Power demand in any region is continuously increasing causing changes in system’s frequency and hence causes major problems in system stability. Interconnected power systems have great advantages to maintain the stability, insure continuity of supply and furthermore maintain the frequency to its nominal value. The control of the interconnected power systems is done by Automatic Generation Control (AGC), which is composed of two parts, Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) and Load Frequency Control (LFC). Whenever a disturbance occurs, LFC acts to restore the system into its steady state with zero error as well as desired transient response characteristics. This paper demonstrates the design and implementation of integral and fuzzy logic controller (FLC) for a two area power system taking the steady state error and percent overshoot as comparison parameters. For a step load perturbation, the FLC produced better transient characteristics for the frequency deviation. MATLAB/ SIMULINK software was used to carry out the implementation and obtain results.

Recent projections anticipate that the essential energy consumption will increase by 48% in 2040. This has prompted to a need to create proficient and sustainable techniques of storing energy. Solar thermal energy can be stored in the form of latent heat by utilizing appropriate phase change materials (PCMs), which offer high heat storage capacity. An experimental study was done in Khartoum city during summer season to investigate the thermal performance of solar water heating system integrated with PCM using flat plate collector as a heat source. The PCM used was paraffin wax whose melting point is 56 °C. An energy and exergy analysis was done to assess the thermal performance of the system and fix the thermodynamic blemish in the energy system. The outcomes showed that PCM acted as smart material which can regulate the temperature of system in the required range. The outcomes indicated that the overall energy and exergy efficiencies of the system were 85% and 76% respectively. The number of entropy generated was 0.26. The results showed that PCM acted as smart regulator to keep supplying the amount of heat to the system even after the absent of heat source. PCM also could increase the exergy output and led to reduce the exergy destruction. This indicates that the PCM could improve the exergy efficiency. The overall outcomes showed that the PCM optimized the performance of solar water heater system by improve energy and exergy efficiencies.

Municipal solid waste (MSW) alludes to waste produced from residential, commercial, institution and public parks. The MSW is basically treated in three different methods: thermal conversion, biological treatment and landfilling. Landfilling is the process which used in this paper to treat the MSW. This paper aims to design and construct lab scale landfill model to provide a suitable technical solution for energy recovery in Khartoum using organic waste, and additionally to determine the amount of methane gas that can be produced from this landfill model. The methodology of experiment was carried out by digging the land to create a hole with dimensions of (2 m x 1.5 m x 2 m). The next step was construction of the first class of insulation layer recompacted clay. A protective layer was constructed and welded to prevent the leakage of waste water. Leachate collection system insulated was constructed and geotextile layer was added above it. Then, a manual collecting of food waste was done and the creation of the waste layer was carried out. Setup final closure layer was done which contains of geotextile. The landfill was filled in landfill parts to reach the ultimate height as soon as possible. Portable gas analyzer was used to measure CH4 concentrations by volume. The measuring process showed that the concentrations of CH4 vary in range 0.1 % to 0.3%. The results showed that the landfill technology could produce methane gas from organic waste and this indicated that organic waste can be an alternative source of energy.

In industrial processes, reliability, availability, and safety, are always in a high demand. Fault tolerant control (FTC) is fundamental these days in the automation industry. Control systems are susceptible against breakdown because of feasible shortcomings in actuators, sensors or different parts of the system. Equipment disappointment of the dynamic system part has additionally a noteworthy economy affect for causing unpredictable plant shutdown. The primary goal of this paper is to develop a control approach/strategy to estimate errors/faults guarantee a satisfactory performance for the system under both normal and fault environments, in addition to implement the correct fault tolerant identification method that will result in a reliable process of system operation. This can occur in nonlinear water tank systems, linearized around an operation point and performed by a mathematical model. The limit check based-model fault detection was used to detect the fault. The system component work under installed controller with FTC connected to it. Then, fault is emulated and entered independently for every part. After that a controller (with FTC joined to it) is to be reconfigured, when equipment fault occurred. The obtained result shows that, when the faults are injected separately in system components, the tank2 levels is affected and reach below the set point (50%). Within the sight of FTC, when the faults are injected, the proportional, integral, and derivative (PID) controller reconfigure the pump flow rate and valve position to maintain tank2 level.

The need for compact reconfigurable/tunable multiband RF front-end components is becoming an essential requirement for the different RF/MW systems especially with the significantly increasing development in the wireless systems industry. In this paper, fractal Hilbert structure is used to realize a design of compact varactor-based tunable dualband bandpass filter for WiFi/WiMAX applications. Both bandwidth and centre frequency can be tuned effectively; the centre frequency tuning range is 2.1/5.1 – 2.9/5.8 GHz covering the 2.3/2.4/2.5 and 5.8 GHz of the WiFi/WiMAX frequency bands. The bandwidth is also reconfigured to provide narrow passband responses up to 2% of fractional bandwidth. The simulation results show that the proposed design has many good features as the compact size, and the simultaneous control of both passbands through the same individual tuning circuit.

The transmission control protocol TCP is the protocol that is responsible for the reliable data transmission in the TCP/IP standard. Therefore, it has to recover the packets lost via data propagation and retransmit these packets after three duplicate acknowledge. Wait for three duplicate acknowledge could increase the total delay in the network. This work aims to investigate shorter retransmission time. It was proposed that two duplicate acknowledge and the NS2 program was used to simulate the transmission process in the network, taking into account all the factors that affect the transmission. From this project, it has been found that retransmitted lost packets by least time happen when just two duplicate acknowledges were used, and this time rises up when three duplicate acknowledges were used.

Operating temperature is crucial for a Polysilicon Multi-User Micro electro-mechanical system Processes (PolyMUMPs) gas sensor considering the serious impacts on sensors' selectivity and reliability. While it is difficult to measure this operating temperature because the size of the sensor. This paper studies the characterization of micro-heater and temperature sensor made of gold metal, embedded in the device. The measured resistance for the temperature sensor is found to be close to the modelled values within 0.69 % error. Temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) of the temperature sensor in a range of 25-105°C is found. TCR increases Iinearly with increasing the temperature and decreases Iinearly with decreasing the temperature. It was found to be 0.00326/°C for the increasing temperature and 0.0034/°C for the decreasing temperature, compared to 0.00325/°C reported TCR for gold in the literature, with an error of 4.12% and 4.37%, respectively.

Firefighting systems are the most important issue in industrial large corporations and specifically for insurance companies. Any delay in firefighting systems will cause huge economical damages and human casualties. The main objective of this study is to design an early warning firefighting system based on internet of things by monitoring and detecting early signs of fire by using various types of sensors: temperature, humidity, flame, and gas. When any of these sensors’ reading reaches its threshold value, a warning alarm is generated and the system sends a notification email and text message to the user phone and switches off the main power system. But, if unfortunately the fire is started, the system immediately takes the required action by using suitable actuator (valve extinguisher) according to the sensor type. All of these data are uploaded to the monitoring web page and also an android application is provided for the insurance company to monitor its clients industry or corporation. For communication Ethernet shield cable is used for high internet connectivity to avoid interferences. The system was tested and the result are illustrated.

In this work, a low-budget markerless gait analysis application that is aimed at orthopedic care was built and optimized for use in developing countries and small practices. The application utilizes Microsoft Kinect to detect and track body joints and then calculates nine gait parameters that are important for performing a gait assessment. The measurements of the hip flexion/extension, hip abduction/adduction and knee flexion/extension followed the graphs of standard gait pattern. Also they were consistent and homogeneous among all ten participants. Due to the low tracking accuracy for both the ankle and the foot, measurements of ankle plantar flexion and dorsiflexion didn’t follow the trajectory of the standard graph. Moreover, measurements from participants were sparsely distributed across their average value.
