However, the conventional linear permanent magnet synchronous motor(LPMSM) suffers from thrust ripple, which degrades the motor performance. The thrust ripple in LFSPMs is mainly caused by detent force and asymmetric electromagnetic parameters, excluding external disturbances. Moreover, the 12/13 slot-pole LFSPM exhibits unique inductance characteristics, which lead to different effects on thrust ripple. First, the detent force in the LFSPM is analyzed through finite element method(FEM). In addition, new finite element(FE) models are proposed for further analysis of the cogging force in LFSPMs. Second, the unique inductance characteristics of the 12/13 slot-pole LFSPM are investigated, and then the thrust ripple caused by asymmetric electromagnetic parameters is calculated by the virtual displacement method. Third, the mathematical model considering the thrust ripple is established for the LFSPM, which provides a foundation for subsequent research on thrust ripple suppression control strategies. Finally, the thrust ripple analysis is validated by comparing FEM results, modeling simulations, and experimental data.展开更多

Pollutant loads could also be calculated using rainfall, catchment area and runoff coefficient. In this study, runoff quantity and quality data gathered from a 28-month monitoring conducted on the road and parking lot sites in Korea were evaluated using multiple linear regression (MLR) to develop equations for estimating pollutant loads and EMCs as a function of rainfall variables. The results revealed that total event rainfall and average rainfall intensity are possible predictors of pollutant loads. Overall, the models are indicators of the high uncertainties of NPSs; perhaps estimation of EMCs and loads could be accurately obtained by means of water quality sampling or a long term monitoring is needed to gather more data that can be used for the development of estimation models.展开更多

In this study, runoff quantity and quality data gathered from a 28-month monitoring conducted on the road and parking lot sites in Korea were evaluated using multiple linear regression (MLR) to develop equations for estimating pollutant loads and EMCs as a function of rainfall variables. The results revealed that total event rainfall and average rainfall intensity are possible predictors of pollutant loads. Overall, the models are indicators of the high uncertainties of NPSs; perhaps estimation of EMCs and loads could be accurately obtained by means of water quality sampling or a long term monitoring is needed to gather more data that can be used for the development of estimation models.

文摘The construction method of background value is improved in the original multi-variable grey model (MGM(1,m)) from its source of construction errors. The MGM(1,m) with optimized background value is used to eliminate the random fluctuations or errors of the observational data of all variables, and the combined prediction model together with the multiple linear regression is established in order to improve the simulation and prediction accuracy of the combined model. Finally, a combined model of the MGM(1,2) with optimized background value and the binary linear regression is constructed by an example. The results show that the model has good effects for simulation and prediction.
