Linear Programming based Model for Design of Looped Water Distribution Networks with Redundancy
Abstract: A new linear programming based two-phased methodology is suggested for design of looped water distribution networks with redundancy. The redundancy is provided against failure of pipes and a network is designed to sustain failure of any one of the link without affecting nodal supplies in a part or full. In the first phase, network is designed under normal pipe working conditions for assumed flow distribution using linear programming. The performance …

The Transient Performance of Power Line Towers
Abstract: This paper presents a refined approach to the transient analysis of power line towers. Each section of the tower’s steel structure is accurately modeled as a non-uniform transmission line. Among other features, an efficient representation of the towers’ cross-arms as open-ended non-uniform lines and their subsequent approximation by lumped capacitors will be explored. Furthermore, the error introduced by neglecting the presence of the cross-arms, as well as the effect of …

The Impact of Faults in Three-phase Transmission Line and Their Detection Techniques: A Review
Abstract: A three three-phase AC transmission line serves to be a key player in the electric power system. Fault occurrence in the lines disturb the continuity of electricity supply and lead to power losses. Various faults like LG, LL, LLG, LLL, LLLG, symmetrical faults, etc. occur in the transmission lines and tend to reduce the system efficiency. During such abnormal conditions, faults are detected through manual and/or automated systems. In an …

Study of Multiple Input Multiple Output Free Space Optical Terrestrial Link
Abstract: AbstractAtmospheric turbulence causes mitigation in the performance of the Free Space Optical Link (FSO) transmission. The performance changes due to scintillation. To reduce the effect of scintillation, we have employed a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) FSO link which gives better performance as compared to Single Input Single Output (SISO) FSO link. We have combined the detector output with different combining techniques i.e. Selection Combining (SC), Equal Gain Combining (EGC) …

Real-Life Demonstration on the Surface-Driven Capillary Flow in Microfluidic Devices
Abstract: AbstractIn this research paper, glass and PMMA are chosen as materials to fabricate the microfluidic devices due to the optical transparency of these materials. The microfluidic devices are fabricated by the maskless lithography (non-contact lithography), hot embossing lithography (contact lithography), indirect bonding technique, and direct bonding technique. The surface-driven capillary flow is recorded corresponding to each microfluidic device by a CMOS camera. The colour-images are compared with the gray-scale-images for …
