some applications are critical and must designed Fault Tolerant System. Usually Voting Algorithm is one of the principle elements of a Fault Tolerant System. Two kinds of voting algorithm are used in most applications, they are majority voting algorithm and weighted average algorithm these algorithms have some problems. Majority confronts with the problem of threshold limits and voter of weight...

This paper presents the application of radial basis neural networks to the development of a novel method for the condition monitoring and fault diagnosis of synchronous generators. In the proposed scheme, flux linkage analysis is used to reach a decision. Probabilistic neural network (PNN) and discrete wavelet transform (DWT) are used in design of fault diagnosis system. PNN as main part of thi...

prompt detection and diagnosis of faults in industrial systems areessential to minimize the production losses, increase the safety of the operatorand the equipment. several techniques are available in the literature to achievethese objectives. this paper presents fuzzy based control and fault detection for a6/4 switched reluctance motor. the fuzzy logic control performs like a classicalproporti...

Mashhad city, the second most populous metropolis of Iran, with a population of more than three million, lies between two seismically active regions of Binalood and Kopet-Dagh. In recent years, the city has grown around the South Mashhad (SM) fault zone in the south. Given the vital role of the SM fault in influencing the seismic risk of the city, this study is aimed at the evaluation of the fa...

in this paper, the consequences of well-known characteristics of near-fault ground motions, forward directivity and fling step, on the seismic response control is investigated. an integrated fuzzy rule-based control strategy for building structures incorporated with semi active friction damping system with amplifying braces (fdsab) is developed. the membership functions and fuzzy rules of fuzzy...

the khushab anticline is located in the zagros fold-thrust belt in the lurestan. this anticline is affected by the balarud fault zone, which is a part of mountain front fault between the lurestan and dezful embayment zones. based on the measurement of the elements of fold style, this anticline is analyzed. according to these measurements, this anticline is a noncylindrical, asymmetrical and dis...

an attempt has been made to explore the general trends in the seismic response of planasymmetric structures when subjected to near-fault and far-fault ground motions. systems with structural wall elements in both orthogonal directions considering actual and common nonlinear behavior under bi-directional excitation were studied. idealized single-storey models with uni-axial eccentricity were emp...

This paper presents the effects of instrument transformers connection points on the measured impedance by distance relays in the presence of Flexible Alternating Current Transmission System (FACTS) devices with series connected branch. Distance relay tripping characteristic itself depends on the power system structural conditions, pre-fault operational conditions, and especially the ground ...

in this paper, the impacts of installing superconducting fault current limiter (sfcl)in radial and loop power distribution system are evaluated to improve voltage sag in both cases of with and without distributed generations (dg). among various sfcls, the hybrid type with a superconducting element in parallel with a current limiting reactor (clr) is selected. this is more effective than resisto...

Sequence data from four gene regions (nrDNA, petN-psbM, trnD-trnT, trnS-trnG, 3,705 bp) revealed that junipers from the southern mountain ranges of Iran are very diverse. The combined NJ tree (3,705 bp) showed strong support for the distinct nature of J. excelsa, J. polycarpos, J. p. var. turcomanica, and J. p. var. seravschanica. The samples from NW Iran are J. polycarpos and samples from NE I...
