The water quality of the Al-Assi River in Lebanon was assessed by measuring major physiochemical and microbiological properties. This study presented the results of these parameters taken from 10 representative sites along the Al Assi River in Lebanon tributaries. Methods of assessment are also detailed in this paper. The findings showed that some physiochemical variables are within the WHO at several sites (1, 2, and 3). On the other hand, severe contamination sites exist in the river water and identified at several points namely at sites 4,6,7, and 9. Coliform presented in the investigated sites indicates an unacceptable level of pollution coming from untreated sewage outfall directly into the river.","PeriodicalId":153723,"journal":{"name":"2023 Fifth International Conference on Advances in Computational Tools for Engineering Applications (ACTEA)","volume":"100 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132099671","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}

This paper presents a review of the steering control of a self-driving car using Super-Twisting algorithm. The algorithm offers optimal performance and speed when compared to other common controls such as the PID control due to its chattering resistant nature and speed. The algorithm is tested using a real-world servo motor applied on a real car body on the 2021 NXP Racetrack ©, using a set amount of time expected to complete the track at a certain speed. The Super-Twisting algorithm is applied on the motor with the required steering angles for the racetrack with respect to time as the reference input, and it is compared to an implemented PID Control. The results show the superior performance of the Super-Twisting SMC in this application compared to the PID control, offering the best option of control resulting in better line following and hence better overall time on the circuit.","PeriodicalId":153723,"journal":{"name":"2023 Fifth International Conference on Advances in Computational Tools for Engineering Applications (ACTEA)","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115005009","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}

Researchers have been exploring new technologies to prevent cold weather-related weakening of concrete pavement and achieve environmental sustainability. This paper evaluates the possibility of incorporating oil Phase Change Material (PCM) in concrete pavement to decrease its structural deterioration and reduce the cost of maintenance and impact on the environment. For this purpose, several concrete mixtures were designed by incorporating a certain percentage of PCM by weight in the mix: 1% and 2% of PCM. The mechanical properties of PCM infused concrete are compared to those of traditional concrete pavement. The results for both mixes show some decrease in workability while almost a similar behavior is observed for the compressive and flexural strengths. The mix with 1% PCM shows better efficiency with respect to the life cycle of the pavement.","PeriodicalId":153723,"journal":{"name":"2023 Fifth International Conference on Advances in Computational Tools for Engineering Applications (ACTEA)","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127700243","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}

This study employed both theoretical and computational methodologies to investigate the relationship between temperature and efficiency. To model the performance of the solar cell under varying temperatures, theoretical equations relating the temperature of the cell to the cell's efficiency were developed, and MATLAB SIMULINK was used to develop a computational model showing the output power of a solar cell under varying temperatures. Our findings reveal that the efficiency of an LR5-72HPH 545 Watts solar cell decreases from 21.3% at 25°C to 17.41% at 70°C. The results of the theoretical and computational studies were compared and found to have a small error of 1.05%, proving that computational modeling can be relied on to accurately predict solar cell performance, where this model is valuable since it allows a to analyze the effect of temperature on solar cells in a way that is simpler and faster to achieve than theoretical methods. However, by employing suitable cooling systems, it is possible to limit the impacts of temperature, which is critical for the development of more efficient and dependable solar cells, particularly in high-temperature conditions.","PeriodicalId":153723,"journal":{"name":"2023 Fifth International Conference on Advances in Computational Tools for Engineering Applications (ACTEA)","volume":"259 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127543666","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}
