25. INTERFERENCE OF THE NUMBER OF REMOTE CONTROL VALVES IN USE ON THE ENERGY PERFORMANCE OF AN AGRICULTURAL TRACTOR WITH PRODUCTIVITY MANAGEMENT
ABSTRACT The hydraulic remote control system allows the transfer of energy from the engine through a flow of hydraulic oil to engines and implements pulled by agricultural tractors, which can interfere with its energy and operational performance. This study aimed to evaluate the interference of the number of remote control valves in use on the operational an

26. Efficiency of electricity distribution companies
Abstract Purpose After assessing papers on efficiency, most of the studies available are focused on the analysis of efficiency measures, without providing a deep discussion of the factors that determine efficiency. This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of Brazilian electricity distribution companies based on a structural model that enables the identifi

27. Synthesis, Characterization, and Synergic Photocatalytic Activity of Amorphous TiO2/Chitosan Carbon Microspheres
In this work, we report the synthesis and characterization of new amorphous graphene-like TiO2/chitosan carbon microspheres and its performance as photocatalyst. Four different carbon chitosan microspheres materials were obtained based on the distinctive procedure to incorporate TiO2 and TiOSO4 to chitosan structure by pyrolysis at 600 °C. Detailed characte

29. Near-Infrared Luminescence from Visible-Light-Sensitized Ruthenium(II)-Neodymium(III) Heterobimetallic Bridged Complexes Containing Alkoxy(silyl) Functional Groups
New infrared emitting d-f (ruthenium(II)-neodymium(III)) heterobimetallic complexes with alkoxy(silyl) functional groups have been prepared. Visible excitation evidenced energy transfer processes from the ruthenium(II) donor to neodymium(III) acceptors leading to infrared emission. Energy transfer rates (kEnT) and efficiency of energy transfer (ηEnT) are, r

30. FUZZY SLIDING-MODE TEMPERATURE-CONTROL SYSTEM FOR SOAKING AND GERMINATION OF RICE SEEDS
ABSTRACT The soaking and germination process of rice seeds is the starting point in rice cultivation in cold regions and has a significant effect on grain yield. Efficient techniques for controlling the water temperature in the seed tank are required to enhance germination quality. This paper introduces a fuzzy theory for designing a fuzzy logic-based slidin

32. Analysis and Optimization of Ultra-Low-Power Rectifier with High Efficiency for Applications in Wireless Power Transmission and Energy Harvesting
Abstract The system capable of harvesting RF energy from the environment through an antenna and converting it into direct current energy to deliver to a load is known as rectenna. The rectifier circuit is an important part of the rectenna and its modeling is arduous since it employs a non-linear device working at extremely low power levels. In addition, ther

33. JUDD-OFELT ANALYSIS OF Tb3+ AND UPCONVERSION STUDY IN Yb3+-Tb3+ CO-DOPED CALIBO GLASSES
We report on the study of the spectroscopic properties in Ytterbium-Terbium (Yb3+-Tb3+) co-doped calcium lithium borate (CaLiBO) glasses, with the study’s focus being on the upconversion process. Intensity parameters Ωλ for CaLiBO:Tb3+ are determined by the Judd-Ofelt method to be Ω2 = 15.5 × 10-20 cm2, Ω4 = 1.90 × 10-20 cm2 and Ω6 = 3.69 × 10-20 c
