This paper presents a distance protection test procedure by applying the Real-Time Digital Simulator (RTDS) of a power system. RTDS is a tool to design, develop, and test power-system protection. The RTDS enables real-time computation of electromagnetic phenomena with a calculation time step of even 50μs. The hardware allows the import and export of many signals from the simulator to an ext...

recovery of used products is receiving much attention recently due to growing environmental concerns.in this paper, we address the carbon footprint basedon problem arising in closed-loop supply chain where returned products are collected from customers. these returned products can either be disposed or be remanufactured to be sold as new ones again. here, we formulate a comprehensive closed-loo...

This paper is concerned with the problem of designing discrete-time control systems with closed-loop eigenvalues in a prescribed region of stability. First, we obtain a state feedback matrix which assigns all the eigenvalues to zero, and then by elementary similarity operations we find a state feedback which assigns the eigenvalues inside a circle with center   and radius. This new algorithm ca...

high-precision three-axis attitude control scheme is vitally important to deal with the overactuated spacecraft, as long as the overall performance through rapid response can be in general acquired. due to the fact that the rigid-flexible spacecraft is somehow applicable, in so many academic and real environments, there is a consensus among experts of this field that the new insights in develop...

remanufacturing is an industrial process that makes used products reusable. remanufacturing is a way to establish a closed-loop supply chain. one of the important aspects in both reverse logistics and remanufacturing is pricing of returned and remanufactured products (called cores) that it has been noticed in this paper. in addition, in this paper the researchers have tried to present a mathema...

In this paper, a new analytical method to find a near-optimal high gain controller for the non-minimum phase affine nonlinear systems is introduced. This controller is derived based on the closed form solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation associated with the cheap control problem. This methodology employs an algebraic equation with parametric coefficients for the systems with s...

this paper describes an optimal design for multivariable pi controller with a high gain structure for an irregular system by genetic algorithm. pi controllers with a high gain structure leads to the asymptotic decomposition of the fast and slow modes in the closed loop system that have unique characteristics. the slow modes are asymptotically uncontrollable and unobservable; therefore, they hav...

the problem of pole assignment, also known as an eigenvalue assignment, in linear discrete-time periodic systems in discs was solved by a novel method which employs elementary similarity operations. the former methods tried to assign the points inside the unit circle while preserving the stability of the discrete time periodic system. nevertheless, now we can obtain the location of eigenvalues ...

time-delay identification is one of the most important parameters in designing controllers. in the cases where the number of inputs and outputs in a system are more than one, this identification is of great concern. in this paper, a novel autocorrelation-based scheme for the state variable time-delay identification for multi-input multi-output (mimo) system has been presented. this method is ba...
