Bund Breakage Predictor and Automatic Field Irrigation System
Abstract: Bunds are one among the most common techniques used in agriculture to collect surface run off, increase water infiltration and prevent soil erosion. Their principle is comparably simple by building bunds along the contour lines, water runoff is slowed down which leads to increased water infiltration and enhanced soil moisture. Water is an important resource for agriculture. Bund breakage predictor and automatic field irrigation system is used to calculate the …

Behaviour of Irregular Concrete Buildings under Seismic Forces
Abstract: The study of irregularities in a building is a fundamental parameter controlling the seismic response of buildings. From the past history of earthquakes, it is evident that the use of improper structural configurationswith plan irregularities and soft storeys has decisive effects on the seismic performance of buildings. The buildings with abrupt changes in storey stiffness have uneven lateral force distribution along the height, whichis likely to locally induce stress concentration. …

Effects of Specific Heat Ratio and Cut-off Ratio on the Performance of an Irreversible Dual Cycle
Abstract: This study is aimed to investigate the effects of specific heat ratio and cut-off ratio on the Dual cycle performance. The variation in the power output and thermal efficiency with compression ratio, peak temperature of the cycle, specific heat ratio and cut-off ratio are presented. The result shows that with decrease in compression ratio up to a value, the increase in specific ratio lowers specific work output and increases efficiency …

Self-similarities in Hilbert Envelope Energy Regions on Motion Waveforms Application in Detecting Motion Irregularities in Video Frames
Abstract: This paper introduces self-similar Hilbert envelope energy regions that are commonly found in oscillating spectral curves. The time-varying amplitudes and peak value frequencies in typical spectral curves reflect the response of a system to external stimuli. A Hilbert envelope is a smooth curve connected between spectral curve peak values. Each peak value on an envelope curve at time identifies an envelope-bounded region with interior area (called Hilbert envelope energy region …
