Traditionally, the sensitivity of electric fish to electric stimuli has been investigated using a variety of electronically generated signal functions, for example sine, square, and sawtooth waves (both continuous and pulsed). None of these resemble the species- or sex-specific electric organ discharges (EODs) of fish. Therefore, EODs recorded on magnetic tape were used in open-loop playback ex...

This paper considers the decentralized turbine-governor control design for the damping of low-frequency, inter-area oscillations in electric power systems. A time-varying model that explains oscillations caused by parametric resonance is employed to design a controller. A robust turbine-governor controller design is presented on the basis of the model. Furthermore, a basic idea for incorporatin...

Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) are driven by two energy convertors, i.e., an Internal Combustion (IC) engine and an electric machine. To make powertrain of HEV as efficient as possible, proper management of the energy elements is essential. This task is completed by HEV controller, which splits power between the IC engine and Electric Motor (EM). In this paper, a Genetic-Fuzzy control strategy...

This study is about the non-uniform electric field for splitting of water in oil emulsion. If the process occurs in an inhomogeneous electrical field, the drops are polarized and then their mobility is increased. The emulsion drops will be charged and move toward the central point of splitter where the maximum intensity of electrical field has been concentrated. In this process, the drops encou...

This paper presents a novel three-dimensional active frequency selective surfaces loading a varactor diode to achieve electrically controllable, by loading different values of paranoid voltage to control the variable capacitance diode. Simulation results show that the structure has excellent resonant characteristics in the range of 3.34GHz-1.59GHz, and has certain sensitivity for the change of ...

Sensitivity of neurons in the torus semicircularis of a weakly electric fish, Gymnarchus niloticus, to two stimulus parameters that are critical for its behavior the jamming avoidance response was examined. The first parameter is the sign of frequency difference between discharge frequencies of fish's own electric organ and that of a neighbor's. The second parameter is the spatial orientation o...
