this paper proposes a new method for parameter estimation of distorted single phase signals, through an improved demodulation-based phase tracking incorporated with a frequency adaptation mechanism. the simulation results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method compared to the conventional sogi (second-order generalized integrator)-based approach, in spite of the dc-offset and harmon...

In this paper, the problem of laminar nanofluid flow which results from the nonlinear stretching of a flat sheet is investigated numerically. In this paper, a modified variable physical properties model for analyzing nanofluids flow and heat transfer is introduced. In this model, the effective viscosity, density, and thermal conductivity of the solid-liquid mixture (nanofluids) which are common...

Single-phase induction motors have a wide range of domestic and industrial applications. These motors have a squirrel cage rotor and their stator usually has two windings: main and auxiliary. The use of auxiliary winding in the structure of single-phase induction motors creates two unbalance and asymmetric phases. This causes to increase the spatial harmonics of the field in the air gap, and al...

Single crystals consisting various surface morphologies and epitaxial structures were applied to investigate the effect of other phase regions in the vicinity of a given tethered chains-covered area having a certain molecular weight of amorphous brushes. The designed experiments demonstrated that regardless of the type of surface morphology (patterned and especial mixed-brushes, homo and co...

A single-phase to three-phase drive system composed of two parallel single-phase rectifiers, a three-phase inverter and an induction motor was proposed. The system combines two parallel rectifiers without the use of transformers. The system model and the control strategy, including the PWM technique, have been developed. The complete comparison between the proposed and standard configurations h...

background: single leg drop landing is one of the common sport activities that have greater likelihood of leading to traumatic oflower extremity. however, there is limited understanding of biomechanics of this maneuver. hence, this study aimed to compare the activities of lower limb muscles during pre- and post phases of single leg drop landing. methods: this semi-experimental research of 13 ph...
