The purpose of this paper is to present a new approach based on the Least Squares Error method for estimating the unknown parameters of the nonlinear 3rd order synchronous generator model. The proposed method uses the mathematical relationships between the machine parameters and on-line input/output measurements to estimate the parameters of the nonlinear state space model. The field voltage is...

Composition, change and complexity have attracted ev- eryone’s attention towards Self-Adaptive systems. These systems, inspired by the human body, are capable of adapting to changes in the inner and outer environment. The main objective of this study is to achieve a more con- venient availability for e-banking services in the payment switch, using self-healing systems and focusing on the failur...

in industries, preventive maintenance (pm) is not a new practice to minimise the sudden breakdown of production machine. pm will be performed at predetermine intervals to provide a balance between failure cost and component utilisation (aging). however, most of pm interval is based on experience or original equipment manufacturer (oem) recommendations. consequently, the benefits from pm are not...

In this paper the notion of a N -finite state machine is introduced, as well as the concepts of a N -(immediate) successor, a N -exchange property and a N -subsystem are introduced. Some related properties are discussed. A condition for a N -finite state machine to satisfy the N -exchange property is established. A characterization of a N -subsystem is initiated. We prove that the isomorphism b...

Introduction: In this paper, a novel complexity measure is proposed to detect dynamical changes in nonlinear systems using ordinal pattern analysis of time series data taken from the system. Epilepsy is considered as a dynamical change in nonlinear and complex brain system. The ability of the proposed measure for characterizing the normal and epileptic EEG signals when the signal is short or is...

Abstract The mutual exclusion protocol invented by Mellor-Crummey and Scott (called MCS protocol) is used to exemplify that state picture designs based on which the machine graphical animation (SMGA) tool produces animations should be better visualized. Variants of have been in Java virtual machines therefore 2006 Edsger W. Dijkstra Prize Distributed Computing went their paper protocol. new des...

A number of authors have looked at the problem of deriving a checking experiment from a nondeterministic nite state machine that mod els the required behaviour of a system We show that these methods can be extended if it is known that the implementation is equivalent to some unknown deterministic nite state machine When testing a deterministic implementation the test output provides information...

background: human error is the most important cause of occupational and non-occupational accidents. because, it seems necessary to identify, predict and analyze human errors, and also offer appropriate control strategies to reduce errors which cause adverse consequences, the present study was carried out with the aim of identifying human errors while operating meat grinder and offer suggestions...
