nowadays the use of the switched reluctance motors (srms) has been considerably increased in various home and industrial applications. despite of many advantages of this type of motors, such as simple structure, low cost, and high reliability, the main disadvantage of them is the generation of high torque pulsation. this paper presents a novel method to optimize a typical srm such that the torq...

<span>This paper presents an online efficiency optimization method for the interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) drive system in electric vehicle (EV). The proposed considers accurately total losses including fundamental copper and iron losses, harmonic loss, inverter losses. Therefore, it has capability to always guarantee maximum control. A highly trusted machine model is ...

The in vivo maximum voluntary torque-velocity profile for large muscle groups differs from the in vitro tetanic profile with lower than expected eccentric torques. Using sub-maximal transcutaneous electrical stimulation has given torque-velocity profiles with an eccentric torque plateau ∼1.4 times the isometric value. This is closer to, but still less than, the in vitro tetanic profiles with pl...

In automotive powertrain control strategy, engine torque estimators are preferred to expensive sensors for obvious economic reasons. In the literature several works have been presented proposing both instantaneous engine torque and mean engine torque estimators. The first ones are based on complex models and tipically are suitable for diagnosis purposes, while the latter estimate the torque by ...

The paper presents a super-twisting sliding mode (STSM) regulator with neural networks (NN) of direct power command (DPC) for controlling the active/reactive power of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) using a two-level space vector pulse width modulation (2L-SVPWM). Traditional DPC strategy with proportional-integral (PI) controllers (DPC-PI) has significantly more active/reactive power r...

Abstract. This paper addresses the problem of controlling wind energy conversion (WEC) systems involving permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) fed by IGBT-based buck-to-buck rectifier-inverter. The prime control objective is to maximize wind energy extraction which cannot be achieved without letting the wind turbine rotor operate in variable-speed mode. Interestingly, the present study ...

Several thousands of million tons of wastes are generated worldwide every year. Of these, organic solid wastes have the potential to partially satisfy the production of chemicals, whilst the environmental impact can be minimized and the sustainability of the processes increased compared to those based on fossil resources. However, these wastes are complex due to their high heterogeneity, and ne...

OBJECTIVE To determine the unique contribution of geometrical design characteristics of orthodontic mini-implants on maximum insertion torque while controlling for the influence of cortical bone thickness. METHODS Total number of 100 cylindrical orthodontic mini-implants was used. Geometrical design characteristics of ten specimens of ten types of cylindrical self-drilling orthodontic mini-im...
