From fabric design to the dress manufacturing considering the fabric’s
suitability with the end use
Authors: RODICA Harpa , EMILIA VISILEANU
Published: August 2019

This study covers an investigation on two wool-type fabrics selected as suitable for cold season dresses. From the
beginning, it was expected that the two fabrics will bear out diverse features in dresses due to the different patterns and
structures, yet suitable for the end use. The fabrics were tested following the standards for the properties linked to the
actual wearing of dresses, some of the features being related also to the general appearance expected by any clothing
customer, regardless of the purchasing way (retailing or e-commerce). This opinion was pointed out by a survey of
women’s preferences about buying clothing items. Next, it was achieved the 3D clothing simulation to visualize the cold
season dress, by combining the sketch, the fabric (with raw material, pattern, colours, and overall features expected for
wearing) and finally, the wearer’s body. This approach allowed stepping forward from the experimental results reached
for fabrics’ overall quality after the laboratory testing to the dress simulation, to give customers virtual perceptions on the
fabrics’ suitability for particular outfits. Therefore, within the textile value chain, the weaving companies should upgrade
the design process by including the benefits of the 3D clothing simulation. This strategy would move towards the
reaching of the consumer’s perspective on the fabrics suitability for manufacturing items of clothing as successful
products on the market.

Published: August 2019

Abstract
Introduction: Depression has become an epidemic worldwide, with numbers of diagnosis rising each year alongside numbers of those on antidepressant medication. Exercise therapy has been long studied and tested to prove its’ efficacy in the treatment of depression, but there are no known studies to indicate how frequently it is used in practice or in what capacity it is used. Methods: A qualitative mailed interview questionnaire was completed by 21 mental health professionals to answer questions pertaining to their knowledge of exercise therapy as a treatment method. It also assessed the value they placed on exercise, personal application of exercise and exercise therapy, and their willingness to receiving training or additional education. Results: Many participants were applying exercise therapy in treatment of individuals with depression; however very few were truly prescriptive with their treatment plans. All participants of the study found value in exercise therapy. Many felt that in order to feel confident to use the method; they would need additional information and education about how to individualize and apply it. Conclusions: Despite its’ perceived and well researched value, very few mental health professionals are able to use exercise therapy in a structured or formalized way to achieve the best results. Trainings need to be created to aide in knowledge, growth and individualization of exercise therapy as well as community development. More research needs to be done to better understand what dose is most appropriate for the treatment of depression.

In power grid system power quality improvement plays an important role. Dual Voltage Source Inverter (DVSI) scheme is proposed to improve the aspects of Power and consistency of the micro grid system. Here we use Distributed Energy Resources (DER) for power exchange and unbalanced load compensation and nonlinear load in the system. Load sharing and power injections are done by grid interactive inverters in micro-grid. Based on Instantaneous Symmetrical Component Theory (ISCT), control algorithm is developed. For extraction of positive sequence voltage, dq0 transformation is done. An inverter connected to a 3- phase four- wire distribution combination is employed to test the managing strategy of the system. In this work we mainly focused on the assessment of overall performance of Proportional Integral (PI) controller and Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC). Thus, the FLC provides increase in reliability, better performance of micro grid, less bandwidth requirements of inverters when compared to PI controller. The proposed system is validated by MATLAB simulation methods using PI controller and Fuzzy Logic Controller.

Retinal vasculature extraction is an area of utmost interest in ophthalmology. It helps to diagnose various diseases and also play a crucial role in treatment planning and accomplishment.In this work, we suggest an algorithm to segment retinal vasculature from retinal Fundus Images(FI) using multi-structure element morphology after enhancing the image using Normal Inverse Gaussian (NIG) model in the fuzzified Non-Subsampled Contourlet Transform (NSCT) domain. Since both noises and weak edges produce low magnitude NSCT coefficients, image enhancement methods amplify weak edges as well as noises. Direct application of image boosting technique in the NSCT domain causes over enhancement. So a novel image enhancement method is employed by interpreting the term “contrast” as a qualitative instead of a quantitative measure of the image. Membership values of NSCT coefficients are modified using NIG model. Mathematical Morphology(MM) by Multi-structure Elements (MEs) is used to extract the edges of image. False vessel ridges are expunged, and the thin vessel edges are preserved using opening by reconstruction. Connected component analysis followed by length filtering is used to filter the still remaining false edges. In most of the available literature, low-resolution fundus image databases are used for evaluating the algorithm. In our work, we evaluate our algorithm not only utilizing the DRIVE database, a low-resolution retinal image (RI) database, but also using an openly available High-Resolution Fundus (HRF) image database. Our result illustrates that the proposed method outperforms the other techniques considered with average accuracy (ACC) of 96.71%. In addition to ACC, we also use F1-Score and Mathews Correlation Coefficient (MCC) to evaluate our method. The average values of the results obtained with the HRF image database for F1-Score and MCC are 0.8172 and 0.8031, respectively, which are very much encouraging.

Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a main source of vision misfortune in diabetic patients. DR is a predominantly caused because of the harm caused in retinal veins of a diabetic patients. It is fundamental to recognize and fragment their tinal veins for DR identification and determination, which avoids prior vision misfortune in diabetic patients. The PC helped programmed discovery and division of veins through the end of optic location district in Retina. Optic Disc (OD) discovery is a principle step while creating computerized screening framework for diabetic retinopathy. This is a technique to naturally recognize the situation of the OD in advanced retinal fundus pictures. The strategy begins by normalizing glow and difference all through the picture utilizing brightening evening out and versatile histogram balance techniques individually. The OD recognition calculation depends on coordinating the normal directional example of the retinal veins. Henceforth, a straightforward coordinated channel is proposed to generally coordinate the headings of the vessels at the OD region. The retinal vessels are portioned utilizing a basic and standard 2-D Gaussian coordinated channel.

In recent years, power quality (PQ) has become an important issue for utilities and users. In order to improve PQ, a method for detecting and classifying power quality disturbances (PQDs) is proposed. Hence in addition to identifying the disturbance signals, the proposed method is able to determine its type when occurring. This approach is based on Multilayer perceptron and Levenberg-Marquardt training rule. It is inspired by the desire to take advantage of the parallelism inherent to neural networks in view of hardware implementation using reconfigurable chips. The inputs of these networks are the samples obtained on the power grid in various conditions. The proposed method is tested for sags and swells. To classify the disturbances, the neural architectures have been generalized and configured according to the number and type of disturbances to be treated. To validate and test the proposal, a grid model was built with a three-phase fault generator under Matlab / Simulink R2017a. After comparing the results with those obtained by certain methods in the literature, the proposal proves to be an efficient and reliable tool for monitoring PQ. In fact it has the smallest mean square error and a highperformance with precision of 96%.

Published: August 2019

The conventional automobiles are the major source for the air pollution in the world. By the deficit of the fuels and the environmental point of view, many researches focused on the electric vehicle. Electricity can be stored in economically with the help of batteries. In order to meet the demand of the vehicles, the batteries are connected in series. These series connected batteries supply higher voltage and consequently reduces losses. The battery string with imbalance voltage condition causes the potential damage to the battery and its life diminishes. Hence, the battery charging system is required to improve the life of batteries and it is necessary for equal charging and discharging of the batteries. Buck boost based charge equalizer topology is proposed to reduce voltage imbalance in the battery string. The control algorithm for that equalizer is formulated and it has been verified with the developed prototype model. Both the simulation and hardware results obtained are discussed in detail.

The principal resolution of the image fusion is to merging indication from different images; CT (Computed Tomography) scan and an MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and to obtain more informative image. In this paper various transform based fusion methods like; discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and two specialisms of discrete cosine transform (DCT); DCT variance and DCT variance with consistency verification (DCT variance with CV) and stationary wavelet transform (SWT) image fusion procedures are instigated and associated in terms of image evidence. Fused outcomes attained from these fusion techniques are evaluated through distinctive evaluation metrics. A fused result accomplished from DCT variance with CV followed by DCT variance out performs DWT and SWT based image fusion methodologies. The potentiality of DCT features creates value-added evidence in the output fused image trailed by fused results proficient from DWT and SWT based image fusion methods. The discrete cosine transforms (DCT) stranded methods of image fusion are auxiliary accurate and concert leaning in real time solicitations by energy forte of DCT originated ideologies of stationary images. In this effort, a glowing systematic practice for fusion of multi-focus images based on DCT and its flavors are obtainable and demonstrated that DCT grounded fused outcomes exceed other fusion methodologies.

The number of police in the Philippines is way below than the declared number of police per population based on the Philippines Republic Act No. 6975, Chapter 3, Section 27 which states that one (1) policeman per five hundred (500) persons. Santa Maria Bulacan only have fifty-two (52) police personnel, and one (1) police outpost which is located in the town of Poblacion which is in the far south east of the whole municipality. This produces different speed when responding to incident reports. The police force’s response time vary based from the location of the incident. This research determined the optimum location to where police will be deployed as a mobile unit to be able to respond faster to more areas than staying in the outpost. Another thing that will be determined by this research is the optimum coordinates of a perfect scenario where each town in the municipality of Santa Maria Bulacan would have their own police outpost. The coordinates will be calculated based on the populations’ location by plotting all the houses and structures located in Santa Maria Bulacan based on Google Map Images, and the Optimum locations will be determined in the form of the converged centroids after applying enhanced K means clustering algorithm.

Aspect-oriented software development (AOSD) seeks to renovate the software quality by use of alteration to the design in object-oriented based systems. Each system component has been divided into numbers of modules and arranges a design in a way that the module has not crosscut to each other. A module is a collection of block of codes, whose role is to restrict and conceal the design definition. This type of behavior is known as the Separation of Concerns (SoC). AOP helps programmers for separating crosscutting concerns. It can be helpful at better modularizing system, the problem with complex system is that the component require different, crosscutting descriptions at different levels and need maintenance too. In this paper, a study was conducted to analyses quality in aspect-oriented software design. This paper also explores varieties of existing metrics related to AOP also and will discuss in detail with comparison of OOPs using small scale projects that how the new programming paradigm design effects on quality of the software.

This paper presents the analytical design method for surface mounted BLDC motor to meet the performance requirements of submersible Pump for agriculture application. The design calculations involved assumption of various design variables viz. Stacking factor, leakage factor, Flux densities in stator and rotor yokes and flux density in the stator teeth etc. With these assumptions the geometry of the intended motor is derived. The geometrical information like the rotor diameter, rotor and stator thickness and stator teeth thickness etc. obtained from the analytical calculations are used as input to Finite Element Model (FEM) Analysis tool FEMAG. The Torque-Speed characteristics, back EMF, flux densities in various parts of the motor are obtained from FEM Analysis and the same are compared with the results obtained from Analytical design. Various designed parameters like airgap length, stack length and magnet widths are varied and their influence on the characteristics of the intended BLDC motor is obtained through FEM Analysis. Based on the analytical models and FEM Analysis the design parameters are tweaked until the desired performance for the agriculture pump is accomplished.

The crude oil based fuel price is constantly increasing in India, So it is compulsory to utilize the fuel properly by the user. As most of the driver tends to press the gas pedal unnecessarily, the fuel used at that particular condition is excess than the requirement. This experiment focuses on improving the fuel economy by warning the driver to drive their vehicles in optimum Specific Fuel Consumption (SFC) range using electronic SFC Speed Range Indicator. In variable speed Internal Combustion Engines there will be an optimum SFC range for a particular load and Engine Speed. Our system will monitor the Engine speed and load continuously and also compare the values with best SFC speed range graph and depends on these values the three Light Emitting Diode (LED) on Specific Fuel Consumption Speed Range Indicator(SFCSRI) will glow accordingly to mention the driver about the optimum, low or high speed. This helps the driver to drive their vehicles on optimum SFC range.

In this paper a survey of autonomous wheelchair has been proposed for physically handicapped people, which serves their crucial role for maneuvering by simply moving their neck. To fulfill this objective, this paper involves Arduino board programmed for processing & controlling the wheelchair. Micro switches are used here to sense the neck movements from the disabled person and which further send this to Arduino for taking necessary action to move the wheelchair accordingly. GPS module is integrated with the Arduino to locate the physically disabled person in case of emergencies. In addition to this, GSM module is been used for sending crucial information regarding the physically disabled person’s health issues if any, like body temperature, to further send this to his/her contact person/assigned care-taker. In some special case of physically challenged person who is not able to move any of his/her body part except fingers, this paper gives the better perspective to make a movement of the wheelchair by simply controlling it by virtue of an android app installed on the wheelchair. An android app is developed to serve as inputs for processing and controlling the DC motors for the desired maneuverings.

In modern industrial era demand for electricity is increasing, as a result there is a rapid increase in demand for power generation and transmission. Various researches are going on in order to deliver the efficient energy systems. One such effective method for optimizing the efficiency of inductive devices such as transformer and inductors in cost efficient way has been discussed in this paper. Inductive circuits are used in all electronic devices; the values of impedance of this circuit determine the total efficiency of an instrument or a device. The significant loss in the transformer is the leakage of magnetic flux and Eddy current. By introducing a filler material, which is abundantly available in the earth’s crust; these losses can be minimized. An amorphous filler material which has high permeability and lower electrical conductivity is introduced in the air gap of soft-core iron transformer which significantly reduces the magnetic flux leakage through the lateral sides of the transformer, in turn, enhances the magnetic coupling between the primary coil and the secondary coil of the transformer. Thus, the varying magnetic field around the coil is utilized to the possible extent, as a result the efficiency of a device is optimized. A prototype of a step-down transformer using this filler material has been designed in which the efficiency is increased by 8.306% when compared to the traditional transformers used today. The main contribution of this research is the introduction of a technique for optimizing the magnetic coupling between the primary and secondary coils, which imparts greater efficiency to the transformer and minimizes the overall transformer materials and production cost.

Now-a-days digital documents are playing a major role in all the areas /web, as such all the information is digitalised. Queries are used by the search engines to retrieve the information. Query plays a major role in information retrieval system, as a result relevant and non relevant documents are retrieved. Query expansion techniques will better the performance of the information retrieval system. Our proposed query expansion technique is Word Sense Disambiguation. This is to find the correct sense of the ambiguous word in regional Telugu language. In Query expansion, if the added query term is an ambiguous word, accuracy of relevant documents will be very less. So to avoid this, proposed method Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) is used, which is related to NLP Natural Language Processing and Artificial Intelligence AI. WSD improves the accuracy of information retrieval system.
