Determination and analysis of vibration behavior of structures for at least first few natural frequencies and mode shapes needs several sensors to be connected at different non node points and exciting the structure at one point. Other method for determination of first few mode shapes is to excite several points of the structure at once and sensing the response from one point.  Both methods nee...

presents a modiied Chebyshev pseudospec-tral method, involving mapping of the Chebyshev points, for solving rst-order hyperbolic initial boundary value problems. It is conjectured that the time step restriction for the modiied method is O(N ?1) compared to O(N ?2) for the standard Chebyshev pseudospectral method, where N is the number of discretization points in space. In the present paper we s...

Two energy transfer cassettes that exhibit a large pseudo Stokes' shift (up to 400 nm) due to efficient through-bond energy transfer (up to 99%) have been constructed. Selective binding of Fe(III) with the donor entity significantly suppresses the excitation energy transfer resulting in fluorescence quenching in aqueous solution and in living cells.

A permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) with sinusoidal flux distribution is commonly coininutated using discrete rotor position feedback from Hall sensors. A commonly used stator current excitation strategy used in such a system is a six-step current waveform. Application of sinusoidal current waveforms is shown to produce smooth torque in the PMSM. This paper shows how a pseudo-sensorless...

In this paper, the problem of pseudo-Hamiltonian realization of a control system is studied. Several sufficient conditions are obtained. The stability of a dynamic system is investigated via dissipative pseudo-Hamiltonian realization, and the stabilization of a control system is also investigated via feedback dissipative pseudo-Hamiltonian realization. Some relations between the stability (asym...
