چکیده

A Distortion Contribution Analysis (DCA) obtains the distortion at the output of an analog electronic circuit as a sum of distortion contributions of its sub-circuits. Similar to a noise analysis, a DCA helps a designer to pinpoint the actual source of the distortion. Classically, the DCA uses the Volterra theory to model the circuit and its sub-circuits. This DCA has been proven useful for small circuits or heavily simplified examples. In more complex circuits however, the amount of contributions increases quickly, making the interpretation of the results difficult. In this paper, the Best Linear Approximation (BLA) is used to perform the DCA instead. The BLA represents the behaviour of a sub-circuit as a linear circuit with the unmodelled distortion represented by a noise source. Combining the BLA with a classic noise analysis yields a DCA that is simple to understand, yet capable to handle complex excitation signals and complex strongly non-linear circuits.

BEST APPROXIMATION SETS IN -n-NORMED SPACE CORRESPONDING TO INTUITIONISTIC FUZZY n-NORMED LINEAR SPACE

The aim of this paper is to present the new and interesting notionof ascending family of  $alpha $−n-norms corresponding to an intuitionistic fuzzy nnormedlinear space. The notion of best aproximation sets in an  $alpha $−n-normedspace corresponding to an intuitionistic fuzzy n-normed linear space is alsodefined and several related results are obtained.

Income taxation and production eÆciency in a simple two - sector economy

In a recent contribution, H. Naito (1999) has shown that production efciency may be violated in the optimum with non-linear income taxation. Using a slightly simpler framework, this paper complements Naito's analysis in showing that production e ciency does not hold in the optimum with (i) non-linear and (ii) linear income taxation provided that second best and rst best do not coincide. These n...

A New Procedure for Determining Current Harmonic Contribution around an Operation Point at PCC Using Load Modelling Based on Crossed Frequency Admittance Matrix

Abstract:Today, one of the important issues of power quality (PQ) in power systems is the current harmonics. Increasing expansion of nonlinear loads at different parts of the electric network makes harmonic distortion flow through the network. This causes the network to have background voltage and current harmonic distortion and even affect on the PQ of linear load performance. Therefore, it is...

Best Coapproximation in Quotient Spaces

As a counterpart to best approximation, a new kind of approximation, called best coapproximation was introduced in normed linear spaces by C. Franchetti and M. Furi. In this paper, we use this coapproximation to prove some results on the existence and uniqueness of best coapproximation in quotient spaces when the underlying spaces are metric linear spaces. We shall also see how coproximinality ...

Investigating the Effect of Joint Geometry of the Gas Tungsten Arc Welding Process on the Residual Stress and Distortion using the Finite Element Method

Although a few models have been proposed for 3D simulation of different welding processes, 2D models are still more effective in design goals, thus more popular due to the short-time analysis. In this research, replacing "time" by the "third dimension of place", the gas tungsten arc welding process was simulated by the finite element method in two dimensions and in a short time with acceptable ...
