OBTAINING DESIGNS TO SATISFY THE MOMENT AND NON-SINGULARITY CONDITIONS FOR ROTATABILITY
KIPLAGAT JERONO MAGDALENE
Abstract:
In this study, the aim was to obtain designs to satisfy the moment and non-singularity conditions for rotatability.
Rotatability is a property that requires that the variance of estimates of responses at points equidistant from the centre of
the design is constant on circles or spheres or hyper-spheres. The study of rotatable designs mainly emphasises the
estimation of the absolute response. Using a balanced incomplete block design in three, four, five, six, and k-factors
where each factor will contain two treatments, factorial combinations were obtained. An incidence matrix of Balanced
Incomplete Block Design is suitably chosen and must satisfy the necessary Balanced Incomplete Block Design
conditions. It should also satisfy the non-singularity conditions for a second-order design to be rotatable. A set of points
s(a, a, a)
was also suitably chosen and used to denote the symmetric point sets associated with an appropriate,
balanced incomplete design. In conclusion, some new second-order rotatable designs in three, four, five and six factors
and their generalisation in
K
factors was obtained through balanced incomplete block designs.

SOCIOECONOMIC IMPACT FOLLOWING THE INTRODUCTION OF THE RED
SWAMP CRAYFISH PROCAMBARUS CLARKII (GIRARD,1852) IN MOROCCO
SAGUEM SARA
Abstract:
The Red swamp Crayfish (Procambarusclarkii, Girard, 1852) in
developed countries has many ecological, cultural and economic
aspects. On the socioeconomic point of view, the impacts of this
exotic species are real.
The red swamp crayfish, is a species probably introduced by man in
the North-West region of Morocco. The species was introduced for
economic reasons, it is currently abundant and widespread in the
region. As an invasive species, newly introduced, its exploitation still
not regulated by the Moroccan authority. In spite of this and in a
voluntary and random way, there is an interesting fishing activity
and sale of this species by the fishermen of the region. This activity
maintains a considerable source of income and, given the negative
impact of this species on biodiversity and the lack of prevention of
its spread in the country, this fishing activity may indirectly
contribute to limiting the development of the crayfish population to
an acceptable level.
This recent study focuses on a new and possible economic resource
in the region, estimating the socioeconomic impacts of this species
in Morocco as well as the importance of taking into consideration
that this has become a new food for Moroccans.

OBTAINING THE VARIANCE AND THE COVARIANCES OF THE PARAMETER
ESTIMATES OF THE SECOND ORDER EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN
KIPLAGAT JERONO MAGDALENE
Abstract:
Rotatability is a property that requires that the variance of estimates of responses at points
equidistant from the centre of the design is constant on circles or spheres or hyper-spheres. The
study of rotatable designs mainly emphasises the estimation of the absolute response. In this study,
the aim was to construct second order rotatable designs in three, four, five, six and k-factors based
on balanced incomplete block designs. The main objective was to obtain the variance and
covariances of parameter estimates of the second-order experimental designs. Using a balanced
incomplete block design in three, four, five, six, and k-factors where each factor will contain two
treatments, factorial combinations were obtained. An incidence matrix of Balanced Incomplete
Block Design is suitably chosen and must satisfy the necessary Balanced Incomplete Block Design
conditions. It should also satisfy the non-singularity conditions for a second-order design to be
rotatable. A set of points
s(a, a, a)

PITCHER IRRIGATION: A WATER SAVING TECHNIQUE IN ARID REGION
ARUNABHA PAL
Abstract:
In many arid and semiarid counties. Among
traditional irrigation systems, pitcher
irrigation is b one among the foremost
efficient and compatible for little farmers in
many areas of the planet. Well-organized
water supervision using pitcher irrigation
offers an answer to looming water disaster
and would help bring more and more of the
un-irrigated area under the irrigation within
the country. Pitcher irrigation entails
burying an unglazed, porous clay pot with
in soil before seedling. Water poured into
pot seeps slowly into the soil, feeding the
seedling's roots with a gentle supply of
moisture. Pitcher irrigation uses water more
efficiently than other systems since it
delivers water to plant root zones, rather
than to broader areas of the sector.

DEVELOPING A HYBRID OF TUNABLE PROPORTIONAL INTEGRAL DERIVATIVE
(TPID) AND NEURAL NETWORK (NN) CONTROLLERS FOR VIBRATION
SUPPRESSION OF FLEXIBLE ROBOT ARM MANIPULATORS
Akaninyene M
Abstract:
The main objective of designing industrial robots is to carry out tasks that are oftentimes routine in
nature. The designs are achieved by ensuring the manipulators to move the body, arm and wrist
through a serious of motions. To ensure these motions, controllers are also designed to enhance
stability and flexibility. Conventional proportional integral derivatives (PID) controllers which are
most popular are not particularly efficient in providing this control operation. This work presents a
hybrid of tunable PID and neural network (NN) controllers for vibration suppression of flexible
robot arm manipulators. Mathematical models were developed to design the proposed hybrid. A
model of the hybrid system was developed. Thereafter, different control parameters including joints
and rotational angles, electrical and mechanical plant components and forearm transposition model
were used to design the body, arm and wrist components of the robot manipulator. The hybrid was
simulated and results show that the proposed model produced a better controller that the
conventional PID or NN controller used alone for a robot arm control.
Keywords: Proportional Integral Derivative (PID), TunableProportional Integral Derivative (TPID),
Neural Network (NN), Hybrid, Robot Arm Manipulators.

Artificial Neural Network Inverse Model (AIM) Based Position Control Of
DC Motor
Okafor P.U
Abstract:
The Artificial Neural Network (ANN) Inverse Model (AIM) generates an output that is proportional to the voltage
required at the input of the DC motor to produce the desired speed at the time intervals. It may not be easily obvious
that precise control of speed translates to accurate control of the position. Thus for accurate position to be achieved,
the profile of position should be incorporated in the equation governing the precise control of speed by simple
integration; this is same for all DC motors. The input to the AIM is the DC motor position at four successive
intervals. The plant model is identified first then; the controller is trained so that the plant output follows the
reference model output. The concept is to bring down the tracking error to zero or minimal acceptable value.
Simulation results show that using motor position as input ensures accurate position control which automatically
brings about accurate speed tracking

A COMPREHENSIVE STUDY ON WEIGHT MANAGEMENT FOR ATHLETES AND
ACTIVE PEOPLE
Maitri Hathi
Abstract:
Weight management for athletes and active individuals is unique because of their high daily
energy expenditure; thus, the emphasis is usually placed on changing the diet side of the energy
balance equation. When dieting for weight loss, active individuals also want to preserve lean
tissue, which means that energy restriction cannot be too severe or lean tissue is lost. First, this
brief review addresses the issues of weight management in athletes and active individuals and
factors to consider when determining a weight-loss goal. Second, the concept of dynamic energy
balance is reviewed, including two mathematical models developed to improve weight-loss
predictions based on changes in diet and exercise. These models are now available on the
Internet. Finally, dietary strategies for weight loss/maintenance that can be successfully used
with active individuals are given. Emphasis is placed on teaching the benefits of consuming a
low-ED diet (e.g., high-fiber, high-water, low-fat foods), which allows for the consumption of a
greater volume of food to increase satiety while reducing energy intake. Health professionals and
sport dietitians need to understand dynamic energy balance and be prepared with effective and
evidence-based dietary approaches to help athletes and active individuals achieve their body-weight goals.

QUALITATIVE LUCUBRATE ON PACKET SIZE ENHANCEMENT IN WIRELESS
BODY SYSTEM
ALOK SINGH SENGAR
Abstract:
In WBANs, longer packets may encounter higher misfortune rates because of unforgiving
channel conditions. Then again, shorter packets may experience the ill effects of more prominent
overhead. Thus, the ideal packet size must be selected to different execution measurements of
WBANs. According to the latest research, numerous methodologies have been suggested to
decide ideal packet size in WBANs. Literature discussed in this paper primarily focuses on
packet size optimization in a particular application or sending condition. This paper discusses the
current trends and practices on packet size optimization for wireless body area networks to
encourage the researchers for more investigation in that particular area. The objective of this
paper is to give a superior comprehension of packet size streamlining methodologies and
applications utilized in WBAN, it will likewise present some research issues that are still open
for researchers and complications related to those issues.
