We are introduced a mining technique like firewall detection and frequent item set selection to enhance the system security in event management system. In addition, we are increasing the deduction techniques we have try to overcome attackers in data mining rules using our SIEM project. In proposed work to leverages to significantly improve attack detection and mitigate attack consequences. And also we proposed approach in an advanced decision-making system that supports domain expert’s targeted events based on the individuality of the exposed IWIs. Furthermore, the application of different aggregation functions besides minimum and maximum of the item sets. Frequent and infrequent weighted item sets represent correlations frequently holding the data in which items may weight differently. However, we need is discovering the rare or frequent data correlations, cost function would get minimized using data mining techniques. There are many issues discovering rare data like processing the larger data, it takes more for process. Not applicable to discovering data like minimum of certain values. We need to handle the issue of discovering rare and weighted item sets, the frequent weighted itemset (WI) mining problem. Two novel quality measures are proposed to drive the WI mining process and Minimal WI mining efficiently in SIEM system. http://ijaers.com/detail/an-approach-of-data-mining-techniques-using-firewall-detection-for-security-and-event-management-system-2/ R.Shalini, T.Nirmal Raj http://ijaers.com/uploads/issue_files/1467881283-2 IJAERS-JUN-2016-64-An Approach of Data Mining Techniques Using Firewall Detection for Security and Event Management System.pdf The cognitive radio based wireless regional area networks (WRAN) is nothing but IEEE-802.22 standard. IEEE 802.22 standard enables opportunistic access to in-use or free 900 MHz TV sub bands by secondary networks. There are many other standards presented; however there is no efficient methods for cognitive networks like LTE for channel access and bandwidth utilization. The existing methods for spectrum access in LTE networks, however most of methods are not flexible, power consuming. Also in literature, we studied that existing methods of spectrum allocation in LTE networks does not efficiently achieve the tradeoff between network QoS (Quality of Service) and power efficiency. The goal of this paper is to present the review on such different spectrum efficiency techniques for LTE networks and then evaluate the recent Queue Based Control (QBC) for power efficient spectrum allocation with its limitations and benefits. QBC approach helps in solving the research problem related to the energy efficiency as well as QoS efficiency to some extent. There are two variants of QBC method such as QBC1 and QBC2 with different objectives and configurations. We are evaluating both this approach on LTE network which is composed of Spectrum Manager (SM), evolved Nodes B (eNBs) and number of user’s. The experimental work is conducted using network simulator (NS2) for delay and energy consumption parameters. http://ijaers.com/detail/a-review-and-evaluation-of-queue-based-control-power-efficient-spectrum-allocation-method-for-lte-networks-2/ Serge Tshienda Mundele, Yingzhuang Liu http://ijaers.com/uploads/issue_files/1467881289-3 IJAERS-JUN-2016-57-A Review and Evaluation of Queue Based Control Power Efficient Spectrum Allocation Method for LTE Networks.pdf Prediction of gasoline consumption in transportation accurately has important reference value for the scientific planning and decision making on the energy needs and environmental protection. For the lack of historical data of gasoline consumption in transportation, a grey gas consumption prediction model is built based on grey system modeling and the analysis of degree of grey incidence and residual. Contrastive analysis of specific value of the variance and small error probability of a case study with accuracy grades indicated that the gray gas consumption prediction model is fitting precisely and reliable. http://ijaers.com/detail/prediction-of-gas-consumption-in-transportation-based-on-grey-system-theory-2/ ZHANG Yanjun, LIU Qun, Zhang Yongjin, ZHANG Shanwen http://ijaers.com/uploads/issue_files/4 IJAERS-JUN-2016-54-Prediction of Gas Consumption in Transportation Based on Grey System Theory.pdf An analytical study of the thermal impact failure on a diesel engine piston has been performed in order to determine and analyze the possible causes of the failure. The piston is subjected to preliminary inspection, microstructure analysis and then hardness testing. Visual examination revealed the impact made by piston with valve head and the subsequent welding of the broken valve portion with the piston crown. It is observed to be caused by improper operating conditions. SEM and EDS analysis performed on the piston specimen revealed the presence of high alloy content and various intermetallics that precipitated in the Al-Si alloy material during combustion process. These particles are attributed for the high hardness and brittleness of the piston surface which thereby resulted in its fracture upon the impact. The weak boundaries between the intermetallics easily enable fatigue crack growth up to failure. Results from the microhardness test performed on the specimens validate the increase in hardness on the crown than on skirt. The analysis of obtained data and observations suggests that piston would have failed by fatigue even if the valve operated properly. http://ijaers.com/detail/effect-of-thermal-impact-failure-on-aluminum-alloy-piston-crown/ Dileep.

The failure characteristics of system components (cylinder, Direction control valve and pump) have been compared in terms of RPN, Criticality number, MTBF and MTTR. Fault tree analysis performed on the balancing system enabled to explore the root causes of component failure with help of hydraulic balancing circuit. FMEA analysis provided RPN (Risk priority number) and criticality numbers which indicated higher failure risk for Direction control valve, whereas MTBF and MTTR values suggested pump has higher failure chance. By preparing a logic diagram for each of the components, the contribution of each one for the implementation of a structured predictive maintenance planning has been determined. http://ijaers.com/detail/application-of-reliability-centered-maintenance-on-horizontal-boring-machine-a-case-study/ B.

But, in this work an attempt is made to achieve compression using Approximation DCT (ADCT). ADCT is useful for reducing its computational complexity without affecting its coding performance. It provides better image and video compression compared to the DCT. ADCT is orthogonal and it has lower structural complexity compared to DCT. The unique feature of the ADCT is that it could be configured for the computation of the 32 point ADCT or for parallel computation of two16 point ADCTs or four 8 points ADCTs. It has many advantages in terms of orthogonality, structural simplicity and lower computational complexity. The proposed ADCT is implemented using Verilog and Simulated by ModelSim and synthesized by Xilinx ISE 9.1i. Results are compared with 16 point ADCT with 16 point DCT implementation. The target device is XC5vtx330t-2ff1738. The 16 point ADCT implementation results in a saving of 28.37% IOBs and 63% of LUTs, compared to existing 16 point DCT implementation. http://ijaers.com/detail/design-and-implementation-of-image-compression-encoder-using-orthogonal-approximation-dct/ Vanitha R, K S Gurumurthy http://ijaers.com/uploads/issue_files/1468067802-7 IJAERS-JUN-2016-66-Design and Implementation of Image Compression Encoder using Orthogonal Approximation DCT.pdf The dissertation report presents a theoretical analysis to investigate the influence of non-Newtonian pseudo-plastic and dilatant lubricant behaviour on 180 degree partial arc orifice compensated hydrostatic/hybrid journal bearings performance characteristics.

For the purposes of this study, said negative impact is defined as the direct or indirect adverse consequences suffered by natural and socioeconomic ecosystems as a result of an environmental change caused by an action or set of actions of human or man-made origin. We will analyze the case studies of interventions in coastal ecosystems with high levels of ecological fragility, such as the beaches of the small islands or keys of Cuba. Strategic lines of action with a focus on sustainability are proposed in order to ensure respectful architectural interventions in these highly environmentally and socio-culturally vulnerable ecosystems of this island region. http://ijaers.com/detail/the-sustainability-of-planning-tourism-for-cuban-beach-ecosystems/ Lourdes Ruiz Gutierrez http://ijaers.com/uploads/issue_files/1468563405-10 IJAERS-JUL-2016-3-The Sustainability of Planning Tourism for Cuban Beach Ecosystems.pdf This paper presents failure investigation on the SA210GrC water wall tube by visual Site inspection, tube wall thickness measurements, chemical composition test, Hardness test and microstructure analysis with proper evidence collected to identify the exact cause of the failure. The water wall tube was failed with blister, bulging and creep cracks on outer surface located near to the Soot Blower. On-site wall thickness measurements were performed on some of the water wall tubes located at the same level of the ruptured tube. The tubes have significant wall thinning and erosion from outside. Mild corrosion deposition also seen in the inner side. Microscopic examinations on the failed rupture region and some distance away of the as-received tubes are also conducted in order to determine the failure mechanism and root cause. Failure mechanisms are also discussed and relevant data from few months back to the failure gathered to identify the failure reason. The failure mechanism is identified as a result of the combination of the significant wall thinning of water wall tube due to long term overheating and creep. Corrosion due to oxygen is also a cause of wall thinning. Root cause analysis identified that deaerator was not working efficient to remove dissolved gases was reason behind corrosion. Long term overheating was due to operating temperature above the design one. Finally all the parameters checked and rectified properly. Maintenance of Deaerator has been done to put it in the working condition. http://ijaers.com/detail/a-failure-analysis-and-remaining-life-assessment-of-boiler-water-wall-tube/ Patel Sunny Sanjay, Dr R.

In recent years, advanced oxidation processes (AOP) have been developed to meet the increasing need of an effective wastewater treatment. AOP generates powerful oxidizing agent hydroxyl radicals which completely destroy the pollutants in waste water. Solar disinfection of drinking water with polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles coated with photo-catalyst TiO2 has been shown to be very effective. The study is based on comparison between three systems for treating contaminated water samples using PET bottles. First system was a PET untreated bottle, the second system was a PET bottle coated with black paint on its outer surface. Finally the third system was a PET bottle coated also with a black coat on its outer surface and its inner part was treated with citric acid solution to enable np-TiO2 to cover the surface later on, then 0.2 g of np-TiO2 powder (of particle size <25 nm, Sigma-Aldrich) was added. The total bacterial accounts were determined to monitor the effect in the three systems. The experimental results have shown that disinfecting water with merely UV was less effective than combining the bottle with heat effect, and adding TiO2 film was further more benefited. This work can be applied in rural areas, with no technical support or need for expensive/dangerous chemicals for drinking safe water even if is stored for two days. http://ijaers.com/detail/solar-disinfection-of-drinking-water-with-polyethylene-terephthalate-bottles-coated-with-nano-titanium-dioxide/ Ibrahim E.

A large number of the young workforce was engaged in assembling units where the design of the workstation and work environment does not adequately fulfill the ergonomic requirements for correct manual assembly. Due to the poor ergonomically designed workstation workers had to adopted the awkward work posture which leads to musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) and the occupational health hazards. Therefore, a survey of watch assembly industry was conducted to assess the prevalence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders among female workers. The 120 respondents were selected from two units among which one was carrying out manual assembly and another one automatic assembly line. RULA (Rapid Upper Limb Assessment) was used to assess the working postures and recommend the changes to be made. To examine the prevalence of body pain body map was used. Frequency and percentage were used for the analysis of data. This study has shown that women workers involved in assembly work were confronted with WMSDs. Watch assembly workers carrying out repetitive tasks with hands and fingers, and working in awkward postures had high pain prevalence in the neck, upper back and lower back pain. Thus it is clear that due to adoption of awkward postures at work for a prolonged period of time, the female assembly workers suffer from high rate of work related musculoskeletal disorders. http://ijaers.com/detail/assessment-of-musculoskeletal-disorder-risk-in-watch-assembly-industry/ Bhupender Oulakh, Deepa Vinay http://ijaers.com/uploads/issue_files/1469121266-16 IJAERS-JUL-2016-11-Assessment of Musculoskeletal Disorder Risk in watch assembly Industry.pdf Amidst several biometric measures, the figure knuckle surface is becoming a preferred choice of researchers due to its natural ease of reproducibility and verification.

The compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength was checked on the 3-day, 7-day and 28-day and results are indicating that the proposed mix can produce self-compacting reactive powder concrete (Ultra High Performance Concrete)with higher quality. Ultra High-performance concretes are made with carefully selected high-quality ingredients and optimized mixture designs; these are batched, mixed, placed, compacted and cured to the highest industry standards. Typically, such concretes will have a low water-cementing materials ratio of 0.20 to 0.45. Super Plasticizers are usually used to make these concretes fluid and workable. Ultra High-performance concrete almost always has a higher strength than high performance concrete. http://ijaers.com/detail/steel-reinforced-reactive-powder-concrete-2/ Athulya Sugathan http://ijaers.com/uploads/issue_files/1469961797-27 IJAERS-JUL-2016-18-Steel Reinforced Reactive Powder Concrete.pdf Nowadays the security methods from password protected access up to firewalls which are used to secure the data as well as the networks from attackers. Several times these type of security methods are not enough to protect data. We can consider the use of Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) is the one way to secure the data on critical systems. Most of the research work is going on the effectiveness and exactness of the intrusion detection, but these attempts are for the detection of the intrusions at the operating system and network level only. It is unable to detect the unexpected behavior of systems due to malicious transactions in databases. The method used for spotting any interferes on the information in the form of database known as database intrusion detection. It relies on enlisting the execution of a transaction. After that, if the recognized pattern is aside from those regular patterns actual is considered as an intrusion. But the identified problem with this process is that the accuracy algorithm which is used may not identify entire patterns. This type of challenges can affect in two ways. 1) Missing of the database with regular patterns. 2) The detection process neglects some new patterns. Therefore we proposed sequential data mining method by using new Modified Apriori Algorithm. The algorithm upturns the accurateness and rate of pattern detection by the process. The Apriori algorithm with modifications is used in the proposed model. http://ijaers.com/detail/intrusion-detection-and-anomaly-detection-system-using-sequential-pattern-mining/ Shruti Karde, Mettu Govind Rao, Rajesh Bhise http://ijaers.com/uploads/issue_files/1469959898-28 IJAERS-JUL-2016-46-Intrusion Detection and Anomaly Detection System Using Sequential Pattern Mining.pdf The study aimed to highlight the demographic profile of customers, brand concern amongst consumers while buying interior product online and satisfaction level of consumers (n=40).

In the available literature, numbers of design guidelines are available for proportioning the plate systems and mostly, these guidelines have been suggested on the basis of the results of an extensive series of tests and the well established performance record of various plate systems. However, its behavior is not fully understood. In the present paper, an attempt has been made to study the effect of beam stiffness on the moment field and crack pattern appearing in the plate under a uniform lateral load. To validate the analytical results, these are compared with the experimental results available in the literature and are found to be in good agreement. http://ijaers.com/detail/numerical-analysis-of-laterally-loaded-rc-stiffened-plate-using-ansys/ Ravpreet Kaur, Manpreet Kaur http://ijaers.com/uploads/issue_files/1469960295-30 IJAERS-JUL-2016-36-Numerical Analysis of Laterally Loaded RC Stiffened-Plate Using ANSYS.pdf The goal of this research is to understand and quantify the impact and effects of low temperature operation has on the performance and efficiency of vehicle fuel cell systems through modeling. More specifically, this work addresses issues of the initial thermal transient known to the automotive community as “cold-start” effects. Cold-start effects play a significant role in power limitations in a fuel cell vehicle, and may require hybridization (batteries) to supplement available power. A fuel cell system model developed as part of this work allows users to define the basic thermal fluid relationships in a fuel cell system. The model can be used as a stand-alone version or as part of a complex fuel cell vehicle model. Fuel cells are being considered for transportation primarily because they have the ability to increase vehicle energy efficiency and significantly reduce or eliminate tailpipe emissions. A proton exchange membrane fuel cell is an electrochemical device for which the operational characteristics depend heavily upon temperature. Thus, it is important to know how the thermal design of the system affects the performance of a fuel cell, which governs the efficiency and performance of the system. http://ijaers.com/detail/impact-of-cold-start-on-vehicle-fuel-economy-and-performance/ Sandeep Sharma, Rahul http://ijaers.com/uploads/issue_files/1470049971-31 IJAERS-JUL-2016-44-Impact of Cold Start on Vehicle Fuel Economy and Performance.pdf In cloud computing, data owners host their data on cloud servers and users (data consumers) can access the data from cloud servers. Due to the data outsourcing, however, this new paradigm of data hosting service also introduces new security challenges, which requires an independent auditing service to check the data integrity in the cloud. Some existing remote integrity checking methods can only serve for static archive data and thus cannot be applied to the auditing service since the data in the cloud can be dynamically updated. Thus, an efficient and secure dynamic auditing protocol is desired to convince data owners that the data are correctly stored in the cloud. In this paper, we first design an auditing framework for cloud storage systems and propose an efficient and privacy-preserving auditing protocol. Then, we extend our auditing protocol to support the data dynamic operations, which is efficient and provably secure in the random oracle model. We further extend our auditing protocol to support batch auditing for both multiple owners and file verification. The analysis and simulation results show that our proposed auditing protocols are secure and efficient, especially it reduce the computation cost of the auditor. http://ijaers.com/detail/a-framework-for-scrutiny-of-secure-data-storage-in-cloud-services/ S.Venkataramana, Dr P.V.G.D.

Image processing is used in the medical field for detection of tumor. Image segmentation is an important part of image processing. Segmentation is the process of subdividing an image into distinct regions. The algorithm has the steps of preprocessing, cervix extraction, cervix boundary correction, image segmentation, feature extraction and image classification. The image is preprocessed using adaptive median filtering and fuzzy thresholding. The cervix is extracted using canny edge detection and border tracing algorithm. The cervix boundary correction is performed using adaptive concave hull algorithm. Segmentation is performed using region growing based technique. Then for the segmented tumor region, the features are extracted using the gray level co-occurrence matrix. After the features are extracted, the image is classified as the benign or malignant cervix by using the bag of visual word classifier. http://ijaers.com/detail/classification-of-cervix-tumor-using-bag-of-visual-word-classifier/ Hema Rajini N http://ijaers.com/uploads/issue_files/33Classificationof.pdf
