modern integrated circuits consist of millions of standard cells and routing paths. in nano-scale designs, mis-prediction is a dominant problem that may diminish the quality of physical design algorithms or even result in the disruption of the convergence of the design cycle. in this paper, a new planning methodology is presented in which a master-plan of the chip is constructed at the early le...

Installation of Shunt Capacitor Banks (SCBs) and Voltage Regulators (VRs) within distribution system is one the most effective solutions in reactive power control for improving voltage profile reducing losses along feeder. However, presence VRs can deteriorate Stability Margin (VSM) feeders. To address this issue, paper proposes a multi-objective programming model simultaneous optimal allocatio...

This paper focused on the development of capacitor voltage balancing methods in a flying capacitor multilevel inverter (FCMLI) fed induction motor drive. For improving the performance of flying capacitor multilevel inverter, a switching pattern selection scheme is implemented. The proposed method has been designed a seven-level flying capacitor multilevel inverter by using sinusoidal pulse widt...

This paper shows that a highly deformable capacitor made of a soft dielectric and two conformal electrodes can switch between two states discontinuously, by a first-order transition, as the total charge varies gradually. When the total charge is small, it spreads evenly over the area of the capacitor, and the capacitor deforms homogeneously. When the total charge is large, it localizes in a sma...

For improve the performance of flying capacitor multilevel inverter to implement a switching pattern selection scheme. This reduces capacitor voltage fluctuation without using voltage feedback and RLC Filter circuits connected in parallel with...

The passive power distribution networks are prone to imperfect voltage profile and higher losses, especially at the far end of long feeders. capacitor placement is studied in this article using a novel Mine Blast Algorithm (MBA). improvement reduction net annual cost also considered along with minimizing loss. optimization problem formulated solved two steps. Firstly, Voltage Stability Index (V...

A method to eliminate the effect of capacitor mismatch for a switched-capacitor DAC is described. The method consists of two elements. The first element is the use of a compensating switching algorithm, which can eliminate the effect of capacitor mismatch only for some digital input values. The second element is that each digital word is written as the sum of two other words for which the capac...

Shunt capacitive compensation is one of the techniques used to improve the voltage profile of the system and reduce active power loss. In this paper Index Vector method is implemented for optimal capacitor placement on three phase unbalanced radial distribution system. Mutual inductance between the phases is taken into consideration for obtaining load flow solution of unbalanced distribution sy...

BACKGROUND Phase-2 voltage and maximum pulse width are dependent on phase-1 pulse characteristics in a single-capacitor biphasic waveform. The use of 2 separate output capacitors avoids these limitations and may allow waveforms with lower defibrillation thresholds. A previous report also suggested that the optimal tilt may be >70%. This study was designed to determine an optimal biphasic wavefo...
