Dielectric spectroscopy was used to measure the loss angle, the dielectric constant and the electrical modulus. Three relaxation processes in calabash oil were identified. It was also found that the relative permittivity decreases with increasing temperature and frequency. A study of the imaginary part of the electrical modulus was done and revealed a relaxation process at low frequencies. At higher frequencies, the dielectric relaxation is thermally activated. The increase in temperature leads to a decrease in the relaxation rate. The result obtained indicates that relaxation type is not of the Debye type in the high-frequency region. The Cole-Cole model of the imaginary part of the permittivity as a function of its real part in calabash oil for different temperatures was drawn and analyzed. It shows the existence of a negative temperature coefficient of resistance in the fluid and helps identifying a relaxation process in the conductivity of the sample studied. It highlights the presence of Debye relaxation which characterizes the presence of an abnormal dispersion of the dielectric constant over a frequency range. Calabash seed oil exhibits better dielectric constant (relative permittivity) compared to other oils.展开更多

In order to reduce the undesired ripples, several methods are used in the literature. Nevertheless,these methods increase the algorithm complexity and dependency on the machine parameters such as the space vector modulation(SVM). The fuzzy logic control method is utilized in this work to decrease these ripples. Moreover, to eliminate the mechanical sensor the extended kalman filter(EKF) is used, in order to reduce the cost of the system and the rate of maintenance. Furthermore, in the domain of controlling the real-time induction motor drives, two principal digital devices are used such as the hardware(FPGA) and the digital signal processing(DSP). The latter is a software solution featured by a sequential processing that increases the execution time. However, the FPGA is featured by a high processing speed because of its parallel processing. Therefore, using the FPGA it is possible to implement complex algorithms with low execution time and to enhance the control bandwidth. The large bandwidth is the key issue to increase the system performances. This paper presents the interest of utilizing the FPGAs to implement complex control algorithms of electrical systems in real time. The suggested sensorless direct torque control using the fuzzy logic(DTFC) of an induction motor is successfully designed and implemented on an FPGA Virtex 5 using xilinx system generator. The simulation and implementation results show proposed approach s performances in terms of ripples, stator current harmonic waves, execution time, and short design time.展开更多

The system considered is continuous in time with norm bounded parametric uncertainties. By incorporating the free weighing matrix approach developed recently, some new delay-dependent stability conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities （LMIs） with some tuning parameters are obtained. An estimate of the domain of attraction of the closed-loop system under a priori designed controller is proposed. The approach is based on a polytopic description of the actuator saturation nonlinearities and the Lyapunov- Krasovskii method. Numerical examples are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design method.展开更多

In order to overcome the detrimental afterpulsing, we demonstrate a passive quenching active reset integrated circuit. Taking advantage of the inherent fast passive quenching process and active reset to reduce reset time, the integrated circuit is useful for reducing afterpulses and is also area-efficient. We investigate the free-running single photon detector＇s afterpulsing effect, de-trapping time, dark count rate, and photon detection efficiency, and also compare with gated regime operation. After correction for deadtime and afterpulse, we find that the passive quenching active reset free-running single photon detector＇s performance is consistent with gated operation.展开更多

In signal proces...In traditional system identification (SI), actual values of system parameters are concealed in the input and output data;hence, it is necessary to apply estimation methods to determine the parameters. In signal processing, a signal with N elements must be sampled at least N times. Thus, most SI methods use N or more sample data to identify a model with N parameters;however, this can be improved by a new sampling theory called compressive sensing (CS). Based on CS, an SI method called compressive measurement identification (CMI) is proposed for reducing the data needed for estimation, by measuring the parameters using a series of linear measurements, rather than the measurements in sequence. In addition, the accuracy of the measurement process is guaranteed by a criterion called the restrict isometric principle. Simulations demonstrate the accuracy and robustness of CMI in an underdetermined case. Further, the dynamic process of a DC motor is identified experimentally, establishing that CMI can shorten the identification process and increase the prediction accuracy.展开更多

Evidence for “...When a moderately stable phase is precipitated out during an intemal reaction, the behaviour of the penetrating atoms within the diffusion zone can be interpreted based on thermodynamic considerations. Evidence for “up-hill” diffusion of the penetrating species through the matrix towards the precipitation front during the intemal nitridation of Ni-Cr alloys at 1125℃ and 6000 bar of N2-pressure was predicted. Such behaviour of nitrogen is opposite to the boundary conditions in Wagner＇s description of internal reactions. A volume change associated with the precipitation reaction resulted in a stress gradient between the alloys surface and the intemal nitridation front. Stress relief occurred mainly by transport of nickel to the gas/metal interface. Pipe diffusion-controlled creep is the dominant stress accommodation mechanism during nitriding of dilute Ni-Cr alloys at 700℃ under a flowing NH3 ＋ H2 gas mixture.展开更多

This pollution is a very complex phenomenon given the diversity of pollutants that may be present in the atmosphere. The air quality in urban areas is of a great concern for residents living in cities and represents a current issue that requires an adequate management. So that air quality policy is driven by health concerns. In this paper, we present an overview on the experience of Agadir city to establish the air quality management policy, local authority on the whole have developed a good understanding of air quality in the area. Indeed for several years, efforts have been made to monitor the air quality in this city, this translated by air quality assessment since 2006 using mobile laboratory and fixed station. Our goals in this study were to review the operation of Local Air Quality Management (LAQM) making better use of available resources to improve its outcomes and make recommendations with a view to improving air quality issues. This work highlights the requirement to revise periodically the LAQM for generating priority for air quality issues within local authority and the need to implement the optimizing Air Quality Monitoring Network (AQMN).展开更多

文摘A differential structure magnetic sensor is proposed.It is comprised of two new-type silicon magnetic sensitivity transistors(SMSTs)with similar characteristics and has a common emitter,two bases and two collectors.The sensor is fabricated by micro electromechanical system technology on a<100>high resistivity silicon wafer.At room temperature,when supply voltage VDD=10.0 V,all the base currents Ib1 of SMST1 and Ib2 of SMST2 equal 6.0 mA,the absolute magnetic sensitivity for the two SMSTs are 46.8 mV/kG and 56.1 mV/kG,respectively,and the absolute magnetic sensitivity for the sensor is 102.9 mV/kG.Meanwhile,the temperature coefficientαV of the collector output voltage of the sensor is 0.044%/℃.The experimental results show that the magnetic sensitivity and the temperature characteristics of the sensor can be improved and ameliorated compared with a single SMST.
文摘This note concerns the problem of the robust stability of uncertain neutral systems with time-varying delay and saturating actuators. The system considered is continuous in time with norm bounded parametric uncertainties. By incorporating the free weighing matrix approach developed recently, some new delay-dependent stability conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities （LMIs） with some tuning parameters are obtained. An estimate of the domain of attraction of the closed-loop system under a priori designed controller is proposed. The approach is based on a polytopic description of the actuator saturation nonlinearities and the Lyapunov- Krasovskii method. Numerical examples are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design method.

文摘InGaAs/InP avalanche photodiodes （APD） are rarely used in a free-running regime for near-infrared single photon detection. In order to overcome the detrimental afterpulsing, we demonstrate a passive quenching active reset integrated circuit. Taking advantage of the inherent fast passive quenching process and active reset to reduce reset time, the integrated circuit is useful for reducing afterpulses and is also area-efficient. We investigate the free-running single photon detector＇s afterpulsing effect, de-trapping time, dark count rate, and photon detection efficiency, and also compare with gated regime operation. After correction for deadtime and afterpulse, we find that the passive quenching active reset free-running single photon detector＇s performance is consistent with gated operation.

文摘We present the containerless heating process of a deeply undercooled metal droplet by electrostatic levitation. The problem of surface charge loss in the heating process is discussed and specific formulas are given to describe the basic process of charge supplement by the photoelectric and thermoelectric effects. The pure metal zirconium is used to be melted and solidified to analyze the heating process. The temperature time curve clearly shows the features including melting, undercooling, recalescence and solid-state phase transformation.

文摘In this paper,three partitioned-stator(PS)machines,namely the PS flux-switching DC-field(PS-FSDC)machine,the PS-FS hybrid-excitation(PS-FSHE)machine,and the flux adjuster FS permanent-magnet(FA-FSPM)machine are proposed.With different flux-regulating mechanisms,all three proposed machines can offer satisfactory flux-weakening capabilities for wide-speed range operations.Unlike the traditional PS machine that installs the armature windings and the excitation sources in the outer-stator and inner-stator,respectively;the proposed machines purposely swap the installation arrangements.Upon the proposed structure,the FA-FSPM machine can fully utilize the stator core for PM material accommodations.As a result,excellent power and torque densities can be achieved.To verify the proposed concepts,these three PS machines are quantitatively compared based on the hybrid electric vehicle(HEV)specifications.

文摘A reasonable parameter configuration helps improve the data transmission performance of the Licklider Transmission Protocol(LTP).Previous research has focused mainly on parameter optimization for LTP in simplified scenarios with one to two hops or multihop scenarios with a custody mechanism of the Bundle Protocol(BP).However,the research results are not applicable to communications in Complex Deep Space Networks(CDSNs)without the custody mechanism of BP that are more suitable for deep space communications with LTP.In this paper,we propose a model of file delivery time for LTP in CDSNs.Based on the model,we propose a Parameter Optimization Design Algorithm for LTP(LTP-PODA)of configuring reasonable parameters for LTP.The results show that the accuracy of the proposed model is at least 6.47%higher than that of the previously established models based on simple scenarios,and the proposed model is more suitable for CDSNs.Moreover,the LTP parameters are optimized by the LTP-PODA algorithm to obtain an optimization plan.Configuring the optimization plan for LTP improves the protocol transmission performance by at least 18.77%compared with configuring the other parameter configuration plans.

文摘In traditional system identification (SI), actual values of system parameters are concealed in the input and output data;hence, it is necessary to apply estimation methods to determine the parameters. In signal processing, a signal with N elements must be sampled at least N times. Thus, most SI methods use N or more sample data to identify a model with N parameters;however, this can be improved by a new sampling theory called compressive sensing (CS). Based on CS, an SI method called compressive measurement identification (CMI) is proposed for reducing the data needed for estimation, by measuring the parameters using a series of linear measurements, rather than the measurements in sequence. In addition, the accuracy of the measurement process is guaranteed by a criterion called the restrict isometric principle. Simulations demonstrate the accuracy and robustness of CMI in an underdetermined case. Further, the dynamic process of a DC motor is identified experimentally, establishing that CMI can shorten the identification process and increase the prediction accuracy.
文摘When a moderately stable phase is precipitated out during an intemal reaction, the behaviour of the penetrating atoms within the diffusion zone can be interpreted based on thermodynamic considerations. Evidence for “up-hill” diffusion of the penetrating species through the matrix towards the precipitation front during the intemal nitridation of Ni-Cr alloys at 1125℃ and 6000 bar of N2-pressure was predicted. Such behaviour of nitrogen is opposite to the boundary conditions in Wagner＇s description of internal reactions. A volume change associated with the precipitation reaction resulted in a stress gradient between the alloys surface and the intemal nitridation front. Stress relief occurred mainly by transport of nickel to the gas/metal interface. Pipe diffusion-controlled creep is the dominant stress accommodation mechanism during nitriding of dilute Ni-Cr alloys at 700℃ under a flowing NH3 ＋ H2 gas mixture.
文摘In this paper, the time evolution of the quantum mechanical state of a polaron is examined using the Pekar type variational method on the condition of the electric-LO-phonon strong-coupling and polar angle in RbC1 triangular quantum dot. We obtain the eigenenergies, and the eigenfunctions of the ground state, and the first excited state respectively. This system in a quantum dot can be treated as a two-level quantum system qubit and the numerical calculations are performed. The effects of Shannon entropy and electric field on the polaron in the RbC1 triangular quantum dot are also studied.
文摘Air pollution is a major global issue with widely known harmful effects on human health and the environment. This pollution is a very complex phenomenon given the diversity of pollutants that may be present in the atmosphere. The air quality in urban areas is of a great concern for residents living in cities and represents a current issue that requires an adequate management. So that air quality policy is driven by health concerns. In this paper, we present an overview on the experience of Agadir city to establish the air quality management policy, local authority on the whole have developed a good understanding of air quality in the area. Indeed for several years, efforts have been made to monitor the air quality in this city, this translated by air quality assessment since 2006 using mobile laboratory and fixed station. Our goals in this study were to review the operation of Local Air Quality Management (LAQM) making better use of available resources to improve its outcomes and make recommendations with a view to improving air quality issues. This work highlights the requirement to revise periodically the LAQM for generating priority for air quality issues within local authority and the need to implement the optimizing Air Quality Monitoring Network (AQMN).

文摘The negative impact on communication performance in wireless multi-hop communication net-work caused by limited bandwidth,high bit eror rate （BER）,fading,noise and interference is alleviated by an adaptive filtering game based on frequency subbands selection and predetemined threshold.Such threshold is being obtained in Gaussian and multipath fading channel according to the frequency-matching principle and BER performance.The dynamic selection of subbands will obtain high use efficiency without the help of frequency hopping,and propound a new thought to improve band limited communication for wireless multi-hop communication network.The effectiveness of the adaptive filtering method has been verified by interleaving spread spectrum orthogonal frequency division multiplexing （ISS-OFDM） in different interference conditions,and the simulating results based on network simulator 2 （NS2） indicate that system BER can be improved greatly.
