This paper presents a method for diagnosis of eccentricity fault in a switched-reluctance motor (SRM) during offline and standstill modes. In this method, the fault signature is differential induced voltage (DIV) achieved by injecting diagnostic pulses to the motor windings. It will be demonstrated by means of results that there is a correlation between differential induced voltage and eccentri...

[1] A new methodology for three‐dimensional (3‐D) simulations of earthquake sequences is presented that accounts not only for inertial effects during seismic events but also for shear‐induced temperature variations on the fault and the associated evolution of pore fluid pressure. In particular, the methodology allows to capture thermal pressurization (TP) due to frictional heating in a shear zo...

Fault simulation for sequential circuits numbers among the highly compute-intensive tasks in the integrated circuit design process. In the quest for rapid design turn-around, parallelization has been proposed to speed fault simulation. In this paper, we introduce ProperPROOFS, a parallel extension of the PROOFS fault simulation package. ProperPROOFS exploits parallelism based on fault partition...

The Lower Permian Fengcheng Formation in the Mahu Sag develops a set of organic-rich alkaline lacustrine shale strata, which is key area for oil exploration and development. As an important storage space seepage channel reservoirs, natural fractures have impact on enrichment, production development effect. In this study, types characteristics were first analyzed using core, thin section imaging...

In this paper, we incorporate some real-system effects into the theory of orientational phase transitions under shear flow [M. E. Cates and S. T. Milner, Phys. Rev. Lett. 62 1856 (1989) and G. H. Fredrickson, J. Rheol. 38, 1045 (1994)]. In particular, we study the influence of the shear-cell boundaries on the orientation of the lamellar phase. We predict that at low shear rates, the parallel or...

Phase-separable particulate-containing gel structures constitute complex fluids. In many cases they may incorporate component concentration inhomogeneities within the ensemble matrix. When formulated into high consistency suspensions, these can lead to unpredictable time-dependent variations in rheological response, particularly under shear in simple parallel plate and cylindrical rotational ge...

We present a model for application-level fault tolerance for parallel applications. The objective is to achieve high reliability with minimal impact on the application. Our approach is based on a full replication of all parallel application components in a distributed wide-area environment in which each replica is independently scheduled in a different site. A system architecture for coordinati...

11 Earthquakes can rupture geometrically complex fault systems by breaching fault step-overs. 12 Quantifying the likelihood of rupture jump across step-overs is important to evaluate earth13 quake hazard and to understand the interactions between dynamic rupture and fault growth 14 processes. Here we investigate the role of seismogenic depth and background stress on phys15 ical limits of earthq...
