wepp model needs a great deal of input data.  identifying the model’s sensitive parameters and their prioritization increases the accuracy and efficiency of the model. on the other hand, wepp model can simulate processes affecting on runoff, erosion and sediment throughout the year. thus, model sensitivity must vary based on the storm occurrence time and parameters value in different sections o...

in this paper, a new approach is proposed for the optimum design of single-phase induction motor. by using the classical design equations and the evolutionary algorithms such as genetic algorithms (ga), particle swarm optimization (pso) and modified particle swarm optimization (mpso), a single phase induction motor (spim) was designed with the maximum efficiency. the finite element method (fem)...

Catastrophic flooding resulting from extreme meteorological events has occurred more frequently and drawn great attention in recent years in China. In coastal areas, extreme precipitation and storm tide are both inducing factors of flooding and therefore their joint probability would be critical to determine the flooding risk. The impact of storm tide or changing environment on flooding is igno...

Localization-based super-resolution microscopy such as STORM and (F)PALM has advanced the resolution of optical microscopy up to tens of nanometers. Those techniques capture thousands of images and computationally locates sparsely-excited single molecules at sub-pixel level. The estimated locations are accumulated from the multiple images to reconstruct a single image achieving spatial resoluti...

There are large uncertainties in the circulation response of the atmosphere to climate change. 6 One manifestation of this is the substantial spread in projections for the extratropical storm tracks made 7 by different state-of-the-art climate models. In this study we perform a series of sensitivity experiments, 8 with the atmosphere component of a single climate model, in order to identify the...

in this paper, a neural network model reference adaptive system speed observer is designed, which can be used in speed control of linear induction motors (lims). dynamical equations of lim have been considered accurate. in other words, the end effect and the electrical losses of the motor have been included in the motor equivalent circuit. then equations of the reference model and adaptive mode...
