Gas and Temperature Detection System using Microcontroller
Abstract: In current system safety plays an important role, so best safety systems to be implemented in everyday routines. Gas leakage is a major concern with residential, commercial premises, and gas powered transportation vehicles. One of the preventive measures to avoid the danger associated with gas leakage is to install a gas leakage detector at vulnerable locations. The objective of this work is to present the design of a cost effective …

LQR based Optimal Verses Classical PID Controller for the Longitudinal Dynamics of an Aircraft
Abstract: The main objective of the present work is to investigate the design aspect of optimal controller for the pitch control of an aircraft. In this paper Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) for optimal stability analysis of closed loop attitude control system of an aircraft is presented. The result of proposed controller is compared with classical proportional integral derivative (PID) controller. It is observed that the optimal control technique outperforms the PID …

Implication of Reduced Order Modeling for Robust Stability Analysis of Interval Polynomial
Abstract: The main objective of the present work is to investigate the importance of model order reduction technique for the robust stability analysis of interval polynomial. Design of robust control for reduced order model is easier than that for higher order model. In this paper, simple approach is proposed to determine reduced order model of an unstable open-loop attitude control system. This approach is based on Krishnamurthy’s approach on Routh criterion …
