Density Current is formed when a fluid with heavier density than the surrounding fluid flows down an inclined bed. These types of flows are common in nature and can be produced by; salinity, temperature inhomogeneities, or suspended particles of silt and clay. Driven by the density difference between inflow and clear water in reservoirs, density current plunges clear water and moves towards a d...

A method of the design an adaptive balancing reactive compensator in four-wire systems with linear loads and nonsinusoidal voltage is described this article. The compensation founded on Currents’ Physical Components (CPC) – based power theory three-phase voltages currents. built two sub-compensators Y  structure, respectively. reduces current zero sequence symmetrical component unbalanced curr...

Introduction: Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are pluripotent cells that can proliferate and differentiate to many cell types. Their electrophysiological properties have not yet been chracterzed. In this study, the passive properties (such as resting membrane potential, input resistance and capacitance) and the contribution of delayed rectifier K+ channel currents to the membrane conducta...

This paper deals with Enhanced Phase Locked Loop Control scheme for Distributed Static Compensator (DSTATCOM) in the distribution system. The proposed control scheme based DSTATCOM eliminates current harmonics, maintains unity power factor at source, zero voltage regulation and load balancing. The Enhanced Phase Locked Loop (EPLL) Control scheme is based on Digital Signal Processing (DSP) which...

In this paper, a full-bridge boost power converter topology is studied for power factor control, using output higher order sliding mode control. The AC/DC converters are used for charging the battery and super-capacitor in hybrid electric vehicles from the utility. The proposed control forces the input currents to track the desired values, which can controls the output voltage while keeping the...

This paper presents the three – level neutral point diode clamped inverter is used in a distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM), making use of the multi-level inverter advantages of low harmonics distortion and reduced switching losses. The pulse width modulation (PWM) inverter is employed as DSTATCOM compensating reactive power and eliminates the harmonics drawn from a non-linear load. A fu...

The Shunt active power filters are used in power systems for the compensation of harmonic currents generated for non linear loads. A reference current estimation method for control of SAPF using a digital filter based synchronous reference frame theory is presented. To extract the fundamental component of source current, the synchronous reference frame (SRF) theory is suitable because of its ea...

An on-line tap-changing circuit was developed for use with low voltage transformers (10 kV/380 V, or equivalent), in which the tap positions could be set independently for each low voltage feeder. This allows for possible variation in loads and distributed generation between different feeders fed from a given transformer, allowing the line voltages to be kept within limits on all feeders. A com...

This paper explores means of controlling the dynamics of the stator currents of an induction motor. A neural-network-based identification and control scheme is presented. A single artificial neural network is trained to capture the nonlinear dynamics of the motor. A control law is derived using the dynamics captured by the network, and employed to force the stator currents to follow prescribed ...
