phase sensitive detector described here has two principal applications: a- to produce a d.c out put proportional to- the amplitude of an incoming a,c signal and indicate, by the outut polarity, the phase of the signal with respect to an internal reference. b- to detect the presence of a signal of known phase and frequency which would otherwise be lost in «background noise» and to measure its am...

To better understand and control the crystallization of different polymorphs, a comprehensive crystal structure analysis was conducted by using fluralaner as model compound, thermodynamic stability, phase transformation, selective nucleation mechanisms were studied. Various analytical techniques such powder X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis, FT-IR spectra used to comprehensively characterize ...

This paper presents a novel formation control method for a large number of robots or vehicles described by Euler-Lagrange (EL) systems moving in elliptical orbits. A new coordinate transformation method for phase synchronization of networked EL systems in elliptical trajectories is introduced to define desired formation patterns. The proposed phase synchronization controller synchronizes the mo...

The stability issue of a single-phase two-stage grid-connected photovoltaic system is complicated due to the nonlinear v-i characteristic of the photovoltaic array as well as the interaction between power converters. Besides, even though linear system theory is widely used in stability analysis of balanced three-phase systems, the application of the same theory to single-phase systems meets ser...

Although solid Au is usually most stable as a face-centered cubic (fcc) structure, pure hexagonal close-packed (hcp) Au has been successfully fabricated recently. However, the phase stability and mechanical property of this new material are unclear, which may restrict its further applications. Here we present the evidence that hcp → fcc phase transformation can proceed easily in Au by first-pri...
