this paper develops new results on the use of model predictive control to regulate the attitude of a ground station antenna. two degree of freedom az-el pedestal is considered as ground station antenna. permanent magnet synchronous motors are taken into consideration as the best choice for satisfaction of control objectives as actuators. the design is based on a two cascade controller consist o...

This work presents a numerical approach in order to predict the influence of implant material stiffness in a femoral component design when submitted in compression. The implant success depends on the transferred load to the neighboring bone. The finite element method can be used to analysis the stress and strain distribution in the femoral component allowing to improve the implant selection. Fo...

in present paper, dynamic behavior and control of a fluidized bed reactor for polyethylene production has been considered. a double active sites model for ziegler-natta catalysts is used for simulation of polymerization reaction. hydrodynamic behavior of the bed is modeled using a two phase model including bubble and emulsion phases in which bubble phase has plug flow pattern with differentiall...

In this paper, considering symmetric collapse mode for hybrid tubes, and using Tsai-Hill fracture criterion to take into account the off-axis strength of an orthotropic lamina, an analytical model is extended and an expression is derived for mean crushing load and fold lengths of circular hybrid tubes. In this model, the influences of the geometrical dimensions including diameter, thickness of ...

Load modeling is widely used in power system studies. Two types of modeling, namely, static and dynamic, are employed. The current industrial practice is the static modeling. Static modelss are algebraic equations of active and reactive power changes in terms of voltage and frequency deviations. In this paper, a component based on static modeling is employed in which the aggregate model is deri...
