The Internet of Things (IoT) also has a huge impact on dramatically lowering healthcare expenses and increasing treatment outcomes. The only ways that patients could communicate with doctors before the Internet of Things were in person, over the phone, or via text. There was no feasible way for healthcare providers to assess patients’ health and offer advice continuously. IoT-enabled technological equipment has made remote monitoring possible in the healthcare industry, opening opportunities to keep patients safe and healthy and empowering medical professionals to provide the best treatment possible. This review provides a comprehensive study of the literature on IoT’s impact (negative or positive) on healthcare delivery and why it is difficult to implement despite its enormous benefits. Search engines (journal publishing databases) like Google Scholar, PubMed, and ScienceDirect were used to find studies on the impact of IoT-based healthcare delivery. Data were extracted from papers found, and the quality of studies that qualified for inclusion and exclusion was assessed and reported. It includes the proposed technologies’ validation as well as their clinical effectiveness. The review found that the lack of government commitment to financing IoT projects is a challenge to its implementation in healthcare delivery since it involves huge capital at the beginning and its maintenance. In addition, some medical professionals are still acquainted with the old-fashioned (manual) ways of delivering their services, hence avoiding the technological approach. Despite the challenges, one noted the positive effect of IoT in healthcare delivery is that doctor-patient interactions have gotten simpler and more effective; it has also raised patient participation and satisfaction. Furthermore, remote patient monitoring shortens hospital stays and avoids readmissions by monitoring patients’ health.

By combining the functions of many FACTS (flexible alternative current transmission systems) devices into a single unit, the UPFC (unified power flow controller) is the most efficient FACTS device available. Two voltage converters work together to form the Unified Power Flow Controller, a flexible tool for enhancing voltage regulation, power flow management, and power system stability. Both converters rely heavily on their control methods. This article discusses the power flow mechanism in a transmission line, which is necessary for understanding the functioning of UPFC in a transmission line and using a standard PI controller with voltage references in the control circuit of both converters. This study aims to enhance the power system's dependability and stability by developing a smart support-based UPFC device. Fuzzy logic is a useful tool for controlling UPFC equipment in a variety of failure scenarios. The fuzzy logic controller contrasts power grid characteristics such as a rotor speed deviation to a reference value to create operational pulses for the voltage source converter in the UPFC system. The suggested model will be tested using MATLAB simulation. The success of the proposed model is shown by thoroughly comparing simulation results to those of previously established models. This research paper's original contribution is the creation of a smart support-based UPFC device with fuzzy logic control. By comparing power system parameters such as rotor speed deviation to a reference value and generating operational pulses for the voltage source converter in the UPFC system, this technique increases the electricity grid's dependability and stability. The effectiveness of the suggested model is proved by a comparison of simulation results obtained in a MATLAB environment with those obtained from previously developed models.

Due to the high uncertainty of renewable energy sources, and the diversity of energy sources and storage systems, it is mandatory to seek a controller that manages all these renewable energy sources and this hybrid energy storage. This paper proposed a renewable energy management system using flatness control and PID and PSO technologies that track the maximum power point from the PV array and manages the energy storage elements. Two energy storage are adopted: battery storage and hydrogen tank. The proposed (Nero-fuzzy) controller also works to fill the hydrogen storage tank wisely and safely by controlling the alkaline electrolyzer and the tank's pressure. The main aim of this combined system is to attain power stability. Since the PV is the primary production source, a PSO MPPT is a proposed system for optimum power delivered by the PV under different radiation and temperature conditions. The fuel cell has been used to compensate for the energy lost when there is a lack of control due to weather conditions or high-power demand by the DC load. A battery was coupled to the DC bus to respond quickly to the power requirement. When the radiation intensity is 1000 W/m2, the PV will generate enough 18 kW to supply the load, run the electrolyzer 7 kW, and charge the batteries. While in the radiation change, when it is 240 W/m2, the solar panels produce (4.3 kW) and the load (4.7 kW). The battery works first because of its quick response, and then the fuel cell works to generate instead of it, which is sufficient to operate the load only. The results show a stable and fast response grid under different weather conditions and load scenarios.

As the global population and economy grow rapidly, the demand for accessible freshwater sources also increases to meet the rising consumption. However, this has resulted in several challenges, such as the global water crisis, drought, and scarcity of freshwater resources. To address this issue, many farmers worldwide rely on traditional irrigation systems despite their high water consumption. Therefore, there is a need to improve water usage efficacy in irrigated farming. This can be achieved by leveraging the Internet of Things (IoT) and advanced control technologies for better monitoring and managing irrigated farming. This article presents the findings of a comprehensive literature review on irrigation monitoring and sophisticated control systems, focusing on recent studies published within the last four years. The latest research on precision irrigation monitoring and cutting-edge control methods is highlighted. This study aims to serve as a valuable resource for those interested in understanding monitoring and advanced control prospects in the context of irrigated agriculture, as well as for academics seeking to stay up-to-date on the latest developments and identify research gaps that need to be addressed.

Sloshing refers to a certain kind of fluid movement that changes as it progresses. It possesses properties that are both nonlinear and exceedingly unpredictable, and these properties affect the tank wall. This effect may lead to structural wear, which in turn can cause the tank to fail. Benzene and gasoil liquids are used to test the effect of sloshing liquid and accompanying pressure on the wall tank caused by the baffles in partially full fluid tanks. To attain this, modeling of the interaction between fluid and structure is justified using the finite element analysis while the ANSYS Fluent is used to do the simulation. Specifically, the analysis enables us to anticipate the pressure that is being exerted on the shield, the influence of sloshing on the grounding point forces, and the size of the sloshing waves. The pressure distribution over time indicates a reduction of pressure on the tank wall as a result of utilising a vertical baffle if compared to the case of a tank wall without a baffle. The usage of vertical shields allows for around 20% of the greatest contact energy to be deflected, which is attributed to the potential of generating turbulence and vortices by the baffle.

The construction industry is considered a high-risk business. Risk management is one of the most influential methods used in construction project management to increase the chances of delivering the project successfully, Risk Assessment (RA) is necessary to help organizations identify and mitigate risks; therefore, this paper suggests a framework for developing an intelligent RA. There are many Risk Factors (RF) that affect construction projects, and they vary from one country to another. In this paper, a questionnaire of forty-one questions about RF was performed; its evaluation criteria are risk probability and its impact on cost, time, and quality, this questionnaire relied on several experts’ opinions to identify the most common RF affecting Iraqi construction projects. The collected linguistic data were converted into a triangular fuzzy number. Qualitative Risk Analysis was performed to assess the priority of the identified risks; while the Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) was proposed as the intelligent model. The training outcome produced three Fuzzy Inference Systems (FISs) models evaluated using the fuzzy designer application and tested using the fuzzy designer app and MATLAB Simulink to evaluate their accuracy and reliability. Finally, a set of corrective actions were suggested to facilitate the task for users.
