In this paper, the new artificial neural network (ANN) based MPPT method has been proposed for searching maximum power point (MPP) fast and exactly. For the first time, the combined method is proposed, which is established on the ANN-based PV model method and incremental conductance (IncCond) method. The advantage of ANN-based PV model method is the fast MPP approximation base on the ability of ANN according the parameters of PV array that used. The advantage of IncCond method is the ability to search the exactly MPP based on the feedback voltage and current but don't care the characteristic on PV array‥ The effectiveness of proposed algorithm is validated by simulation using Matlab/ Simulink and experimental results using kit field programmable gate array (FPGA) Virtex II pro of Xilinx.","PeriodicalId":379676,"journal":{"name":"International Forum on Strategic Technology 2010","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122707340","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}

These applications include intelligence transportation systems, military robots and mars/lunar robot rovers. However, most of the attention was focused on navigating the robot in day light environment using visual spectrum images captured from CCD cameras. In this paper we propose a terrain segmentation system designed for navigating at night, as well as day time, using images in infra-red(IR) range. For this purpose, texture features based on Speeded-Up Robust Features (SURF) are extracted from IR images and their likelihoods are estimated using machine learning algorithms. The features' likelihood and their spatial positions are applied for image segmentation.","PeriodicalId":379676,"journal":{"name":"International Forum on Strategic Technology 2010","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131998167","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}

However, the performance of the system significantly relies on the water mist characteristics and fire environment and it requires better understanding of fire suppression mechanism of water mist. In the present study, computational fluid dynamics simulations were carried out to investigate the interactions between water mists and fire fields. The gas phase was prepared with natural convection heat transfer model for incompressible ideal case and then the effects of water mist characteristics on cooling capabilities were numerically investigated upon the basis of the predetermined temperature field. For the simulation of water mist behavior, Lagrangian discrete phase model was employed by using a commercial code, FLUENT. Fire suppression efficiency based on different water mist characteristics such as droplet sizes, injection angles, water flow rates and fire types was investigated.","PeriodicalId":379676,"journal":{"name":"International Forum on Strategic Technology 2010","volume":"115 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114299398","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}
