Design of Clap Switch Device

Abstract This project proposal is of a clap switch device. Clap switch is a switch which can switch on/off any electrical circuit by the sound of the clap. The basic idea of clap switch is that the electric microphone picks up the sound of your claps, coughs, and the sound of that book knocked off the table. It produces a small electrical signal which is amplified by the succeeding transistor stage. This circuit has been constructed using basic electronic components like resistors, transistor...

ASSESSMENT OF OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY IN CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES IN SELECTED CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES IN UGANDA

ABSTRACT Construction is widely regarded as an accident prone industry. The reasons why construction is risky and prone to health and safety risks are because of the physical environment of the work, nature of the construction work operations, construction methods, construction materials, heavy equipment used, and physical properties of the construction project itself. The human, social and economic costs of occupational accidents, injuries, diseases and major industrial disasters have long b...

The comprehensive study of control optimization system with Model Predictive Control (MPC) for the plant of Multi Input Single Output (MISO)

A modeling with a good predictive rate is necessary to create a good performance of the predictive controller . The correct and better model to use is the Predictive Control Model (MPC) or the Predicted Control Model. This study determines the control optimization system with the Predicted Control Model for the plant of Multi Input Single Output (MISO). The MPC optimal control system designed for the closed-loop Mismatch method, the effect of changes in the Kalman amplifier state estima...

An Improved Mathematical Model using PSO for Estimating Polarization Parameters of Power Transformer Oil-Paper Insulation with FDS data

The life of a transformer is associated with the state of the insulation system, one of the techniques used to measure the insulation system is frequency-domain spectroscopy (FDS), which measures the dielectric properties in the frequency domain. This work establishes a mathematical model with the data of the FDS to estimate the parameters of the equivalent circuit of the dielectric response of the paper-oil isolation system of the transformer, which is a group of non-linear eq...

IMPLEMENTATION OF REAL TIME, INFORMATION MANAGEMENT FOR INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY (I.O.T)

ABSTRACTThis project work focuses on the creation of a website and e-portal for the institute of Technology in order to enhance communication and improve the educational system of Kwara State Polytechnic. A website is a collection of web pages, images, video and other digital assets that hosted on one or several web server, usually accessible via the internet, cell phone or a LAN. The pages of website can usually be accessed from a common root URL called the homepage, and usually be resi...

INVESTIGATION INTO THE CAUSES, EFFECT AND PREVENTION OF CRACKS IN BUILDING

ABSTRACTInvestigation into the causes, effects and prevention of crack in building, cracks this is a kind of defects that occur into building structure which rendered building unsightly and reduces building stabilities. Cracks may be of structural failure or non-structural problem which may act slightly, moderate or several. They are save or dangerous depending on the size and characteristics of each i.e. 0-3-1.00, 1-2,  2-5,5-15 and 15-25 (mm) respectively survey of building were made i...

DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF A PORTABLE CASSAVA GRATER

ABSTRACTThere is need for a hygienic processing of cassava. Prevalent condition in the commercial grating area of this staple food shows a susceptibility of food contamination. This project addresses the need for the development of a home scale cassava grater where the materials, the tuber s of cassava being grated can be properly monitored.Some design considerations used in this project are; the machine should be efficient during use in the household as well as moveable (portable) and Safety...

FABRICATION OF ELECTRICAL POP CORN MACHINE

ABSTRACTAn electric pop corn machine is a machine that is used to pop com for human consumption. It uses electricity as its source of energy, transfer heat energy, that is used to rotate due to the convention of electrical energy from the source to mechanical energy in the motor, the stirrer turns the corn so that it will not burns. This project went as far as meeting most of the requirement of advancement in technology, which lead to make work easy and comfortable for the user.To be can...

FABRICATION OF A PEPPER GRINDING MACHINE
