Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVector Control of a Variable Reluctance Machine Stator and Rotor Discs ImbricatesAbdelhamid BoucettaThis study was devoted, in its first part, to the configuration and the modelling of the Imbricate Discs Variable Reluctance Machine (IDVRM), which was simplified with the assumption of stator structure alike to that of the synchronous machine, leading to the possibility of using the PARK's transformation. Then, a vector control strategy, which maintains a constant saturation level in the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,401 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance 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 · 6,810 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThree-Phase Shunt Active Power FilterMoleykutty George, Kartik Prasad BasuActive power filters have been widely used for harmonic elimination. The performance of a conventional three-phase shunt Active Power Filter (APF) using Synchronous Detection Method (SDM) has been compared with Nonlinear Autoregressive-Moving Average (NARMA)-L2 based APF. The novelty of this study lies in the application of NARMA-L2 control to generate the amplitude of the reference supply current required by the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,306 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Low Frequencies on Three Phase Induction Motor Performance Operating in Close Proximity to Rated SpeedQazem Jaber, Qais Naman, Mahdi ShamaseenVariable speed drives (VSD) are adhered to induction motors in most of the present industrial applications. And since the world has become more conscientious to energy saving, inverters established them selves in domestic buildings and industry. Square wave inverters generate dominant harmonics of the 5th, 7th, 11th and 13th order. Inverters based on PWM strategy produce much higher harmonic order … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 7,516 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeterministic Timed AFA: A New Class of Timed Alternating Finite AutomataAbdelaziz Fellah, Zachary Friggstad, Soufiane NoureddineTimed Alternating Finite Automata (TAFA), a natural generalization of Timed Finite Automata (TFA), are synchronous and powerful models for real-time computations. They become an effective and expressive model for developing embedded systems with real-time constraint computations which are required in many applications. We introduce Deterministic Timed Alternating Finite Automata (DTAFA), a new class of timed alternating finite automata, extended with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 7,499 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMPLS over Segmented WDM Optical Packet Switching NetworksHakim Mellah, Fouad M. AbbouWavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) is a promising solution for data transport in future all-optical wide area networks. Such networks consist of fibers joined by dynamically controllable cross-connects which provide purely optical transport between pairs of network access stations. Optical packet switching (OPS) is optical switching with the finest granularity. Incoming packets are switched all-optically without being converted to electrical signal. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 6,750 accessesView PDFCite
