Multilevel voltage-fed inverters with space vector pulse width modulation have established their importance in high power high performance industrial drive applications. The paper proposes an overmodulation strategy of space vector PWM of a three-level inverter with linear transfer characteristic that easily extends from the undermodulation strategy previously developed by the authors for neura...

selective harmonic elimination (she) is a powerful modulation scheme aims to find the required switching angles in order to eliminate the number of undesired harmonics. she is a complicated problem which consists of several nonlinear equations which have multiple local minima. in order to eliminate the higher number of undesired harmonics and as a result reducing the total harmonic distortion (...

background over the past years, the malaria elimination program has considerably decreased the malaria indigenous cases and confined their incidence to the southeastern areas of iran encompassing 28 less developed counties with favorable transmission conditions. objectives the aim of the study was to investigate the effects of climatic and socioeconomic indicators on malaria transmission and to...

In this paper, a new method is proposed for the speed control of a three-phase current forced synchronous machine drive. This metohd is based on the use of an approximate constant commutation safety margin angle in the output thyristor bridge of the drive system as well as on the compenastion of stator magnetization reaction. The commutation process in the output converter of the machine driv...

This paper proposes a single-phase five-level inverter with a modified pulse width-modulated (PWM)control scheme. The modified pulse width-modulation technique is developed to reduce switching loss.Also, the proposed multilevel inverter can reduce the requirement of power switches compared to aconventional cascaded multilevel inverter. The modes of operation, control signals, and operatingprinc...

In this paper, using a personal computer (PC), the practical implementation of scalar and vector control methods on a three–phase rotor surface- type permanent magnet synchronous machine drive is discussed. Based on the machine dynamic equations and the above control strategies, two block diagrams are presented first for closed-loop speed controlling of the machine drive/system. Then, the desig...

in this paper, the finite element analysis of stability problem of vehicle composite drive shafts subjected to torsional loading is studied. first, using the minimum total potential energy principle, the governing equations are derived and then they are solved by finite element method. the initial geometrical imperfection which is usually in the form of radial displacement, is taken into consid...

This paper presents a review and analysis of multilevel inverter topologies. Multilevel inverters are most widely used for medium-voltage high-power converter like fans, pumps and material transport drives. In this active area, different inverter topologies, circuits, advantages and drawbacks are discussed. Multilevel Inverter topologies such as diode-clamped, flyingcapacitor, cascaded H-bridge...
