Analysis of Smoothing Effect of Residential Electricity Demand Using Measured
Data
Toshihide Sato, Tomoko Iwata and Ryuji Matsuhashi
The university of Tokyo, Japan
Abstract—Community Energy Management System (CEMS) is remarkable system
and has the attention currently. It is important that we estimate total residential
electricity demand when we build CEMS. However, this estimate is difficult because
the residential electricity consumption changes sharply. This change can become
smaller by smoothing effect when some households are considered together. In this
paper, we analyze and compare the smoothing effect of statics level with one of the
level calculated using measured data. As a result, the smoothing effect of residential
electricity demand is appeared to some degree. In addition, this effect is different
due to season and time. we can estimate the 99% confidence demand intervals of
households’ electricity demand in summer at 64% ~ 136% and that in winter at 74%
~ 126% at most widely when CEMS community has 65 households.

Economic Value of Grid-Scale Storage in Wholesale Electricity Markets
Kyle Anderson and Abbas El Gamal
Stanford University, USA
Abstract—Grid-scale energy storage promises many benefits, such as shifting peak
load and providing regulation service. Previous studies focused on either computing
the intrinsic economic value of grid-scale storage under an ideal market model or
computing the cash flow of storage providing peak load shifting. This paper presents
a methodology for estimating the cash flow of an independently owned and operated
storage unit pursuing a dual strategy of peak load shifting and regulation service. We
estimate the present value (PV) of storage cash flow by solving a stochastic linear
program that determines the optimal charging schedule based on future energy and
regulation spot prices. We apply this methodology to two representative storage
technologies using NEISO market data and show they currently offer modest returns

with the potential for substantially better returns as renewable penetration increases
and storage cost decreases.

Optimal Placement of TCSC in Power Market
Tran Phuong Nam, Dinh Thanh Viet, La van Ut and Le Dinh Hieu
Hue Industrial College, Vietnam
Abstract—Nowadays, the operation of power systems in the power market model
has been researched and applied by many countries. At the same time, power
systems operation becomes more important as the load demand increases all over the
world. This change ensure the power system security as well as ensure the power
market economy. Thyristor controlled series compensator (TCSC) devices can play
very important role in power system congestion management. Due to high capital
investment, it is necessary to locate these devices optimally in the power system.
The scope of this paper is to decide optimal location of TCSC by congestion
improvement and social welfare index. The effectiveness of proposed method
is demonstrated on IEEE-39 bus test power system.

Effects of Dfig Wind Power Generation on Vietnam Power System
Van-Tan Tran, Tsai-Hsiang Chen and Thanh-Luu Cao
National Taiwan University of Science and Technology, Taiwan
Abstract—This study shows steady state and dynamic analyses of doubly-fed
induction generators (DFIGs) by mean of integrated comprehensive powerful
software, PSS/E. The DFIG wind turbine model built in PSS/E version 32 was
appliedto the simulation of a bulk power system in Soc Trang, Vietnam. The bulk
power system was reducedto an equivalent power system before simulation was
performed. The main purpose of this research is to observe, analyze and evaluate
dynamic responses of the DFIG wind turbineto different disturbances such as a short
circuit, loss of a generator and so on. The simulation results show that using
uninterrupted operation and fast control of a DFIG converter, the DFIG wind turbines
responded successfully to a symmetrical three-phase fault under the transient fault
condition. Both voltage and frequency of the power system are critical important

factorsfor the assessment of influences of wind power on the intended power system
transient behaviors and stability. Also controlling the pitch angle of DFIG wind
turbines to obtain the expected power output is worthy of attention.

Performance Modeling and Parametric Analysis of a Double Glazed Solar Oven
Abdul Waheed Badar, Syed Ali Zaryab, Zain Ul Abedin and Muhammad Yasin
Khan
University of Sciences and Technology, Sector H-12, Islamabad, Pakistan
Abstract—This paper investigates the thermal performance of a unique box type solar
oven whose five sides are exposed to ambient and provisions are also provided to
install the reflectors to enhance the intensity of incident solar radiation on the oven.
Experiments were performed where temperatures attained inside the box cavity are
recorded on different days and times of the day corresponding to various intensities of
available solar radiation. A steady sate heat transfer numerical model of the solar oven
without reflectors is also developed based on six individual thermal resistance
networks which account for the heat losses through each flat-side of the oven box and
a good agreement with the experimental data is achieved. A parametric study based on
numerical calculations and experiments is then carried out to study the effects of
various parameters on oven’s thermal performance, e.g. number of glazings, distance
between glazings and box, type of absorber coating, etc. Higher box temperature is
attained using double glazing than single glazing. As compared to black paint,
selective surface coating results in significantly higher oven temperatures (up to 40
o
C). Plate spacing of 20-30 mm is found to be optimum distance between oven box
and glass covers.

Application of Grid-level Battery Energy Storage System to Wind Power
Fluctuation Smoothing
Tsai-Hsiang Chen, Rih-Neng Liao, Chun-Yen Yang, and Yen-Hsun Chiang
National Taiwan University of Science and Technology, Taiwan
Abstract—Fluctuations in the output power of large-scale wind farms can have a
considerable influence on power quality and stability, leading to the risk of grid
frequency deviation, particularlyin isolated power system. Fluctuations in wind
power can be smoothing through the inclusion of wind-storage system. In this
system,wind turbines are connected with battery energy storage system (BESS).This
paper proposes a novel operation control strategy, referred to as prediction-based
control (PBC). The proposed strategy (which utilizes predicted changes in wind
power generation) can effectively smooth the fluctuation in the output power of
wind farms (WFs), based on the concept of confidence intervals. Furthermore, the
rolling-wave planning and dynamic control of the BESS enhances its capacity.
Finally, the proposed control strategy provides an avenue by which to examine the
characteristics of large-scale WFs and BESS for better planning, design, and
operations.

Voltage Standardization of DC Distribution System for DC Residential Buildings
Rajeev Kumar Chauhan, Bharat Singh Rajpurohit and Robert Hebner
Indian Institute of Technology Mandi, India
Abstract—The renewable energy sources (RES) such as photovoltaic (PV) are
basically DC power sources. In the present scenario, the integration of RES to
power distribution infrastructure necessitates the DC-AC converter. Moreover the
DC loads in the buildings is ever increasing with the use of CFL, LED, refrigerator,
TV, fan, air conditioner, laptop, and other electronics in workplaces and homes.
This forced to introduce the internal or external AC-DC converter to tie the DC load
to AC distribution infrastructure of existing power system. This is further adding
losses and complexity. This AC-DC converter stage can be reduces up to a certain
level by DC distribution system (DCDS). Secondly the multi voltage rating of RES
and DC load insists to introduce DC-DC converter in DCDS infrastructure. This will
further add losses and complexity. In this paper a standard voltage level DCDS is
proposed to minimize the system losses, complexity. To verify the simulated results
in terms of building load and converter losses, a DCDS equipped with different
energy sources like solar panel (PV), public utility (PU) and battery bank (BB) is
compared with ACDS.

Feasibility Analysis for the Application of Grid Connected Solar Photovoltaic
Technologies in Food Manufacturing Plant
Joy Dassgupta, Zeinab Haji Abolhasani, Romeo Marian
University of South Australia
Abstract—In Singapore, food manufacturing plants currently receive electricity from
the national grid supply where the power generation is mainly based on fossil fuels.
Singapore lacks land mass, and thus there are limited possible sources of renewable
energy for the generation of electricity. Solar energy therefore, might be a buoyant
source for the fulfilment of the country's energy requirements in the manufacturing
sector. Moreover, solar energy technologies are environmentally friendly. This paper
describes a feasibility study for the application of grid connected solar photovoltaic
technologies in a food manufacturing plant. The study may help to discover
opportunities for using solar energy to fulfil the electrical energy needs in food
manufacturing facilities while contributing to an emission free environment.

Short-Term Wind Speed Forecasting with A Cascade Hybrid Method
Sivanagaraja Tatinati and Kalyana C. Veluvolu
Kyungpook National University, South Korea
Abstract—In this paper, a hybrid method based on empirical mode decomposition
(EMD), Autoregressive model (AR) and least-squares support vector machine
(LS-SVM) is proposed for short term forecasting of wind speed (hourly forecasting).
EMD has been employed to decompose the non-stationary wind speed time series
into independent intrinsic functions (IMFs). Each IMF is then forecasted with a
cascaded structure of AR model and LS-SVM. In the proposed cascade structure,
AR model forecasts the IMFs and LS-SVM is employed to model the exogenous
variables of AR model. The aggregate of the forecasted IMFs with the cascade

Day-ahead Electricity Price Forecasting Using Relevance Vector Machine
Yubo Wang, K. C. Veluvolu
Kyungpook National University, South Korea
Abstract—The number of countries that have been switching from central regulated
power distribution system to a competitive market scheme has been growing. All
participants of that group require forecasted market price to gain an upper-hand in
the biding and negotiation process. Due to the importance of day-ahead electricity
market, it attracts a lot of research in developing price forecast algorithms. In this
work, a RVM based day-ahead price forecast algorithm is proposed and tested on
day-ahead price of the locational marginal pricing (LMP) obtained from the
Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland (PJM) market. The feature vector for RVM is
constructed by using delay embedding theorem. The optimal embedding dimension
and prediction horizon is identified. Simulation results show that RVM based
algorithm is capable of capturing the daily and weekly pattern of day-ahead LMP.

Nover Strategy for BLDC Motor Rotor Position Detection
Cao Lingzhi and Yang Shenghao
Zhengzhou University of Light Industry, China
Abstract—The detection of rotor position plays an important role in the motor
speed-adjustment system. By analyzing the back-EMF method and its improved
methods, we know the amplitude of back-EMF is too small to be detected when the
motor run at low speed. A new detection method of rotor position has been proposed
in this paper. It detects the zero crossing point of line terminal voltage difference to
acquire the rotor position signal after a 90 degrees mechanical angle delay. The
amplitude of line terminal voltage difference is large in wide speed range, so the
rotor position signal can be accurately acquired in most situations. Simulation
results proved that the new method can obtain the rotor position signal exactly in
both high and low speed. It meets the wide speed range of motor.

Abstract—Natural flyers are the best source of inspiration for making successful MAVs.
Hummingbirds are known for their excellent flight characteristics such as long duration
hovering, backward flying, high agility, etc. Giant hummingbird is chosen as the
bio-inspiration for designing the wing. Wings are required to be light, strong, and fatigue
resistant to be used for MAV applications. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs)/Polypropylene (PP)
composite is chosen as the wing membrane material whereas carbon fiber (CF)/epoxy (E)
composite is chosen for wing frame. Two types of wings are fabricated, one is CNTs/PP
wing and another is CF/E frame with CNTs/PP membrane wing. Kinematics, structural
dynamics, and aerodynamics are the main component of flapping flight studies. Modal
analysis of fabricated wings is done using 3D visual image correlation (VIC-3D) and
laser displacement sensor setup. In the end, the results of both type wings are compared
with experimental results and a good correlation has been seen. The validation of results
is done using Ansys.

Abstract—STL file is the defacto industry standard in the field of rapid prototyping (RP)
currently. The STL file loading and visualization effect greatly influences the subsequent
processes of RP. Firstly, the feature of the STL file format is analyzed. On this basis, an
algorithm for loading the STL file is proposed. The rapid loading and visualization of
STL file in ASCII format is implemented in the VC++ 6.0 programing environment
combined with the OpenGL graphics library. During the loading process, the redundant
data in the STL file is eliminated by comparing and deleting the overlapped vertexes. As
a result, the storage space is reduced and the processing efficiency is improved. Finally,
experiments show the effect of rapid STL file loading and visualization. It provides a
good basis for the subsequent processes of RP.

Web-based Conceptual Design Support System
Dereje Engida Woldemichael and Fakhruldin Mohd Hashim
Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS, Malaysia
Abstract—Conceptual design is one of the most critical and important phase of design
with least computer support. This paper presents an extension of a standalone conceptual
design support tool developed previously by the authors on a web-based environment.
The proposed framework is suitable for collaborative design which is performed by
multiple participants, each potentially capable of proposing values for design issues
and/or evaluating these choices. The framework uses design reuse philosophy which
plays a major role in product development especially during the early concept generation
phase supplementing the designer’s knowledge by providing stored knowledge outside
the designer’s area of expertise. The reused design knowledge from existing product has
an advantage of being tested for reliability in previous design and may inspire the
designer to generate new concepts. Based on this philosophy, a web-based conceptual
design support system (CDSS) has been developed and deployed on a local server which
can be accessed on intranet network. The CDSS can be used either to generate new
concepts from the design repository (database) or from the designer which can be added
to the repository through knowledge acquisition module for future design.

Abstract—This paper describes the application of active flow control for the NLR7301
supercritical airfoil/flap configuration at Re = 2.51x106. A parametric analysis is
conducted to investigate the effects of jet parameters (jet direction, jet location and
momentum coefficient) on the aerodynamic performance of a multi-element airfoil. The
results indicate that flow separation is delayed and efficiency of jet can be improved with

objective of this paper is to investigate the effectiveness of the proposed TFC algorithm
compared to GRD. These algorithms are applied to a quarter heavy vehicle models,
where the objective of the proposed controller is to reduce unsprung force (tire force).
The simulation model was developed and simulated using MATLAB Simulink software.
The use of semi active MR damper using TFC is analytically studied. Ride test was
conducted at three different speeds and three bump heights, and the simulation results of
TFC and GRD are compared and analysed. The results showed that the proposed
controller is able to reduced tire force significantly compared to GRD control strategy.

Abstract—This paper discusses the use of centralized control method in an Intelligent
18
2014 IACSIT Singapore Conferences
Energy Management System (iEMS) to prevent voltage violation after load transfer
between distribution feeders with high PV penetration level. The proposed method
comprises three control modes with different control algorithms for regulating both
reactive and active power output of PV inverters in a distribution system with multiple
PV installations. Before the execution of load transfer, the total reactive power
compensation required at the critical Point of Common Coupling (PCC) is solved by the
reactance of distribution feeder line segment to prevent system voltage violation. With
the proposed control algorithms, the iEMS dispatches total reactive power compensation
among PV systems according to the reactance of line segment and issues the control
command to each PV inverter for adjustment of PV power generation so that the
ancillary service of voltage support can be provided by all PV systems in a fairer manner.
A practical Cimei island distribution feeder pair is selected for computer simulation to
verify the effectiveness of the proposed control method after load transfer between two
feeders.

Robust Backstepping Controller for Grid-Side Converter of Doubly Fed Induction
Generator Enabling Low Voltage Ride Through
Hyoung-Woo Kim, Cheol-Jin An, Sung-Mun Park and Joon Young Choi
Pusan National University, South Korea
Abstract—A robust backstepping controller with nonlinear damping is designed for
grid-side converter of doubly fed induction generator in wind energy conversion systems
in order to enable low-voltage ride-through (LVRT). The designed controller achieves the
exponential ultimate boundedness of the systems errors with an arbitrarily fast decay rate
and an arbitrarily small bound in the presence of grid faults. A desirable feature that
distinguishes the proposed controller from other existing controllers is that the proposed
controller is able to perform both the normal control operation and LVRT with a single
reference input, and it is constructed only by static feedback of measured states. As a
result, the control input becomes smooth and easy to implement without requiring of
differentiation or switching operations. The exponential boundedness and performance of
the designed controller are demonstrated by simulation using SimPowerSystems in Matlab
and compared with a proportional-integral LVRT controllers.

Abstract—Electrical Distribution systems that are radially configured with one utility
power source are inherently exposed to higher rates of outages and interruptions, due to
failures of system components, including: transformers, breakers and switching devices.
In addition, fault conditions can also be caused by weather, animals or human error.
Historically in Saudi Arabia, many industrial and residential distribution networks
suffered from these problems. Large-size, growing demand and cost — with the time
requirements for enhancement projects — results in distributed generation (DG) — as

by reliability indices that include System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI),
Customer Average Interruption Duration Index (CAIDI) and Energy Not Supplied

Using Indoor Environmental Sensors for Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring
Thamir Alshehri
Queensland University of Technology, Australia
Abstract—There are a number of factors driving concerns about the energy usage within
buildings. These range from system wide issues, such as greenhouse gas reduction and
reducing peak load (to control distribution network capital investment), through to
individual consumer issues, such as reducing overall power consumption, deciding when
to replace appliances and equipment and maximising the advantages of differential tariffs
where these are available. Non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) is an inexpensive way
to examine live electricity consumption. However, previous work has shown that
“signatures” of power profiles of appliances and equipment by themselves are not
sufficient to reliably distinguish amongst many smaller loads. Environmental sensors
have been added to installations to improve the accuracy of recognition. Previous studies
have also shown that only a small proportion of users take a long-term interest in
monitoring energy usage. This identifies the need to capture as much of the necessary
user input to configure a NILM system in the first days of installation.
This paper will describe the approach we have used to combine environmental sensor
data with the standard NILM appliance signatures to improve the recognition of usage
patterns within domestic premises. This includes early profiling of appliances with
occupant involvement and mapping of appliances, equipment and environmental sensors
within the residence. The manner in which the system is structured to provide eventual
autonomous support to users will also be covered.

Abstract—SnO2 nanowires have been fabricated using thermal evaporation of the
mixed powders of SnO2 and active carbon with Au catalysts. The morphology and
structure of the prepared nanowires are determined on the basis of field-emission
scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer
(EDS), x-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The
comb-shape interdigitating electrode made by MEMS technology is used to
auxiliary investigating the gas sensing performance of the synthesized SnO2
nanowires. The SnO2 nanowires have sensing response to acetylene concentration of
1000 ppm under operated temperature of 300℃. The gas sensing mechanism is

Abstract—In this study, the influence of workrest positions on the deflection of a
crankshaft is investigated, in order to enhance the machining precision in orbital
grinding. Crankshafts of 3m, 5m and 8m are selected, and three types of states (no
machining, journal machining and pin machining) are studied. The model is
simplified with stiffnesses applied to the stock instead of real contact between
workrest and stock. As the workrests are positioned to the machining region, the
deflection of the machined stock is reduced. Pin machining shows more stable result

SRM University, India
Abstract—The performance improvement in Electrical Discharge Machining
process is a tedious one in materials and manufacturing processes especially in
making of complex die and moulds. Due to non linear nature of this process,
conventional pulse generators such as RC pulse generator and transistor pulse train
generator cannot produce uniform energy distribution. Since RC pulse generator can
produce smaller crater volume, it can make better surface finish than transistor pulse
train generator crater size is influenced by the discharge current produced during the
machining process. Due to its stochastic behavior, the discharge current is varied for
every spark. The modified iso current pulse generator can produce uniform energy
distribution with smaller crater size. In this study, EDM drilling experiments have
been conducted on AISI 304 stainless steel with the RC pulse generator, Transistor
pulse generator and iso energy pulse generator in electrical erosion process. The
effects of these pulse generators on surface characterization have been evaluated and
analyzed. From the evaluation results, it has been detected that the iso energy pulse
generator has produced better surface structure than conventional pulse generators.

Prince Mohammad Bin Fahd University, Saudi Arabia
Abstract—Spacecraft, irrespective of their mission’s purpose, contain a number of
moving mechanical assemblies such as control moment gyros, momentum/ reaction
wheels, gyroscopes, scanners, solar array drives, etc. Most problems encountered
with these moving systems are related to tribology and, specifically, lubrication.
Lubrication problems result from the loss of lubricant from the working zone by
evaporation, surface migration, etc. Therefore, to ensure long-term uninterrupted
performance of these systems, an efficient lubricant replenishment system is
essential. This article describes various lubricating methods and lubrication systems
used for the successful operation of some of these systems for the entire mission

Abstract—In this paper, we investigated characteristics of human's upper limb
extension with shoulder movements when the grasped object was moved from one
point to other point. In cases where the goal position is put in a farther place than the
length of the extended arm, not only the velocity profile of the hand by extension
exercise but also that of the shoulder by anteflexion exercise are bell-shaped. These
two exercises are simultaneously performed, but the hand velocity becomes a peak
earlier in comparison with the shoulder one. Reproducing the measured human data,
the exercises of a three-link arm with shoulder or body movements are simulated
and the characteristics of a human-likeness fusion are examined by shifting the start
time of the shoulder movement. As an evaluation result, it was found that the
relation between the velocity peak positions of the hand and shoulder remarkably
influences on the human-likeness.

Abstract—An investigation has been done to numerically simulate the radiation
losses which occur due to laser energy deposition in a domain of interest. Although
the fluid dynamic effects due to laser energy deposition has been studied by a
number of researchers independently but the effect of radiation has either been
neglected or has not been highlighted effectively. When laser energy is deposited in
a domain, very high temperatures are reached. At such high temperature, the

diatomic air species may become highly dissociated and emission from the resulting
two mono atomic species N and O cannot be neglected and is the major source of
radiation loss. Accurate prediction of radiation losses, hence, become necessary to
minimize the errors in heat transfer calculations. An Open Source CFD software
Open Foam has been used to study the above effects. P1 radiation model along with
radiation Line by Line code has been used to calculate the radiation losses. Radiation
losses obtained are 20 times higher as compared to the past reported data.

Abstract—Voltage sag disturbance can cause catastrophe failures to both utility and
end users of electrical power. The causes of this disturbance include power system
fault condition and induction motor starting. This paper presents a research to
classify the causes of voltage sag by employing Multi Resolution Analysis (MRA)
and Support Vector Machines (SVM). Voltage sag data are obtained from the
implementation of various fault conditions and induction motor starting using
PSCAD modeling and data generation. Multi Resolution Analysis (MRA) is
developed as a representation of a signal with various levels of decomposition for
the features extraction. The two features used are the minimum and maximum of
voltage and the energy distribution of ten decomposition levels of the MRA. Those
features are used as the input for classification using Support Vector Machines
(SVM). In classification part, the Radial Basis Function (RBF) kernel of the SVM
has been used. The result shows that the MRA and SVM can classify the source of
voltage sag with promising accuracy.

Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, India
Abstract—Waste Cooking Biodiesel has high potential as a new and renewable
energy source in the future, as a substitution fuel for diesel and can be used in
existing diesel engine without modification. But the major quality issue associated
with biodiesel to use it as engine fuel is its poor cold flow property. The poor cold
flow property results in gum formation and crystallization of fuel particles which
lead to solidification of fuel lines and filters and creates the fuel starvation which
will ultimately lead to starting problem in engine. The objective of this study to
investigate and improve the cold flow properties of Waste cooking biodiesel by
blending and winterization. Blending was found to be more favourable for
improvement in cold flow properties of biodiesel without any effect on yield. The
result of experimental investigation shows that Cloud Point and Pour Point of Waste
cooking biodiesel (WCB100) is improved from 14.5⁰C to 9⁰C and 13.7⁰C to 7.5⁰C
respectively by three step winterization at the rate of 0.2⁰C at each step. The result
also show that 20% ethanol blending lead to drastic improvement in cold flow
properties of waste cooking biodiesel and makes it suitable to be used in cold

SSN College of Engineering, India
Abstract—Numerical simulations in machining processes are dependent on the flow
stress input data. The flow stress is computed from empirical models which depend
on number of material parameters, the values of which are derived from various
mathematical optimization techniques. The derived flow stress parameters vary
based on the nature of techniques used and the flow stress testing procedure utilized.
This results in variations in the numerical simulation results when working with
different models. In this work, the Johnson Cook flow stress model is tested for its
sensitivity towards the finite element (FE) results. Orthogonal turning is conducted
with AA 6082 (T6) aluminium alloy and the process is simulated in Deform 2D. The
flow stress computed from the Johnson Cook model is input to the FE code and the
cutting force and chip thickness recorded. The FE results are input to the Minitab
statistical code and an optimization process conducted based on the orthogonal
arrays concept. The comparative study reveals the sensitivity of the five parameters

This type of parallel mechanism has high rigidity against external disturbances and
accordingly high stiffness and precision. The target aiming requires 2 degrees of
freedom and this 3 DOF mechanism has one redundancy. For fast manipulation of
the proposed mechanism, the redundancy can be exploited and an optimal solution
can be found out of the infinite number of inverse kinematic solutions. For finding a

Frictional Contact Stress Analysis of Spur Gear by Using Finite Element Method

UNIVERSITI TEKNOLOGI PETRONAS, MALAYSIA
Abstract—Spur gear is used to transfer rotary motion between parallel shafts. The
simplicity in its design is one of the advantages of the spur gear. However higher
frictional force that is accumulated on the gear teeth will influence the spur gear
performance. Many previous papers elaborated more about the contact stress in the
spur gear but few of them gave the details on how friction affects the gear teeth. In
this paper, contact stress of spur gear has been evaluated with and without friction.
There is an insufficient frictional effect data in the gear and thus should be regarded
as an important research parameter. In this work, Hertz theory, AGMA standard and
finite element method (FEM) have been employed. The frictionless contact stress
result has been validated with both the theoretical methods with minimum deviation.
Frictional coefficient range of 0.0 to 0.3 was selected and the corresponding contact
stress is directly proportional to the friction coefficient. The work also involves the
variation of face width of the gear set under the influence of friction. The contact
stress of spur gear was found to be inversely proportional to face width.

Abstract—Anodizing process conducted in Al7xxx/SiC produced non-uniform
thickness of porous anodic film with cavities, micro-pores and micro-cracks. Cerium
sealing was chosen as a post treatment to remedy the poor anodic film by providing
a composite layer in order to further enhance the corrosion resistance in aggressive
environment. In this study, anodizing process was conducted in H2SO4 solution at
current density values of 15, 20, and 25 mA/cm2 at room temperature, 0oC and
-25oC for 30 minutes. Subsequently, electroless sealing was conducted in
CeCl3.6H2O + H2O2 solution at room temperature and pH 9 for 30 minutes.
Integrated protection composed of anodizing at 0oC and cerium sealing process in
surface of anodic oxide layer. These spherical deposits covered the entire surface of
anodic oxide layer in accordance with the morphology of the oxide layer. Otherwise,
almost no cerium deposit formed on the surface of the oxide layer by conducted
integrated protection at room temperature and -25oC. The integrated process
conducted at anodizing temperature of 0oC presented a highest protection degree.
The cerium protective layer which leads to the decreasing of corrosion rate and
current density up to 99,99% or four orders magnifications than that of bare
composite.

Preparation and Characterization of Nickel and Copper Oxide/Hydroxide Films on
Stainless Steels Substrates for Use As Cathodes In Alkaline Water Electrolysi
Paulo S. D. de Brito, David P. Cardoso and Luiz F. Rodrigues
Instituto Politécnico de Portalegre, Portugal
Abstract—The production high purity hydrogen by water electrolysis based
renewable sources as a mean to store energy, has gained some attention in the last
years due to the high specific energy of hydrogen, the potentially neutral carbon and
zero emission of the usage of H2 as fuel. However, it remains certainly necessary to
develop efficient and lower cost electrolyzers. Such a situation requires the search
for and the development of inexpensive and stable electrode materials, showing low
polarization to hydrogen evolution reduction (HER). In this work copper and nickel
oxides were studied for use as electrodes for the reduction of hydrogen in alkaline
water electrolysis. The nickel and copper oxide composites coatings were deposited
30
2014 IACSIT Singapore Conferences
electrochemically as oxides/hydroxides on a stainless steel (SS) electrode and
characterized using electrochemical methods such as cyclic voltammetry (CV),
cathodic polarization and Tafel slops. The HER was studied using as electrolytic
cathodes unmodified AISI 304 stainless steel (SS), nickel coated stainless steel
(SS/Ni), copper coated stainless steel (SS/Cu), and nickel (under layer) and copper
(top layer) coated stainless steel (SS/Ni/Cu) in 5 M KOH solution. It was found
that, the SS/Ni/Cu electrode presents good electrocatalytic activity and stability
toward the HER, compared to the SS electrodes modified by single nickel oxide
layer. This behavior seems be explained by the synergistic interaction of Ni and Cu
with Fe present in the stainless steel.

Particle Swarm Optimization based Empirical Correlation for Prediction of Hydrate
Formation in Deep-water Pipeline
Aijaz Abbasi and Fakhruldin M Hashim
Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS, Malaysia
Abstract—Since formation of hydrate in deep water pipeline could cause problems
such as decreasing hydrocarbon production and increasing operational cost and time,
this work offers to ascertain when and where hydrate will form with respect to
change in pressure and temperature in deep water gas pipeline. The pressure is
relatively high in deep water pipeline, and it is entirely possible to meet the hydrate
formation conditions and pose a significant operational and security challenge. The
study aims to develop a correlation that will help in finding hydrate formation
pressure and temperature conditions of gas mixture flowing in deep water pipeline.
The correlation is based on gas hydrates formation temperature with and without
concentration of inhibitors. On the basis of existing published experimental data
from the work by ‘E. Dendy Sloan’ and ‘Riki Kabayashi’, a new correlation will be
developed using Particle Swarm Optimization. This research provides an effective
coefficients for predicting hydrate formation Pressure / Temperature conditions for
deep water gas pipeline.

Abstract—Evaluation of service at the airport is important for the passenger
satisfaction. Based on the evaluation results, the management of the airport can
decide what can be done to improve the system. In this research, we have evaluated
and improved the performance of the departure terminal system at Soekarno-Hatta
International Airport using simulation and line balancing methods. There are several
steps in the research: evaluating the performance of existing system using simulation
method: optimizing the system using line balancing and simulation methods: and
analysing the results of the optimization process. The results show that the
performance of the optimization process can decrease passenger processing and

Understanding the Usefulness of Supply Chain Technology in Malaysian Textile
and Apparel Industry

Abstract—Through the rapid innovation of technology and increasing affordability,
it was transformed from a means of convenience to indispensable tools for work,
socialization, entertainment, and learning. Given the relevance of the topic, the
purpose of this study was aimed to explore the usefulness of supply chain
technology (SCT) adoption in Malaysian textile and apparel (T&A) industry. The
nature of this industry is characterized as a huge dynamic flow of physical,
information, and financial. Undoubtedly, to handle the delicate nature of this
business, the position of SCT has increased not only in the manufacturing sector, but
also in smooth movement of upstream and downstream of the supply chain. Thus,
the understanding and practicing of SCT adoption has become a crucial prerequisite
for keeping competitive in the global race. Even though technology is widely
implemented and studied in many industries and countries by researchers, but the
study of adoption of SCT in Malaysian T&A industry is insufficient. In view of the
significance given to Third Industrial Master Plan by the government Malaysia, it is
necessary to recognize the stimulus of SCT adoptions. The results suggest and
highlight the extent of SCT adoption and the benefits perceived by T&A companies
from SCTs. This study believed that SCT adoption could be beneficial to both
internal and external supply chains. The result of this study could be used as a
precursor to support future researchers in further investigation on this extent.

Abstract—The phenomenon in which the variation of upstream members' orders is
amplified than the variation of downstream members' demands in the supply chain is
called the bullwhip effect (BWEF). Most of existing research studies did not realize
the demand dependency of market demands. Thus, this research focused on the
study of the influence of the demand correlation coefficient between two market
groups on the BWEF. The incoming demand processes are assumed the separate
first-order moving average, [MA(1)] demand patterns. The scope of the supply chain
structure used in this research is composed of one manufacturer and two distribution
centers. The general result reveals that the coefficient of correlation is one of several
factors affecting the BWEF.

Ecology and water supply based multi-objective optimal dispatch model and its case
study in Yangtze basin
Xuemin Wang, Jianzhong Zhou and Chao Wang
Huazhong University of Science & Technology, China
Abstract—The cascade reservoir dispatching based on the ecology and water supply
is a new topic in recent years. This paper present the Ecology and Water-supply
Based Multi-objective Optimal Dispatch Model (EWSB-MODM) with three
objectives: ecological benefit, water supply benefit and power generation benefit.
Then, by using the Monthly Frequency Computation method and considering the
ecological factors (includes the breeding of Chinese sturgeon and the four major
Chinese carps, preventing saltwater intrusion, avoiding dissolved gas supersaturation
and the water level control of the Dongting and Poyang Lake), this paper defines the
suitable ecological flow for the Three Gorges Cascade (TGC), which is taken as the
ecological benefit criterion. Meanwhile, with a view to the situation of water
demands and the local water shortage risks appearing in the upper and middle
reaches of the Yangtze River, the water requirement is determined, and it is
converted into the water supply rate as the criterion of the water supply benefits.
Finally, this paper imports the multi-objective differential evolution algorithm
(MODE) to solving the engineering case of the Three Gorges cascade. Results show
that the model and method proposed in this paper can gain non inferior solution set
which is uniform distributed and meets the ecological and water supply benefits,
providing a scientific basis for reservoir schedulers to make the reasonable decision.

The ecological optimization dispatch of the Three Gorges reservoir considering
aquatic organism protection
Chao Wang, Jianzhong Zhou and Xuemin Wang
Huazhong University of Science & Technology, China
Abstract—This paper focus on the ecological optimization operation problem of the
Three Gorges reservoir in flood recession. In this season, the primary goal of the
reservoir is impounding to get the maximum economic benefit. As people increasing
concern about their environment, impact of the reservoir operation to the aquatic
habitat at the downstream area becomes an increasing important factor. The conflict
between economic benefit and habitat conservation makes the dispatch a
multi-objective problem. In this paper, stored energy at the end of dispatch period is
proposed to be the economic objective and the weighted usable area (WUA) of the
habitat is used to represent the environmental demand. The multi-objective
differential evolution (MODE) and a particular constraint handling strategy
proposed in this paper are used to solve this problem. Simulation results show that
the proposed constraint handling strategy improves the performance of MODE in
solving this problem. More importantly, the Pareto optimal front of different
operating condition shows that the conflict between economic benefit and
34
2014 IACSIT Singapore Conferences
environmental benefit is sharp, especially in low flow years. The degree of conflict
relates to the value of average inflow. So it is necessary to consider the habitat
conservation while operating. And this work provides a support to aquatic organism
protection and ecological operation of the Three Gorges reservoir．

Analysis of Earthing System Cabinet of Telekom Malaysia
David Caulker and Annuar Ramli
TM R&D SDN BHD, CYBERJAYA, SEPANG, SELANGOR, MALAYSIA
Abstract—This paper investigated the impact on the earthing systems of cabinets of
Telekom Malaysia(TM) when subjected to dangerous voltages due to current
injection from remote sources. TM have received numerous cases regarding the
failures of their cabinets due to power related issues (PRI) as well as lightning.
These failures may have occurred partly due to the existing earthing systems
installations. This research aims to determine earthing impedance of 5 ohms or less
of TM cabinets with respect to local soil conditions. Low impedance earthing is not
easy to realize mainly due to the local soil resistivity, layering and structures. To
achieve a low impedance of below 5 ohms as per Telekom Malaysia’s requirement,
three types of earthing electrodes were modelled and simulated using CDEGS
computer simulation software. Results have demonstrated that the existing earthing
system of 3 rods practice by TM is sufficient for areas of resistivity less than
500Ω-m. Combination of rectangular and vertical rods for resistivity of 500Ω-m
above is the preferred choice of earthing. Analysis and discussions presented in this
study can be used as a guide for TM for their cabinet installations. Results also
highlighted that achieving less than 5Ω does not constitute a safe earthing system.
Other parameters have to be taken into account before ascertain which type of
earthing to be used in a specific location of a TM installation.

Abstract—Power failures in a number of electric systems worldwide emphasize the
importance of security of electric supply. Security of supply involves long term
resource adequacy and medium to short term generation reserve management.
Generation reserve requirements are usually determined using empirical rules
36
2014 IACSIT Singapore Conferences
considering the demand as a deterministic quantity. Ignoring randomness could lead
to suboptimal decisions. The research presented here differs from that prevailing in
the literature by considering the demand as a random variable following a doubly
truncated normal distribution this has the advantage of allowing considering day to
day and seasonal variations. In this paper two new mathematical models are
presented to determine generation reserve requirements for a market in which the
regulator imposes an extremely high load curtailment cost in any unmet demand and
delegates the role of buying generation reserves on the generators in a secondary
market. These models are helpful tools to study analytically or by numerical
simulation the interactions between the two markets. A potential scope for application
of the proposed models is presented for the Colombian electric market.
