Therefore, attempt has been made to understand the impact of copper sulphide diffusion into the pressboard material on its dielectric properties. The experimental results of dielectric behavior of transformer oil affected by copper sulphide diffusion will be discussed and the mechanisms of failure will be elucidated.

The robots typically carry a vision system to gather information about the environment and pass on to remotely-located rescue teams. When the robot moves, in view of the uneven nature of the terrain, the camera is subjected to vibrations and as a result, the transmitted videos tend to be unclear. Further, real-time data collection and processing are critical for quick action by rescue personnel. In this work, we explore a robust…

Mudnur Abstract :- Decoupling approximation for the performance analysis of IEEE 802.11 DCF MAC is critical due to the problem of state space explosion associated with its exact DTMC model. In this work, we study the validity of the two widely used models of DCF MAC based on the decoupling approximation, namely fixed point analysis andmean field model. In the current literature, the validity of the two models is verified from the nature of the solution of the models i.e. unique fixed point…

A large disturbance such as a fault, followed by a loss of a system component, may lead to cascading outages. Hence, it is important to predict, online, the stability of the system when subjected to large disturbances. The prediction of stability can be done by system simulation and one can take…

Retinal color fundus images, captured by fundus camera, are used to detect the visual signs related to AMD even in pre-symptomatic stages. This research work aims to develop a set of image analysis algorithms for detecting AMD at various stages on retinal color fundus images, which could be integrated to create a system for AMD screening. We…
