Theoretical investigation on the effect of individual stage-gain selection on the 3-dB bandwidth of three-op-Amp difference amplifiers
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The differential gain of a three-op-Amp difference amplifier is determined by the product of the gain values of its two stages. Usually, the total desired differential gain is assigned to the first stage while the gain of ...
A four-switch based long-cable-fed five-phase induction motor drive system
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In applications where motors are fed from low voltage variable-frequency drive (VFD) through long cables, a step up transformer is commonly used to boost the converter output voltage in order to compensate for the cable ...
A full bridge-based fault current controller for distributed generation systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Nowadays the demand of electricity is continuously increasing which necessitates adding more distributed generators, causing the level of fault current to highly increase. The level of Fault Current (FC) could even exceed ...
Cyclic loading effects on soil-energy pile interaction
(
CRC Press/Balkema
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
To reduce greenhouse gas emission from space heating and cooling, energy piles have been used in buildings as an alternative renewable energy source for approximate by two decades. However, the effects of cyclic thermal ...
Condition assessment of sewer pipelines using multi attribute utility theory (MAUT)
(
International Society for Trenchless Technology
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Many municipalities rely on the interpretation of Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) inspection reports to arrive to a condition assessment grade for the inspected sewer pipelines. The grades stand as a key for decision ...
Effect of stator winding connection on performance of five-phase linear induction machines
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In electric traction, Linear Induction Motors (LIMs) have become a competitive alternative, especially for low speed applications where machines with short stators are commonly used. Due to driving dynamics tolerances, ...
Comparison of registration methods for mobile manipulators
(
World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Mobile manipulators can be effective, efficient, and flexible for automation on the factory floor but will need safety and performance standards for wide adoption. This paper looks at a specific area of performance standards ...
An interconnected observer for modular multilevel converter
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Modular multilevel converter (MMC) is an attractive topology for transformer-less high voltage applications due to its capability to reach high voltage levels by the use of power semiconductors. Each submodule can be ...
An environmental burden shifting approach to re-evaluate the environmental impacts of products
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Life cycle assessment (LCA) can help enterprises evaluate their product's environmental impacts through the entire product life cycle (PLC). On the basis of the evaluation result, phases which need to take activities to ...
Impact of time synchronization error on the mode-shape calculation in wireless sensor networks for structural health monitoring
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
For structural health monitoring (SHM), mode shape calculation is an important task that needs to be performed accurately and reliably. The use of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) for SHM is a very effective and a promising ...
