TL;DR: A comprehensive review of existing virtual manufacturing systems can be found in this article, where the focus and approaches (i.e. virtual reality, web-based techniques, mathematical modelling, hardware interactions and STEP-NC-based methodologies) are discussed in detail.
Abstract: Virtual manufacturing systems provide a useful means for products to be manufactured 'right the first time' without the need of physical testing on the shop floor. Earlier research was mostly on developing a virtual manufacturing environment. Over the years, simple graphical prediction and simulation gave way to complex multi-science predictions. Virtual systems such as Virtual Machine Tool, Virtual Machining, Virtual Assembly, Virtual Tooling and Virtual Prototype have been developed to support virtual manufacturing. Different systems and approaches have different targeted applications. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive review of existing virtual systems. Their focuses and approaches (i.e. virtual reality, Web-based techniques, mathematical modelling, hardware interactions and STEP-NC-based methodologies) are discussed in detail. To better understand the systems, we have categorized them into different groups according to their application domains. Discussions and concluding remarks are given based on the review.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors give a brief overview of the current status of renewable energy in Malaysia and provide the energy policies, specifically the renewable energy policies in Malaysia, in Section 2.
Abstract: Malaysia, as a developing country and a member of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), is looking into inexhaustible and repeatable alternative energy sources such as solar, wind, mini-hydro and biomass. The estimated GDP at 2010 is $15,385 per capita and the economic and industrial growth of the country implies that energy demand is growing very fast. In addition, the growing prices of fossil fuels, and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, make inevitable renewable energy solutions for the country. Geographically, Malaysia is located in a region of tropical and humid climate which provides easy access to a variety of renewable energy sources. The government of Malaysia has initiated renewable energy policies to encourage industries and individuals to employ renewable-energy-powered systems in power applications. This paper first gives a brief overview of the current status of renewable energy in Malaysia. Then it provides the energy policies, specifically the renewable energy policies in Malaysia, in Section 2. The renewable energy programs are reviewed in Section 3. The building energy efficiency program with green aspect is provided in Section 4. Lastly, the conclusion and forecasts of this paper are

01 Oct 2010TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithm based on Differential Evolution (DE) that is capable of tracking global MPP under partial shaded conditions.
Abstract: Photovoltaic (PV) system performance extremely depends on local insolation and temperature conditions. Under partial shading, P-I characteristics of PV systems are complicated and may have multiple local maxima. Conventional Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) techniques can easily fail to track global maxima and may be trapped in local maxima under partial shading; this can be one of main causes for reduced energy yield for many PV systems. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes a novel Maximum Power Point tracking algorithm based on Differential Evolution (DE) that is capable of tracking global MPP under partial shaded conditions. The ability of proposed algorithm and its excellent performances are evaluated with conventional and popular algorithm by means of simulation. The proposed algorithm works in conjunction with a Boost (step up) DC-DC converter to track the global peak. Moreover, this paper includes a MATLAB-based modeling and simulation scheme suitable for photovoltaic characteristics under partial shading.
