Optimal Intrinsic Mode Function Based Detection of Motor Bearing Damages
Authors: Lee Chun-Yao , Huang Kuan-Yu , Hsieh Yu-Hua , Chen Po-Hung
Published: June 2019

This paper proposes a model which uses the greedy algorithm to select the optimal intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) of the empirical mode decomposition (EMD), namely the greedy empirical mode decomposition (GEMD) model. The optimal IMFs can more sufficiently represent the characteristics of damage bearings since the proposed GEMD model effectively selects some IMFs not affected by noise. To validate the superiority of the proposed GEMD model, various damage types of motor bearings were shaped by electrical discharge machining (EDM) in this experiment. The measured motor current signals of various types were decomposed to IMFs by using EMD. Then the optimal IMFs can be obtained by using the proposed GEMD model. The results show that the Hilbert–Huang transform (HHT) spectrums when using the optimal IMFs become easier in the detection system than when using all IMFs. Simultaneously, the detection accuracy of motor bearing damages is increased by using the features extracted from the lower complexity HHT spectrum. The average detection accuracy can be also improved from 69.5% to 74.6% by using the features extracted from the GEMD-HHT spectrum even in a noise interference 10dB

Authors: Kumar Yogesh , Kumar Manoj , Kumar Sachin , Kumar Rajeev
Published: June 2019

In the present investigation, the plane-wave Born approximation was employed to calculate the total ionization cross sections by electron impact of methanol, ethanol and 1-propanol from the threshold of ionization to 10 MeV. This method requires continuum generalized oscillator strengths (CGOSs). The two different semi-phenomenological expressions of CGOS, given by Mayol and Salvat and Weizsacker and Williams, along with approximated form of the continuum optical oscillator strength (COOS) by Khare et al. were used. Furthermore, the average of the above two CGOSs was also used. The calculated ionization cross sections were compared to the available previous theoretical results and experimental data. Out of three CGOSs, the present results with the average CGOS were found in good agreement with the available experimental results for all the considered molecules. Collision parameters CRP were also calculated from 0.1 to 100 MeV and the calculations were found to be in excellent agreement with the experimental results of Reike and Prepejchal.

Authors: Chowdhury Diptarup , Raguram Ahalya , Mehrotra Seema
Published: June 2019

The need to broaden attention from a narrow focus on mental illness and pathology to investing in understanding and enhancing positive mental health is well recognized. The bulk of research on positive mental health tends to be largely based onwestern developed nationconceptualizations. This highlights the need to examine the construct of positive mental health in diverse socio-cultural contexts. Present study aimed at exploring indicators and dimensions of positive mental health in Indian adults. A two-step Delphi technique, involving a vignette-based tool was used for facilitating a contextualised understanding of indicators of positive mental health. The sample consisted of a panel of 35 experts from different regions of India, majority of whom had >10 years of professional experience. Using a bottom-up approach, content analysis of the emergent data in terms of responses of experts to 10 vignettes resulted in identification and operationalisation of 33 indicators which could be grouped under 13 dimensions. Comparisons with popular well-being frameworks indicated that eight of these could be considered newer dimensions. Though the remaining dimensions significantly overlapped with existing dimensions of well-being in the western literature; finer differences in their meanings and constituents were observed. Finding have implications for further research.

Maximum Power Point Tracking for Photovoltaic System by Using Fuzzy Neural Network
Authors: Hameed Waleed I. , Saleh Ameer L. , Sawadi Baha A. , Al-Yasir Yasir I. A. , Abd-Alhameed Raed A.
Published: June 2019

The electrical energy from the sun can be extracted using solar photovoltaic (PV) modules. This energy can be maximized if the connected load resistance matches that of the PV panel. In search of the optimum matching between the PV and the load resistance, the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique offers considerable potential. This paper aims to show how the modelling process of an efficient PV system with a DC load can be achieved using a fuzzy neural network (FNN) controller. This is applied via an innovative methodology, which senses the irradiance and temperature of the PV panel and produces an optimal value of duty ration for the boost converter to obtain the MPPT. The coefficients of this controller have been refined based upon previous data sets using the irradiance and temperature. A gradient descent algorithm is employed to improve the parameters of the FNN controller to achieve an optimal response. The validity of the PV system using the MPPT technique based on the FNN controller is further demonstrated via a series of experimental tests at different ambient conditions. The simulation results show how the MPPT technique based on the FNN controller is more effective in maintaining the optimal power values compared with conventional techniques.
Patterns of Variation and Chemosystematic Significance of Phenolic Compounds in the Genus Cyclopia (Fabaceae, Podalyrieae)
Authors: Stander Maria. A. , Redelinghuys Herman , Masike Keabetswe , Long Helen , Van Wyk Ben-Erik
Published: June 2019

As a contribution towards a better understanding of phenolic variation in the genus Cyclopia (honeybush tea), a collection of 82 samples from 15 of the 23 known species was analysed using liquid-chromatography–high resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-HRMS) in electrospray ionization (ESI) negative mode. Mangiferin and isomangiferin were found to be the main compounds detected in most samples, with the exception of C. bowiena and C. buxifolia where none of these compounds were detected. These xanthones were found to be absent from the seeds and also illustrated consistent differences between species and provenances. Results for contemporary samples agreed closely with those based on analysis of a collection of ca. 30-year-old samples. The use of multivariate tools allowed for graphical visualizations of the patterns of variation as well as the levels of the main phenolic compounds. Exclusion of mangiferin and citric acid from the data was found to give better visual separation between species. The use of UPLC-HRMS generated a large dataset that allowed for comparisons between species, provenances and plant parts (leaves, pods, flowers and seeds). Phenetic analyses resulted in groupings of samples that were partly congruent with species but not with morphological groupings within the genus. Although different provenances of the same species were sometimes found to be very variable, Principle Component Analysis (PCA) indicated that a combination of compounds have some (albeit limited) potential as diagnostic characters at species level. 74 Phenolic compounds are presented, many of which were identified for the first time in Cyclopia species, with nine of these being responsible for the separation between samples in the PCAs.

Published: June 2019

This study was to present the effect of different parameters of combined methods of drying such as vacuum-microwave (VMD: 480, 120 W), hot air (CDD: 70, 60, 50 °C) and combined methods as pre-drying by CD and finish drying by VMD (CD-VMD: 60 °C + 480/120W) in order to avoid a rapid increase in temperature at the critical moisture content of ca. 1 kg/kg dm (dry mass). Control samples were prepared by freeze-drying (FD). Drying kinetics, including the temperature profile of dried material, as well as on some quality factors of the finished product as phenolic compounds, antioxidant capacity, and color were evaluated. The increase in air temperature during CD as well as the increase in material temperature during VMD deteriorated dried product quality in terms of the content of phenolic compounds, antioxidant activity and color. Dried jujube fruits have a long shelf life and therefore may be a fine alternative to fresh fruit all year round.
Application of Transcriptomics to Enhance Early Diagnostics of Mycobacterial Infections, with an Emphasis on Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratuberculosis
Authors: van den Esker Marielle H. , Koets Ad P.
Published: June 2019

Mycobacteria cause a wide variety of disease in human and animals. Species that infect ruminants include M. bovis and M. avium ssp. paratuberculosis (MAP). MAP is the causative agent of Johne’s disease in ruminants, which is a chronic granulomatous enteric infection that leads to severe economic losses worldwide. Characteristic of MAP infection is the long, latent phase in which intermittent shedding can take place, while diagnostic tests are unable to reliably detect an infection in this stage. This leads to unnoticed dissemination within herds and the presence of many undetected, silent carriers, which makes the eradication of Johne’s disease difficult. To improve the control of MAP infection, research is aimed at improving early diagnosis. Transcriptomic approaches can be applied to characterize host-pathogen interactions during infection, and to develop novel biomarkers using transcriptional profiles. Studies have focused on the identification of specific RNAs that are expressed in different infection stages, which will assist in the development and clinical implementation of early diagnostic tests.

Aloformação Andradina: expressão do Antropoceno no Planalto Ocidental Paulista
Authors: Oliveira Antonio Manoel dos Santos , Queiroz Neto José Pereira de
Published: June 2019

O quadro geológico do Planalto Ocidental Paulista (220.000 km2) no estado de São Paulo é marcado pela ocorrência de depósitos sedimentares que assoreiam os fundos de vale de primeira e segunda ordem, resultantes de uma excessiva produção de sedimentos, com abrangência regional, num curto intervalo de poucas dezenas de anos. Estes sedimentos têm como origem a manifestação de intensos processos erosivos consequentes à devastação das florestas primitivas, realizada pelo processo de colonização de origem europeia no século XX. Os depósitos podem ser reconhecidos no campo pela alternância nos sedimentos de camadas mais argilosas e mais arenosas, contendo artefatos que constituem indicadores inequívocos de sua origem antrópica. Podem ser detectados em imagens de satélite e em fotografias aéreas que permitem, de uma parte, verificar a extensão de suas ocorrências nos fundos dos vales e, de outra parte, a sua dinâmica ao longo do tempo. Assim, constata-se que ocorrem em toda a rede de drenagem do Planalto Ocidental Paulista, apesar de individualmente ocuparem extensões relativamente reduzidas em cada berço de drenagem. Por apresentarem expressão regional de ocorrência, características persistentes e por representarem um epiciclo geotecnogênico de grande importância, é cientificamente relevante que estes depósitos, que marcam a colonização do Planalto Ocidental Paulista, sejam reconhecidos como uma nova formação: a aloformação Andradina, cujos critérios de definição seguiram o Léxico Estratigráfico do Brasil. A denominação Andradina, além de representar a localidade que teve o primeiro depósito a ser estudado (em 1994), constitui um dos principais locais de referência das pesquisas pioneiras realizadas por Pierre Monbeig, nos anos de 1940, e onde é possível reconhecê-la como um estratótipo, que não é resultante de um evento fortuito ou localizado, mas representa um quadro geológico configurado no Antropoceno, como vem sendo definida a nova época do Quaternário pela Comissão Estratigráfica da IUGS, marcada pela ação da humanidade como agente geológico.

Published: June 2019

Este artigo reúne resultados de pesquisas nas quais a abordagem da Antropogeomorfologia, a Geomorfologia do Antropoceno, foi aplicada, testada e desenvolvida, buscando identificar e dimensionar mudanças geomorfológicas ocorridas no processo centenário de urbanização da região metropolitana de São Paulo. Foram especialmente considerados intervalos históricos de aproximadamente um século ou menos, sistemas fluviais e flúvio-lacustres e geoindicadores, obtidos por estudos de caso, com diferentes recortes geográficos e escalas espaço-temporais. Por meio da metodologia utilizada comprovou-se a possibilidade de identificação de mudanças quanto à sua origem, se antrópica ou não, ou de origem complexa, assim como a possibilidade de mensuração de sua magnitude. A maior parte das mudanças observadas, sejam morfológicas, sedimentares, erosivas ou de balanços e taxas de processos, foram consideradas de alta magnitude para intervalos decadais ou centenários. Em sistemas preservados, mudanças deste tipo tendem a ocorrer em milhares ou centenas de milhares de anos. A magnitude das mudanças geomorfológicas observadas ajuda a caracterizar a necessidade de ampliação e de consideração dos estudos de Ciências da Terra nas atuais discussões sobre o Antropoceno, bem como na direção de uma participação efetiva dessa área do conhecimento no ordenamento do território e na busca de parâmetros para ampliação da resiliência dos sistemas físicos da superfície terrestre.

Published: June 2019

Plant diseases caused by phytoplasmas have increasing importance in all over the world for fruit growers. Lately, phytoplasma diseases occur on many fruit varieties and responsible for serious losses both in quality and quantity of fruit production. In the long-run these diseases cause destruction of fruit trees. The apricot phytoplasma disease (Ca. Phytoplasma prunorum) was first reported in Europe in 1924 from France. In 1992 the disease has also been identified in Hungary. On the base of growers' signals serious damages of "Candidatus Phytoplasma prunorum" Seemüller and Schneider, 2004 (formerly: European stone fruit yellows phytoplasma) could be observed in different stone fruit plantations in the famous apricot-growing area nearby Gönc town, Northern-Hungary. Field examinations have been begun in 2009 in several stone fruit plantations in Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén County mainly in Gönc region which is one of the most important apricot growing regions in Hungary, named “Gönc Apricot Growing Area”. Our goals were to diagnose the occurrence of Ca. Phytoplasma prunorum on stone fruits (especially on apricot) in the North-Hungarian growing areas by visual diagnostics and confirm data by laboratory PCR-based examinations. All the 28 collected samples were tested in laboratory trials and at 13 samples from apricot, peach, sour cherry and wild plum were confirmed the presence of phytoplasma (ESFY). On the base of observations it seems evident that the notable losses caused by "Ca. Phytoplasma prunorum" is a new plant health problem to manage for fruit growers, especially apricot producers in Hungary.
Distribution and relative abundance of the economically important click beetles (Elateridae: Agriotes sp.) in Hungary
Authors: Nagy Antal , Dávid István , Szarukán István
Published: June 2019

Click beetle (Elateridae: Agriotes sp.) species of 24 sites in different regions of Hungary were studied in 2010. A. brevis, A. sputator, A. obscurus, A. lineatus, A. rufipalpis and A. ustulatus were sampled by pheromone traps in maize fields. During the study more than 80000 beetles were caught. The three most common species were A. ustulatus, A. sputator and A. rufipalpis. The distribution of the studied species was uneven. In south Hungary A. ustulatus, A, rufipalpis and A. sputator were the three most abundant species. In the Transdanubia A. sputator was the most abundant. A. ustulatus reached higher abundance in only three sites (3/12). A. obscurus occurred only in west Hungary (Transdanubia). In eastern Hungary the abundance of studied species was higher. In this reason we have to monitor the populations of these pests and if it is necessary we have to take actions against them. In Transdanubia the abundance were generally lower but in many cases reached the threshold of significant damage. Beyond that 13 additional species were sampled so the total number of sampled species was 19.
Monitoring raspberry cane midge (Resseliella theobaldi) on the basis of temperature data
Authors: Sipos Kitti , Pénzes Béla
Published: June 2019

The ’midge blight’, in which the raspberry cane midge (Resseliella theobaldi) has an important role, is the greatest problem in the raspberry protection. The basis of the chemical protection against raspberry cane midge is the prediction of adult midge emergence. Before the application of sex pheromone traps developed for the investigation of flight pattern, the usage of the accumulated temperature was attempted for the prediction of egg laying, but these temperatures are different in each country. The aim of this paper is to give information on the time of raspberry cane midge emergence and flight pattern by using sex pheromone traps and accumulated temperature calculation.
The occurrence and phenology of moth pests in different granary of Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén County
Authors: Görcsös Gábor , Bozsik András
Published: June 2019

The aims of my studies were the followings: primarily to find correlation between the conditions of granary and the occurrence of moth pests. Secondly I studied the effect of disinfection on individual numbers in the population of moths. My studies were started in May 2009 in six different places of Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén County. Indianmeal moth (Plodia interpunctella) and Mediterranean Flour Moth (Ephestia kuehniella) traps with pheromone were installed in four repetitions as well as Angoumois Grain Moth (Sitotroga cerealella) traps in also four repetitions. Control traps without attractant were also placed at every place.From my researches, it became clear that the disinfection alone is not enough to protect cereals from moths. As in the case of crop protection, we need to apply integrated pest management.We have to make differences between preventive protections from moth pests and the elimination of them by chemicals.Up to my opinion, the regular checking and cleaning of the granary are important as well as the prognosis of the possible occurrence of moths. The prognosis is considered important because the studied moths do not feed at the adult stage or only at a low level. However, the caterpillars coming from the eggs placed by females can cause a significant damage in the stored cereals.The studied sex pheromone traps are proved to be useful for the reduction of number of moths since the traps caught lots of them. These traps are relatively cheap because only the temporarily changes of pheromones increase the cost.

Pemanfaatan situs web sebagai sarana pemasaran pariwisata telah diadopsi oleh berbagai Destination Marketing Organization (DMO) di seluruh dunia, namun situs web yang telah diimplementasi harus dievaluasi untuk melihat apakah situs web tersebut efektif untuk menunjang kegiatan promosi pariwisata. Penelitian sebelumnya telah mengembangkan model evaluasi ICTRT (information, communication, transaction, relationship, technical merit) untuk mengevaluasi efektivitas situs web DMO. Namun model evaluasi ICTRT dikembangkan hanya untuk mengevaluasi situs web konvensional yang biasa dilihat pada perangkat komputer desktop, sehingga kurang tepat digunakan untuk mengevaluasi situs web khusus tampilan seluler. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan model ICTRT yang dapat digunakan untuk mengevaluasi situs web DMO yang didesain untuk tampilan perangkat seluler, yang diberi nama model ICTRT for mobile. Model ICTRT for mobile selanjutnya digunakan untuk mengevaluasi efektivitas situs web DMO negara Indonesia pada tampilan perangkat seluler.
