The model considers multi-dimensional aspect of robot-system simulation, characterized by the nature of both Cartesian and polar systems kinematics. Thus model includes electro-mechanical coupling behavior sensor (e.g., pressures sensor) and actuator (e.g., servo motor) in addition to the electrical coupling for the robot control. The electro-mechanical coupling of a sensor is confined to two-dimensional spaces which are structural and electric fields that handle its kinematic behaviour in Cartesian coordinate system. The actuator electro-mechanical coupling combines the electrical and rotational kinematic by preserving energy conservation relation between electrical and mechanical domains. The rotational kinematic quantities of servo-motor such as shaft angle, velocity, acceleration and torque are implemented in polar coordinate system. We demonstrate a robot-system simulation with the developed model to improve the motion of a walking robot.","PeriodicalId":374239,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Symposium on Devices, Circuits and Systems (ISDCS)","volume":"208 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121918779","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}

Packed U Cell (PUC) multilevel inverter is a recent variant, extensively being used in photovoltaic applications as an alternative to meet the shortage in power demands focusing too much on decreasing the installation cost, increase system's efficiency, reliability and modularity. It is important to act to decrease this cost through designing a power conditioning circuit with lower cost. To meet this objective ARDUINO UNO is used in generating and providing pulse width modulated (PWM) signals to control the gates of Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) that constitute the major building block of PUC multilevel inverter. MATLAB/Simulink is used in development of the photovoltaic system which includes PV modules, Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) controller, DC-DC boost converter and PUC inverter.

Hence the underlying routing grid of graphene nanoribbon based circuits and interconnects are aligned to these mentioned degrees only. Such a routing grid is known as triangular routing grid. In the routing paths of graphene nanoribbon based inter-connects some hexagonal obstacles may be present there due to some pre-existing routing paths or due to some other reasons. For a given source, a set of n sink terminals and a set of obstacles in a triangular grid we have to interconnect the source and the sink terminals avoiding the obstacles in such a way that hybrid cost is minimized. Here the interconnect cost due to length and bending is known as hybrid cost. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for the construction of obstacles-avoiding hexagonal steiner tree for graphene nanoribbon based circuits. The algorithm is tested in a random data set and the experimental results are quite encouraging.","PeriodicalId":374239,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Symposium on Devices, Circuits and Systems (ISDCS)","volume":"45 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123407988","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}
