Control Systems: Applications

Control Systems: Applications

Electrical engineering plays a pivotal role in our daily lives, with control systems at the heart of many applications, from home appliances to sophisticated space shuttles. Control systems manage and regulate the behavior of devices and processes, ensuring they function safely, correctly, and efficiently.
In modern vehicles, control systems manage various functions to enhance performance and safety. The steering wheel and accelerator are primary inputs in a car's control system. The...

Electro-mechanical Systems

Electro-mechanical Systems

Electromechanical systems are intricate configurations that effectively combine electrical and mechanical elements to achieve a desired outcome. Central to many of these systems is the DC motor, a device that converts electrical energy into mechanical motion, enabling various applications ranging from simple fans to complex robotic mechanisms.
A key component of the DC motor is the armature, a rotating circuit positioned within a magnetic field. As an electric current passes through the...

Control Systems

Control Systems

Control systems are everywhere in contemporary society, influencing diverse applications from aerospace to automated manufacturing. These systems can be found naturally within biological processes, such as blood sugar regulation and heart rate adjustment in response to stress, as well as in man-made systems like elevators and automated vehicles. A control system is essentially a network of subsystems and processes that collaboratively convert specific inputs into desired outputs.
At the heart...

Principle of Virtual Work: Problem Solving

Principle of Virtual Work: Problem Solving

The principle of virtual work is an essential concept in the field of mechanics and engineering. This is used to solve problems related to the equilibrium of a structure or system. It is based on the assumption that if a system is in equilibrium, the work done by all the forces during a virtual displacement is zero. This principle is applied by considering virtual displacements of the system and the corresponding work done by internal and external forces.
To apply the principle of virtual work,...

Application of Pascal's Law

Application of Pascal's Law

Pascal's experimentally proven observations—that a change in pressure applied to an enclosed fluid is transmitted undiminished throughout the fluid and to the walls of its container—provide the foundations for hydraulics, one of the most important developments in modern mechanical technology.
Hydraulic systems are used to operate automotive brakes, hydraulic jacks, and numerous other mechanical systems. We can derive a relationship between the forces in a simple hydraulic system...

Synthetic Biology

Synthetic Biology

Synthetic biology is an interdisciplinary science that involves using principles from disciplines such as engineering, molecular biology, cell biology, and systems biology. It involves remodeling existing organisms from nature or constructing completely new synthetic organisms for applications such as protein or enzyme production, bioremediation, value-added macromolecule production, and the addition of desirable traits to crops, to name a few.

Background:

Application development for cyber-physical systems (CPS) is challenging due to high expertise and domain knowledge requirements.
Low-code solutions and domain-specific languages (DSLs) aim to reduce complexity by enabling higher abstraction levels.

Purpose of the Study:

To propose and evaluate a multi-domain-specific language (DSL) approach for simplifying the development of cyber-physical systems (CPS).
To introduce the LocSys platform, facilitating the integration and management of multiple DSLs for CPS design and development.

Main Methods:

Developed a multi-DSL approach integrated into the LocSys platform for managing models and transformation pipelines.
Conducted a workshop with over 80 participants of varying expertise to evaluate the approach's usability and acceptance.
Utilized System Usability Scale (SUS) measurements to quantify usability and acceptance.

Main Results:

The multi-DSL approach achieved a high average SUS score of 80.65, indicating excellent usability (A- grade).
The LocSys platform and the multi-DSL approach were well-received, particularly by participants without prior domain expertise.
Preliminary findings demonstrate the approach's potential for building smart environments with integrated automation and monitoring.

Conclusions:

The proposed multi-DSL approach effectively alleviates the complexities of CPS development.
The LocSys platform offers a viable solution for integrating DSLs and managing CPS development aspects.
The approach shows significant promise for enabling broader adoption of CPS development technologies.
