Abstract Rainfall prediction becomes popular in real time environment due to the developments of recent technologies. Accurate and fast rainfall predictive models can be designed by the use of machine learning (ML), statistical models, etc. Besides, feature selection approaches can be derived for eliminating the curse of dimensionality problems. In this aspect, this paper presents a novel chaotic spider money optimization with optimal kernel ridge regression (CSMO-OKRR) model for accurate rainfall prediction. The goal of the CSMO-OKRR technique is to properly predict the rainfall using the weather data. The proposed CSMO-OKRR technique encompasses three major processes More >

Abstract The objective of the study is to find the tolerance on vane pitch dimensions of a Vertical Turbine (VT) pump impeller. For this purpose, the study is divided into two parts viz. to find the critical hydraulic eccentricity of a VT pump impeller by way of numerical simulations and design of experiments to find the vane pitch tolerance using critical hydraulic eccentricity. The effect of impeller vane pitch deviations on hydraulic unbalance is examined for a vertical turbine pump using Design of Experiments (DOE). A suitable orthogonal matrix has been selected with vane pitch at More >
