Examination of the Amplitude Equation to the Characteristics of Harmonic Oscillators: The Concept of Schrodinger Wave Equation
Abstract: Although Heisenberg’s matrix mechanics was developed first, the Schrödinger equation was the first useful quantum wave equation. However, the Schrödinger equation is applicable only to non-relativistic cases. As opposed to classical physics, where the wave equation can be derived from first principles, in quantum physics the wave equation is obtained by a plausibility argument based on classical physics and the de Broglie hypotheses. Inserting the de Broglie relations. A frequently …

Automated Garbage Bin Monitoring: An Embedded System Approach
Abstract: Most cities today are faced with challenges of garbage management which are brought about by indiscriminate damping by the inhabitants. This has led to littering of garbage in the community hence, unhealthy living conditions. Such littering of garbage also leads to the spread of diseases. Currently, municipal authorities are unable to sufficiently respond and collect the garbage due to constraints like the lack of a notification system to remind them …

Deep Reinforcement Learning-Based MPPT for PV Systems Under Partial Shading: A Hybrid Metaheuristic-Optimized Control Framework.
Abstract: Partial shade and quickly changing environmental conditions make Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) in photovoltaic (PV) arrays particularly difficult. In these situations, traditional algorithms frequently fail to find the global optimum or experience sluggish convergence and steady-state oscillations. To obtain reliable, real-time MPPT under non-uniform irradiance, this research suggests a hybrid control architecture that combines a deep recurrent reinforcement learning (DRL) agent with metaheuristic-based parameter optimization and a digital-twin training …

A Brief Review on Induction heating
Abstract: Induction heating is the method of heating an electrically conducting material (usually a metal) by electromagnetic induction, through eddy currents generating heat in the object. An induction heater is an electromagnet and an electronic oscillator that passes through the electromagnet through a high-frequency alternating current (AC). The rapidly alternating magnetic field penetrates the artifact, producing the conductor's electrical currents called eddy currents. The eddy currents flow through Joule heating through …

Modern Technology Analog Circuits:Applications and Challenges - An Exploration
Abstract: An analog circuit is an electronic system that processes signals that vary continuously. The signals reflect physical quantities, such as sound, temperature or light, as proportionate levels of voltage or current. However, they are not digital circuits. They operate on a continuous spectrum. They use resistors, capacitors, and transistors, and can amplify, filter, or otherwise alter signals. Analog circuits are still a vital feature of electronic systems today, allowing continuous-time …
