In this article, an improved Multistage Switched Inductor (M-SI) based power converter or Improved Multistage Switched Inductor Boost Converter (Improved M-SIBC) is proposed for renewable applications which provides a key ...
Nonlinear stochastic drillstrings vibrations: Parametric study for stick-slip suppression
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Unstable vibrations caused by the transition between static and kinetic frictions produces stick-slip motions which is one of the primary causes of poor drilling efficiency and mechanism failure in the drilling process. ...
When rank order isn't enough: New statistical-significance-aware correlation measures
(
Association for Computing Machinery
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Because it is expensive to construct test collections for Cranfield-based evaluation of information retrieval systems, a variety of lower-cost methods have been proposed. The reliability of these methods is often validated ...
