Maritime Boundary Protection System Using Floating Station

The Island like Sri Lanka, peninsula like India and the coastal countries are separated by their maritime borders. The people livelihood in coastal area of those countries purely depends on fishing occupation in the sea. The sea border between two countries is not easily identifiable, which is the main reason for this cross border cruelty. The main objective of this system is to help the fishermen to navigate inside our maritime country border. For this we are constructing a Floating Station uses Hybrid power which is placed in the countries border. If a fisherman navigates beyond the country's border, an alarm is generated indicating that the fisherman is nearing the border. 

Along with this we are using RSSI for identification of boat. Additionally a message transmitter is interfaced with this device to send a message in the encoded form to base station indicating that a vessel has crossed the border using IoT. Thus guards can assist and provide additional help to those fishermen if needed.

Estimate the Compressive and Flexural Strength Test of Natural and Recycle Concrete Aggregate

Rapid industrial development causes depletion of natural aggregates, creates a huge amount of waste materials from constructional activities. To utilize recycle concrete aggregates in the production of concrete to reduce such problems. Use of recycle concrete aggregate in concrete is economical and environmentally viable. The main concern of this research is to reuse the demolished concrete as coarse aggregate for building a new structure. 

For this reason, the compressive strength as well as the flexural strength of natural concrete aggregate was compared with recycled concrete aggregate at different curing period. Also, the strength of mixed concrete (NRC) which contains half natural concrete aggregate and half recycles concrete aggregate was determined. Concrete made for recycle aggregate has both enough flexural strength and compressive strength. The 28 days compressive strength and flexural strength of recycle concrete were found 1975 psi and 676 psi respectively.

Assessing the Monthly Variation of Reference Evapotranspiration of Nsukka, Enugu State, Nigeria

The application of suitable water quantity to the crops in irrigation farming is very important for effective crop yields as less or more than the required quantity of water when applied will affect the crop output negatively. The objective of this work was to determine the monthly reference Evapotranspiration of Nsukka, Enugu state of Nigeria, as well as how its variation is affected by temperature change. This work made use of Hargreaves-Samani model of evapotranspiration prediction, using the data of minimum and maximum temperature obtained from NASA's earthdata database. 

It was shown from the results that highest evapotranspirationoccured in February, and lowest occurred in July. It was further observed that reference Evapotranspiration of the study area has a positive correlation coefficient of 0.9927 with the maximum temperature and a negative correlation coefficient of -0.1879 with the minimum temperature. Conclusively, it was stated that reference evapotranspiration was higher in the study area in dry season than in rainy season, and that it was directly proportional to the maximum temperature and inversely to the minimum temperature.

Assessing the Effects of Temperature and Relative Humidity on the Signal Strength of We FM Abuja, Nigeria During Harmattan Period

The effect of temperature and relative humidity on WE FM radio station (106.3MHz) Abuja, Nigeria, during Harmattan period was carried out with the measurement of frequency modulation (FM) signal strength by digital CATV signal meter and the temperature and relative humidity measured by digital Hygrometer/thermometer. It was observed that the signal strength was lower during the sunny period but higher in the morning and evening when there was little or no sun. 

It was also found out that both temperature and relative humidity have effect on the radio station signal strength with the correlation coefficient of -0.79 between signal strength and temperature, and 0.91 between signal strength and relative humidity.It was concluded from the correlation coefficient that signal strength is directly proportional to the relative humidity but inversely proportional to the temperature, but the effect of both was higher in harmattan than in rainy season when compared to our the result of our previous work on the same radio station.

Voice controlled notice board using bluetooth module

Main concept behind Voice operated Electronic notice board using display is to show messages and to control them by using our own voice. We have already seen GSM based Electronic Notice board, however speech controlled Notice board has additional advantage of ease of use. User has to give voice command in his/her own voice to control the messages displayed on electronic notice board. Voice recognition is done in the Android application. User has to install this Android application in his/her smart phone or tablet. 

Bluetooth wireless technology is a popular technique in the field communication, and it is one of the fastest growing fields in the wireless technologies. Bluetooth technology handles the wireless part of the communication channel; it is used in this system to transmit and receive data wirelessly between devices. User needs to install this application. A computer system used for this purpose is called a speech synthesizer, and can be implemented in software or hardware products. An inbuilt Google voice recognition app is used in this system.

Hot Spot Temperature Analysis of Transformer using FEM on COMSOL

The transformers are static bits of mechanical assembly with at least two windings, which by electromagnetic enlistment; change an arrangement of substituting voltage and current into another arrangement of voltage and current for the most part of various esteems and at same recurrence for transmitting electrical power. In a transformer task, a piece of the electrical vitality is changed over into the warmth. That is the reason the exact estimation of temperatures in basic focuses is of down to earth intrigue. Problem area temperature (HST) esteem is a noteworthy factor that straightforwardly influences the task of transformers [1].
