Development of an Automated Load-Controlled Thermopower Measurement Technique for Thermoelectric Materials
Abstract: The Seebeck coefficient, or thermoelectric power, is crucial. In order to deliver accurate readings over a wide temperature range, a load-based, high-precision thermoelectric power (TEP) measurement device has been designed, constructed, and experimentally validated in this study. The system is based on a differential DC approach and replaces conventional spring-based contact mechanisms with a shifting mechanical load to avoid errors caused by spring contraction, thermal cycling, and contact instability at …

Rural electrification through micro-grid design case study
Abstract: We introduce the design and experimental demonstration of a scalable DC micro-grid for rural electrification in the developing regions. The distributed control of the grid voltage is one of the main features of the DC micro-grid architecture, which allows both instantaneous power sharing and a metric for available grid power. A droop-voltage power-sharing scheme is utilized wherein the bus voltage decreases in response to low supply/high demand. Besides that, the …

Tai Chi Therapy's Effectiveness on Depression and Quality of Life in Elderly Residents of Old Age Homes in Kanyakumari District, Tamil Nadu, India
Abstract: Growing older is the process of ageing. If we can make sure that we are lengthening life in the middle and not simply at the end, older people will live longer and in better health. The “longevity dividend” might be substantial for the societies that adapt to this shifting demography and invest in healthy ageing (WHO). Due to the socio-demographic changes, older adults at times are forced to transit from …
