A conventional high power DC power supply systems consist of a three-phase diode rectifier followed by a high frequency converter to supply loads at regulated DC voltage. These rectifiers draw significant harmonic currents from the utility, resulting in poor input power factor. In this paper, a DC power supply based on dual-bridge matrix converter (DBMC) with reduced number of switches is p...

This paper represents the performance of a squirrel-cage High Temperature Superconducting Induction/ Synchronous Motor (HTS-ISM) based on nonlinear electrical equivalent circuit. The structure of the HTS-ISM is the same as that of the squirrel-cage type induction machine, and the secondary windings are fabricated by the use of the HTS wires. It has already been shown that based on the experimen...

in this paper, a two-surfaces sliding mode controller (tssmc) is proposed for the voltage tracking control of a two input dc-dc converter in application of electric vehicles (evs). the imperialist competitive algorithm (ica) is used for tuning tssmc parameters. the proposed controller significantly improves the transient response and disturbance rejection of the two input converters while prese...

Nowadays, Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) has become one of the most extensively used non-traditional material removal process. Its unique feature of using thermal energy to machine hard to machine electrically conductive materials is its distinctive advantage in the manufacturing of moulds, dies and aerospace components. Howevere, EDM is a costly process and hence proper selection of its ...

This paper presents a detailed small-signal and transient analysis of a full bridge PWM DC-DC converter designed for high voltage, high power applications using an average model. The derived model is implemented in a typical system and used to produce the small-signal and transient characteristics of the converter. Results obtained in the analysis of the high voltage and high power design examp...

this paper presents a design of an uwb downconversion integrated cmos resistive ring mixer with linear voltage regulator (lvr), to supply required biasing voltages for the mixer section. the designed mixer circuit has been optimized for using in heart rate extraction system with microwave doppler radar at 2.4ghz frequency. this mixer needs 2 dc bias voltages equal to 0.5 and 1 volts for its bes...

Hippocampal granule cells are important relay stations that transfer information from the entorhinal cortex into the hippocampus proper. This process is critically determined by the integrative properties of granule cell dendrites. However, their small diameter has so far hampered efforts to examine their properties directly. Using a combination of dual somatodendritic patch-clamp recordings an...
