This paper deals with permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) based wind energy conversion system (WECS) integrated with grid with two back to back connected converters with a common DC link. The aim of this research is to model control of direct driven 1.5 MW wind turbine permanent magnetic synchronous generator (PMSG) which feeds alternating current (AC) power to the utility grid .The m...

The ability of the human visual system to recognize partially occluded objects is a striking feat, which has received extensive psychophysical documentation. Here we studied the manifestation of completion effects in the functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) activation of high-order object areas (the lateral occipital complex - LOC). Subjects were presented with three types of images: (i...

A Non-uniform Grid (NG) algorithm for rapidly computing magnetostatic field for micromagnetic simulations is described. The algorithm relies on spatial NG representation of the potential from the source boxes and local interpolation. Multi-level implementations of the algorithm result in a linear computational complexity with respect to the number of effective magnetic charges and observers. Th...

Grids offer powerful infrastructures and promising concepts for the development and deployment of advanced applications in medical research and healthcare. The construction of HealthGrids in practice, however, is challenging due to reasons of scientific, technical, and cultural nature, among them the large gap between communities that develop and use the technology. Whereas grid developments fo...

decoders are presented. They are applied to codes with parity-check matrices generated either randomly or using geometric properties of elements in Galois fields. Both decoding schedules have low computational requirements. The original concurrent decoding schedule has a large storage requirement that is dependent on the total number of edges in the underlying bipartite graph, while a new, stag...

In the paper, the parallelization of multi-grid methods for solving second-order elliptic boundary value problems in two-dimensional domains is discussed. The parallelization strategy is based on a non-overlapping domain decomposition data structure such that the algorithm is well-suited for an implementation on a parallel machine with MIMD architecture. For getting an algorithm with a good par...

Investigations into the shape and volume of transtibial prosthetic sockets are complicated because of the difficulty in establishing an accurate reference grid. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) presents a possible solution to this problem. However, the reliability of MRI in defining the residual-limb/cast interface depends on the scanned image not being distorted by the materials present. We in...

INTRODUCTION Surgically implanted chambers with removable grids are routinely used for studying patterns of neuronal activity in primate brains; however, accessing target tissues is significantly constrained by standard grid designs. Typically, grids are configured with a series of guide holes drilled vertically, parallel to the walls of the chamber, thus targeted sites are limited to those in ...

The new version of differential quadrature (DQ) method is extended to analyze the free vibration of thin sector orthotropic plates on the Pasternak elastic foundation with various sector angles and elastic parameters. Detailed formulations are given. Comparisons are made with existing analytical and/or numerical data. Numerical results indicate that convergence can be achieved with increasing i...

Grid connected static power converters inject parasitic DC currents due to the offset in current sensing, control imperfections, asymmetries in power switches and other secondary effects. Ever growing number of grid connected converters contributes to an increase of DC bias in AC grids, and this brings the cores of distribution transformers closer to saturation and increases their power losses....
