in this study, an extended stress-based forming limit diagram (fld) for prediction of necking based on the marciniak and kucznski (m-k) model is represented and applied in tube hydroforming. the bulge forming of a straight tube is simulated by finite element method and verified with published experimental data. this adaptive simulation technique is based on the ability to detect the onset and g...

in a mobile ad hoc network, there are some features such as the ability to exploit multipath effect for information exchange with high reliability and low error rate. dealing with the aggressors and discovering the path in data transmission are of importance. approaching these goals ends in network promotion and efficiency. in this paper, the designed protocol is able to discover multipath fo...

a critical protection requirement for grid connected distributed generators (dg) is anti-islanding protection. in this paper, a new islanding detection method for any possible network loading is proposed based on utilizing and combining various system parameter indices. in order to secure the detection of islanding, eight intentional disturbances are imposed to the system under study in which t...

A number of in vivo skeletal loading models have been developed to test specific hypotheses addressing the key mechanical and biochemical signals involved in bone's adaptive response to loading. Exercise protocols, osteotomy procedures, loading of surgically implanted pins, and force application through the soft tissues are common approaches to alter the mechanical environment of a bone. Althou...

Adaptive beamfomer which utilizes MVDR beamformer along with SMI (sample matrix inversion), actual data is not available to calculate the covariance matrix. Instead, covariance matrix is estimated from the available data. It may result in bad conditioning. To avoid this, diagonal elements are introduced in the correlation matrix, which is called diagonal loading. Diagonal loading can be inserte...

Diagonal loading imparts Robustness to the adaptive beamformer against signal mismatch due to low sample support. It helps to achieve desired sidelobe level and to improve Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR). In this paper, variants of Minimum Variance Distortionless Response-Sample Matrix Inversion (MVDR-SMI) beamformer with diagonal loading are analyzed. A novel hybrid algorithm, M...

Adaptive Bit Loading (ABL) in Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) is often used to achieve the desired Bit Error Rate (BER) performance in wireless systems. In this paper, we discuss some of the bit loading algorithms, compare them in terms of the BER performance, and present an effective and concise Adaptive Grouped Loading (AGL) algorithm. Fur...

nonlinear static procedure (nsp) is a common technique to predict seismic demands on various building structures by subjecting a monotonically increasing horizontal loading (pushover) to the structure. therefore, the pushover analysis is an important part of each nsp. accordingly, the current paper aims at investigating the efficiencyof various algorithms of lateral load patterns applied to the...
