When multiple radio-frequency sources are connected to multiple loads through a passive multiport matching network, perfect power transfer to the loads across all frequencies is generally impossible. In this two-part paper, we provide analyses of bandwidth over which power transfer is possible. Our principal tools include broadband multiport matching upper bounds, presented herein, on the integ...

Inverse Transient Analysis (ITA) is a powerful approach for leak detection of pipelines. When the pipe transient flow is analyzed in frequency domain the ITA is called Inverse Frequency Response Analysis (IFRA). To implement an IFRA for leak detection, a transient state is initiated in the pipe by fast closure of the downstream end valve. Then, the pressure time history at the valve location is...

This paper presents a finite element formulation for the dynamics analysis of the steady and transient states of a nonlinear piezoelectric beam. A piezoelectric beam with damping is studied under harmonic excitation. A numerical method is used for this analysis. In the paper, the central difference formula of four order is used and compared with the central difference formula of two order in th...

The purpose of this article is modal analysis of ionic polymer metal composite beams, then briefing the system to the unique parameters to help in up modeling of the actuator. In this paper at first using of Mathematical analysis and Closed form transfer function of cantilever beam dynamic response to the forces of different inputs (intensive and continuous) is calculated and for different type...

Power transformers prove to be a vital element or tool in electrical power supply and transmission system. They are capital intensive units and need to be monitored for faults. Faults in transformers leading to their failure are repugnant. Thus, there is a need to detect such faults at an initial level. This paper aims to detect, diagnose the nature and cause of mechanical faults, their identit...

it is well known that ground-shaking site effect caused by an earthquake can vary significantly within a small distance. this is because at sites having soft soil and/or topographic and basement undulations, seismic energy gets trapped, leading to amplification of vibration that may cause considerable damage to man-made structures. theoretical analysis and observational data have shown that eac...

This paper employs one-dimensional numerical ground response analysis models to investigate seismic response of shallow cohesive and non-cohesive soil deposits on vertical propagation of horizontal shear waves. Soil response is modelled by traditional equivalent-linear (EL) frequency-domain analysis using DEEPSOIL software and nonlinear (NL) time-domain analysis using OPENSEES software. The ana...

dynamic analysis and study of atomic force microscope in liquid environment is the main goal of this research. hydrodynamic and squeeze forces act on cantilever of atomic force microscope which works in liquid environment, so. in this paper the effect of different environmental and physical factors had studied on frequency response diagrams. the importance of frequency response analysis is stud...
