Crystallite size effect on voltage tunable giant dielectric permittivity of nanocrystalline CuO

Abstract: The effect of crystallite size and applied DC bias voltage on dielectric permittivity of CuO was studied using impedance spectroscopy. The measurements were performed at room temperature in a wide frequency range of 1 Hz to 1 MHz under applied DC bias voltages from 0 to 3 V in the periodic increment of 0.2 V. The observed applied DC bias voltage effect on giant dielectric constant (ɛ′ = 104) were analyzed with ‘grain boundary double Schottky potential barrier height model’. The percentage of tunability (T %) at the frequency 100 Hz is found to be 45.5% for the case of nanocrystalline CuO in contrast to 0% tunability in bulk CuO.

Retrieval architecture with classified query for content based image recognition

Abstract: The consumer behavior has been observed to be largely influenced by image data with increasing familiarity of smart phones and World Wide Web. Traditional technique of browsing through product varieties in the Internet with text keywords has been gradually replaced by the easy accessible image data. The importance of image data has portrayed a steady growth in application orientation for business domain with the advent of different image capturing devices and social media. The paper has described a methodology of feature extraction by image binarization technique for enhancing identification and retrieval of information using content based image recognition. The proposed algorithm was tested on two public datasets, namely, Wang dataset and Oliva and Torralba (OT-Scene) dataset with 3688 images on the whole. It has outclassed the state-of-the-art techniques in performance measure and has shown statistical significance.

Influence of Nonlinear Fluid Viscous Dampers on Seismic Response of RC Elevated Storage Tanks

Abstract: The numerical investigation on the seismic response of RC elevated liquid storage tanks installed with viscous dampers is presented. A discrete two-mass model for the liquid and multi-degree of freedom system for staging, installed with the dampers are developed for Reinforced Concrete (RC) elevated liquid storage tanks. The elevated tank is assessed for seismic response reduction when provided with Linear Viscous Damper (LVD) and Nonlinear Viscous Damper (NLVD), installed in the staging. The RC elevated liquid storage tanks are analyzed for two levels of liquid containment in the tank, 100% and 25% of the tank capacity. Three Configurations of placements of dampers viz. dampers at alternate levels (Configuration I and Configuration II) and dampers at all the panels of the staging of the tank (Configuration III) are considered. To study the effect of peak ground acceleration, eight real earthquake time histories with accelerations varying from 0.1 g to 0.93 g are considered. The nonlinearity in the viscous damper is modified by taking force proportional to various velocity exponents. It is found that the nonlinear viscous dampers with lower damping constant result in a comparable reduction in the response of RC elevated liquid storage tank, to that of linear viscous dampers with higher damping constant. A lower damping constant signifies compact the size of the damper. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2020-SP(EMCE)-09 Full Text: PDF
