extension of inter-turn fault in windings of pmsm can damage all parts of electrical systems, and in some cases in sensitive applications may lead to irreparable events. identification of such small faults at incipient steps can be so helpful to protect entire part of electrical system. in this paper, intelligent protection system is designed which is made by two major parts. in the first part ...

the sangbast-shandiz fault zone, with a length of about 57 km, a width of moderately 2 km, and a nw-se direction, is located about 15 km in the west of mashhad city. that is one of the major faults in the binalud mountains. geomorphic evidences illustrate that the sangbast-shandiz fault zone has dextral strike- slip offsets with thrust activity. in this article, we investigated geomorphic featu...

Edge detection and edge enhancement techniques play an essential role in interpreting potential field data. This paper describes the application of various edge detection techniques to gravity data in order to delineate the edges of subsurface structures. The edge detection methods comprise analytic signal, total horizontal derivative (THDR), theta angle, tilt angle, hyperbolic of tilt angle (H...

Abstract Health condition monitoring of induction motors is important because their vital role and wide us in a variety industries. A stator inter-turn fault (SITF) considered to be the most common electrical failure according statistical studies. In this paper, an algorithm for detection SITF presented. It based on one blind source separation techniques called principal component analysis (PCA...

Modular multilevel converter (MMC) is a key device of high-voltage-direct circuit (HVDC) transmission system, the sub-module detection technology which will directly influence damage severity, and even reliability whole system. In this paper, open-circuit fault characteristics an insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) in are analyzed, fault-tolerant optimal control strategy proposed for redun...

an attempt has been made to explore the general trends in the seismic response of planasymmetric structures when subjected to near-fault and far-fault ground motions. systems with structural wall elements in both orthogonal directions considering actual and common nonlinear behavior under bi-directional excitation were studied. idealized single-storey models with uni-axial eccentricity were emp...

fault zones and fault-related fracture systems control the mechanical behaviors and fluid-flow properties of the earth’s crust. furthermore, nowadays, modeling is being increasingly used in order to understand the behavior of rock masses, and to determine their characteristics. in this work, fault zones and fracture patterns are reviewed, and also comprehensive studies are carried out on the fr...

A design methodology for on-line testing analog linear fully differential (FD) circuits is presented in this work. The test strategy is based on concurrently monitoring via an analog checker the common mode (CM) at the inputs of all amplifiers. The totally self-checking (TSC) goal is achieved for linear FD implementations provided that the checker CM threshold is small enough with respect to th...

a new fault tolerant controller (ftc) has been presented in this research by integrating a fault detection and diagnosis (fdd) mechanism in a nonlinear model predictive controller framework. the proposed fdd utilizes a multi-sensor data fusion (msdf) methodology to enhance its reliability and estimation accuracy. an augmented state-vector model is developed to incorporate the occurred sensor fa...
