AC drives are more predominant than dc drives. Ac drives require control of frequency, current and voltage for variable-speed applications. The difference between the traditional vector control and the DTC is that the DTC has no fixed switching pattern. The DTC switches the inverter according to the load needs. Though conventional DTC (CDTC) is simple, easy to implement generates substantial st...

Cancer dormancy refers to the prolonged clinical disease-free time between removal of the primary tumor and recurrence, which is common in prostate cancer (PCa), breast cancer, esophageal cancer, and other cancers. PCa disseminated tumor cells (DTC) are detected in both patients with no evidence of disease (NED) and advanced disease (ADV). However, the molecular and cellular nature of DTC is un...

Received Feb 13, 2017 Revised Apr 17, 2017 Accepted May 1, 2017 A Constant Switching Frequency Direct Torque Control (CSF-DTC) with low switching losses Space Vector modulation (SVM) for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) drive is proposed in this work. The CSF-DTC combines Field Oriented Control (FOC) and basic DTC advantages. Indeed, the proposed control strategy improves the basic DTC...

BACKGROUND Previous studies investigating the association between X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) polymorphisms and thyroid cancer risk have yielded inconsistent results. This meta-analysis was performed to derive a more precise estimation of the relationship between three XRCC1 polymorphisms and thyroid cancer risk. METHODS/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS PubMed and EMBASE database were ...

Induction motor drives using field oriented control (FOC) for torque and flux control have been used in high performance industrial applications instead of dc motors for many years. In FOC, torque and flux of an induction motor can be controlled independently by decoupling the stator current into its orthogonal components. The FOC method has achieved a quick torque response. But in order to ach...

This paper describes the DTC approach for building applications based on markup languages. DTC consistently combines componentware and markup technologies in a unified solution. Building an application according DTC supposes, on one hand, the provision of the set of documents describing the application at a purely declarative level (i.e. content, processes and interaction) and, on the other han...

The micro all-electric vehicle pertaining to this study is rear-driven, with motors in the left and right rear wheels. The motors are brushless dc (BLDC) using Hall effect sensors with a trapezoidal back-electromotive force. The control system is developed by using a digital signal processor. To thoroughly utilize the fast torque generation feature of BLDC motors, direct torque control (DTC) is...

The direct torque control-space vector modulation (DTC-SVM) is well-known for achieving excellent dynamic overmodulation. However, the method uses complicated predictive stator flux vector control and requires high precision stator flux vector to define overmodulation mode. This paper proposes a straightforward dynamic overmodulation method and constant switching frequency controller without SV...

We consider logical deenability of the group-theoretic notions of simplicity, nilpotency and solvability on the class of nite groups. On one hand, we show that these notions are deenable by sentences of deterministic transitive closure logic DTC. These results are based on known group-theoretic results. On the other hand, we prove that simplicity, nilpotency and the normal closure of a subset o...
