In this paper a novel DPC strategy for Doubly-Fed Induction Generation (DFIG) based wind energy generation system with Indirect Matrix Converter (IMC) is proposed. The DPC with IMC deals with several main characteristics which makes it very suitable for DFIG. By suitably selecting switching pattern, the strategy is able to improve the steady state and transient response behaviors of the machine...

Incorporation of metallic particulate reinforcements in eutectic Sn-Ag solder re­ sults in the formation of intermetallic compounds (IMCs) along particulate/ solder interfaces with different morphologies. For instance, “sunflower” and “blocky faceted” IMC shapes have been observed around Ni particle reinforce­ ments incorporated in the eutectic Sn-Ag solder matrix. The time and tempera­ ture ab...

Competing mechanisms of electromigration and thermomigration in flip chip SnAgCu (SAC) solder joints was studied experimentally. A chain of solder joints were stressed at 2.0 × 10 Amps/cm, 2.4 × 10 Amps/cm, and 2.8 × 10 Amps/cm current density at room temperature. In the test vehicle, some solder joints were exposed to a combination of electromigration and thermomigration, while some others wer...

PID controllers are designed for First order stable/unstable time delay systems with a zero by using IMC method. In this method first order Pade’s approximation is used while deriving PID controller parameters from IMC controller. Simple tuning rules for stable/ unstable First Order Plus Time Delay (FOPTD) system with a positive zero and unstable FOPTD system with a negative zero are given in t...

In this paper, a predictive control of Wind Energy generation system for a Stand-Alone application is presented. The proposed scheme is implied using a wind driven Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) connected to an Indirect Matrix Converter (IMC). The IMC is controlled using Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) technique. The IMC consisting of bi-directional rectifier connecte...

This chapter provides a broad understanding of what integrated marketing communications (IMC) is andwhy it is used. It will introduce the idea of communication barriers, to help explain why creating an effective marketing communications (marcoms) campaign is so challenging, and touch on various theories of communication. In later chapters, there will be discussion of how these communication bar...

Based on many years of multidisciplinary research relating to children and adolescents with a cleft lip and palate who had undergone one-step surgery at the Warsaw Institute of Mother and Child (IMC), orthodontic treatment standards have been developed for this group. IMC standard orthodontic assessment is conducted in children at the ages of 5, 10 and 15. This assessment involves a clinical ex...

A design method based on the internal model control (IMC) theory has been developed for the robust control of a low-power ac induction servo drive in application of highperformance motion control system. Indirect vector control with software current control technique has been developed to achieve fast response decoupling control of the induction motor. An equivalent model representing the contr...

In this paper, we describe the networking of multiple Integral Music Controllers (IMCs) to enable an entirely new method for creating music by tapping into the composite gestures and emotions of not just one, but many performers. The concept and operation of an IMC is reviewed as well as its use in a network of IMC controllers. We then introduce a new technique of Integral Music Control by asse...

Canine inflammatory mammary cancer (IMC) shares epidemiologic, histopathological and clinical characteristics with the disease in humans and has been proposed as a natural model for human inflammatory breast cancer (IBC). The aim of this study was to characterize a new cell line from IMC (IPC-366) for the comparative study of both IMC and IBC. Tumors cells from a female dog with clinical IMC we...
