Recent research results have shown that neural network techniques are eeective in compensating highly nonlinear uncertainties in the robot model where computed torque method is used for robot motion control. One excellent work was reported by Ishiguro et:al 1]. The propose of this note is to present a simple alternate solution to the same control problem which eliminates the need of a neural ne...

This paper concerns the design and analysis, of a ball type continuously variable transmission, (B-CVT). This B-CVT has a simple kinematic structure, and same as a toroidal CVT, transmits power by friction on the contact points between input and output discs, that are connected to each other by balls. After, a brief introduction of our B-CVT structure, the performa...

nowadays the use of the switched reluctance motors (srms) has been considerably increased in various home and industrial applications. despite of many advantages of this type of motors, such as simple structure, low cost, and high reliability, the main disadvantage of them is the generation of high torque pulsation. this paper presents a novel method to optimize a typical srm such that the torq...

BACKGROUND A current implant body surface was treated with "rough processing" by sandblasting and acid etching for the purposes of obtaining more reliable osseointegration and shortening the treatment period. Various reports have examined the healing period with the use of these implant bodies, but a consensus opinion has not yet been obtained. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relat...

background: reusing orthodontic mini-screws would reduce treatment cost and lead to more use of mini-screws and improvement of orthodontic treatments. this study has assessed the effects of reprocessing and reusing the titanium mini-screws on their maximum insertion, removal and fracture torque (ft). materials and methods: in this experimental study, 20 titanium mini-screws (1.6-mm × 8-mm) were...

Spacely Sprockets (a pseudonym) specializes in the manufacture of aerospace products. The corporate mission of Spacely Sprockets is simply “client success”, which drives the expectation that every product must work the first time, every time. Spacely Sprockets relies on accurate application of torque when tightening mechanical fasteners during the manufacturing process. Torque is a twisting for...

This article presents a modeling approach and control strategy for multiphase surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous machine drives. The mathematical model is completely general with respect to the parameters winding configuration. It also intrinsically considers effects of eventual constraints phase currents, generated from electrical connections among windings or resulting faults. curre...

The generated torque ripple in switched reluctance motors (SRM) can be considered as one of the major disadvantages of the motor. It is mainly due to frequent switching of phases for rotation of the motor and changes of the air gap length between the rotor and stator teeth. It decreases the average developed torque, diminish the efficiency, causes noise and vibration in the motor. So, in order ...

in this research, the total torque input and output shafts were subjected to are used to formulate twodifferential equations using applied dynamics and fluid mechanics. the equations show that the input andoutput torques are a function of the constant geometrical parameters of a torque converter, includinginternal and external diameters of vanes, angle and length of vanes, cross section area be...
