There are two dynamics issues in vision chips: (i) The temporal dynamics issue due to the parasitic capacitors in a CMOS chip, and (ii) the spatial dynamics issue due to the regular array of processing elements in a chip. These issues are discussed in [1]–[3] for the resistor network with only associated parasitic capacitances. However, in this paper we consider also parasitic inductances as we...

A high voltage and nanosecond Blumlein pulse generator has been developed to produce an output pulse whose voltage level is greater than 250 kV and pulse duration 5 ns. The generator consists of various components such as a charging circuit, a pulse transformer, and a spark gap switch. As a heart of the generator, a Blumlein pulse forming line has been constructed in the cylindrical form using ...

This paper studies two important questions related with switched reluctance machines: 1. In what conditions we can consider to use the SRM linear model but with sufficient accuracy to predict its steady-state characteristics? 2. To take or not to take into account the mutual inductances in the 6/4 SR non-linear model? Are there any significant errors when we neglect the phase mutual inductances...

We consider a general class of two-dimensional passive propagation media, represented as a planar graph where nodes are capacitors connected to a common ground and edges are inductors. Capacitances and inductances are fixed in time but vary in space. Kirchhoff’s laws give the time dynamics of voltage and current in the system. By harmonically forcing input nodes and collecting the resulting ste...

A bi-directional multi-port converter can accommodate various energy storages and sources. Therefore, a multiport converter will be a good candidate for application as a future universal converter for (hybrid) electrical vehicles or local distribution systems. The main design challenge of the multiport converter analyzed in this paper is the design of its three-phase symmetrical transformer. In...

This paper presents a parallelized Quasi-Monte Carlo algorithm for the extraction of partial inductances in IC interconnect structures. Quasi-random numbers provide superior convergence over pseudo-random numbers, and in this paper the results are presented for three quasi-random number sequences-Halton, Sobol and Niderreiter. The algorithm has been parallelized and an almost linear rate of par...

We give a basic and self-contained introduction to the mathematical description of electrical circuits which contain resistances, capacitances, inductances, voltage and current sources. Methods for the modeling of circuits by differentialalgebraic equations are presented. The second part of this paper is devoted to an analysis of these equations.

The operational characteristics during transients are significantly influenced by magnetic saturation in electrical equipment. For the computation of steady-state rated operation multiphase induction machines, assumption linear behavior iron core classical machine models may be sufficient. mathematical considered differ terms existence or absence dynamic cross-saturation effects. approach that ...
