The simulation takes the driver as a fuzzy model and the overall vehicle as a non-linear model for calculating the motor and battery requirements according to the terrain, driver commands and traffic condition.","PeriodicalId":117199,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference on Industrial and Information Systems (ICIIS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122126981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With practical constraints that anatomy teachers face today, they seek to improve the quality of teaching using computer aided novel teaching methods. In this paper, we propose a cadaver dissection simulator based on the digital anatomical images of Visible Human Project dataset. The simulator would be used as a pre-lab tool to get familiar with the dissection process. Students are able to interact with the tool and define an organ or an area of a region to be removed. By defining and removing each successive organ/region, dissection could be carried out as it is being done in the laboratory. The original true colour is preserved in the rendered volume to impart a real life experience. In developing the simulator, the original digital images were pre-processed by “The Visible Human Preprocessing Toolkit” plug-in of ImageJ. Further processing was done through the Visualization Toolkit (VTK) to remove unnecessary patches that remained in the background. Segmentation of the preprocessed images was carried out by the “LiveWire” plug-in in ImageJ. Finally, true colour visualization was carried out through VTK. We successfully demonstrated the simulator for dissection in the abdomen region.","PeriodicalId":117199,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference on Industrial and Information Systems (ICIIS)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124237849","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore voltage vector PLL based control together with DC-link voltage regulation is implemented. Here the HVDC both end VSC are operated with very similar controls and the only difference is one is operated as main and the other operated as sub. The main VSC controls the power flow and other follow up the main. The proposed system is modeled using PSCAD/EMTDC. Whilst the Impact of frequency variation and sudden load rejection due to one of the grid system failure is being analyzed in this paper, the reactive power control at both ends VSC to support the voltage regulation is also being studied. Simulation results show as to how the transients due to frequency fluctuation and country blackout will impact the HVDC transmission line's operations.","PeriodicalId":117199,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference on Industrial and Information Systems (ICIIS)","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113965589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
