Photovoltaic system performance highly depends on environmental conditions. Hence system requirements to optimize energy yield are unique, and in most cases no relevant data are available to make implementation decisions. This is why monitoring of such systems is very essential for initial system evaluation, and continuous output optimization. This paper is the result of a thorough literature survey about existing performance monitoring system for photovoltaic panels, aiming to propose a system tailored for photovoltaic panels under the very particular environmental conditions experienced in the GCC region, as these countries are in an area with tremendous potential for development of solar energy projects. A wireless sensor network based monitoring system is proposed, that measures data relevant for desert climate like dust, temperature and humidity. A small-scale prototype is described, along with initial experimental results.

Bearingless ac homopolar machines combine magnetic bearing and motor/generator functionality into a single electric machine which features variable excitation, high power density at high rotational speed, a simple and robust rotor structure, and magnet-less excitation. These features make the bearingless ac homopolar machine a promising machine for highspeed flywheel energy storage systems (FESS). The variable excitation of the bearingless ac homopolar machine has the potential to increase the FESS's efficiency by allowing for low excitation during periods of free-wheeling and high-speed operation. However, the magnetic suspension's position stiffness and current stiffness depend upon the excitation level. This dependency must be taken into account in the suspension controller or the magnetic suspension may become unstable at certain excitation levels. A technique for modeling this dependence is presented in this paper and explored through 3D finite element simulation. A prototype design is analyzed for two rotor structures: one with a square airgap length profile and one with an inverted sinusoidal airgap length profile.

The biggest drawback in modelling the reliability of high voltage circuit breakers is the lack of access to data on failures in service, due to the very long lifetime of circuit breakers. This paper presents the application of reliability calculation based on Bayesian statistics to a 245 kV SF6 circuit breaker and its operating mechanism. By using the Bayesian theorem, the prior probability density function of failures in circuit breaker components, which is calculated based on data on the circuit breaker and the operating mechanism failures in service, is combined with data on the failures registered during an extensive mechanical development tests. During the tests more than 32000 "CO" (close-open) operations were performed. Based on the posterior probability density function, the reliability of circuit breaker components and the overall reliability of the breaker is estimated. The paper also presents some analysis of the impact of circuit breaker maintenance on its reliability.

Previous work on rhythm in speech signal has attempted to quantify rhythm metrics and classify languages accordingly into different rhythm classes. These attempts have met with more or less success; new studies conducted on some varieties and regional dialects provide results that are not consistent with their corresponding rhythm class languages. In this work, we try to explain previous results by investigating to what extent rhythm metrics are conditioned by social factors such as differences in age, gender, region, and education level. Experiments conducted on two sentences of the TIMIT database spoken by 630 speakers show that rhythm metrics are highly sensitive to the first three above-mentioned factors.

Assembly lines are sequential manufacturing processes, consisting of various stages at which parts are added to the product in a planned manner in order to create the finished product much faster than by handcrafting methods, and embodies the principle of the division of labor. At a multinational company in Dubai, an assembly line for pressure transmitters has been recently set up. This manufacturing line is stochastic and dynamic in nature due to a mixed automated and manual line. The operator takes less time for a manual stage with increasing learning. The line is a multi-product line with a line configuration that is neither U-line nor parallel lines. The product line follows more of a Workcenter model where the stations form a network of queues. The number of products completed at the end of the day is to be maximized while minimizing the queue waiting time at the stations where the bottlenecks occur. The bottlenecks occur, not due to large processing or cycle time of the station but rather due to the station being fed by batch processing stations. With this complex set up, the algorithm proposed is simulation based.

This paper presents an immune-inspired approach for detecting and isolating faults in a wind turbine system. A negative selection algorithm (NSA) is proposed which is derived from a mechanism in vertebrate immune systems known as negative selection. The proposed strategy is used to perform Fault Detection and Isolation (FDI) on a wind turbine system. The results show that the proposed technique is quite promising for fault detection and isolation in wind turbines.

With the recent rapid development in the field of multispectral face imaging, the use of image fusion has emerged as a new and important research area. Many studies have attempted to improve the performance of face recognition by fusing the infrared (IR) and visible face images, yet few comparison studies have been conducted to examine which fusion method is preferable over another. In this paper, we provide an overview of the most widely used pixel level fusion algorithms, and establish a comparison to evaluate each fusion method Our experiments were validated by comparing cumulative match characteristics (CMC) of multispectral image fusion by weighted sum, principal component analysis, empirical mode decomposition, and wavelet transform.

Numerical analysis using both Finite Element and Rigorous Coupled Wave Methods are used to examine the impact of salient parameters on the absorption and enhanced field distribution in a thin film solar cell with metallic nano-strip structures. The absorption enhancement in these structures is due to light coupling into both plasmonic and guided wave modes. It is shown that the combination of these modes could overcome the drawbacks of angle, wavelength and polarization selectivity. The simulation results show also that the metallic strips are much more efficient when on the bottom rather than on the top of the active layer (Si), that the thickness of an the optimum passivation SiO2 layer thickness varies with the wavelength of the incident light, suggesting that a SiO2 layer with non-uniform thickness might be better for optimum overall absorption and efficiency. From the calculated field distribution as a function of both the strips depth and width, it appears that the field strength in the active layer is much more affected by the changes in the width rather than in the depth.

Multicast communication in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET) has been used for group communication-based applications such as battlefield, rescue-field and emergency operation. Multicasting consumes less bandwidth even though it has large participants in its communication. Security issues become more severe due to its high scalability and routing complexity. In this paper, we analyze the vulnerabilities of PUMA (Protocol for Unified Multicasting through Announcements) and MAODV (Multicast Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector routing) against various possibilities of internal attacks. We also identify MA (Multicast Announcement) packet fabrication type of internal attacks in PUMA. It is very difficult to detect this attack efficiently when it changes its behaviors arbitrarily. We propose multicast activity-based overhearing technique to identify this attacker node in the multicast group. NS-2 simulation results show the attacker impacts on the performance metrics such as Packet Delivery Ration (PDR) and delay of PUMA and MAODV multicast routing protocols. Also simulation results supports that our technique is well-efficient to detect attacker with respect to less control overhead and false negative alarm rate.
移动自组织网络(MANET)中的组播通信已广泛应用于战场、救援场和应急行动等基于群通信的应用。尽管多播在其通信中有大量参与者,但它消耗的带宽较少。由于其高可扩展性和路由复杂性,安全问题变得更加严重。在本文中,我们分析了PUMA (Unified Multicast Protocol for Multicasting through announcement)和MAODV (Multicast Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector routing)针对各种可能的内部攻击的漏洞。本文还分析了PUMA内部攻击的组播公告(Multicast Announcement, MA)报文伪造类型。当这种攻击任意改变其行为时,很难有效地检测到它。我们提出了基于组播活动的监听技术来识别组播组中的攻击节点。NS-2仿真结果表明,攻击者会对PUMA和MAODV组播路由协议的PDR (Packet Delivery ratio)和时延等性能指标产生影响。仿真结果表明,该方法具有较低的控制开销和误报率,能够较好地检测出攻击者。
