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...

This paper presents an adaptive neuro-fuzzy controller (ANFC) for the switched reluctance motors (SRM). The proposed controller is used for speed control of this type of motors. The dynamic response of the SRM with the proposed controller is studied during the starting process and under different disturbances. The effectiveness of the proposed ANFC is then compared with that of the conventional...

Nowadays study of input voltage quality on induction motors behavior has become a controversial subject due to the wide application of these motors in the industry. The impact of grid voltage fluctuations on the performance of induction motors can be included in this area. The majority of papers devoted to the influence of voltage fluctuations on the induction motors are focusing only on the so...

in this research using the theory of induction motor (um), a um with liquid as secondary part is planned and manufactured. the main objective for planning of this motor is to investigate the possibility of chemical liquids pumping such as liquid poison and acids. results of many laboratory tests are shown to conclude that pumping force in the manufactured pump is dependent on many factors su...

The molecular motor myosin teams up to drive muscle contraction, membrane traffic, and cell division in biological cells. Myosin function in cells emerges from the interaction of multiple motors tethered to a scaffold, with surrounding actin filaments organized into 3D networks. Despite the importance of myosin function, the influence of intermotor interactions on collective motion remains poor...

objectives: the authors of this paper hypothesized that vibration stimulation applied by a vibratory orthosis improves balance in patients with parkinson’s disease (pd). in this study we evaluate this hypothesis. methods & materials: fourteen pd patients (12 male and 2 female) with mean age of 59.9±9.1 (±sd) years were participated in this cross- sectional study. using biodex balance system, th...

In this review, the progress AFPM their key technologies analyzed described, emphasis on topological structures, design optimization methods control techniques. Based these analyses, main findings review following: (1) yokeless segment armature (YASA)-type have ...

The flagellar motor of Bacillus subtilis possesses two distinct H+-type MotAB and Na+-type MotPS stators. In contrast to the MotAB motor, the MotPS motor functions efficiently at elevated viscosity in the presence of 200 mM NaCl. Here, we analyzed the torque-speed relationship of the Bacillus MotAB and MotPS motors over a wide range of external loads. The stall torque of the MotAB and MotPS mot...

Motor proteins are specialized molecules that convert chemical energy into useful mechanical work and govern many important biological processes. They bind to actin filaments and microtubules and use them as tracks, on which they propagate in order to transport different types of cargo across the cell. Among these molecules we find myosin II motors that interact with elastic actin filaments. My...
