The current wave form of active boost PFC is simulated in time domain and frequency domain. With the voltage of 220 v, the inductance of 15 mH, the capacitance of 5040 μF, the load of 2500 W, the integrated power factor, fundamental power factor, and distortion are analyzed. The distortion is enhanced with the increase of frequency. Comparing high-order harmonic part under 10 mH and 15 Mh, it is demonstrated that the appropriate OFF phase angle changes with different requirement: the angle is 37 degree with distortion in least while the one is 34 degree with maximum integrated power factor. Topology and results are proposed. The results demonstrate that the power factor of real PFC circuit is up to 0.975.

Abstract This paper addresses the performance evaluation of an empirical time domain Vortex Induced Vibrations (VIV) model which has been developed for several years at NTNU. Unlike the frequency domain which is the existing VIV analysis method, the time domain model introduces new vortex shedding force terms to the well known Morison equation. The extra load terms are based on the relative velocity, a synchronization model and additional empirical coefficients that describe the hydrodynamic forces due to cross-flow (CF) and In-line (IL) vortex shedding. These hydrodynamic coefficients have been tuned to fit experimental data and by considering the results from the one of existing frequency domain VIV programs, VIVANA, which is widely used for industrial design. The feature of the time domain model is that it enables to include the structural non-linearity, such as variable tension, and time-varying flow. The robustness of the new model’s features has been validated by comparing the test results in previous researches. However, the riser used in experiments has a relatively small length/diameter (L/D) ratio. It implies that there is a need for more validation to make it applicable to real riser design. In this study, the time domain VIV model is applied to perform correlation studies against the Hanøytangen experiment data for the case of linear sheared current at a large L/D ratio. The main comparison has been made with respect to the maximum fatigue damage and dominating frequency for each test condition. The results show the time domain model showed reasonable accuracy with respect to the experimental and VIVANA. The discrepancy with regard to experiment results needs to be further studied with a non-linear structural model.

This study presents an approach to intelligent fault prediction based on time-domain and frequency-domain (FFT phase angle and PSD) statistical analysis, Principal component analysis (PCA) and adaptive Neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS). After vibration data acquisition, the approach consists of three stages is conducted. First, different features, including time-domain statistical characteristics, and frequency-domain statistical characteristics are extracted to get more fault detection information. Second, three components by a principal component analysis are obtained from the original feature set. Finally, these three components are inputted into ANFIS for a development model of identifying different abnormal cases. The proposed approach is applied to fault diagnosis of gearbox's number one gear of MF285 tractor, and the testing results show that the proposed model can reliably predict different fault categories and severities.

Power quality of distribution network is an emerging issue due to rapid increase in usage of non-linear loads on the one hand and utilization of sensitive devices on the other hand. Especially, harmonic emission is an important concern in both electric utilities and end users of electric power. Therefore, an accurate and rapid harmonic analysis method is of interest. New technologies have enabled the investigation of electricity consumption mode at an unprecedented scale and in multiple dimensions. However, an effective method that can capture the complexity of all the factors relevant to understanding a phenomenon such as ultrahigh harmonics (2–15 kHz). How to detect the super high order harmonic accurately has become the premise and foundation of the study of super high order harmonic. The key challenge in developing such approaches is the identification of effective models to provide a comprehensive and relevant systems view. An ideal method can identify super high harmonics and predict outcomes, by measured data across several dimensions variation. In this paper, the data integration, current methods and available implementation is discussed. Finally, the current challenges in integrative methods is discussed.

The increasing application of composites in the aviation and automobile industry demands a better understanding of composite material behavior under high loading rate. This shall provide a better insight of actual loads on occupants while preserving livable crashworthy structure. In this study, a high stroke rate MTS servo-hydraulic testing machine is used to characterize the behavior of composite materials at high strain rates. At higher stroke rates, the output of the load detection system acquired by the load cell deviates from the true load-time wave form of the specimen. This is due to the convolution of the structural response of the detection system with the true characteristic of the specimen. To identify the true nature of the specimen load-time behavior, the de-convolution of the detection system response is necessary to restore the specimen characteristic wave form closer to its true behavior. The convolution of data set in the time domain is a time consuming process which explains the benefit of using the frequency domain; as the convolution in time domain corresponds to multiplication in the frequency domain. This process requires the transformation of the time domain data to frequency domain data via Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). In the frequency domain the complex division of the Fourier transfer of the detection system output with frequency response function of the detection system shall provide the true complex input characteristic. This paper elaborates the methodology utilized for obtaining the Frequency Response Function (FRF) of the load detection system using digital Fourier analysis with a single input/output data set. This also emphasizes precautions and guidelines for improving results with FFT to obtain true FRF measurements of the load detection system. The FRF obtained is successfully used to identify the actual specimen wave form characteristic. This is achieved by extracting the structural response of the load detection system from the load cell output.

Ultrafast spectroscopy is capable of monitoring electronic and vibrational states. For electronic states a few eV apart, an X-ray laser source is required. We propose an alternative method based on the time-domain high-order harmonic spectroscopy where a coherent superposition of the electronic states is first prepared by the strong optical laser pulse. The coherent dynamics can then be probed by the higher-order harmonics generated by the delayed probe pulse. The high nonlinearity typically modeled by the three-step mechanism introduced by Lewenstein and Corkum can serve as a recipe for generation of the coherent excitation with broad bandwidth. The main advantage of the method is that only optical (non–X-ray) lasers are needed. A semiperturbative model based on the Liouville space superoperator approach is developed for the bookkeeping of the different orders of the nonlinear response for the high-order harmonic generation using multiple pulses. Coherence between bound electronic states is monitored in the harmonic spectra from both first- and second-order responses.

In recent years, an increasing interest has been devoted to bistatic SAR configurations, which can be effectively used to improve system performance and/or to increase the amount of physical information retrievable from the observed scene. Within this context, the availability of simulation tools is of paramount importance, for both mission planning and processing algorithm verification and testing. In this paper, a time domain simulator useful to obtain the point-spread function and the raw signal for the generic bistatic SAR configuration is presented. Moreover, we focus on the case of two bistatic configurations, which are of considerable interest in actual SAR applications, i.e., the translational invariant SAR and the one-stationary SAR acquisition geometries, for which we obtain meaningful expressions of the Transfer Functions. In particular, these expressions are formally equal to those obtained for the monostatic SAR configuration, so that the already available monostatic simulator can be easily adapted to these bistatic cases. The point-target raw signals obtained using the (exact) time domain simulator and the (approximated) frequency domain one are compared, with special attention to acquisition geometries that may be of practical interest in Formation-Flying SAR applications. Results show that the phase difference between raw signals simulated with the two approaches is, in all cases, smaller (and often much smaller) than about 10 degrees, except that at the very edge of the raw signals, where however, it does not exceed about 50 degrees.
