The design of new optimal nonlinear voltage regulator for power systems is considered. In the proposed approach, the Hamilto-Jacobi-Belman (HJB), a partial differential equation, is solved using Taylor series expansion of its nonlinear terms. The performance of the proposed controller in a single-machine infinite-bus power system is simulated and the advantages of the nonlinear feedback control...

A simple neuro-controlle r for a synchronous generator is presented in this paper. The controller performs the function of the terminal voltage control. By representing the proposed neuro-controller in s-domain, its parameters to ensure system stability can be obtained analytically. Results of simulation studies on a non-linear seventh order generator model with the neuro-controller using calcu...

The main aim of this project is to design and simulate a Predictive Current Control of an Induction Machine fed by a twolevel Voltage Source Inverter using MATLAB/Simulink. A predictive current technique is used where a voltage vector with different switching states is used and the value which provides a reduced quality function is selected. The current error in the next sampling time is found ...

In hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), the power network takes an ever-important role, which functions to adjust the engine operating region for less emissions, to incorporate the electric machine for higher overall efficiency, and to feed the increasing demand of electric loads with different voltage levels. Furthermore, more and more mechanically, pneumatically or hydraulically driven systems ar...

Dynamic voltage and frequency scaling has been identified as one of the most effective ways to reduce power dissipation. This paper discusses a compilation strategy that identifies opportunities for dynamic voltage and frequency scaling of the CPU without significant increase in overall program execution time. The paper introduces a simple, yet effective performance model to determine an effici...

In this paper, the new approach for identification of synchronous generator using nonlinear feedback model and with piecewise linear map is investigated. In this method, synchronous generator model consists of a linear-dynamic block in forward path and a nonlinear-static block in feedback path. The identification method simultaneously approximates these blocks without requiring prior assumption...

In this study, two parameters of surface roughness and volumetric material removal rate are optimized based on computational intelligence method. Wire electrical discharge machine is used for machining of cold-work steel 2601. The relation between Input parameters including electrical current, pulse-off time, open-circuit voltage and gap voltage and output parameters is studied via Experimental...

This paper describes the transient behaviour of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) driven by wind turbine after its disconnection from the grid. The induction machine runs at a specific speed with the stator disconnected from the grid (Is=0), the rotor is suddenly excited with slip-frequency voltages derived from voltage regulators so as to produce commended open-circuit stator terminal vo...

This work aims at the design of a roped elevator prototype, which uses a linear induction motor (LIM) as a traction machine. It is also concerned with the development of a specific inverter to feed the linear motor that allows several ways to drive the elevator through a suitable choice of the RMS voltage levels, angular phase displacement and electrical frequency of the output voltage. The res...

Background: People occasionally undergo medical diagnostic X-ray examinations and expose their red blood cells to radiation. Radiation that is generated from medical diagnostic X-ray machines is widely used in medical diagnoses. One of the important parameters is kilo-voltage (kV) that is applied across the X-ray tube in medical diagnostic X-ray machines. Kilo-voltage influences the radiation d...
