The effects of electromagnetic waves in drying processes of solid materials are investigated theoretically and experimentally. Modified model of mass transfer being constituted by the effect of electromagnetic waves which have different frequency has been obtained. Modeling of the drying process with a two-port electric circuit for the determination of diffusion coefficients is designed. The frequency limits of electromagnetic wave which will be able to hasten the drying process are determined. The effects of the electromagnetic wave in the potato slice drying process by the influence of different frequencies and temperatures are experimentally examined. The results obtained are compared with theoretical calculations. Moisture concentration curves in drying process have been commented by drawing. Theoretical and experimental results which have been obtained are identified as a well adaptation.

In this paper a problem of fingerprint-based biometric technique for the use in cases when the fingertips surface has been seriously damaged, making it impossible or extremely difficult to form a conventional reference pattern, is addressed. The optical coherence tomography (OCT) is considered as a method to acquire data enabling later reconstruction of the fingerprint pattern from the internal (mother) layer. A set of two procedures: the first converting the 3-dimensional data resulting from the OCT to the 2-dimensional raw fingerprint image and the second adapting this image to input data for simple, standard fingerprint recognition algorithms, are described. Both procedures make up a complete preprocessing tool. The data set consisted of 149 B-scans forming a 3-dimensional structure describing the surface and shallow internal layer of a part of a fingertip of a person with considerably damaged fingertip surface, making the recognition of the fingerprint with direct method impossible. The obtained results prove that the OCT technique can be efficiently used to solve the considered problem, and that the proposed algorithms form a tool that can be useful for larger databases.

In the building climate control area, the linear model predictive control (LMPC)—nowadays considered a mature technique—benefits from the fact that the resulting optimization task is convex (thus easily and quickly solvable). On the other hand, while nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) using a more detailed nonlinear model of a building takes advantage of its more accurate predictions and the fact that it attacks the optimization task more directly, it requires more involved ways of solving the non-convex optimization problem. In this paper, the gap between LMPC and NMPC is bridged by introducing several variants of linear time-varying model predictive controller (LTVMPC). Making use of linear time-varying model of the controlled building, LTVMPC obtains predictions which are closer to reality than those of linear time invariant model while still keeping the optimization task convex and less computationally demanding than in the case of NMPC. The concept of LTVMPC is verified on a set of numerical experiments performed using a high fidelity model created in a building simulation environment and compared to the previously mentioned alternatives (LMPC and NMPC) looking at both the control performance and the computational requirements.
In this paper, two alternatives approaches to model predictive control (MPC) are compared and contrasted for the role of zone temperature controller - the commonly used linear formulation (LMPC) and rather unconventio...

A novel structure for power maximization of the PV (photovoltaic) system under partially condition is presented. By using CSI (Current Source Inverter) instead of VSI (Voltage Source Inverter), the structure of PV system becomes extremely both more simple and reliable than conventional one. It means that MICs (Module Integrated Converters) can be consisted of buck-only converters and electrolytic capacitors can be removed from the inverter. The experimental results confirmed that the total output power captured the sum of each maximum value of PV under shading conditions.
