacobi integers by using the CSS code construction. Since there is an isomorphism between Eisenstein- Jacobi integers and finite fields, direct constructions of quantum codes over Eisenstein-Jacobi integers can be obtained. Therefore, we define error bases, error matrices and a new distance with giving illustrative examples. Also, we prove the commutative property of error operators with respect to this new distance. Obtaining these codes can lead an answer for the existence question for some new parameters.

A penta-band frequency bowtie antenna design is presented to operate at five different frequencies: 5 (WLAN), 5.7 (WLAN), 6.8, 8.65 and 11 GHz for mobile and wireless communications. The additional frequencies resulted from adding 3 metallic strips of different sizes to both sides of the aperture bowtie antenna. Two pairs of strips have the same dimensions while the other two strips are unequal and vary vertically. The simulation of the design was performed using HFSS software to obtain the reflection coefficients, radiation patterns, impedances and surface current distributions.

We present a deterministic mathematical model that describes the transmission dynamics of intramammary infections (IMI) caused by Corynebacterium spp. (Corynebacterium species) in lactating dairy herds. Longitudinal, quantitative, dynamic models are likely to be valuable for predicting infections outbreak risk, quantify the effectiveness of response tactics and performing response planning. Previous investigations on IMI have considered the transmission of several bacterial pathogens, but not Corynebacterium spp., in modelling investigations. We have established a new Corynebacterium spp. SnISw compartmental model subject on appropriate unknown parameters that we estimated by using a deterministic approach, based on real data fitting procedure. The real data, from which the parameters of the model are estimated, were obtained in a field trial conducted in a New York dairy herd (US).

Electrical load forecasting is essential in the field of power systems to enhance the operation and economical utilization In this paper, a combined approaches of artificial neural networks (ANN) with particle-swarm-optimization (PSO) and genetic algorithm optimization (GA) for short and mid-term load forecasting is developed. The model identifies the relationship among load, temperature and humidity using a case study of Sharjah City in United Arab Emirates. The ANN model trains the hourly peak load data for a set of days and then forecasts the load for next day. Actual data obtained from Sharjah Electricity and Water Authority (SEWA) is used to validate the results.

In software engineering, project scheduling is an essential factor that determines success of projects. Success is influenced by various project scheduling estimates, such as accurate estimates of project's duration and budget. These estimates highly depend on uncertainties related to commonly occurring unpredictable events during a project's duration. Furthermore, budget and duration estimates depend on the available teams and their performance levels with respect to tasks and circumstances. This paper proposes a data-driven Discrete-Event Simulation (DES) approach to provide decision support to project managers in project scheduling. Moreover, we introduce a tool that we developed for this purpose, which features various visualizations of results and helps project managers compare different strategies and parameters.

The algorithm of multiple-unit target acquisition against the background of structurally similar disturbance and the method of algorithm analysis have been proposed. The proposed algorithm allows increasing of the signal detection accuracy within close sources of disturbances even in cases when disturbances are not set according to the angular coordinates.

Green supplier selection and order allocation problem involves multi-criteria decisions. In this paper, the available suppliers are ranked based on selected green criteria by decision makers in the purchasing department using analytic hierarchy process (AHP). Then, genetic algorithm (GA), that uses real-coded representation chromosomes, is used to find the optimal solution for the multi-objective integer linear programming model. The model deals with three conflicting objectives which are: total purchasing cost (TCP), total green value of purchasing (TGVP) and total rejected item due to quality (TR). The model is illustrated by a numerical example.

This paper presents a real case analysis of a single machine subsystem of a cable plant using reliability modelling. Real maintenance data of a cable plant are collected for this purpose. Three types of maintenance are noted for the subsystem: repair, preventive maintenance random (PMR) and preventive maintenance scheduled (PMS). The subsystem is repaired upon failure, while preventive maintenance (PM) is carried out at random and scheduled basis. Optimum reliability indices such as mean time to subsystem failure (MTSF), availability of the subsystem, expected busy period of the repairman and expected number of subsystem repairs are obtained. Analysis is done using semi Markov processes and regenerative point techniques.
