Finishing hot mill width models are researched and developed in this paper. Some common reasons of width change in the finishing mill are introduced. Introduced some models related to finishing hot mill strip width which are used in our finishing mill setup model system for width prediction.

This paper presents an experimental study of the possibility of transition from multiple macro-cracking to multiple micro-cracking in cementitious composites. Conventional polyvinyl alcohol fiber reinforced cementitious composites normally exhibit macroscopic strain-hardening and multiple cracking after the first cracks appear. However, the individual crack width at the saturated stage is normally...Show More
We investigate the 130nm (1.2V) and 280nm (2.5V) CMOS linear threshold voltage (Vtlin) and normalized saturation drain current (Idsat) versus channel width. Plots of Vtlin and Idsat versus channel width for different lengths are used to show the complex behavior as the channel width decreases. Both NMOS and PMOS Vtlin reach a maximum and then decrease as the width goes to W = 0.15/spl mu/m. NMOS V...Show More

Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) inverters are most commonly used for grid interfacing in renewable energy systems and for speed control of induction motors in Variable Frequency Drives (VFD), wherein the control computations are implemented in digital signal controllers (sample-based in nature) and are highly complicated.

Advanced modulation techniques in multilevel inverters (MLIs) have been explored to increase inverter performance by reducing switching losses, voltage, and current ripple of the dc-link capacitor. Discontinuous pulse width modulation (DPWM) is able to reduce power losses by decreasing the number of switching transitions per cycle; however, it increases the neutral current, resulting in higher rip...Show More
An induction motor drive based on inverter regulates its speed of rotation wherein the inverter plays an instrumental role. In an inverter based induction motor drive, the supply voltage and frequency is varied for controlling the motor's speed. In this drive, the inverter performs the conversion of fixed dc voltage to ac voltage having variable frequency. It also contains a speed sensor for measu...Show More

The Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) provides an advanced and economical solution for voltage sag/swell problems. The voltage-restoration process involves real-power injection into the distribution system.

The IDVR consists of several DVRs connected to different distribution feeders...Show More
The use of a split-source inverter (SSI) has gained popularity due to its ability to achieve boost operation without requiring additional active semiconductor switches. This results in lower costs, reduced complexity, and a smaller overall size compared to two-stage inverter topologies. The SSI is particularly well-suited for low-voltage-fed applications and offers advantages over other single-sta...Show More
Most pulse width characterization circuits measure single-event transients (SETs) using a target circuit consisting of long inverter chains or temporal latches exposed to heavy-ions over extended periods of time. For these approaches, circuit-level effects eliminate shorter pulses due to prolonged heavy-ion exposure providing the worst case estimate of measurable transients. Simulation results in ...Show More

Slotless-type motors have a very constant torque without cogging torque because the windings are arranged in the gap of the stator. In addition, since there is no stator teeth structure, reduces harmonic generation, and the eddy current loss of the permanent magnet and iron loss are small, resulting in high efficiency. However, slotless motors generate large current harmonics due to their low indu...Show More

It is also observed that this incre...Show More
In order to solve the inherent problem of ‘even power distribution’ or ‘dc-link capacitor voltage balance’ in the cascaded H-Bridge topology, the so called drive signal exchange scheme is always employed. However, the conventional exchange scheme ignores the problem of extra switching during the execution process which increases switching losses. The cause of switching cost increase during exchang...Show More
To satisfy the demand for more compact medium-voltage motor drive systems, it is desirable to increase the frequency of the cascaded H-bridge inverters used in high-speed motor systems. However, in asynchronous pulse width modulation (PWM) systems, as the output frequency increases, the command voltage and triangular wave carrier frequencies get closer, making it impossible to accurately output th...Show More
