High torque and power density are unique merits of transverse flux machines (TFMs). TFMs particularly suitable for use in direct-drive systems, that is, those systems with no gearbox between the electric machine prime mover or load. Variable speed wind turbines in-wheel traction seem to be great-potential applications TFMs. Nevertheless, cogging torque, efficiency, factor manufacturing should s...

While the cortical effects of repetitive motor activity are generally believed to be task specific, the task parameters that modulate these effects are incompletely understood. Since there are differences in the neural control of flexor vs. extensor muscles, the type of muscles involved in the motor task of interest may be one important parameter. In addition, the role each muscle plays in the ...

An acoustic field spontaneously induced in a thermoacoustic prime mover consisting of a looped tube and resonator is determined through simultaneously measurements of pressure P and velocity U. A thermal efficiency of the thermoacoustic prime mover of this type has been reported to reach 30%. The measurements of the acoustic field in the present system revealed that a phase lead of U relative t...

Energy plays an important role globally. Industrial growth, coupled with high system losses, has resulted in a major demand-supply imbalance resulting energy shortage devastating effect on the economies of countries. The pollution brought by combusting source and price-increasing-motion fuel tends people to explore use greener cheaper alternatives. Combining solar sources Thermoelectric Generat...

This paper proposes the full simulation model for electrical analysis of all-electric ship (AES) based on a medium voltage DC power system. The AES has become popular both in commercial and military areas due to low emission, high fuel consumption efficiency, wide applicability. In spite many advantages, it is complex difficult construct whole system with mechanical components onboard. Full ess...
