The antenna was designed for a centre frequency of 6.32 GHz within C-Band which was excited using micro-strip line feed. The bandwidth of the simulated antenna was achieved as 66.1 MHz with a return loss of 21.7 dB at the centre resonant frequency. The observed resonance frequency at the centre was found to be 6.32 GHz with a return loss of 37.55 dB for the locally fabricated antenna. The -10 dB bandwidth of the fabricated design was determined as 251 MHz. Impedance presented at central frequency was 51.2 ohm that indicates an outstanding impedance-matching between antenna and feed line. The obtained results indicate that the fabricated antenna is suitable for its applications in C-band.","PeriodicalId":259216,"journal":{"name":"NED University Journal of Research","volume":"142 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115182053","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}

The presented study is a first attempt to achieve the target of delaying the natural transition to turbulence. The behaviour of two different shaped and sized stationary disturbances (in the laboratory frame) on the rotating-disk boundary layer flow is investigated. These disturbances are placed at dimensionless radial location (Rf = 340) which lies within the convectively unstable zone over a rotating-disk. Mean velocity profiles were measured using constant-temperature hot-wire anemometry. By careful analysis of experimental data, the instability of these disturbance wakes and its estimated orientation within the boundary-layer were investigated.","PeriodicalId":259216,"journal":{"name":"NED University Journal of Research","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130487157","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}

Since feedback controllers alone cannot provide perfect tracking control, an integration of feedback and feed forward controller is required. A cascaded iterative learning control (ILC) technique for position control of EHSS is proposed in this paper. ILC is a feed forward controller which modifies the reference signal for a feedback fractional order proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller by learning through current control input and previous error obtained through trails. Unlike other feed forward controllers, ILC works on signal instead of system which eliminates the need of complete knowledge of the system. As compared to other controllers, the proposed technique provides fast convergence without the need of reconfiguring the existing control loop. Simulation and experiments revealed the effectiveness of the proposed technique for EHSS. The obtained results indicated eight percent improvement in rise time and nearly twenty one percent improvement in the settling time.","PeriodicalId":259216,"journal":{"name":"NED University Journal of Research","volume":"2015 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121767615","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}

Kernel based schemes are most widely used for reducing cross-terms. However, these schemes suffer from the intrinsic give and take between auto-term resolution and cross-term suppression. This paper presents a cross-term suppression scheme by combining directional filtering with image processing. This scheme retains the resolution of auto-term while significantly reducing cross-terms. The performance comparison with other methods demonstrates that the proposed method is superior compared to other methods in terms of cross-term suppression and energy concentration.","PeriodicalId":259216,"journal":{"name":"NED University Journal of Research","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124261066","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}

Various recent studies, however, have shown that the explicit consideration of SSI effects in seismic analysis of buildings structures may significantly affect the predicted seismic demands and resulting structural performance. This study addresses some key issues and practices in the area of SSI and its effects on the dynamic response and seismic performance of buildings. It is also intended to demonstrate the significance of considering SSI effects in structural modelling and analysis while providing key insights into practical applications in real projects. Using a forty storey example building, the effect of considering SSI on the predicted seismic performance is demonstrated. For the purpose of comparison, five detailed computer models (one without considering any SSI effects, two models with SSI modelled using indirect approach, and two models with SSI modelled using direct approach) of the example building were constructed and subjected to various input ground motions. It is observed that depending upon the modelling approach used, the consideration of SSI effects may affect the predicted seismic performance in varying degrees. Moreover, the direct modelling approach presented in this study may provide improved results compared to various approximate methods.","PeriodicalId":259216,"journal":{"name":"NED University Journal of Research","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124632927","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}

Over the last twenty years, the Tower has successfully undergone a number of interventions to reduce its inclination. Despite its importance in the Italian cultural heritage, no studies about the dynamic behaviour of this monument had been carried out until the 1990s. Starting from the results obtained by the Committee for the Safeguard of the Tower, a novel investigation campaign about the dynamic parameters characterising the Tower has begun in 2014. This paper aims at discussing the main results obtained until today. After a short history of the construction and of the interventions on the Tower, the following topics are discussed: a review of historical seismicity, dynamic identification, definition of seismic input, site response analysis, and seismic response accounting for soil-structure interaction. The studies made on the Tower highlight the importance of soil-structure interaction in the survival of the Tower due to strong seismic events since the middle ages.","PeriodicalId":259216,"journal":{"name":"NED University Journal of Research","volume":"110 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131602289","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}

In the scope of this study, a literature review is conducted on the changes of mechanical characteristics of concrete and reinforcement caused by a fire with a particular emphasis on the post-cooling stage. Post-cooling behaviour of RC members is different than the behaviour under elevated temperatures and hence it is of vital importance on structural seismic performance assessment after a fire. Apart from material-wise assessment methodologies, post-fire seismic performance of RC structural members is also discussed through post-fire simulated seismic loading tests conducted on full-scale cast-in-place and precast columns. The test results pointed out to a reduction in lateral load bearing capacity of the cast-in-place columns subjected to fire whereas fire-exposed precast columns demonstrated better performance in terms of residual lateral load capacity due to the lower axial load and larger heights. All columns exhibited satisfactory performance in terms of ductility.","PeriodicalId":259216,"journal":{"name":"NED University Journal of Research","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127153869","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}

Monolithic connections between the deck and sub-structure allow, on one side, to increase the structure redundancy and reduce the maintenance costs. However, from the other side, soil-structure effects are also introduced due to the interactions between the abutment and the backfill and between the pile and soil induced by thermal variations, long-term effects (creep and shrinkage) and dynamic loads, such as earthquakes. Several authors have investigated the soil-structure interaction for IABs both theoretically and experimentally, but there is still a lack of common line guidelines and codes. After a literature review of the main studies regarding the seismic response of IABs, this paper introduces some recent contributions given by investigators in this field. In particular, the following topics are discussed: (a) an experimental study on an innovative deck to pier/abutment joint; (b) the possibility of using prestressed concrete or ultra-high performance piles in IABs; (c) a pile isolation technique based on a pre-hole filled with damping materials; and (d) a research project supported by European Union inside the Horizon 2020 SERA project on the seismic behaviour of novel integral abutment bridges. The paper clearly demonstrates the potential applications of the proposed technologies for IABs built in seismic zones.","PeriodicalId":259216,"journal":{"name":"NED University Journal of Research","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114172587","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}
