one of the most valid and efficient models of long rod projectile penetration in homogeneous targets is tate and alekseevskii’s (a&t;) model. based on tate’s model, the present research tries to calculate the optimum speeds to achieve the maximum penetration depth in the homogeneous targets. the proposed collision speed-penetration depth diagrams are developed using tate’s model. in this way, v...

to increase agricultural crops’ quality and to minimize losses in the final product and used energy during the drying process, major drying system parameters should be continuously controlled. precise control of such parameters is attained by using automatic control systems. to optimize the overall dryer efficiency in a forced convective solar dryer, a controller was designed, constructed a...

In this paper, an optimal speed controller for dc motor is considered using a PID and tuned its parameters of gain to offer solution by modified camel algorithm MCA approach. The proposed scheme was applied solve the difficulty getting optimum gains parameters. has good evolutionary with simple construction optimization depend on searching performance. characteristics were confirmed optimizing ...

This study investigates and models the grinding process of single crystal sapphire. Five parameters: the wheel speed, the feed speed, the vertical feed, the ultrasonic assistance and the crystallographic direction were considered via a design of experiments (DoE) approach. The responses were multiple but can be divided in three groups: the process, the machine and the grinding quality. DoE resu...

The efficiency of induction motor drives under variable operating conditions can be improved by predicting the optimum flux that guarantees loss minimization. In this research, a loss-minimization scalar controller, based on determining of modulation index of IGBT inverter-based AC-to-AC converter, which corresponds to optimum flux, is proposed. For this purpose, mathematical models for total p...
