ABSTRACT With high solar radiation across Nigeria, solar power system can become a viable solution to the Nigeria's electricity power crisis if the problem of high capital cost of solar power supply system can be addressed. In this study the use of demand management based design approach has been explored for reducing the capital cost of residential solar power supply system. Utilities and energy demands of thirty randomly picked homes in selected residential areas were studied The houses wer...
ABSTRACT In this study an attempt is made to use the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model predict the Mean Time between Failures of manufacturing equipment. The equipment failure pattern was carefully studied and some key factors affecting the Mean Time between Failures were identified. An Artificial Neural Network model, the Multi-Layer perceptron, with two hidden layers and seven processing elements was built. Twelve months of maintenance data of the machine was collected. The data items w...
