Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTask Scheduling in Real Time Systems with Energy Harvesting and Energy MinimizationArvind Kumar, Bashir AlamEnergy is a major concern in battery operated real time devices (e.g. sensor nodes situated in remote areas) as battery life is solely responsible for the functioning of such devices. For such systems to work continuously and successively a regular source of energy is required. The lifetime of such systems can be increased by reducing the energy consumption and increasing … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 8 · 15 Aug 2018 · 8,287 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHarvesting Chaetoceros Calcitrans and Nannochloropsis sp. Via ElectroflocculationNitin Raut, Dinesh Kumar Saini, Reena VaidyaThe efficiency of harvesting the algal biomass plays a dominant role in the production of biodiesel from microalgae. On a commercial scale the choice and efficiency of the harvesting techniques may be a deciding factor for economic viability of this renewable energy source. The highly energy intensive centrifugation and filtration process are followed by flocculation for harvesting microalgae. Therefore the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 9 · 12 Apr 2017 · 7,719 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleReview of Charge Pump Topologies for Micro Energy Harvesting SystemsMichelle Lim Sern Mi, Md. Shabiul Islam, Jahariah Sampe, Sawal Hamid Md. AliThis paper reviews CMOS based charge pump topologies used within autonomous embedded micro-systems. These charge pump structures have evolved from its simplistic diode-tied, single-branches with major threshold drops to exponential type, dual-branches with sophisticated gate and substrate control for lower voltage operation. Published charge pumps are grouped based on architecture, operation principles and pump optimization techniques with their pros and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 26 May 2016 · 7,627 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluating Rainwater Harvesting System for School BuildingsManoj K. Jha, Nishant ShahFreshwater is becoming limited as our climate and weather pattern changes. In this study, a rainwater harvesting system was evaluated for collecting and utilizing rainwater for uses in non-potable purposes. Water-Balance was carried out for two design scenarios: Single tank and double tank, for irrigation in all main fields (202,724 ft2). The irrigation demand for the entire field was estimated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 22 Sep 2015 · 8,909 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSoft Path Water Management in Dry and arid Regions of the Arabian Peninsula by Rainwater HarvestingM. T. Amin, A. A. Alazba, U. ManzoorSaudi Arabia has limited renewable water resources and the groundwater is the main source of water in Saudi Arabia which. With an arid climate, it receives about 50-100 mm/year of rainfall in Central, Eastern and Northern regions. There are few studies investigating the future regional climate change and some has predicted a decrease in precipitation but with extreme climate events … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 13 Apr 2013 · 7,852 accessesView PDFCite
