    The imperative task of identifying and promptly detecting cracks in concrete bridges is crucial for preserving their structural health and ensuring the safety of users. Traditional bridge inspection methods heavily rely on human eyes and additional tools, demanding extensive training for inspectors and resulting in time-consuming processes. The increasing demand for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has provided a transformative solution to access hard-to-reach areas efficiently. This research explores the integration of deep learning algorithms, including CNN, RCNN, Fast RCNN, Faster RCNN, and YOLO, to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of UAV-based crack detection systems. Experimental results affirm the effectiveness of these algorithms in addressing challenges such as lighting variations and small crack detection. The study aims to contribute to structural health monitoring, improving maintenance practices, and enhancing safety

    In novel times, more demands are gained by grid connected solar inverters along with the upgrading of the solar energy generation. In grid connected solar power generation, if there is increase in placing more number of solar inverters it may result in effecting the power quality issues. Solar Grid Tied Inverter system is a electrical power generating system that is coupled to the functioning power grid. This power generating system unit consists of elements like Photovoltaic array, DC to DC converter, DC to AC converter, single phase/three phase converter, and AC Source. The inverter converts DC power generated by the array of photovoltaic cells into AC power and this generated AC power is fed to the connected AC loads. If the amount power generation is exceeding the power demanded, excess AC power is supplied to the grid. With this novel approach we can minimize the use of the AC power from the power grid and also even make a generation to the power grid and this is measured with help of net metering. In this paper designing of 281.6Kw grid tied solar power generation and technical specifications required for them are proposed

    Voltage sag is one of the most significant power quality problems in the industry and has a significant impact on induction motor safety and stability. This paper analyzes the characteristics of voltage dips in power systems and induction motors with a special emphasis on balanced dips with the help of virtual grids (regenerative grid simulator), as per IEC 61000-4-11. Three phase induction motors with 3.3 kW, 16 A coupled to a DC generator with 3.7 kW, and 7.8 A rated are considered for the test analysis. This paper aids in the development of an induction motor to achieve improved precision by taking different voltage sags into account. The experimental results benefit the design modifications of induction motors at industrial and other commercial levels of consumers regarding major power quality issues and the behavior of the induction motors. A proposed modification employing ANSYS is provided to further examine the precise performance of induction motors during sag events
