A fast optimization approach is demonstrated for design optimization of the multi-pass wire drawing process with the multi-objective genetic algorithm, and with the aims at minimizing both power consumption and temperature, via optimizing the process parameters involving pass number, pass schedule, die angle, bearing length and loops on capstan etc. A jump fitness function and a penalty fitness function are proposed for the survival of good designs and killing the bad designs which temperature, die wear factor, delta factor, or ratio of drawing stress to yield stress exceed the limits during optimization. The numerical examples show that the optimizer with the penalty fitness function, when its parameternranges from 1 to 2, presents the best performance in finding the minimum power consumption with a limit in temperature. Compared with a reference design, a significant reduction in the total power consumption about 300W, with the well control in temperature, delta factor and die life, has been achieved by the optimization. The penalty fitness function presents the better performance in the reduction of the iteration generations and computational cost to the jump fitness function.

In this paper, high efficient Virtual Machine (VM) migration using GSO algorithm for cloud computing is proposed. This algorithm contains 3 phases: (i) VM selection, (ii) optimum number of VMs selection, (iii) VM placement. In VM selection phase, VMs to be migrated are selected based on their resource utilization and fault probability. In phase-2, optimum number of VMs to be migrated are determined based on the total power consumption. In VM placement phase, Glowworm Swarm Optimization (GSO) is used for finding the target VMs to place the migrated VMs. The fitness function is derived in terms of distance between the main server and the other server, VM capacity and memory size. Then the VMs with best fitness functions are selected as target VMs for placing the migrated VMs. The proposed algorithms are implemented in Cloudsim and performance results show that PEVM-GSO algorithm attains reduced power consumption and response delay with improved CPU utilization.

The mass introduction of renewable energy is essential to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. We examined an operation method that combines the surplus energy of photovoltaic power generation using demand response (DR), which recognizes the balance between power supply and demand, with an aquifer heat storage system. In the case that predicts the occurrence of DR and performs DR storage and heat dissipation operation, the result was an operation that can suppress daytime power consumption without increasing total power consumption. Case 1-2, which performs nighttime heat storage operation for about 6 h, has become an operation that suppresses daytime power consumption by more than 60%. Furthermore, the increase in total power consumption was suppressed by combining DR heat storage operation. The long night heat storage operation did not use up the heat storage amount. Therefore, it is recommended to the heat storage operation at night as much as possible before DR occurs. In the target area of this study, the underground temperature was 19.1 °C, the room temperature during cooling was about 25 °C and groundwater could be used as the heat source. The aquifer thermal energy storage (ATES) system in this study uses three wells, and consists of a well that pumps groundwater, a heat storage well that stores heat and a well that used heat and then returns it. Care must be taken using such an operation method depending on the layer configuration.

We proposed a new method for designing the CMOS differential log-companding amplifier which achieves significant improvements in linearity, common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR), and output range. With the new nonlinear function used in the log-companding technology, this proposed amplifier has a very small total harmonic distortion (THD) and simultaneously a wide output current range. Furthermore, a differential structure with conventionally symmetrical configuration has been adopted in this novel method in order to obtain a high CMRR. Because all transistors in this amplifier operate in the weak inversion, the supply voltage and the total power consumption are significantly reduced. The novel log-companding amplifier was designed using a 0.18 μm CMOS technology. Improvements in THD, output current range, noise, and CMRR are verified using simulation data. The proposed amplifier operates from a 0.8 V supply voltage, shows a 6.3 μA maximum output current range, and has a 6 μW power consumption. The THD is less than 0.03%, the CMRR of this circuit is 74 dB, and the input referred current noise density is166.1 fA/Hz. This new method is suitable for biomedical applications such as electrocardiogram (ECG) signal acquisition.

The increasing demand for primary energy leads to a growing market of natural gas and the associated market for liquefied natural gas (LNG) increases, too. The liquefaction of natural gas is an energy- and cost-intensive process. After exploration, natural gas, is pretreated and cooled to the liquefaction temperature of around −160°C. In this paper, a novel concept for the integration of the liquefaction of natural gas into an air separation process is introduced. The system is evaluated from the energetic and exergetic points of view. Additionally, an advanced exergy analysis is conducted. The analysis of the concepts shows the effect of important parameters regarding the maximum amount of liquefiable of natural gas and the total power consumption. Comparing the different cases, the amount of LNG production could be increased by two thirds, while the power consumption is doubled. The results of the exergy analysis show, that the introduction of the liquefaction of natural gas has a positive effect on the exergetic efficiency of a convetional air separation unit, which increases from 38% to 49%.

The paper describes the development of economy and electricity in Shanghai, builds a decomposition model of power consumption intensity, and analyzes the impacts of industrial power consumption intensity and industrial structure for the total power consumption intensity of Shanghai. Finally, the paper uses sub-scenarios to forecast electricity demand of Shanghai during Twelfth Five-Year period. The results show that the decrease of total power consumption intensity is mainly due to the decrease of industrial power consumption intensity, and the optimization of industrial structure has some contributions to the decrease of total power consumption as well.

The crochet knitting machine is a warp knitting machine with a weft insertion system placed on a weft guide bar. On standard machines, the weft guide bar is made from aluminum and weighs about 570 g. The single-drive motors, which power the bar, account for 15–20% of the machines total power consumption. The aim of this research was to reduce power consumption by decreasing the mass of the weft guide bar. This was done by constructing the bar from carbon fiber reinforced plastics rather than aluminum, resulting in a mass saving of 260 g.

In this paper, a novel latch-adder based multiplier design, targeting low voltage and low power IoT applications is presented. It employs a semi-dynamic (dynamic circuit with static keeper circuit) full adder design which efficiently incorporates the level sensitive latch circuit with the adder cell. Latch circuit control signals are generated by a chain of delay cell circuits. They are applied to each row of the adder array. This row-wise alignment ensures an orderly procedure, while successfully removing spurious switching resulting in reduced power consumption. Due to the delay cell circuit of our design is also realized by using full adder. Therefore, it is unnecessary to adjust the transistor sizes of the delay cell circuit deliberately. Post-layout simulation results on 8 × 8 multiplier design show that the proposed design has the lowest power consumption of all design candidates. The total power consumption saving compared to conventional array multiplier designs is up to 38.6%. The test chip measurement shows successful operations of our design down to 0.41 V with a power consumption of only 427 nW with a maximum frequency 500 KHz.
