This paper presents detailed modeling and simulation of a compensator for Load balancing and harmonics Compensation based on a five-level cascaded H-bridge multilevel voltage source inverter. This type of compensator, which is installed in parallel with the load, is usually referred to as the shunt active power filters (APF). Nowadays use of high voltage non-linear loads are widely used in indu...

The creep behavior of basalt fiber reinforced epoxy (BFRE) and glass fiber reinforced epoxy (GFRE) composites was studied through tensile testing at high temperature. To study the effect of reinforcing epoxy, the micro glass powder (MGP) was added at various volume percentage into the epoxy resin in BFRE composites. The initial strain for all the specimens were evaluated and compared with each ...

Using harmonic differential quadrature (HDQ) method, nonlinear vibrations and instability of a smart composite cylindrical shell made from piezoelectric polymer of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) reinforced with boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) are investigated while clamped at both ends and subjected to combined electro-thermo-mechanical loads and conveying a viscous-fluid. The mathematical mode...

hadamard (or complete $cat(0)$) spaces are complete, non-positive curvature, metric spaces. here, we prove a nonlinear ergodic theorem for continuous non-expansive semigroup in these spaces as well as a strong convergence theorem for the commutative case. our results extend the standard non-linear ergodic theorems for non-expansive maps on real hilbert spaces, to non-expansive maps on had...

The aim of the present paper is to evaluate the influence of the Soil- Foundation- Structure Interaction (SFSI) effects on the component demand modifier factor of concrete gravity beams based on ASCE 41-06 standard. To this end, the beam on the nonlinear Winkler foundation approach is employed which is a simple and efficient method. At first, four sets of 3-, 6-, 10- and 15-storey concrete mome...

Abstract: Since 1892, the electrical engineering scientific community has been seeking a power theory for interpreting the power flow within electric networks under non-sinusoidal conditions. Although many power theories have been proposed regarding non-sinusoidal operation, an adequate solution is yet to be found. Using the framework based on complex algebra in non-sinusoidal circuit analysis ...

Seaports are progressively electrified to harness various energy resources provide green logistic services ships. They essentially act as multi-energy microgrids enhance the efficiency and environmental sustainability of maritime industry. This trend necessitates coordinated operation multiple sectors in seaport microgrids, which is a challenging problem due complex couplings power, thermal, fl...

The Ffowcs-Williams and Hawkings acoustic analogy was exploited to reconstruct the signature of a tip-loaded propeller with winglets across range working conditions, from design toward higher loads. Results Large-Eddy Simulations, conducted on computational grid consisting about 5 × 109 points, were utilized. For decreasing values advance coefficient, that is for increasing rotational speeds pr...
