Optimal power capturing of multi-MW wind generation system
Recently, an increasing number of multi-MW (1MW and up) wind generation systems are being developed and variable speed-variable pitch (VS-VP) control technology is usually adopted to improve the fast response speed and obtain the optimal energy, which ...
Engineering education and infinite superposition
Attention is focused on continuous-space shift-invariant systems with continuous system maps and inputs and outputs that are elements of L∞ (IRd). It is shown that infinite superposition can fail in this important setting. It is also shown that ...
Enhancing geophysical signals from archaeological sites trough the use of wavelet transforms
Various levels and types of noise are responsible for hindering the valuable information obtained through shallow depth geophysical exploration of archaeological sites. Wavelet transform techniques were tested as a method for decomposition of the ...
Construction and operation of a knowledge base on intelligent machine tools
Machine tools lie at the heart of almost all manufacturing systems, and their performance has a massive influence on both the performance and productivity of systems. In accordance with the development of computer systems, intelligent technologies have ...
Human body model based inertial measurement of sit-to-stand motion kinematics
In the paper a method for measuring kinematics of sit-to-stand motion using inertial sensors and human body model is presented. The proposed method fuses data from inertial sensors and data from three-segment human body model using Extended Kalman ...
Mobile sensors networks under communication constraints
The paper deals with the problem of computing optimal or suboptimal motion for a network of mobile sensors. The use of moving sensors means that for each point of the field under measurement asynchronous discrete time measures are given instead of ...
An axis-shifted crossover-imaged clustering algorithm
With low computation time, the grid-based clustering algorithms are efficient clustering algorithms, but the size of the predefined grids and the threshold of the significant cells are seriously influenced their effects. In grid-based clustering system, ...
Static output-feedback simultaneous stabilization of interval time-delay systems
This paper addresses the problem of simultaneous static output-feedback stabilization of a collection of interval time-delay systems. It is shown that this problem can be converted into a matrix measure assignment problem. Sufficient conditions for ...
Studies of mechanical vibrations and current harmonics in induction motors using finite element method
This paper illustrates a numerical approach to magnetic field modeling for a squirrel-cage induction motor fed by various voltage sources: i) an ideal sinusoidal source, ii) a PWM voltage- source-inverter (VSI), and iii) a six-step VSI. A two-...
A new type compositive hybrid power system-E.T.Driver and its application in HEV
Hybrid power system is one of the kernel technologies of hybrid electric vehicles (HEV). The performance of HEV is greatly determined by the capability of hybrid power system. The hybrid power system has already developed from discrete structure into ...
Emerging issues in IT governance: implementing the corporate IT risks management model
Most organizations in all sectors of industry, commerce and government are fundamentally dependent on their information systems (IS) and would quickly cease to function should the technology (preferably information technology - IT) that underpins their ...
Web metrics for managing quality and auditing Croatian hotel web sites: cluster analysis
Intensive use of e-business can provide number of opportunities and actual benefits to companies of all activities and sizes. In general, through the use of web sites companies can create global presence and widen business boundaries. Many organizations ...
Multiple noise-enhanced stability versus temperature in asymmetric bistable potentials
We explore the problem of noise-enhanced stability occurring in an asymmetric double well potential when Brownian particles are driven by trichotomous noise and thermal noise in a dynamical regime where inertial effects can safely be neglected. In the ...
Modelling of rough-fuzzy classifier
The paper reflects the trend of the past years which is based on the diffusion of various traditional approaches and methods to the way of tackling new problems, in this case to the classification. Two components of the computational intelligence are ...
Computer-aided diagnosis system for retinal diseases in medical imaging
Bordering on important domains - engineering, medicine and informatics, involving not only knowledge regarding the biosystems structure and functionality, but also knowledge and skills from technical and IT systems, the paper presents the results of ...
