In the present research work, effect of several process parameters on the machining characteristics of borosilicate glass has been reported. The machining characteristics that are being investigated are material removal rate (MRR) and tool wear rate (TWR). Four different process parameters were considered for this study power rating of the machine, static load, slurry concentration and abrasive...

Currently the operators of electrical distribution networks face a number of challenges, such as load growth, the proliferation of distributed generation and ageing infrastructure. This is drawing attention to techniques which will allow more efficient asset utilisation and facilitate network dynamic management. Power system component real-time ratings are a cost effective solution for increasi...

This paper is investigating if it is possible to predict source code quality based on static analysis and machine learning. The proposed approach includes a plugin in Eclipse, uses a combination of peer review/human rating, static code analysis, and classification methods. As training data, public data and student hand-ins in programming are used. Based on this training data, new and uninspecte...

Calibration of the optical lever sensitivities of atomic force microscope (AFM) cantilevers is especially important for determining the force in AFM measurements. These sensitivities depend critically on the cantilever mode used and are known to differ for static and dynamic measurements. Here, we calculate the ratio of the dynamic and static sensitivities for several common AFM cantilevers, wh...

The cognitive complexity of a software determines the comprehension effort particular individual faces when designing, developing and maintaining software. level tends to be varied with each human resulting subjective measurement. Expressing as form metric quantifies comprehensibility generic value, which does not imply subjectivity factor. This study elaborates significance expressing rating. ...

A simplified dynamic thermal analysis approach is proposed for the estimation of the peak junction temperature in power IGBT transistors operating in pulse-width modulation (PWM) controlled DC/AC converters. This approach can be used for the rating of electron devices or heatsink systems in power circuit design, as it provides a direct analytical link, in terms of electrical and thermal device ...
