An explicitly solvable energy-conserving algorithm for pitch-angle scattering in magnetized plasmas

Scattering and Modulational Instabilities in Magnetized Plasmas

The decay of a high-frequency wave into a scattered and an electrostatic wave is investigated for a homogeneous magnetized plasma. For wave propagation in arbitrary directions, an equation for the scattered wave is obtained accounting for the effect of the non-linear current density produced by the three-wave interaction process. As an illustration, the propagation of electromagnetic waves perp...

Random string: an explicitly solvable model

We calculate exactly the Lyapunov exponent and the integrated density of states for the random string operator whose density and elastic compliance are functions of a binary Markov chain. For all values of interest short and long wave asymptotic expansions are obtained. Finally we discuss conditions of propagation and localization of waves in a binary random medium.

Type-2 fuzzy logic based pitch angle controller for fixed speed wind energy system

In this paper, an interval Type-2 fuzzy logic based pitch angle controller is proposed for fixed speed wind energy system (WES) to maintain the aerodynamic power at its rated value. The pitch angle reference is generated by the proposed controller which can compensate the non-linear characteristics of the pitch angle to the wind speed. The presence of third dimension in the Type-2 fuzzy logic c...
