Markov Chain Analysis Of Rainfall Sum In A Small Hungarian Municipality | ||||||||
The sequential process of rainy and rainless days as a physical system has been studied with Markov chains since the 1960s. However, in recent years there have been several publications in which the Markov chain analysis of annual precipitation sum has also been applied. This is a rather novel approach to the statistical analysis of precipitation sums, although the process itself is already known in several other hydrological processes. In this paper, the annual precipitation sums in a small municipality of Hungary and its region applying Markov chain were analysed based on 30-year data series. The data set was subjected to a normality test, and each year was classified into five categories (states) based on the amount of rainfall that year. With the help of a transition probability matrix, the invariant distributions of each category..........

Attenuation of Dust and Sand Storms of Microwave Signal at Sabha City | ||||||||
Dust and sand storms attenuation is one of the main problem in usage of microwave bands for
terrestrial and DB satellite at desert areas. This paper present and enforce a mathematical version to are
expecting the microwave sign attenuation because of dust and sand storm withinside city of Sabha. The foremost
enter parameters for the version are visibility, sign frequency, the quantity of dust particular sand humidity. The
offered version successfully predicts the microwave sign attenuation. The effects display that the attenuation
will increase with frequencies and humidity and reduces with visibilities. The observe located out that the very
best values of attenuation in sabha city varies from 0.13 to 9.78 dB/km at humidity 60%. The final results of this
observe will facilitate the layout of dependable conversation structures through thinking about the attenuation
traits because of atmospheric situations that may permit mitigation of channel fading circumstance through
adaptively choosing suitable propagation parameters.

Experimental Study of Design and Implementation Classical Controller into Fuel cell/Battery Hybrid System | ||||||||
In this study of power management, the hybrid system consists of a 1.2kW Nexa PEM fuel cell, three 12V batteries, DC/DC converters to power Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV). The control strategy is control the power between the FC and the battery by using PID controller is based on the following principle: The PEMFC is the main power supply for the electric engine driving the propeller and has to be operated at optimal efficiency. In the case that the FC cannot completely supply the power demands, the battery will provide short burst power demands as required. Simultaneously the FC should keep the battery sufficient charged at all times. The maximum NexaPEM fuel cell efficiency is about 50% at part load and drop to 38% at full power. All the goals above were achieved through control of the voltage and current of the step-down bidirectional DC6350F-S converter in batteries side.

Evaluation of salinity effect on growth and productivity of Rhodes grass (Chloris gayana) | ||||||||
For many years, saline lands have been a problem for agricultural investment, so this study aimed to evaluate the growth and productivity of Rhodes grass under the conditions of the environmental stress of salinity on two types of soils (sandy soil and sandy clay soil) in Wadi Al Shate region (in southern Libya) in summer 2013. By determining the percentage germination and growth indicators of seedling and measurement of some of the apparent characteristics of the vegetative and root, as well as the study of the most soil characteristics affecting plant growth. The results showed the ability of the plant to grow during soil salinity up to 300 mM/L sodium chloride but with significant damage, and it is noticed that it excretes these salts through the vegetative part of the plant.............

Production, Characterization and Optimization of Biodegradable Plastic from Corn starch and Sugarcane Bagasse | ||||||||
There is an increasing need for biodegradable plastics because of they are environmentally friendly and can replace petroleum-based non-degradable plastics which pollute the environment. Recently huge efforts are exerted in substitution of petroleum based polymers by biodegradable ecofriendly composites because of the toxic effect of the synthetic polymers. Petroleum base polymers are not sustainable as they depend on depleting fossils. This work studies the effect of Bagasse (sugarcane byproduct) fiber weight fraction on starch based composite.............

Synthesis of a printed loop rectenna using metamaterials for effective RF energy harvesting | ||||||||
Radio-frequency (RF) energy harvesting (RFEH) has gained significant scientific attention as an efficient and promising method of enabling self-sustainable wireless sensors and networks. Metamaterial-enabled structures have been widely deployed to enhance the performance of a plethora of RF devices, especially in the microwave frequency regime. In this paper, a novel approach is presented on designing a low profile and compact rectenna (antenna and rectifier) employing a printed loop antenna integrated with a uniform Electromagnetic Band-Gap (EBG) structure operating at the 940MHz frequency regime. The presented analytical results proved that the proposed hybrid rectenna is superior to a respective rectenna without the EBG arrangement..............

A new approach for solving fractional partial Differential equations via a collocation method based on Muntz- Legendre polynomials | ||||||||
In this paper, a numerical method for calculating the approximate solution of fractional partial differential
equations (FPDEs) using a collocation method based on Muntez-Legendre polynomials has been presented.
Having specific properties, Muntz-Legendre polynomials are one of the most suitable basis for solving partial
differential equations with fractional orders via a collocation method. In this method, we convert FPDEs to a
system of algebraic equations, which can be solved by computer using symbolic methods. The presented method
is more accurate and more efficient than other methods presented in other papers, we examine this issue using
a number of examples.

Fatigue resistance of reinforced asphalt concrete for flexible pavement | ||||||||
Fatigue model of asphalt mixture is a major factor determining the life of pavement in mechanical-empirical pavement design. Tensile strength is a very important factor in this fatigue model. The purpose of this study is to confirm the resistance to fatigue fracture through the tensile strength of various modifiers of asphalt mixture. A total of 15 specimens were prepared and the data of indirect tensile tests of asphalt concrete mixed with rubber and polymer-based modifiers at 10, 20, and 30°C are analyzed and introduced.

Comparative Analysis of Artificial Immune Recognition System based Classifiers for Intrusion Detection | ||||||||
Artificial immune recognition systems are inspired by the human immune systems. The human immune systems has the amazing characteristics of reacting against any foreign molecule. Such characteristics are highly desirable for the development of anomaly based network intrusion detection system. In this paper artificial immune recognition system based classifier techniques have been proposed for building a robust and accurate intrusion detection system using three classifiers namely AIRS1, AIRS2, and CLONALG. Further, three statistical based feature selection methods namely, Relief-F, One-R, Chi-Squared Attribute Evaluator and three entropy based methods namely, Symmetrical Uncertainty, Information Gain, and Gain Ratio have been employed for selection of relevant features. The performance of the model has been evaluated using ten metrics including Matthews Correlation Coefficient, Geometric Mean, and Kappa Coefficient.

An Analytical Study on Municipal Solid Waste Management in India –Special Reference to Rohtak City | ||||||||
Waste Management is one of the most pressing environmental issues the world is facing today. India is second largest populated country in the world. Urbanization & industrialization leading to migration of people which leads to expansion of cities. Pressure on basic services and infrastructure is increasing which causes serious problem of solid waste management across many Indian cities. Unmanaged MSW disposal at landfills or dumpsites, annual GHG emission from MSW causing environmental, social and economic problems. This is due to the absence of waste segregation-at-source, deficient management capacities, a lack of data regarding waste stream composition and insufficient financing and enforcement of existing regulation and policies...........
