This paper presents a design method of the optimal proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller withɛ-Routh stability for different processes through Lyapunov approach. The optimal PID controller could be acquired by minimizing an augmented integral squared error (AISE) performance index which contains control error and at least first-order error derivative, or even may containnth-order error derivative. The optimal control problem could be transformed into a nonlinear constraint optimization (NLCO) problem via Lyapunov theorems. Therefore, optimal PID controller could be obtained by solving NLCO problem through interior method or other optimization methods. The proposed method can be applied for different processes, and optimal PID controllers under various control weight matrices andɛ-Routh stability are presented for different processes. Control weight matrix andɛ-Routh stability’s effects on system performances are studied, and different tuning methods’ system performances are also discussed.ɛ-Routh stability’s effects on disturbance rejection ability are investigated, and different tuning methods’ disturbances rejection ability is studied. To further illustrate the proposed method, experimental results of coupled water tank system (CWTS) under different set points are presented. Both simulation results and experiment results show the effectiveness and usefulness of the proposed method.

Impact of heavy metals on water, fish (This study was carried out to assess the concentrations of various heavy metals and their distribution in a hyper-eutrophic urban Tumkur tank system, which is being polluted from industrial, domestic and sewage effluents. Samples of water, fish and soil sediment were analyzed for the concentration of seven heavy metals (iron, zinc, copper, nickel, chromium, lead and cadmium) using atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The water-soluble (bioavailable) fractions of heavy metals correlated positively with their total concentration, exhibiting the following sequence of bioavailability: Zn > Cd > Ni > Pb > Cu > Cr > Fe.

This design aims to contrive a plumbing system X Apartment, Jakarta with a separate clean water and drinking water system. Water supply system that applied to this apartment is roof tank system. Fluctuations in the use of clean water are used to determine the capacity of reservoirs and pumps using the equivalent apartments such as The Bellagio Residence Apartment, Four Winds Apartment, Tamansari Sudirman Apartment, and Setiabudi Residence Apartment. Total demand for clean water for the 1st and 2nd tower is 315.8 m3/day and 39 m3/day for drinking water with 216 m3 of ground water tank capacity. Transfer pumps work for 12 hour/day and the capacity of clean water roof tank for the 1st and 2nd tower are 67.5 m3 while for drinking water roof tank are 7.2 m3. System that has been chosen used 2 stand pipes for both clean water, drinking water, and booster pumps in each tower. This design concluded that The investment cost of clean water and drinking water system and also the construction of X Apartment reservoirs is Rp. 2.393.889.860 and the cost of drinking water that can be saved by residents when using drinkable tap water system is Rp. 874.656 per m3.

This article introduces the design of split range control and fuzzy logic control for temperature control of the MISO (multiple input single output) water tank scheme. A multiple input single output (MISO) system is considered for the proposed work as most of the practical systems comprise of numerous MISO system. Investigations are conducted on the impact of control parameters, system dynamics and process disturbances. From the simulation outcomes, it is clearly inferred that the fuzzy logic controller outperformed split range control over all parameters.

AbstractDosimetric changes caused by the positional uncertainty of centring a small electron cutout to the machine central beam axis (CAX) of the linear accelerator (linac) were investigated. First, six circular cutouts with 4 cm diameter were made with their centres shifted off from the machine CAX for 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 mm using the 6 × 6 cm2 applicator. Then, the percentage depth doses (PDDs) at the machine CAX and cutout centre were measured using the 4, 9 and 16 MeV clinical electron beams produced by a Varian 21 EX linac. The cross- and in-line axis beam profiles were measured at depth of maximum dose (dm) and source-to-surface distance equal to 100 cm using a scanning water tank system and diode detector. When the cutout centre was shifted away from machine CAX for the electron beam with low energy of 4 MeV, the dm, depths of the 80 (R80) and 90% (R90) depth dose at the machine CAX had no significant change (<0.1 mm). For higher energies of 9 and 16 MeV beams, the dm were reduced with 0.45 and 1.63 mm per mm off-axis shift between the cutout centre and the machine CAX, respectively. The R80 and R90 were reduced with 0.7 mm per mm off-axis shift for both energies. When there was a 4 mm off-axis shift, the relative output factors for the 4, 9 and 16 MeV beams were reduced with 0.8, 1.6 and 0.5%, respectively. The isodose coverage of the in-line axis beam profile was reduced when the cutout centre was shifted away from machine CAX. It is important for radiation oncologists, dosimetrists, therapists and physicists to note such dosimetric changes in the electron radiotherapy to the patient, because such positional uncertainty is unavoidable in fabricating an electron cutout in the mould room.
