Proportional Integral Estimator of the Stator Resistance for Direct Torque Control Induction Motor Drive

10.11591/ijpeds.v8.i4.pp1631-1641
Jagdish Gangadharrao Chaudhari , Sanjay Bhauraoji Bodkhe , Mohan V. Aware
In this paper, an improved proportional integral stator resistance estimation for a direct torque controlled induction motor is proposed. This estimation method is based on an on-line stator resistance correction regarding the variations of the stator current estimation error. In fact, the input variable of the PI estimator is the stator current estimation error. The main idea is to tune accurately the stator resistance value relatively to the evolution of the stator current estimation error gradient to avoid the drive instability and ensure the tracking of the actual value of the stator resistance. But there is an unavoidable steady state error between the filtered stator current modulus and its estimated value from the dq model of the machine which is due to pseudo random commutations of the inverter switches. An offset has been introduced in order to overcome this problem, for different speed command values and load torques. Simulation results show that the proposed estimator was able to successfully track the actual value of the stator resistance for different operating conditions

Customers’ Perception Towards Services of Telecommunications Operators

10.11591/ijict.v6i3.pp146-154
Driss Ait Omar , Mohamed Baslam , Mourad Nachaoui , And Mohamed Fakir
Currently the operators in the telecommunications market present offers of subscription to the consumers,and given that competition is strong in this area, most of these advertising offers are prepared to attract and / or keep customers.For this reason, customers face problems in choosing operators that meet their needs in terms of price, quality of service (QoS), etc..., while taking into account the margin between what is advertising and what is real. Therefore, we are led to solve a problem of decision support. Mathematical modeling of this problem led to the solution of an inverse problem. Specifi-cally, the inverse problem is to find the real Quality of Service (QoS) function knowing the theoretical QoS. To solve this problem we have reformulated in an optimization problem of minimizing the difference between the real quality of service (QoS) and theoretical (QoS). This model will help customers who seek to know the degree of sincerity of Their operators, as well as it is an opportunity for operators who want to maintain their resources so that they gain the trust of customers. The resulting optimization problem is solved using evolutionary algorithms. The numerical results showed the reliability and credibility of our inverse model and the performance and effectiveness of our approach.

Thermal Modelling for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (PMSM)

10.11591/ijpeds.v8.i4.pp1903-1912
R. Aziz , G. J. Atkinson , S. Salimin
It is important to predict the temperature in some of the essential parts in machine design to prevent the machine from any damage. Most researchers usually not given much attention on thermal analysis during machine design as much as the electromagnet design. Therefore, in this study, two types of thermal modelling were proposed to predict the temperature of a permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM). Infolytica ThermNet software has been used since the software is related to Infolytica Magnet and the losses obtained from the electromagnetic field analysis are used as the heat source in the thermal analysis. Comparison has been done between the predicted temperature from lumped parameter model and finite element analysis. The results also will be validated by using experimental setup. Since Infolytica Magnet has been used to analyse the electromagnetic output therefore finite element analysis model is the better choice.

On the Design of a 4 Degrees-of-freedom Pick and Place Cable Suspended Parallel Manipulator

10.11591/ijra.v6i4.pp286-302
F. J. Castillo-Garcia , P. Rea , A. Gonzalez-Rodriguez , E. Ottaviano
This paper proposes the design and control strategy for a four degrees-of-freedom spatial cable-suspended parallel robot for pick and place operations. Pick and place is a repetitive task requiring payload changes for the movement to pick-up the object, and the movement to the nal pose to release the manipulated object. In this paper, a new robust control strategy has been proposed, together with proper trajectories for the required operation. The control strategy consists on the system decoupling and linearization by means of a feedforward term and a cascade PD controller. The main advantage of the proposed solution is that its design can be scalable in size spanning from centimeters to meters with a relatively good positioning accuracy. Finally, simulations are reported to show the overall performances of the proposed con guration for pick and place operations with a medium size manipulator.

10.11591/ijra.v6i4.pp227-233
Reaza Ashrafi Habib Abadi , Amir Nekoubin
This paper presents the capability of a fuzzy logic based stabilizer used for generating the supplementary control signal to voltage regulator of static VAR compensator (SVC) for improving damping oscillations in power systems. Generator speed deviation and line active power were chosen as input signals for the fuzzy logic controller (FLC). The quantity of reactive power supplied/absorbed by SVC is determined based on the two input signal and deviation of terminal voltage at each sampling time. The effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed control is demonstrated with Single Machine Infinite Bus (SMIB) system and multi machine system which show improvement over the use of a fixed parameter controller. It has been observed that a robust controller is obtained with fuzzy logic controller.

The Effects of Students’ Motivational Factors on their Attitudes toward Mathematics

10.11591/ijere.v6i4.10770
Samson Oyelola Oyedeji
Mathematics is the only subject that cut across all sciences; hence the need for students’ positive attitudes toward mathematics cannot be under-estimated. Students’ motivation has been found to be having a positive relationship with the students’ attitudes toward mathematics. The aim of the study was to use path analysis to investigate the type of direct effects the motivational factors have on the students’ attitudes toward mathematics. To do this, twelve senior secondary schools were randomly selected from the Edo State South Senatorial District. Thirty students were randomly selected from each of the schools and a total of three hundred and sixty students were used for the study. A self-designed four-likert scale questionnaire titled “Students’ Motivational factors and Attitudes toward mathematics” was used to gather information from the subjects. Pearson Moment correlation and Regression analysis were used to analyse the data obtained from the questionnaire. The findings of the study revealed that intrinsic, home environment and teacher factors have positive direct effects on the students’ attitudes toward mathematics with intrinsic factor having the strongest and the most significant effect on students’ attitudes toward mathematics. The findings also revealed that peer group factor and school environment factor have negative effects on students’ attitudes toward mathematics. It was also discovered that all the motivational factors have positive and significant relationship with each other except intrinsic and school environment factors that have negative relationship with each other.

The word “Cloud” refers to network or internet. It is present at.remote location. Cloud computing is a latest mechanism used now-a-days for accessing, manipulating and configuring applications online via internet. It allows users for online data storage, various applications and infrastructure. There are few downsides of cloud computing like in public cloud sharing of data, selected data shared with users of various level without confidentiality and privacy of data. Different methods were used to fix this problem like encryption of attribute; encryption of access control but they have their own problems related to big computation for accquiring access structure, invoking and behavior management. So for removing these weakness, the combination of fuzzy-set theory and RSA algorithm has been introduced. Fuzzy-set is used for clustering the data based on their points. Further for privacy, I have included RSA for encryption and decryption of data which is used to store in cloud database. The analysis of my experiment shows the system is efficient, flexible and provides confidentiality of the data.

This article describes the findings of a study aimed at producing a set of cultural literacy-oriented critical reading teaching material. This material is developed as a countermeasure to the increasingly thin sensitivity of society, especially the students toward noble values of religion, custom, and culture. With this material student get a significant critical understanding of the discourse with the content of noble value of Indonesian culture. The understanding is attained by students through active reader strategy. There are four important principles developed in understanding the text through this strategy, namely 1) building basic understanding of the text, 2) conducting reading activities in chronological order of the text, 3) identifying the style and language of the text, and 4) critically deepening the understanding of the text. The emphasis on cultural critical understanding became the focus of this research. Thus, critical reading question technique 501 is required. With this technique student can predict causation, establish logical and emotive understanding, and predict the implications of ideas. The implementation of development of this teaching material is based on the stages of Design Based Research. Data is obtained through expert scales and trials to junior high school students in Bandung. The result of this research is a critical reading textbook based on cultural literacy with active reader strategy that is effective to be used for junior high school students. The implication of this research is the acquisition of students' sensitivity toward noble values of religion, custom, and culture that can be internalized in their lives.

Samina. E. Mubeen , Baseem Khan , R. K. Nema
This paper utilizes the voltage source model of Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) and examines its abilities in mitigating the steady state stability margins of electric power system. It analyzes its behavior for different controls strategies and proposes the most efficient mode of controlling the controller for voltage stability enhancement. A systematic analytical methodology based on the concept of modal analysis of the modified load flow equations is employed to identify the area in a power system which is most prone voltage instability. Also to identify the most effective point of placement for the UPFC, a computer program has been developed using MATLAB. The results of analysis on 14 bus system is presented here as a case study.
