AbstractDesigning the control structures of fractional order PID controllers has proven to be effective in providing adaptability in set point tracing the performance of a nonlinear cruise control system. Wheel rolling resistance, wind drag force, and road gradient are incorporated into the design to better describe the system under consideration and to show how the nonlinear cruise control system behaves. This study presents a comparative investigation using simulation between control structures such as fractional order proportional–integral–derivative, fractional order integral minus proportional derivative, and fractional order proportional integral minus derivative. By preserving integral error indices as the goal function, a genetic algorithm is used to improve the controller gain parameters and fractional scaling values. To prevent integral windup conflicts and derivative boost issues, both traditional fractional order structures and adaptive neuro-fuzzy-based fractional order structures were used to create the adaptive cruise control system. The FO ANFIS PD plus I controller for the cruise control system exceeds the competition in servo and regulatory difficulties.

Natural fiber-based composites demonstrate excellent and comparable static and dynamic mechanical properties to conventional materials, such as steel and aluminum. They also extend their applications to aeronautical, sports equipment, and marine fields. This experimental study aims to find the effect of untreated and treated Abaca-reinforced epoxy composites on the viscoelastic behavior and the optimum combinations of fiber and resin to produce better bonding efficiency. The different specimens used for this study were pure epoxy, untreated, and chemically treated composite specimens. The four weight percentages of Abaca fibers are 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40% used to prepare composite specimens. Similarly, four different sodium hydroxide (NaOH) concentrations, 4, 6, 8, and 10 wt. %/vol. %, have been used for the chemical treatment of fibers. The storage modulus of Abaca-reinforced epoxy composite specimen has been investigated with respect to temperature and fiber content. The result shows that the 30% weight fraction of fibers with chemically (8 wt. %/vol. %) treated fiber-reinforced epoxy specimen produces 41.67% higher storage modulus than the 10% weight fraction of fibers content of composite specimens. Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) broad transmittance has been used to distinguish the raw and chemically treated fibers. FTIR results reveal the removal of functional groups after NaOH treatment.

The proposed paper presents an innovative approach to enhance the efficiency and performance of photovoltaic (PV) systems through the design and analysis of a 15-level multilevel inverter. The proposed inverter topology employs a modified H-bridge configuration utilizing 12 switches, aimed at improving voltage control, reducing harmonic distortion, and enabling efficient power conversion. The modified H-bridge architecture allows for achieving 15 distinct voltage levels, enabling precise control of the output waveform. The design emphasizes optimizing the modulation strategy to effectively manage the switching of the 12 switches effectively, minimizing switching losses and ensuring an efficient energy conversion process. The resulting voltage levels contribute to better output waveform quality and reduced total harmonic distortion. Furthermore, the proposed topology offers scalability and adaptability, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including grid-connected PV systems, motor drives, and uninterruptible power supplies. The advantages of the modified H-bridge configuration, in terms of reduced component count and enhanced controllability, contribute to the practicality and feasibility of the proposed inverter topology. The design's ability to achieve 15 voltage levels while employing a limited number of switches highlights its applicability and appeal for renewable energy integration and other relevant power electronics applications. Further experimental validation and real-world implementation are recommended to substantiate the theoretical findings and validate the practical advantages of the proposed inverter topology.

AbstractThe utilization of electric energy is rising in the technological world. Solar PV (photovoltaic) cells convert sunlight into electricity, and sunlight radiation also has heat, reducing the panel's efficiency. The heat should control the limited value or otherwise reduce the panel's performance so that heat is moved to the cooling medium, thus maintaining the heat within the functioning limit. The proposed method is explained by the probability of cooling the monocrystalline and polycrystalline structures used as neem oil through an integrated oil container fitted into the unit's backside—the neem oil acts as phase-changing material (PCM). The solar PV rear side neem oil absorbs the heat of the solar PV panel. The neem oil is not filled in the backside tank completely for the reason that the oil needed some breathing gap. The breathing gap of PCM is to enhance the heat-withstand efficiency. The backside neem oil is replaced every 30 min. As an outcome, the front side of solar PV heat is reduced. Neem oil has not polluted the environment and is thus also used to exchange noxious mineral oils. The neem oil moved from the depository tank to the backside of the unit and together into an additional depositor tank, thus being able to be reused. The proposed method is investigated, and functioning comparison occurs in different PV types, such as monocrystalline and polycrystalline modules, with various kinds of edible oil. Thus, the critical outcomes of the monocrystalline and polycrystalline PV panels are to decrease the panel temperature by 2.29% and 4.34%, respectively, and enhance the efficiency of the PV panels by 15.0% and 17.8%, respectively.

AbstractSulfite is a common food additive that prevents oxidation from damaging food nutrients, and it has long been used in the food industry as a bleaching agent. It can harm the human body if taken wrongly or excessively. In this study, three dyes (cresol red, chlorophenol red, and bromocresol green) were explored to analyze the presence of sodium sulfite (SS) in an inexpensive, disposable paper sensor with a lower visible detection limit of 0.05 M. This visual paper sensor detects sodium sulfite with high selectivity and sensitivity at room temperature. An IoT-based sensor was also developed to practically apply the developed method, which is rapid and low-cost and can replace heavy-duty instruments. Both these sensors can substantially impact scenarios such as food quality monitoring and detecting sodium sulfite in medicinal items. Graphical Abstract

AbstractThe metamaterial sensor antenna is numerically designed to detect breast cancer using breast cancer cell lines, especially relying on the electrical characteristics of breast cancer cells, and designed antenna is measured and the results are observed. The metamaterial sensor antenna is a simple and efficient antenna which is designed using the Minkowski fractal curve with a ring-shaped Split Ring Resonator (SRR). The SRR is chosen because of its inductive and capacitive resonating properties. In addition, the Minkowski fractal curve is used as a defective ground structure to improve sensor sensitivity and selectivity. The numerical investigations are based on different iterations of the Minkowski fractal curve. In that iteration, the third iteration of the Minkowski fractal gives better results. The designed antenna is tested with breast cancer cell lines, and it resonates at a frequency of 2.35, 2.42, and 2.52 GHz for different dielectric constants and conductivity. The simulated design antenna is tested with different cancer cell lines like MDA-MB-231, MCF-7, and HS758-T to ensure its performance and selectivity. The measured result of the fabricated antenna shows that the antenna design resonates at the same frequency as the simulated antenna results.
