it is proposed to use a single base platform in the persian gulf considering its low depth and more appropriate environmental conditions in comparison to north sea and mexico gulf where this kind of platform is very popular. the pile of platform is responsible for transmission of environmental loads resulted from waves, currents, wind and dead loads to foundation of platform. using sacs 5.3 sof...

this paper presents a new control method for a three-phase four-wire unified power quality conditioner (upqc) to deal with the problems of power quality under distortional and unbalanced load conditions. the proposed control approach is the combination of instantaneous power theory and synchronous reference frame (srf) theory which is optimized by using a self-tuning filter (stf) and without us...

This paper presents a new control scheme of voltage source active filter (AF) which compensates simultaneously the harmonics and reactive power of non-linear loads. The reference compensating currents are estimated from computed reference supply currents and sensed load currents. Reference supply currents are estimated using active power of the load and the AF. A hysteresis or carrier based PWM...

A conventional high power DC power supply systems consist of a three-phase diode rectifier followed by a high frequency converter to supply loads at regulated DC voltage. These rectifiers draw significant harmonic currents from the utility, resulting in poor input power factor. In this paper, a DC power supply based on dual-bridge matrix converter (DBMC) with reduced number of switches is p...

The development of particle-enriched regions (bed-load) at the base of particle-laden gravity currents has been widely observed, yet the controls and relative partitioning of material into the bed-load is poorly understood. We examine particle-laden gravity currents whose initial mixture (particle and fluid) density is greater than the ambient fluid, but whose interstitial fluid density is less...

Currents are established on the surface of conductors by the propagation of electromagnetic waves in the insulating material between them. If the load is less than the characteristic impedance of the line, multiple reflections and retransmissions eventually build up the line current to that required by the load. The currents are initially established on the surface of the conductors before diff...
