Absfracf-We present a study of a matrix pencil method for estimating parameters (frequencies and damping factors) of exponentially damped and/or undamped sinusoids in noise. Comparison of this method to a polynomial method (SVD-Prony method) shows that the matrix pencil method and the polynomial method are two special cases of a matrix prediction approach but the pencil method i s more efficien...

With more renewables integrated into power grids, the systems are being transformed low inertia electronic dominated systems. In this situation, virtual synchronous generator (VSG) control strategy was proposed to deal with insufficient challenge caused by reduction of generation. However, as VSG method emulates dynamic behavior traditional machines, interaction between multiple controllers and...

The mechanical behavior of the heart muscle tissues is the central problem in finite element simulation of the heart contraction, excitation propagation and development of an artificial heart. Nonlinear elastic and viscoelastic passive material properties of the left ventricular papillary muscle of a guinea pig heart were determined based on in-vitro precise uniaxial and relaxation tests. The n...

Breast cancer cells (MCF-7 and MCF-10A) are studied through indentation with spherical borosilicate glass particles in atomic force microscopy (AFM) contact mode in fluid. Their mechanical properties are obtained by analyzing the recorded reaction force-time response. The analysis is based on comparing experimental data with predictions from finite element (FE) simulation. Here, FE modeling is ...

Articular cartilage is a unique substance that protects joints from damage and wear. Many decades of research have led to detailed biphasic and triphasic models for the intricate structure and behavior of cartilage. However, the models contain many assumptions on boundary conditions, permeability, viscosity, model size, loading, etc., that complicate the description of cartilage. For impact stu...

Gravitational decoupling can add hair to the black holes by adding extra sources. The quasinormal modes of hairy hole caused gravitational for massless scalar field, electromagnetic and perturbation are investigated. equations effective potential three perturbations derived in spacetime. We also study time evolution corresponding perturbations, mode frequencies calculated using Prony method thr...

Installing a catalytic converter in the exhaust is typical method of reducing engine emissions. Catalytic converters have been shown to lower pollutants while enhancing performance. The influence number brass catalyst plates (Cu-Zn) on Performance commercial Yamaha Jupiter MX motorcycle manufactured 2007 was investigated this study. installed motorbike exhaust, with varying between 5 and 8, con...
