Abstract

The Hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) has become one of the most promising vehicles in the automobile industry due to its energy saving ability and low emission of harmful pollutants. Battery management system, which has acceptable life cycle, remains the major roadblock to large-scale production of Electric vehicles and Hybrid electric vehicles, which consists of high power density batteries. In the last few years the pollution problems and the increase of the cost of fossil energy (oil, gas) have become planetary problems. The car manufacturers started to react to the urban pollution problems in nineties by commercializing the electric vehicle. But the battery weight and cost problems were not solved. The batteries must provide energy and peaks power during the transient states. These conditions are severe for the batteries. To decrease these severe conditions, the super capacitors and batteries associate with a good power management present a promising solution. Simulink, a model is a collection of blocks which, in general, represents a system. This paper emphasis more on the management of the energy provided by super capacitor Packs. Each super capacitors module is made of 108 cells with a maximum voltage of 270V. The multi boost and multi full bridge converter topologies are tested to define the best topology for the embarked power management.. The experimental and simulated results validate the proposed two converter topologies presented in this paper.

Abstract

ecological, economic and social effects worldwide. Globally, forest fires are considered as one of the major drivers of climate change having deleterious impacts on the earth and environment as studies reveal their significance in producing large amounts of trace gases and aerosol particles, which play a pivotal role in tropospheric chemistry and climate.

Abstract

Satellite images provide information on the flood disaster footprints, which is essential for assessing the disaster impact and taking up flood mitigation activities. The Brahmaputra floods that occurred during June-July 2012 devastated a large part of Assam. This article discusses the maximum spatial extent affected due to the flood event, villages marooned and population affected, with the aid of multi-temporal satellite images coupled with the hydrological observations and freely available gridded population data. The study shows that about 4.65 lakh ha area was submerged, 23 of the 27 districts in Assam had more than 5% of the total geographical area submerged, about 3829 villages marooned and 23.08 lakh people were affected. Identification of the spatial extent of areas most vulnerable to flooding, captured from the satellite images acquired during the peak flood period will be helpful for prioritizing appropriate flood control measures in the flood-affected regions.

Abstract

Now a day’s mobile technology plays key role, in various environments identification of objects can be done manually, to improve the efficiency of an identification of objects we are using RFID tags. RFID tags track objects in supply chains, and are working their way into the pockets, belongings and even the bodies of consumers. Tag collision occurs while two or more than two tags deliver their unique identification (UID) to the reader. Since collision, which would significantly affect the efficacy of RFID, has been one of the major study issues for RFID technology, we have developed a solution, bit competed algorithm (BCA), to solve the collision problem occurred in RFID system and consequently improve the efficacy of RFID. This paper briefly presents what are the components in RFID system, Architecture of a RFID system, what are the frequency ranges used in the RFID system and what are the problems occurred in the RFID system. Here we develop a system as a prototype for object identification. By using this technology objects can be tracks more efficiently, it provides more security, it save time and money.
