In this paper, a hysteresis current control technique for a single-phase five-level inverter with cascaded H-bridge topology is proposed. The basic study to implement the logic for correct voltage-level selection, various schemes available in the literature have been described and will provide a useful framework and point of reference for the future development of hysteresis modulation for mult...

Nonlinearity and hysteresis effects of electrostatically activated, voltage driven resonant microbridges have been studied theoretically and experimentally. It is shown, that, in order to avoid vibration instability and hysteresis to occur, the choices of the ax . and d.c. driving voltages and of the quality factor of a resonator, with a given geometry and choice of materials, are limited by a ...

In recent years a large theoretical and empirical literature has emerged on hysteresis in unemployment. This paper reviews the theoretical part of this literature, including the various insider-outsider models that have been advanced to explain hysteresis. The review finds that while the assumptions required to generate full hysteresis are somewhat extreme, a less severe form of hysteresis, cal...

A parallel algorithm for finding Ramsey numbers is presented where analog/digital CMOS circuits for the hysteresis McCulloch-Pitts binary neuron are described. The hysteresis McCulloch-Pitts binary neuron model is used in order to suppress the oscillatory behaviors of neural dynamics so that the convergence time is shortened. The proposed algorithm using the hysteresis McCultoch-Pitts binary ne...

Hysteresis effect on unemployment is a much discussed topic in macroeconomics. However, empirical findings regarding the existence of hysteresis effect are contradictory. The present study investigates hysteresis in the unemployment rates of the Visegrad Group countries, namely: the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia. For this purpose it employs the following three econometric methods...

The hysteresis area as a function of frequency of the time-varying external electric field—hysteresis dispersion—for ferroelectric Pb~Zr0.52Ti0.48!O3 is measured, and the Monte-Carlo simulation on the hysteresis dispersion for a model ferroelectric lattice is performed too. We demonstrate the scaling behavior of the single-peaked hysteresis dispersion for the two ferroelectric systems, predicti...

Based on the core hysteresis features, the RTD-fluxgate core, while working, is repeatedly saturated with excitation field. When the fluxgate simulates, the accurate characteristic model of the core may provide a precise simulation result. As the shape of the ideal hysteresis loop model is fixed, it cannot accurately reflect the actual dynamic changing rules of the hysteresis loop. In order to ...

The inherent hysteresis in a pneumatic artificial muscle (PAM) makes it difficult to control accurately the position of the PAM’s end effector. This hysteresis causes energy loss and the area of the hysteresis loop is dependent on the amplitude of the motion and on the underlying causes of the hysteresis phenomenon. This means that if the hysteresis energy loss is properly compensated, a more a...

Smart actuators, such as shape memory alloy (SMA) and magnetostrictive actuators, exhibit saturation nonlinearity and hysteresis that may be symmetric or asymmetric. The Prandtl–Ishlinskii model employing classical play operators has been used to describe the hysteresis properties of smart actuators that are symmetric in nature. In this study, the application of a generalized play operator capa...

Ice-binding proteins (IBPs) assist in subzero tolerance of multiple cold-tolerant organisms: animals, plants, fungi, bacteria etc. IBPs include: (1) antifreeze proteins (AFPs) with high thermal hysteresis antifreeze activity; (2) low thermal hysteresis IBPs; and (3) ice-nucleating proteins (INPs). Several structurally different IBPs have evolved, even within related taxa. Proteins that produce ...
