Authors: Burkun V.
Published: October 2019

The development of the motor transport system is especially important for Ukraine as a transit state. Our country has great potential for transit traffic due to rather extensive network of motor roads and the passage through the country of three European transport corridors.
The purpose of our research is to analyse the current level of development of the national motor transport system of Ukraine.
According to the index of transportation of passengers by road transport in the direction of international communication, Lviv region has taken the first place among the other regions in 2016, Kyiv has taken the second place, Kharkiv region has taken the third place, and Khmelnytsk region has taken the last place.
According to the index of transportation of passengers by road transport in the intercity direction Lviv, Odessa and Kyiv regions are considered the TOP-3 regions. Lugansk region has taken the last place in ranking. We have to emphasize the fact that there are insignificant movements in the direction of intercity communication for the city of Kyiv (24th place in the rating). Thus, in terms of the number of passengers carried by road transport in various directions, the city of Kyiv and the Kyiv oblast occupy the first positions, and Lugansk regionis on the last place.
After having analysed the passenger traffic in Ukraine by type of transport, it can be argued that road transport successfully competes with the railway one. Together these two types of transportation of passengers occupy the leading positions.
Thus, it is proved that one of the most important strategic directions of the development of the national economy is the use of the transit and transport potential of the country and ensuring the efficient functioning of the Ukrainian motor transport system.

This paper presents a novel protection scheme for the protection of transmission system with microgrid (MG) having of wind energy, solar PV energy and fuel cell sources. MGs provide environmental, economical benefits for the end consumers, power usages and society. However, transmission line and MGs poses major technical challenges. Protection system must respond both MG and utility grid failures. Technical challenges of MG protection are to respond to main and MG faults. A MG model is designed and it is connected to a transmission line. Later, for detection and classification of faults wavelet Analysis (WT) is used. Faults are detected by the fault indices and compared with defined threshold value. The location of fault is done by artificial neural networks (ANN) on MG connected transmission system using detailed (D1) coefficients of energy current signals. This proposed algorithm is tested and more effective for the detection, classification and location of faults on MG interconnected transmission system. This algorithm is accurate and independent of fault inception angle (FIA), fault impedance and fault distance on line.

Internet of Things (IoT) refers the system of interrelated heterogeneous uniquely identifiable devices with the ability to collect data and communicate with each other to enable applications/services. The security and privacy are the two major issues as IoT applications are providing personalized services by collecting users' private, sensitive and confidential data. The traditional cryptographic methods are not appropriate for most of the IoT applications due to resource-constraints. The lightweight block ciphers are the most common solution to provide security and privacy in IoT. In this paper, various popular lightweight block cipher algorithms and their performance metrics are discussed in detail. The comparative performance analysis of the block ciphers are investigated through experimental study in terms of various metrics and their results are presented. Based on the study, we made recommendations to choose a suitable cryptographic algorithm for an IoT environment depending upon the desired level of security and privacy requirements. The detailed directions are also given which can be considered as guidelines for designing new security solutions.

Ubiquitous nature of WSN paved way for its usage in different environments. Its applications are growing to many fields in the world. In such networks, there are many issues and challenges to be addressed. For instance, they are energy constrained networks with mobility that need energy efficient mechanisms. Especially MAC is the protocol that needs enhancement for different WSN deployments. In traditional deployments, it is to support multi-user access to same channel while in duty cycled networks it needs to achieve rendezvous to have energy efficient communications. Duty cycled networks are crucial for many applications like wind turbines where cyclical channels are used. Such networks need rendezvous for communication and thus traditional MAC is not suitable there. In this paper, we focused on different MAC protocols in different deployments modes. In other words, duty cycled MAC protocol are studied. It provides useful insights and directions for future work in implementation of new MAC protocols.

In this paper a K-node forked queuing model with load dependent service rates is analysed. Here it is assumed that the customers arrive to the first queue in batches and wait for service. After getting service at first service station with some probability they may join any one of the (K-1) parallel queues which are connected to first queue in series and exit from the system after getting service. It is assumed that the arrival and service completions follow Poisson processes and service rates depend on number of customers in the queue connected to it. The influence of Geometrically distributed bulk arrivals on this queuing model is studied. Sensitivity analysis of the system behaviour with regards to the arrival rates and load dependent service distribution parameters is carried out. The influence of these parameters on system performance measures such as average number of customers, waiting time of customer, variation of number of customers in each queue, throughput of each service station, utilization of each server are derived explicitly when arrivals follow a Geometric distribution. Simulations are carried out to illustrate the result.

With the invention of autonomous vehicles, it make easier to know about the future directions of the vehicles. The main purposes of vehicle detection and tracking are to identify the on-road traffic conditions, hazards or hurts as well as to communicate with other on-road vehicles/objects. To meet the above requirements, the following methodologies are useful which are like Fuzzy based, Radar and V2V fusion, Background subtraction, Active contour, Single learning based method and etc., Those methodologies are implementing either independently or collaboratively may lead to focus towards not only on the vehicles and other objects of our interest. In order to track the vehicles, first to detect the various objects and from them only it is possible to identify the vehicle objects. After the identification of vehicular objects, we can segregate them according to their sub-category. In this paper, various object/vehicle detection techniques have been discussed. The process of segmentation and separation of vehicle objects and its types can be possible by implementing a certain fuzzy rules. Detection of an object using various fusion techniques makes more effective in terms of obtaining the information regarding that particular vehicle directly or via nearby vehicles. While capturing the object, there is a possibility of false detection. This can be avoided by clearly eliminating the shadows, illumination and etc., from capturing object image. This kind of elimination process is termed as background subtraction. Active contour is one another detection method which gives us succession of images from which the internal and external borders of several objects can be identified. By a single extraction various objects are identified and then given to different detectors according to their sub-category. All these kind of techniques are discussed in this paper.

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have earned an upsurging inquisitiveness of the research community over the past decade and for the upcoming era, due to which we can realize its countless applications in various fields including medical, military, environment and academia. Wireless sensor networks composed of thousands or sometimes millions of sensor nodes which are usually operated by batteries that have limited energy, data processing, storage and transmission capacity. Moreover, these sensor nodes are densely deployed in human inaccessible regions and connected through error prone wireless links to offer a long coverage, therefore It is very difficult rather impractical to analyze the behavior of WSNs with real experiments. Most researches in this particular field are carried out by using simulation tools in several educational associations and research hubs. For this reason study of existing experimental tools for analyzing the behavior of WSNs becomes essential. This paper is intended to present a review on experimental tools and techniques available in the literature for WSNs, including simulators, emulators and test beds. These tools are highly useful for analyzing the operational behavior of wireless sensor networks. This paper also provides a roadmap for selecting appropriate experimental tools for various kinds of WSNs and its applications by taking into account their capabilities, relative ease of use and accuracy.

This paper presents, design, build, assemble and commission of an automatic Sorting machine by using Weighing mechanism. The popular measuring technique is weighing scales or weighing machines. Weighing machines are measuring instruments which are used to determine the weight or mass of an object. The electronic weight detection system is classified into two types: the strain/ force gauge load cell and the electromagnetic force system. Strain gauge load cells are the most common in industry. In this system, Weight of the object moving in the conveyor is measured .Then it is sorted based on its weight the measured. The weight of the product is feed to the controller. The standard weight of the product is set to the controller. When the weight is not equal to the preset value, the object is sorted in one side. If it meets the value, it is sorted to the other side. This is the basic mechanism used in the sorting machine by weight.

Present study aims at exploring parallel nutrient removal from secondarily treated wastewater and biogas production potential of Chlorella vulgaris. The observed growth rate (per day) and doubling time (days) of C. vulgaris was 0.36 and 0.44, respectively. C. vulgaris has removed 31 % COD, 40 % PO4-P , 36 % NH4-N and 38 % TKN from secondarily treated wastewater using open raceway pond. The biomass was analyzed for proteins, carbohydrates, Lipids, fibres, TS and VS. The optimum loading rate for maximum biogas yield was found to be 2 g VS/L. Effect of various pre-treatment methods (thermal, chemical, sonication and thermo-chemical) has also been studied. The biomass and biomass extract (before and after pre-treatments) were also analyzed for solubilization of complex compounds. Thermally pre-treated biomass has increased biogas production by 60 % (480 mL/g VS) relative to untreated biomass (350 mL/g VS). This study has successfully demonstrated that microalgal cultivation in wastewater can be easily adopted in currently available wastewater treatment plants without any major modifications of existing available infrastructure.

The hospital is one of the health care institutions supported by medical personnel and non-medical personnel to provide services to the community. The increase in hospitals' number is expected to be in line with the increase in medical and non-medical personnel in hospitals. However, the increase in resources has almost doubled compared to the increase in the number of hospitals in Indonesia. This can indicate that the hospital current conditions are less efficient. To identify the condition of the hospital’s level of efficiency, it can be done using the Stocastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) method. This analysis is based on the production function involving various input and output factors. Various types of inputs and outputs that can be considered for inclusion in the analysis model. The purpose of this study is to identify the effect of risk management factors, governance, information management on the efficiency of inpatients. The results from this study, governance is the most dominant factor in determining the level of efficiency of inpatient services, then followed by risk management factors. Thus, to improve the efficiency of inpatient services the main priority can be directed to better hospital governance. spacing. Author Profile must be in Font Size 8, with single line spacing.

This paper presents an effective methodology for transmission congestion management (TCM) in deregulated power system considering random nature of solar photovoltaic distributed generator (SPVDG). Solar photovoltaic power generation has gained popularity worldwide. Its’ optimal sitting in the grid can provide congestion relief and reduce line losses etc. However, to maximize the potential benefits of this renewable energy source, its’ stochastic power output which mainly depends on solar irradiance needs due consideration. In this paper, seasonal variations of solar irradiance have been modeled using beta probability density function to determine expected power output of SPVDG over various seasons of one year. TCM problem has been formulated as a non-linear programming with the objective of social welfare maximization of electricity market subject to equality and inequality constraints incorporating seasonal load demand variations. The optimal siting of SPVDG integration in the grid has been discussed. The proposed methodology has been simulated by incorporating practical data of a real-life SPVDG in standard IEEE 30-bus, IEEE 118-bus and practical Indian Utility 62-bus systems. Simulation results show the benefits of proposed methodology on market indices. The effectiveness of proposed approach is also discussed in comparison with existing methodology of distributed generation modeling
