Third harmonic injection by MMC-swiss rectifier for offshore HVDC wind turbine applications
In this paper, Modular Multilevel Converter MMC-Swiss rectifier for harmonic mitigation is presented and simulated by PLECS software package. The mathematical calculations and system simulation are performed for a converter with nominal power of 400 MW and 400KV DC. The characteristic of Swiss rectifier including the operation principle, modulation strategy and relevant equations are described in detail. The MMC is used as a combination with Swiss rectifier because of its simplicity to be integrated for applications that required different level of voltages and currents, such as offshore wind turbine. Where, there is a trend to generate the electricity and transmit it in DC form due to its economic reasons. Therefore, the usage of MMC-Swiss rectifier is viable for High Voltage Direct Current HVDC applications. The contribution of Swiss rectifier is to make the current drawn from the supply by a converter, pure sinusoidal and this achieved by injecting third harmonic current in the circulating current from the DC side. Thus, this would reduce the THD and improve the power quality of the AC side currents
Combined DWT-DISB based image watermarking optimized for decision making problems
Currently, the protection of digital information, especially in the form of multimedia information such as images, video, text, and audio. The digital nature of the multimedia data has made it prone to misuse and attack, such as is of duplication, transformation, modification, and diffusion. In this sense, it is significant to create a system for protecting the intellectual property rights of the multimedia content. The system should guarantee copyright protection, authentication, and protection against duplication of the material. The drastic development in network multimedia system has made the development of these protection systems challenging. Numerous researches have proposed the use of watermarking to address these issues. The watermarking technique obscures vital information in the original multimedia data in which the hidden data is utilized for copyright protection and authentication. The primary need for any watermarking system should be to guarantee robustness against imminent attack while retaining the quality of the watermark images. This research presents a robust image watermarking technique used to hide details of the RGB Color elements.

A classification model on tumor cancer disease based mutual information and firefly algorithm
Cancer is a globally recognized cause of death. A proper cancer analysis demands the classification of several types of tumor. Investigations into microarray gene expressions seem to be a successful platform for revising genetic diseases. Although the standard machine learning (ML) approaches have been efficient in the realization of significant genes and in the classification of new types of cancer cases, their medical and logical application has faced several drawbacks such as DNA microarray data analysis limitation, which includes an incredible number of features and the relatively small size of an instance. To achieve a reasonable and efficient DNA microarray dataset information, there is a need to extend the level of interpretability and forecast approach while maintaining a great level of precision. In this work, a novel way of cancer classification based on based gene expression profiles is presented. This method is a combination of both Firefly algorithm and Mutual Information Method. First, the features are used to select the features before using the Firefly algorithm for feature reduction. Finally, the Support Vector Machine is used to classify cancer into types. The performance of the proposed system was evaluated by using it to classify datasets from colon cancer; the results of the evaluation were compared with some recent approaches

Synthesis and characterization of novel nanocomposites with nanofillers particles and their applications as dental materials
Using copolymers materials in the preparation of dental fillings is now more common as a result for needs for more esthetic materials of filling and the international ban on the use of products that contain mercury, amongst others dental amalgams. On the other hand, a disadvantage with the Dental Nanocomposites is that they have a polymerization shrinkage. Particles of the filler are combined in the amongst other components for shrinkage minimization. Filler particle sizes have decreased lately and the majority of Dental Nanocomposites include Nano-particles. New Nanocomposites materials based on 2,2 propyl bisphenyl glycidyldimethacrylate (Bis-GMA) and unsaturated monomers ( Methacrylic acid,Acrylicacid,2,2propylbisphenylglycidyldimethacrylate,Triethyleneglycoldimethacrylate ) with Nano inorganic fillers such as (SiO2,ZrO2 and Hydroxyapatite) were characterized and synthesized for the sake of evaluating the potential applications they have in the field of dentistry, as restoration materials. The initial method was generating and characterizing new dental Nano-composites in presence of Triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) as crosslinking agent. Composites which contain Bis-GMA and Triethylen glycoldimethacrylate) at the ratio (wt/wt) of 40/20, filled with various Nanofiller amounts (about 4.6%wt) were produced. Photo-polymerization has been induced with camphoroquinone / N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate(CQ/DMAEMA) present, as a system of photo-initiation. Physicochemical properties, such as volumetric shrinkage (VS), water sorption (WS) and water solubility (WSL) were studied. Characterization is performed with the use of SEM and FTIR spectrum. SEM is utilized for showing the distributions of particle sizes and particle agglomeration of the treated Nanofillers in Nanocomposite. FTIR spectroscopy is initially utilized for identifying qualitative construction of the Nanocomposites. The Thermal stability of all dental Nanocomposites were also studied using the TGA and DSC techniques. The strength and the aesthetic characteristics of resin based Nanocomposite open the possibility of using it for each of the posterior and anterior restorations. Flexural strength, compressive strength, wear resistance and hardness were evaluated. The presented research has the aim of addressing current key utilizations of the practical Nanotechnology in the field of dentistry, most importantly, tooth structure restoration with Resin-based composites (RBCs) which benefit from the Nano-particles
