Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titlePower Quality Improvement Using a Sliding Mode Control of a Series Active FilterTheerayuth ChatchanayuenyongA sliding mode controller (SMC) for a three-phase series active filter was proposed to compensate voltage unbalances, suppress voltage sags and swells and hence improve the power quality of a three-phase ac system. The voltage unbalance compensation and regulation is only based on the positive sequence component decomposition of the supply voltage that is then adjusted to a rated value … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,584 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSQIMSO: Quality Improvement for Small Software OrganizationsRabih Zeineddine, Nashat MansourSoftware quality improvement process remains incomplete if it is not initiated and conducted through a wide improvement program that considers process quality improvement, product quality improvement and evolution of human resources.
