The numerals are broadly classified into two groups based on the presence and position of blobs and stems in them. Since different writing styles are used by different persons, morphological operations with the same structuring elements (SEs) do not yield satisfactory result. Thus, this paper proposes a scheme for automatic generation of SEs based on common handwriting styles. Also the SEs are scaled automatically according to the size of the handwritten digits in order to make the algorithm more robust and efficient. Since, this method does not require any kind of `learning' to work, it is considerably faster than other machine learning based algorithms. Also, it does not require training samples. The present algorithm is tested on a large database of Bengali handwritten digits and its performance and accuracy are also determined.","PeriodicalId":443343,"journal":{"name":"2016 2nd International Conference on Control, Instrumentation, Energy & Communication (CIEC)","volume":"268 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129080858","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 grid architecture of urban India is ring type where in rural side it is mostly radial is nature. In radial topology, power source is located in one point of the distribution line and the loads are connected to the other ends. The power normally distributed from point of common coupling (PCC) to the receiving end bus. Due to this kind of architecture of the rural grid, the short circuit capacity (SCC) of the line becomes very low and grid impedance becomes very high. Due to these inherent features, the rural grid is weak in nature and it is called weak distribution grid. The main difficulty to connect wind turbines to a weak grid is the voltage and frequency instability. The X/R ratio of the distribution network plays an important role to determine the health of the grid i.e. whether it is weak or strong. A limiting value of the bus voltage can also be investigated by which the injection of active and reactive power from wind turbine can be restricted to the grid for maintaining the voltage stability at PCC. In this paper a wind generator connected with low voltage distribution system has been simulated in PSCAD/EMTDC software to observe the different grid parameters such as voltage, active and reactive power against line X/R ratio to find out the limiting condition of voltage for strong and weak grid.","PeriodicalId":443343,"journal":{"name":"2016 2nd International Conference on Control, Instrumentation, Energy & Communication (CIEC)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132043598","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}

Out of the many evaluation metrics in use, convergence metric and hypervolume indicator have gained immense attention. This paper demonstrates how optimality obtained with respect to one or both of these metrics can be misleading at times. The demonstration is done in two-dimensional scenarios which suggests that the disadvantages of these metrics can be more pronounced when the applications are in higher dimensional space which not only has scalability issues but also where visualization of the space is not feasible. The paper is concluded stating the need for efficient evaluation metric which will accumulate information from the Pareto-Front in terms of convergence, diversity, number of solution (discarding outliers) and shape of the surface.","PeriodicalId":443343,"journal":{"name":"2016 2nd International Conference on Control, Instrumentation, Energy & Communication (CIEC)","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133153889","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 increase in size of wind turbines the shaft stiffness, viscous friction coefficient, drive train gear ratio and generator inertia constant have influence on the transient response of wind energy systems. The steady state and transient stability analysis with pole-zero study has been done by considering these four parameters. The severity of faults is studied in detail.

The proposed methods were examined under laboratorial set-up keeping rotating speed and or load variation remains unchanged. And the practical situations of external vibrational effect and noises from various sources of process plant also have not been considered in a vast way. This paper delivers a brief idea of the identification of bearing faulty harmonics which are collected by accelerometer during running condition under random variation of both, speed and load of the motor with the presence of non-stationary external vibrations. The study also revealed that, faulty bearing can be identified from the vibration signal, by programming the PLC based system to collect vibration data only when process enters into some predefined situation, and thereafter by analyzing the vibration amplitude using standard deviation the faulty bearing can be identified.","PeriodicalId":443343,"journal":{"name":"2016 2nd International Conference on Control, Instrumentation, Energy & Communication (CIEC)","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122384640","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 SISFCL accomplishes this by altering the magnetic state of its ferromagnetic core material between saturation and unsaturation, thereby producing low impedance during normal operation and high impedance during faulted condition. In this paper, the mathematical model of a three-phase SISFCL is simulated using numerical methods in the MATLAB software environment. The effect of magnetic hysteresis of the core material is incorporated in the simulation via the Jiles-Atherton hysteresis model. The performance of the SISFCL is analysed against variations of the different circuit parameters namely, the fault resistance, DC bias current, number of turns of the AC and DC coil winding.","PeriodicalId":443343,"journal":{"name":"2016 2nd International Conference on Control, Instrumentation, Energy & Communication (CIEC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127194343","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}
