The frequency dependent grid impedance at the terminals of an electrical supply grid is an essential parameter for power quality and grid feedback analysis. In this contribution the identification of the grid impedance is achieved using spectral excitation currents at the corresponding grid connection point, which generate measureable changes in the grid voltage spectra. Different…

Large power transformers generally include a customer request for a technically appropriate regulation unit. The selection process of the regulation unit consists of defining the required input data, performing mathematical calculations necessary to find the technical limit values that the regulation unit has to satisfy, and finally optimizing and selecting the appropriate regulation unit. The…

This article examines the use of non-ideal current and voltage sensors for sensorless speed control for a fixed field DC motor. A PID type speed controller with KF estimator was applied to control the DC motor and IAE, settling time, and peak overshoot were taken as performance indices. However, KF facilitated the noise reduction. After…

Driven by today’s market demand, semiconductor is pushing towards the zero-defect direction. The improvement demanded in semiconductor manufacturing is becoming increasingly challenging. In this paper, common molding defects comprise of voids, incomplete fills, and piping holes are studied systematically, focusing on three key areas: 1) Potential mold flow weakness; 2) Molding temperature stability; as well…

Space debris removal is currently a critical issue for space development. It has been reported that five pieces of debris should be removed each year to avoid further increase in the amount of debris in orbit. One approach for the removal of multiple pieces of debris is to launch multiple satellites that can each remove…

The application of protective coatings is the primary method of protecting marine and offshore structures from corrosion. Coating breakdown and corrosion (CBC) assessment is a major aspect of coating failure management. Evaluation methods can result in unnecessary maintenance costs and a higher risk of failure. To achieve a comprehensive collection of data for CBC assessment,…

Distraction, drowsiness, and fatigue are the main factors of car accidents recently. To solve such problems, an Eye-tracking system based on camera is proposed in this paper. The system detects the driver’s Distraction or sleepiness and gives an alert to the driver as an assistance system. The camera best position is chosen to be on…

Service providers are transferring their static optical transport networks from semi-permanent connections to agile automatic switched optical networks (ASON) with dynamic optical connection provisioning and restoration. To achieve this goal, service providers are looking for flexible optical network ROADMs with CDC capabilities. Although many contention scenarios during network connection provisioning and restoration have been illustrated,…

This paper investigates the electronic book production and distribution practices adopted by the Publishers in Southeast Nigeria because of the global growing interest in writing new book titles in digital form as well as converting paper titles to digital content. To investigate this study, the researcher formulated three research questions to guide the study. A…

Considering link vibrations, the main limitation affecting flexible manipulators, this article seeks to make a contribution by presenting an enhanced two degree of freedom vibration controller. This controller uses a filtered right inverse controller in the feedforward and strain feedback controller in the feedback path. The Filtered inverse controller damps transient vibrations while preserving joint…

The paper presents design and implementation of a mobile robot, located in an accommodation. As opposed to other known solutions, the presented one is entirely based on standard, cheap and accessible devices and tools. An algorithm for transformation of the 2D coordinates of the robot into 3D coordinates is described. The design and implementation of…

Domain specific modeling (DSM) has become popular in the software development field during these last years. It allows to design an application using a domain specific modeling language (DSML) and to generate an end-solution software product directly from models. However providing a new DSML is a complex and costly job. This can be reduced by…

Brain tumor is the abnormal growth of cancerous cells in Brain. The development of automated methods for segmenting brain tumors remains one of the most difficult tasks in medical data processing. Accurate segmentation can improve diagnosis, such as evaluating tumor volume. However, manual segmentation in magnetic resonance data is a laborious task. The main problem…
