In this paper, at first, a 24/16 three-phase switched reluctance motor is designed, then the rotor poles shape tips corrected for reduction ripple of single-phase torque waveform. By doing this, the single-phase torque waveform has a flat surface and consequently, the single-phase torque ripple is reduced. Also, due to the commutation between the machine phases, the torque drops during this tim...

Abstract The use of ducted configuration to increase the efficiency wind turbine rotors is gaining wide attention in scientific community. Specifically for mini and micro urban environment applications this solution demonstrated be very attractive. possibility overcome Betz limit power coefficient was widely horizontal axis turbines. However, few studies have dealt with Savonius rotor despite t...

this work deals with effects of asymmetric stiffness on the dynamic behaviour of the rotor system. the analysis is presented through an extended lagrangian hamiltonian mechanics on the asymmetric rotor system, where symmetries are broken in terms of the rotor stiffness. the complete dynamics of asymmetries of rotor system is investigated with a case study. in this work, a mathematical model is ...

This paper presents a new actuation mechanism to drive comb-drive actuators. An asymmetric configuration of the finger overlap was used to generate capacitive coupling for the actuation mechanism. When the driving voltages were applied on the stators, a voltage would be induced at the rotor due to the capacitive coupling. Then, an electrostatic force would be exerted onto the rotor due to the v...

A novel wavelet-based sparse signal representation technique is used to separate the main and tail rotor blade components of a helicopter from the composite radar returns. The received signal consists of returns from the rotating main and tail rotor blades, the helicopter body, possible land or sea clutter, and other residual components, which may all overlap in time and frequency; and therefor...

-Renewable energy has become the prime source of clean and pure form of energy. With the prevailing energy crisis non-conventional energy has become the solution to it. Harnessing wind energy by several wind turbines is commonly done using various types of rotors. But nowadays Seep twist adaptive rotor blades are used to increase annual energy capture of baseline turbine by 5%-10% without excee...

The first diagonalization step in a rho-axis-method treatment of methyl-top internal rotation problems involves finding eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a torsional Hamiltonian, which depends on the rotational projection quantum number K as a parameter. Traditionally the torsional quantum number vt = 0, 1, 2···is assigned to eigenfunctions of given K in order of increasing e...
