Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNumerical Prediction Model for Temperature Distributions in Concrete at Early AgesWondwosen Ali, Girum UrgessaA finite element-finite difference numerical model is developed for predicting non-uniform temperature development in hydrating concrete with respect to time and space. The results obtained from this model can be used by structural and construction engineers to predict critical thermal stresses induced due to differential temperatures between the core and the surface of the concrete at early ages and between … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 2 Jan 2013 · 7,358 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSimulation and Implementation of Quasi Resonant DC-DC ConverterP. Parvathy, N. DevarajanProblem statement: A half-bridge LLC resonant converter with a voltage doubler rectifier has a simple structure and its Zero-Voltage-Switching (ZVS) capability is excellent from zero to full load condition. But conduction loss is more due to high circulating energy thus reducing the system efficiency. Moreover a variable frequency control method makes the control circuits more complicated than those using the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 29 Aug 2012 · 7,151 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSimplified Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Permanent Magnet Brushless Direct Current Motors for Sensorless OperationE. Kaliappan, C. ChellamuthuProblem statement: In this study, a simplified modeling and experimental analysis of Permanent Magnet Brushless DC (PMBLDC) motors for Sensorless operation using MATLAB/SIMULINK. This model provides a mechanism for monitoring and controlling the voltage, current, speed and torque response. Approach: BLDC motor is modeled as sub-blocks. The inverter and switching function are implemented as S-function builder block. The Sensorless scheme … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 16 May 2012 · 7,648 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDesign and Simulation of a Soft Switched Dc Boost Converter for Switched Reluctance MotorX. Felix Joseph, S. Pushpa KumarProblem statement: This study presents the design and simulation of a soft switched boost converter for a switched reluctance motor with a closed loop controller. A soft switching scheme is proposed in the converter with minimum components, which reduces the switching loss and stress across the switch so that the harmonic generation is reduced in the output. The switch used … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 2 Feb 2012 · 7,179 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNew Family of Exact Soliton Solutions for the Nonlinear Three-Wave Interaction EquationsSahar M. Alqaraleh, Adeeb G. TalafhaProblem statement: To obtain new exact traveling wave soliton solutions for the threewave interaction equation in a dispersive medium and a non zero phase mismatch. Approach: The tanh method is usually used to find a traveling wave analytic soliton solutions for one nonlinear wave and evolution partial differential equation. Here, we generalize this method to solve a system of nonlinear … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 7,433 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPerformance Comparison of Three-Phase Shunt Active Power Filter AlgorithmsMoleykutty George, Kartik Prasad BasuThe usage of parallel converters is ever increasing. However, the voltage and current harmonics, zero-sequence and negative- sequence components of voltage and current and reactive power present in parallel converters give an alarming signal to power system and power electronic engineers. This research discusses performance of three-phase shunt active power filter (APF) system using three different control techniques namely synchronous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,814 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPerformance Assessment and Monitoring of a Permeable Reactive Barrier for the Remediation of a Contaminated SiteValerio Zolla, Rajandrea Sethi, Antonio Di MolfettaThe present study illustrates the long-term monitoring plan carried out in order to investigate the performance of a zero-valent iron permeable reactive barrier (PRB) at a chlorinated solvents’ site. The cleanup intervention has been undertaken at an industrial landfill located near the city of Turin (Italy) and represents the first full-scale application of this technology in Italy. The monitoring plan … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,446 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOptimization of the Correcting Gains of Fractional Order Hold Devices for Inter-sample Output ReconstructionM. D.L. Sen, A. BilbaoThe design of Fractional Order Holds (FROH) of correcting gains β ∈ [-1, 1] (potentially and possibly including zero-order holds, ZOH with β = 0, and firelation holds, FROH relating) is discussed related to achieving output deviations being close with respect to its sampled values. A squared error time- integral between the current output and its sampled values is minimized … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 7,028 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOn Fractional Hold Devices Versus Positive Realness of Discrete Transfer FunctionsM. de la Sen, A. Bilbao- GuillernaThe appropriate use of fractional order holds (β-FROH) of correcting gains βε[-1,1] as an alternative to the classical zero and first order -holds (ZOH, FOH) is discussed related to the positive realness of the associate discrete transfer functions obtained from a given continuous transfer function. It is proved that the minimum direct input-output gain (i.e. the quotient of the leading … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,194 accessesView PDFCite
