Fixture Design Automation and Optimization Techniques: Review and Future Trends

Fixture design is crucial part of manufacturing process. Fixture design is a critical design activity process, in which automation plays an integral role in linking computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD). This paper presents a literature review in computer aided fixture design (CAFD) in terms of automation and optimization techniques over the past decades. First, the...

Review of Variable Speed Drive Technology By

Variable speed drive technology has advanced dramatically in the last 10 years with the advent of new power devices and magnetic materials. This has given rise to substantial confusion by users and specifiers of variable speed drive equipment. Add to that the difficulty in evaluating efficiency and power factor and the subject of drive selection becomes a daunting task indeed. There is no singl...

Design and Simulation of Double Loop Control for Power Converter Fed Variable Speed DC Drive

Modern Topology& Thermal Analysis of Drive for Variable Speed Pumped Storage Power Plant

Given the significant power generation and consumption of variable-speed pumped storage power plants (VSPSPs), it is crucial to enhance drive methods and decrease drive losses, thereby increasing productivity. This paper proposes the topology for VSPSP drivers with two level voltage source converters (2LVSC) with 6+1 converters. Hydraulic and electrical VSPSP models are presented, following whi...

About Measurement Uncertainty of Conducted Emissions Generated by a Variable Speed Drive

An experimental study about uncertainty in measurements of conducted emissions generated by a variable speed drive in the frequency band 150 kHz to 30 MHz due to variations in the power voltage, driving conditions and amplitude of torque applied to an electrical load is presented. A global index based on the weighted distance between measurements and standard limits is introduced to help to sin...
