Abstract: In this study, the effect of fuel injection discharge curve and injection pressure simultaneously for upgrading power of heavy duty diesel engine by simulation of combustion process in AVL-Fire software are discussed. Hence, the fuel injection discharge curve was changed from semi-triangular to rectangular which is usual in common rail fuel injection system. Injection pressure with r...

The purpose of this study was to examine the power-strength curve in a half squat exercise in trained basketball players of the EBA league. For that, a cross sectional, descriptive study was carried out to 8 high-level male basketball players. After controlling the participants 1RM, a progressive test, consisted on moving loads of 30, 45, 60, 70 and 80% of 1RM as fast as possible in the concent...

Wind turbine power curves are calibrated by turbine manufacturers under requirements stipulated by the International Electrotechnical Commission to provide a functional mapping between the mean wind speed v and the mean turbine power output P. Wind plant operators employ these power curves to estimate or forecast wind power generation under given wind conditions. However, it is general knowledg...

Most speech parameter estimation techniques are easily innuenced by the frequency response of the communication channel. We have developed a technique that is more robust to such steady-state spectral factors in speech. The approach is conceptually simple and computationally eecient. The new method is described, and experimental results are reported, showing a signiicant advantage for the propo...

Curve tracers draw a graph of current versus voltage of electronic devices. They are usually used to plot the characteristic curves of transistors (see Fig. 1a), but can also display diode curves (see Fig. 1b), and the v-i characteristics of other two and threeterminal devices. A family of curves is drawn, each curve differing from the next by a change in a controlling quantity (or parameter), ...
