In this paper, we report numerical calculations of two new travelling wave states with shift and reflect two-fold azimuthal symmetry (S2 symmetry of Wedin and Kerswell (2004)), characterized by a shrinking core towards the pipe center with increasing R. Further, one of these solutions, termed C2, has additional shift and rotate symmetry. We also present arguments to identify all possible scalin...

Multilayering microelectrode techniques have been developed to construct large-area travelling-wave dielectrophoresis (TWD) separators. Novel electrode designs have enabled arrays with up to 25 000 electrodes to be constructed. The separation capacity of a 1000 electrode (20 mm) array has been demonstrated by separating components of whole blood. The development of sophisticated bio-particle se...

Microstrip antennas are one of the most widely used types of antennas in the microwave frequency range, and they are often used in the millimeter-wave frequency range. Actually as the demand for high data rates grows and microwave frequency bands become congested, the millimeter-wave spectrum is becoming increasingly attractive for emerging wireless applications. The abundance of bandwidth and ...

We study a theoretical model of drug release from planar matrix. A mathematical model of the drug dissolution and release processes was formulated and investigated numerically in terms of two coupled nonlinear partial differential equations by Göran Frenning (2003). Disregarding drug adsorption, assuming concentration-independent diffusion coefficients, using perfect sink conditions, and specia...

A transimpedance amplifier (TIA) is designed based on the first order wave equation. The feedback resistance is set as the ohJective function for transimpedance. The main feedback amplifier provides transimpedance and a wide band compensation amplifier determines the characteristics of overall TIA. The stability of lhe T lA is not affected due to the open loop nature of compensation. Simulation...

In this work the Melnikov method for perturbed Hamiltonian wave equations is considered in order to determine possible chaotic behaviour in the systems. The backbone of the analysis is the multi-symplectic formulation of the unperturbed PDE and its further reduction to travelling waves. In the multi-symplectic approach two separate symplectic operators are introduced for the spatial and tempora...

This work extends previous research on numerical solution of nonlinear systems in musical acoustics to the realm of nonlinear musical circuits. Wave digital principles and nonlinear state-space simulators provide two alternative approaches explored in this work. These methods are used to simulate voltage amplification stages typically used in guitar distortion or amplifier circuits. Block level...

Abstract. This paper gives a review of research activities at the Institute for Power Electronics and Electrical Drives in Paderborn to the control of rotary travelling wave type ultrasonic motors. Based on a special designed hardware environment an advanced control scheme for inverter-fed travelling wave type ultrasonic motors is presented. After several modelling steps, including an averaged ...
