    Signal Spectrum Based Condition Monitoring of Electrical Machines Based on Low Sampling Rate
    (I.O.E, 2024-06) Paudel, Ashish; Gautam, Basanta K.
    In the pursuit of enhancing condition monitoring techniques for electrical machines, this research addresses the intricate challenge of sampling rates in data acquisition. Conventional high-frequency sampling, while providing rich data, incurs substantial costs in memory, processing power, and computational time. Additionally, it introduces complexities related to data loss during acquisition setup. Aiming for a more balanced approach, this study explores the potential of low sampling rates, acknowledging the trade-offs in signal resolution. An innovative algorithm is proposed to harness the advantages of low sampling rates, circumventing the pitfalls of spectral leakages that often plague signal analysis. Notably, the proposed methodology eliminates the need for windowing functions, a traditional requirement in spectral analysis. The intricate process of window selection, crucial for narrowing the main lobe and reducing leakage energy, necessitates specialized knowledge. The proposed algorithm simplifies this aspect, presenting an effective solution without compromising analytical precision. This study investigates the feasibility and effectiveness of using a low sampling rate of 2 kHz for the condition monitoring of electrical machines, specifically targeting the detection of broken rotor bars (BRBs).

    Subversion of Heterosexual Normativity in Smith’s Girl Meets Boy
    (2014) Paudel, Ashish
    The present research explores the study of queer behavior of characters that „question‟ and „trouble‟ the dominant narrative of heterosexual bond and its gender biases in Ali Smith‟s Girl Meets Boy. Blurring heterosexual bond with idea of queerness, it analyses dichotomy of authoritative, fixed and oppressive meaning of heterosexual bond towards homo-social bond, with the plural, flexible, fluidity, and subversive meanings towards heterosexual bond. With enlightening and liberating force in the life of the two lovers, Anthea and Robin, that they can have their life of their own way with the freedom of physicality and sexuality by breaking the line of heterosexist society creates a conscious reaction to the negative and resigned view of lesbian love. The celebration of homosexuality through the revolutionary characters creates a new taste for the readers in the society both „questioning‟ and „troubling‟ the dominant narrative of heterosexuality. The successful portrayal of the sexual minorities, with the disproved myth about queer and their sexual behavior proves shifting notion of sexuality because of awareness of gender biasness with the light of sexuality as a social constructivism, it proves that the identity with which we are born would be the same to which we will take to the grave is not the same at all.
