some numerical and experimental investigations are made on the performance of five different hyperelastic constitutive models (second order polynomial, yeoh, arruda-boyce, ogden and marlow) in tension and compressionmodes. first, the results of the tensile and compression tests on a rubber sample were used to determine the parameters of the models by curve fitting methods. next, by using an alg...

An improved method for adaptive noise canceller (ANC) is proposed for noisy speech signal in case of random noise. In this approach, ANC is implemented through four different metaheuristic techniques. A comparative study of the performance of various metaheuristic techniques such as Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Artificial Bee Colony (ABC), Cuckoo Search (CS) and Modified Cuckoo Search (MC...

Notch filters represent a method of estimating and/or tracking sinusoidal frequencies immerged in background noise. We shall refer to adaptive notch IIR filters, which make use of the RLS method. This paper presents an implementation of adaptive notch IIR filters on MOTOROLA StarCore140 DSP. We have used a modified RLS algorithm, more suitable for DSP implementation. The paper presents theoreti...

Power system stabilizers (PSSs) must be capable of providing appropriate stabilization signals over abroad range of operating conditions and disturbances. The main idea of this paper is changing aclassic PSS (CPSS) to an adaptive PSS using genetic algorithm. This new genetic algorithm based onadaptive PSS (GAPSS) improves power system damping, considerably. The controller design issue isformula...

This paper introduces an adaptive control scheme to synchronize two identical Chua’s systems. Introductory part of the paper is presented in the first part of the paper and then in the second part, a new theorem is proposed based on which an adaptive control scheme is developed to synchronize two identical modified Chua’s circuit. Finally, numerical simulations are included to verify the effect...

this paper introduces a technique for controlling a class of uncertain chaotic systems using an adaptive fuzzy proportional-integrator-derivative (pid) controller with h∞ tracking performance. the purpose of this work is to achieve optimal tracking performance of the controller using backtracking search algorithm (bsa). bsa, which is a novel heuristic algorithm, has an easy structure with singl...

It is well known that the adaptive algorithm is simple and easy to program but the results are not fully competitive with other nonlinear methods such as free knot spline approximation. We modify the algorithm to take full advantages of nonlinear approximation. The new algorithms have the same approximation order as other nonlinear methods, which is proved by characterizing their approximation ...

This article presents a compression-based adaptive algorithm for Chinese Pinyin input. There are many different input methods for Chinese character text and the phonetic Pinyin input method is the one most commonly used. Compression by Partial Match (PPM) is an adaptive statistical modelling technique that is widely used in the field of text compression. Compression-based approaches are able to...

Large, sparse nonsymmetric systems of linear equations with a matrix whose eigenvalues lie in the right half plane may be solved by an iterative method based on Chebyshev polynomials for an interval in the complex plane. Knowledge of the convex hull of the spectrum of the matrix is required in order to choose parameters upon which the iteration depends. Adaptive Chebyshev algorithms, in which t...

In this paper we propose an adaptive multi-modal verification system comprised of a modified Minimum Cost Bayesian Classifier (MCBC) and a method to find the reliability of the speech expert for various noisy conditions. The modified MCBC takes into account the reliability of each modality expert, allowing the de-emphasis of the contribution of opinions from the expert affected by noise. Reliab...
