Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Generators (PMSGs) exhibit high efficiency and power density, and have already been employed in gearless wind turbines. In the gearless wind turbines, due to the removal of the gearbox, the cogging torque is an important issue. Therefore, in this paper, at first, design of a Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Generator for a 2MW gearless horizontal-axis wind turbine, acco...

background and aims. the aim of this study was to assess the opening torque of grooved and non-grooved screws made of shape memory alloys (sma) for fixation of mandibular fractures. materials and methods. in this in vitro study the opening torques of ten sma screws with grooves and ten sma screws without grooves were compared in 20 holes (10 holes for grooved screws and 10 holes for non-grooved...

The purpose of our investigation was to compare, for the hamstring and quadriceps femoris muscles, peak torque values uncorrected for gravity with the peak torque values corrected for gravity and to determine the effect of making this correction on the hamstring to quadriceps femoris muscle peak torque ratio at slow and fast isokinetic speeds. We measured peak torques isokinetically at 60 degre...

BACKGROUND Lower extremity torque steadiness has been shown to be an independent predictor of functional performance in older women. Hip muscle function is crucial for many types of activities of daily living, yet existing studies investigating torque steadiness for lower extremities are limited to assessing steadiness at the knee and ankle. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to compare ...

In order to improve the reliability and braking torque of aircraft electric braking system, this paper selected switched reluctance motor (SRM) as drive motor of electromechanical actuator, static torque data of SRM calculated by finite element analysis were used as training samples, then characteristics of torque-angle were obtained off-line by Generalized Regression Neural Network with partic...

In this paper modelling and analysis of the SRM torque characteristics including torque ripples are described. Optimal control strategy based on genetic algorithm (GA) to minimize torque ripple is proposed. The optimization criteria depend on choosing the exact current profile based on the optimal excitation parameters which govern the torque shape. The model and control are carried out on high...

The purpose of this investigation was to describe and examine variations in maximal torque produced by knee extension, knee flexion, elbow extension, and elbow flexion through a range of joint motion. Subjects were young, healthy men (n = 16) and women (n = 15). Torque was measured isometrically and isokinetically using a modified Cybex apparatus. Isotonic torque was calculated from a one-repet...

ABSTRACT GW Ori is a hierarchical triple star system with misaligned circumtriple protoplanetary disc. Recent Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array observations have identified three dust rings prominent gap at $100\, \rm au$ and misalignments between each of the rings. A break in gas disc may be driven by torque from either or planet that massive enough to carve Once broken, nodally pre...

abstract: a continuously variable transmission (cvt) is a transmission which may change step less by way of an infinite variety of effective gear ratios between maximum and minimum values. this contrasts with different mechanical transmissions that solely permit just a few different distinct gear ratios to be selected. continuously variable transmissions (cvts) are mechanical devices that allow...
