A robust internal force-based impedance control scheme for coordinating manipulators is introduced. Internal force-based impedance control enforces a relationship between the velocity of each manipulator and the internal force on the manipulated objects and requires no knowledge of the object dynamic model. Each manipulator's nonlinear dynamics is compensated by a robust auxiliary controller wh...

A new approach is developed for calculating the dynamic response of multi-spool rotor systems with several intershaft hearings using the combined methodologies of the finite element method (FEM), transfer matrices (TM) and impedance methods. The approach makes use of FEM to model shaft elements and then transforms the system properties to transfer matrix mode. The intershaft bearings are treate...

The electrochemical performance of single wall carbon nanotube ~SWNT!/Nafion composite electrodes were studied in sulfuric acid solutions. Electrochemical oxidation of the highly dispersed SWNTs within the Nafion matrix results in a dramatic morphological change in the SWNTs. As evidenced by transmission electron microscopy, small bundles of straight-line SWNTs change into curved bundles with r...

Modern analysis techniques for electrical machines are either analytical or use finite element analysis. Both methods are implemented using computational techniques to solve the magnetic circuit and produce performance predictions. This paper puts forward a steady-state impedance matrix method for analysing a split-phase induction machine that is at the leading edge of analytical modelling of i...

-In this paper, techniques are described which demonstrate how a highly detailed internal transformer model can be obtained systematically with Matlab and how it can be prepared for subsequent transient analysis. The input of such a model will mainly be the description of the cross section of a single transformer leg, including all turns and windings. From the input data a three phase equivalen...

Herein we report the Fe3O4-oleate (Fe-OA) nanoparticles (NPs) incorporated poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA), a series of highly flexible nanocomposites (Fe-OA-PVA) were prepared by solution casting technique. The fabricated with different weights per cent (0.25 wt. %, 0.5wt. and 0.75wt. 1wt. 2wt. respectively) Fe3O4-OA into PVA matrix. synthesized characterized using FTIR, UV–Vis, XRD, Contact angle,...

In this paper, we present a novel approach for the incorporation of wavelets into the solution of frequencydomain integral equations arising in scattering problems. In this approach, we utilize the fact that when the basis functions used are wavelet-type functions, only a few terms in a series expansion are needed to represent the unknown quantity. To determine these dominant expansion function...

in recent years many research works have been carried out on anti-corrosive nanocomposites coatings containing mineral reinforcements. the most important criteria in these attempts are polymerization method and the type of matrix and reinforcement of nanocomposites. in this regard, the physical and mechanical properties of the polymers in which a small amount of filler is used can be improved. ...

In this paper, we investigate sparsity regularization for electrical impedance tomography (EIT). Here, we combine sparsity regularization with the energy functional approach. The main results of our paper is the well-posedness and convergence rates of the sparsity regularization method.
