Irrational phase synchronization.

Experimental Study of the Irrational Phase Synchronization of Coupled Nonidentical Mechanical Metronomes

It has recently been observed in numerical simulations that the phases of two coupled nonlinear oscillators can become locked into an irrational ratio, exhibiting the phenomenon of irrational phase synchronization (IPS) [Phys. Rev. E 69, 056228 (2004)]. Here, using two coupled nonidentical periodic mechanical metronomes, we revisit this interesting phenomenon through experimental studies. It is...

Real-time Prediction and Synchronization of Business Process Instances using Data and Control Perspective

Nowadays, in a competitive and dynamic environment of businesses, organizations need to moni-tor, analyze and improve business processes with the use of Business Process Management Systems(BPMSs). Management, prediction and time control of events in BPMS is one of the major chal-lenges of this area of research that has attracted lots of researchers. In this paper, we present a...

Investigation of the Effect of Synchronization Techniques on the Stability of Grid-Connected Photovoltaic Systems

Abstract: Due to the increasing use of microgrids, investigation of their stability is of special interest. One of the disadvantages of an inverter-based distribution unit is that at any given time, phase and frequency information at the point of common coupling (PCC) is required that affected the stability. The synchronization techniques include synchronous reference frame phase-locked loop (S...

O-11: Immunoneutralization of Inhibin Alpha Subunit as A Tool for Improving Farm Animal Fertility

Background: The objectives of a series of studies undertaken was to improve farm animal reproductive efficiency in terms of embryo production efficiency, conception rate and litter size by immunoneutralization of inhibin in conjunction with other conventional reproductive techniques. Materials and Methods: A recombinant porcine inhibin alpha-subunit mature peptide was produced by mass scale and...
