Digital twins / Kavita Saini (2023)  

Public ISBD Titre : Digital twins : the Industry 4.0 use cases: the technologies, tools, platforms and applications Type de document : document électronique Auteurs : Kavita Saini, Auteur Editeur : New York : Nova Science Publishers Année de publication : 2023 Collection : Computer Science Importance : 1 fichier PDF Présentation : ill. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 979-88911-30579-- Note générale : Mode d'accès : accès au texte intégral par : - authentification après inscription à la plateforme EBSCOhost ou - adresse IP de l'École. Index Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Virtual computer systems Index. décimale : 004.03 Types de systemes et caractéristiques Résumé : Digital Twin is a virtual representation of any physical system and process. It turns out that for any complex and competent IoT device at the ground, there is a corresponding digital/virtual/software device replica. Such a logical representation brings forth a number of business and technical advantages including the fulfilling the Industry 4.0 vision. With the exponential growth of IoT devices in our professional, social and personal environments, there is a need for ensuring high performance for, remote management, policy-based governance and utmost security of IoT devices. Further on, IoT data analytics is being made mandatory for timely extraction of actionable insights, which bolster IoT devices to be adaptive in their operations, outputs and offerings. Thus, the continuous explosion of connected devices, the wider adoption of software-defined cloud infrastructures, the maturity of artificial intelligence (AI) toolkits, the realization of data lakes in cloud environments, the unveiling of big, fast and streaming data analytics platforms, etc., together clearly tell that the concept of digital twins is all set to flourish across industry verticals. Digital twins getting hosted in enterprise and cloud servers continuously take operational inputs from various sensors attached with the physical system. Such an empowerment comes handy for visualizing and realizing a host of sophisticated and cognitive IoT devices and applications. Digital Twin technology is referred to as game changing. The concept represents the convergence of the physical and the virtual worlds where each industrial process, asset, service or product gets a digital replica and dynamic digital blueprint and representation, from the design phase to the deployment phase. It helps track a physical entity's current configuration, state, location, operational characteristics and other attributes. It is very cost effective, accessible via IoTs, and helps in lowering costs, reducing process time and improving product quality by providing data management, data tracking and other benefits. They allow for safe and cost-effective testing and development. In the future, digital twins shall constitute the fundamental pillars of intelligent IoT ecosystems as well as Industry 4.0 for training, monitoring, maintenance, troubleshooting, optimization and other tasks vital to keeping physical entities in healthy working conditions. Digital Twins are gaining momentum as they offer real-time transparency in product development life cycles to help manufacture higher quality products and improve customer satisfaction. They are being applied in many domains including manufacturing, vehicular technology, smart city, and the Built Environment. The book is aimed to present the overall concept of the digital twin technology, challenges in its adoptability, and various industry use cases. The book will give the in-depth awareness of digital twin architecture and frameworks. The book will address research-related challenges and solution approaches related to the Digital Twin concepts.

Public ISBD Titre : Nonlinear systems : chaos, advanced control and application perspectives Type de document : document électronique Auteurs : Piyush-Pratap Singh, Auteur ; Piyush-Pratap Singh Editeur : New York : Nova Science Publishers Année de publication : 2022 Collection : Technology in a Globalizing World Importance : 1 fichier PDF Présentation : ill. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 979-88869-70012-- Note générale : Mode d'accès : accès au texte intégral par : - authentification après inscription à la plateforme EBSCOhost ou - adresse IP de l'École. Bibliogr. p. 130-132 .- Index Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Nonlinear control theory Index. décimale : 681.511.4 Systèmes de commande non linéaires Résumé : The book covers different subjects in the field of nonlinear dynamics, especially applications and investigation of chaos and chaotic systems in electrical engineering, information technology, communication engineering and mechanical engineering. This book is suitable as a textbook at the graduate or advanced undergraduate level and will appeal to postgraduate-level students and young researchers in different fields. This book provides technological advancement in nonlinear dynamics and chaos and explores the fields of communication, electric vehicles, power systems and rotational machines with centrifugal flyball governor system. An autonomous chaotic system is explored with real and complex state variables; their projective synchronisation is reported with application to secure communication. Secure communication is achieved using Masking-Modulation and Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange encryption techniques. Further, electric vehicles are the necessity of upcoming trends. To optimize the control performance of the permanent-magnet synchronous motor with different disturbances and uncertainties, a nonlinear control for the permanent-magnet synchronous motor using sliding-mode control is reported and Cascaded PI sliding mode control technique is explored to control the chaotic behaviour in electric vehicles. Chaos behaviour is explored in power systems and its control is presented using higher order sliding mode control. Comparative performances are analysed followed by control of chaos in the Rotational Machine with Centrifugal Flyball Governor system where chaos is controlled using recursive backstepping sliding mode control. All the simulations are carried out in the MATLAB environment and reveal successful achievement of the objectives. Researchers from academia and industry, who are working in the research areas Nonlinear Dynamical Systems & Chaos, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science Engineering, Information Technology, Communication Engineering and Mechanical Engineering may be principal audiences. Also, the book will be helpful for (i) graduate or advanced undergraduate level students as a textbook or major reference book for courses such as electrical circuits, nonlinear dynamical systems, mathematical modelling, computational science, numerical simulation, and many others and (ii) postgraduate level students and young researchers in the following fields: Communication Engineering; Computer Science; Electrical and Electronic Engineering; Mechanical Engineering; Engineering Mathematics; Computational Physics.

Gill, Éditeur scientifique Editeur : New York : Nova Science Publishers Année de publication : 2014 Collection : Energy science, engineering and technology Importance : 1 fichier PDF (9.7 Mo) ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-63117-844-3 Note générale : Mode d'accès : accès au texte intégral par : - authentification après inscription à la plateforme EBSCOhost ou - adresse IP de l'École.

Collecteurs solaires (systèmes de miroirs, fours solaires). Piles solaires photovoltaïque. Résumé : Increasing demands on energy has necessitated the development of large-scale, low-cost, renewable energy. Solar energy is highly attractive and extremely promising as the energy reaching the earth from the sun is orders of magnitude larger than today's global energy consumption and is quiet, requires low maintenance, has no restrictions on size, can be located close to the point on consumption, and is a clean, direct and efficient mode of energy conversion. The challenge lies in making solar power economically competitive while working with the materials readily available in abundance along with all their inherent constraints, also using those materials as economically as possible. Novel materials and structures are constantly being investigated for possible application in the area of photovoltaics (PVs). This book begins by discussing nanostructure-based PVs. It then continues to provide information on several topics that include the environmental impacts from end-of-life disposal of PVs; photocured polymer electrolyte membranes for dye-sensitized solar cells; economic analysis of support policies in PV systems; indoor PVs; effect of urban density on PV performance; and PV effects in nanoscale ferroelectrics.

Modeling of photovoltaic generator as a random variable 6. The empirical analysis of promotion schemes for solar PV: towards a comprehensive framework on interactions between assessment criteria 7.
