Wideband third-order single-transistor all-pass filter

In this letter, a third-order wideband voltage-mode all-pass filter (APF) is proposed for application as a true time delay (TTD) cell. The advantages of designing a single-stage higher order filter over cascading several lower order stages are illustrated. The proposed APF circuit is based on a single metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) transistor and is canonical because it requires one resistor, one

Generalized switched synchronization and dependent image encryption using dynamically rotating fractional-order chaotic systems

This paper presents a generalization, attractor control and multi-scroll generation method for fractional-order chaotic systems through rotation transformation. A novel synchronization-dependent colored image encryption and secure communication scheme is also proposed. The systems with dynamic rotation angle fit successfully in a generalized dynamic switched synchronization scheme. Dynamic control

Employment of the Padé approximation for implementing fractional-order lead/lag compensators

Fractional-order lead/lag compensator realizations, using Operational Transconductance Amplifiers as active blocks, are presented in this paper. Two different types of fractional-order transfer functions, derived from the integer-order lead/lag compensator transfer function, are used to describe the behavior of the fractional-order compensator. Both types are approximated using the Padé

Experimental investigation of chitosan film reinforced by chitin fibers and chitin whiskers extracted from shrimp shell waste

An investigation has been made to predict the effects of fore body and after body chitin and chitosan are natural polymers that have many advantages, such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, healing acceleration, non-toxicity, and anti-infection properties. However, the use of pure chitosan films in many applications is limited due to their poor tensile strength and elasticity. Nevertheless

Unveiling the Effect of Zn2+ Substitution in Enrichment of Structural, Magnetic, and Dielectric Properties of Cobalt Ferrite

This work reports the detailed structural characterization of Zn2+ ion-substituted cobalt ferrite nanoparticles (CFO NPs; Co1−xZnxFe2O4; x = 0.00, 0.25, 0.50, and 0.75), prepared using a facile sol–gel method. It correlates structural changes with magnetic and dielectric properties. The as-synthesized samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, BET surface area analyzer, energy

Hadronization correspondence of Hawking-Unruh radiation from rotating and electrically charged black holes

The proposed correspondence between the Hawking-Unruh radiation mechanism in rotating, electrically-charged, and electrically-charged-rotating black holes and the hadronization process in high-energy collisions is assumed here. This allows us to determine the well-profound freezeout parameters characterizing the heavy-ion collisions. Furthermore, black holes thermodynamics is found analogous to a

Design and Implementation of an Optimized Artificial Human Eardrum Model

This paper introduces a fractional-order eardrum Type-II model, which is derived using fractional calculus to reduce the number of elements compared to its integer-order counterpart. The proposed fractional-order model parameters are extracted and compared using five meta-heuristic optimization techniques. The CMOS implementation of the model is performed using the Design Kit of the Austria Mikro

Multi-level electronic systems offer speed and area simplicity, reducing the complexity of implementation and power dissipation. In this paper, a Hybrid ternary Full Adder (FA) is proposed using Conventional Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CCMOS), Double Pass-transistor Logic (DPL), and Pass Transistors (PT). The proposed FA is extended up to 64-bits to test scalability. To validate the

Identifying the Parameters of Cole Impedance Model Using Magnitude Only and Complex Impedance Measurements: A Metaheuristic Optimization Approach

Due to the good correlation between the physiological and pathological conditions of fruits and vegetables and their equivalent Cole impedance model parameters, an accurate and reliable technique for their identification is sought by many researchers since the introduction of the model in early 1940s. The nonlinear least squares (NLS) and its variants are examples of the conventional optimization
