A Bi-Directional DC/DC Converter for Energy Storage Systems
This paper addresses a bi-directional dc/dc converter suitable for an energy storage system with an additional function of galvanic isolation. An energy storage device such as an electric double layer capacitor is directly connected to one of the dc buses of the dc/dc converter without any chopper circuit. Nevertheless, the dc/dc converter can continue operating when the voltage across the ener...
متن کاملBi-directional Effects on the Response of an Isolated Bridge
The seismic design of bridge structure is influenced by the bi-directional excitation phenomenon. The bi-directional effects have been ignored in most of the past studies. The calculation of maximum isolator displacements (as per the equation prescribed by AASHTO) also ignores the bi-directional effects of ground motion. In the formulation, the coupled behaviour of the isolation systems has als...
متن کاملNonlocal elasticity theory for static torsion of the bi-directional functionally graded microtube under magnetic field
The microtubes are important structures in nano electromechanical system .in this study a nonlocal model is presented to investigate the static torsion behavior of microtubes made of bi-directional factionally graded material (BDFGM) subjected to a longitudinal magnetic field. Mechanical properties of BDFGM microtube varies in the radial and longitudinal direction according to an arbitrary func...
متن کاملReinforced Concrete Wall Response under Uni- and Bi- Directional Loading
During an earthquake, structures are subjected to both horizontal and vertical shaking. Most structures are rather insensitive to variations in the vertical acceleration history and primary considerations are given to the impact of the horizontal shaking on the behavior of structures. In the laboratory, however, most component tests are carried out under uni-directional horizontal loading to si...
متن کاملStorage Tank Design
A calculus problem arising in the operation of a storage tank for a chemical processing plant is described. Constructing an appropriate gauge for the storage tank requires computing the volume of water residing inside a tilted cylindrical pipe. The following calculus problem arose in the engineering design of a storage tank facility, and is possibly more interesting and challenging for students...
