Particle Swarm Optimization Framework for Accurate Battery State-of-Charge and Remaining Useful Life Estimation
Abstract: Accurate estimation of the State of Charge (SOC) and State of Health (SOH) of a battery is key to safe and efficient management of batteries in electric vehicles and energy-storage systems. However, it is challenging due to high nonlinearity, varying operating conditions, measurement noise, and limited access to comprehensive electrochemical parameters. Traditional data-driven models often generalize poorly and require heavy tuning, which can produce unstable predictions. To address these problems, …

Design and Development of Onion Storage Shade for Better Ventilation and Longer Life
Abstract: Onions are one of the most important cash crops for farmers in India and many other countries. However, most harvested onions are lost every year due to improper storage. Traditional storage methods, such as keeping onions in heaps under trees, in closed rooms, or in poorly ventilated sheds, do not provide sufficient airflow. As a result, moisture accumulates, leading to sprouting, fungal growth, rotting, and physical damage. These losses reduce …
