The present study uses a neural network pattern recognition tool to determine its efficacy in identifying the gender of individual participants. For this purpose, the ground reaction force patterns of 33 individuals (comprising healthy male as well as female participants) were recorded over the course of 132 trials. The peak and trough parameters were established for each pattern and used as inputs for the algorithm. These data clusters were used to train, test and validate the neural network using a pattern recognition tool. The results of this work show that this network presents capability of identifying the gender of participants from the peak ground reaction force parameters.

The quality of short term electricity demand forecasting is essential for all the energy market players for operation and trading activities. Electricity demand is significantly affected by non linear factors such as climatic condition, calendar and other seasonality have been widely reported in literature. Seasonality exists when electricity load influenced by seasonal factors such as types of days, months or variation of temperature. Therefore, seasonality is considered as one of the main challenging variable in forecasting. Many authors use multiple variables to capture all kinds of seasonal information. In this paper, we address this issue with very simple, but impressive technique on the historical load data called as interaction of variables and construct univariate multiple linear regression very carefully. This model can capture double seasonality: daily and weekly seasonal effect of electricity load and forecasting performance improve significantly. For this purpose, we select two models-model A that can capture double seasonality, and model B is constructed adding some interaction terms among variables so that it can capture more information of electricity patterns. And obviously model B perform better performance because of interaction terms included in model.

This paper presents condition assessment in transmission line asset for maintenance scheduling management in Thailand's transmission network. The score and weight techniques are applied to the condition assessment. The component of transmission system such as conductor, conductor accessories, insulator, steel structure, foundation, lightning protection, tower accessories and right of way are evaluated while sub-components of each component and classified. The 10 of 115 kV transmission lines in Thailand are evaluated as example in the assessment program. The results show the health index of component, health index of tower and health index of transmission line in form of percentage. The cost of maintenance is considered to plan effective maintenance scheduling for transmission system.

An additional anti-tampering is integrated to the smart meter unit to achieve more collectable evidences. A built-in high definition camera is another solution to accomplish still picture and video recording of an illegal person who approaches a smart meter to cheat electricity billing. In this paper, terminal cover opening, smart meter frame opening and electrical lines bypassing are three abnormal events that are investigated, in which the face detection of the person who stands in front of an Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) smart meter will be detected and recorded. This action is performed by a separated camera controller unit inside smart meter. The Haar cascades algorithm is the important mechanism for face detection powered by Raspberry Pi3. The face detection process can be done for several face angles; therefore, the proposed system is sufficiently effective for realistic application, as shown in the experimental results.

Due to the maturity of technological development, widespread use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (DAVs) is becoming prevalent in the civil and commercial sectors. One promising area of application is in emergency rescue support. As recently seen in a number of natural catastrophes such as the hurricanes in Texas, Florida and Puerto Rico, major communication and electrical infrastructure is knocked out, leading to an inability to communicate between the victims and rescuers on the ground as well as between rescuers themselves. This paper studies the feasibility of using heterogeneous teams of UAVs to rapidly deliver and establish ad hoc communication networks in operational environments through autonomous in-air delivery of CommKits that serve as nodes in local ad hoc networks. Hardware and software infrastructures for autonomous CommKit delivery in addition to CommKit specification and construction is considered. The results of initial evaluation of two design alternatives for CommKits are presented based on more than 25 real flight tests in different weather conditions using a commercial small-scale UAV platform.

The challenging problem of globally stable position and speed estimation of synchronous reluctance motors is solved with the proposed flux observer. Global stability is assured by the introduction of a new fictitious flux variable in the motor's model. Rotor position and speed are estimated from the fictitious flux using a vector phase-locked loop. Theoretical results are verified by simulation which shows stable estimation and good sensorless performances under various operating conditions.

This research presents the design of wideband dipole antenna. A simple printed dipole antenna structure is investigated for its wideband radiation performance by using slot etching and matching technique to improve the impedance bandwidth. In the simulated and measured results, the proposed antenna is explored to cover the DTV frequency band as 66.5 7 % (463–925 MHz). The wideband dipole antenna radiates omni-directionally throughout the operating frequency band. The proposed antenna has the antenna gain of 2.34 dBi with reflection coefficient less than −10 dB. Therefore, the proposed antenna is very much compatible to digital television signal receiving applications.

This paper focuses on assessment of the electric potential (EP) due to lightning strike into the overhead ground wire (OHGW) in power distribution line. Power distribution line and substation of provincial electricity authority (PEA) model used in the current distribution electromagnetic interference grounding and soil structure (CDEGS) program has five models. For simulation of lightning current, the lightning impulse waveforms according to IEC 62305-1. Waveforms have a time interval of $pmb{0.25/100 mu} mathbf{s}$ and $pmb{10/350 mu} mathbf{s}$ generated in the CDEGS program for lightning current testing. Lightning current with a peak value of 34.40 kA is the value of lightning current in Thailand. The study results confirmed that connect the OHGW (case 4) is an effective way to help decrease the EP.

This research presents the study of the relationship between sensor response and the odor perception in human in order to standardize the odor measurement. For an everyday life odorant that caused strong odors to human, eight samples were chosen to test by using ammonia and hydrogen sulfide sensor to compare with the questionnaire of how thirty subjects response in annoyance and perceived odor strength. The result shows that both of the strongest odorants of sensor response and human's perceived odor in strength were ethanol, ammonia, and nail polish remover, respectively. There was a consistent relationship between the sensor response and the human's odor perception in odor strength, not including to the annoyance due to the complexity of individual sensory odor. The odorants that human can be perceived as the strong odors, the measured odor strength was high as well when sensory factors and individual's bias are not taken into account.
