friction is a nonlinear phenomenon which has destructive effects on performance of control systems. to obviate these effects, friction compensation is an effectual solution. in this paper, an adaptive technique is proposed in order to eliminate limit cycles as one of the undesired behaviors due to presence of friction in control systems which happen frequently. the proposed approach works for n...

in this paper a novel hybrid algorithm for harmonics estimation in power systems is proposed. the estimation of the harmonic components is a nonlinear problem due to the nonlinearity of phase of sinusoids in distorted waveforms. most researchers implemented nonlinear methods to extract the harmonic parameters. however, nonlinear methods for amplitude estimation increase time of convergence. hen...

many real time processes have complex, uncertain and nonlinear dynamics. boilers are nonlinear, time varying, multi-input multi-output (mimo) systems, whose states generally vary with operating conditions. the major problem in controlling that system is that its drum water pressure and steam flow dynamics include an integrator that results a critically stable behavior. conventional controller p...

in this paper, nonlinear equations of motion for laminated composite rectangular plates based on the first order shear deformation theory were derived. using a perturbation method, the nonlinear equation of motion was solved and analytical relations were obtained for natural and nonlinear frequencies. after proving the validity of the obtained analytical relations, as an alternative and simple ...

given a pair (semispray $s$, metric $g$) on a tangent bundle, the family of nonlinear connections $n$ such that $g$ is recurrent with respect to $(s, n)$ with a fixed recurrent factor is determined by using the obata tensors. in particular, we obtain a characterization for a pair $(n, g)$ to be recurrent as well as for the triple $(s, stackrel{c}{n}, g)$ where $stackrel{c}{n}$ is the canonical ...
