The design of the pico-FCV will promote student interest in environmental concerns. The project provides students with practical experience in mechatronics subjects such as mechanical design, electric circuit design, and programming. This paper will present the design and experimental results of the pico-FCV. The designed pico-FCV was able to run 2.7 km only using 5 l (0.5 g) hydrogen. </span>

Differential equations are of fundamental importance in Mathematics, Physical Sciences and Engineering Mathematics. Many mathematical relations and physical laws appeared in the form of such equations. This paper reviewed an application of these equations in solving mathematical model on electric circuit problems using the First order linear differential equation. The analytical approached in solving the equations confirmed that solving electric circuits using first order linear ordinary differential equations gives accurate and reliable result. Therefore, the application is of importance and great need. However, complex problems need higher order differential equations, which are nonlinear and have entirely different approach in finding their solutions.

Estimation of core and surface temperature is one of the crucial functionalities of the lithium-ion Battery Management System (BMS) towards providing effective thermal management, fault detection and operational safety. While, it is impractical to measure core temperature using physical sensors, implementing a complex estimation strategy in on-board low-cost BMS is challenging due to high computational cost and the cost of implementation. Typically, a temperature estimation scheme consists of a heat generation model and a heat transfer model. Several researchers have already proposed ranges of thermal models having different levels of accuracy and complexity. Broadly, there are first-order and second-order heat capacitor-resistor-based thermal models of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) for core and surface temperature estimation. This paper deals with a detailed comparative study between these two models using extensive laboratory test data and simulation study to access suitability in online prediction and onboard BMS. The aim is to guide whether it’s worth investing towards developing a second-order model instead of a first-order model with respect to prediction accuracy considering modelling complexity, experiments required and the computational cost. Both the thermal models along with the parameter estimation scheme are modelled and simulated using MATLAB/Simulink environment. Models are validated using laboratory test data of a cylindrical 18650 LIB cell. Further, a Kalman Filter with appropriate process and measurement noise levels are used to estimate the core temperature in terms of measured surface and ambient temperatures. Results from the first-order model and second-order models are analyzed for comparison purposes.

Interactive computer graphics which implies a continuous exchange of information between the computer and the user has emerged as a very powerful tool in engineering applications. Computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) have found use in electronic circuit design, manufacturing, mapping, and architectural and engineering planning. Using CAD, a machine part, an electric circuit, or a building plan can be drawn and displayed on a video terminal. The product or plan can then be manipulated, rotated, viewed from different angles, or separated into segments. The graphic and attribute information related to the drawing is stored in a data base, and can be retrieved and modified at any time. At a more sophisticated level of CAD, the data base is used to generate input data for a finite element or another analysis program. This paper presents a brief survey of the CAD scene and the hardware and software available and describes the use of interactive graphics in generating data input for analysis.

For a regular Digital Peak Respiratory Flow Metter, a strain gauge or similar probe is used to detect the strength of the blowing. The signal is then be analyzed by computer. In this innovative Self-Power Peek Respiratory Flow Meter, however, a generator is used. The generator is “one stone for two birds”: it serves as the digital signal generator to present the air flow data; it also provides the energy source to re-power the batteries. This allows people to use the equipment whenever and anywhere without worry of recharge or change batteries. Another advantage of the machine is its reliability. The blowing chamber is separated from the generator by magnetic (shaft-less) coupling, therefore, the moisture from blowing has no way to corrode the electric circuit or contaminate the instrument. Because of this innovative instrument is “Green”, “Digital” and easy of use, the application would be expanded. The Coreless Permanent Magnet Disk Generator technology (AFPM) is utilized to eliminate the cogging torque. Moreover, energy saving circuit design also implemented to make the self-power instrument a reality.

Stability control of Runge-Kutta numerical schemes is studied to increase efficiency of in- tegrating stiff problems. The implementation of the algorithm to determine coefficients of stability polynomials with the use of the GMP library is presented. Shape and size of the stability region of a method can be preassigned using proposed algorithm. Sets of first-order methods with extended stability domains are built. The results of electrical circuits simulation show the increase of the efficiency of the constructed first-order methods in comparison with methods of higher order
