Resistorless floating immittance function simulators employing current controlled conveyors and a grounded capacitor

In this paper, new floating immittance function simulators employing second-generation current controlled conveyors are proposed. The first four of the presented circuits employ only a single grounded capacitor as passive component and can realize either a negative or a positive floating inductor or capacitor. The last two of the proposed circuits do not employ passive components and can realize either negative or positive floating resistances. All of the proposed circuits do not require passive element matching. As an application, a third-order butterworth filter is realized using the proposed positive floating inductance simulator. SPICE simulation results and large signal behavior of the filter are included.     

Parallel-machine rescheduling with machine disruptions

In this study we consider a rescheduling problem on identical parallel machines. The rescheduling is undertaken because of a period of unavailability on one of the machines. We consider the total flow time as an efficiency measure and stability is gauged in terms of the number of jobs processed on different machines in the original and new schedules. We show that all efficient schedules with respect to efficiency and stability measures can be generated in polynomial time.     

Effect of single and multi-channel electrodes application on EDM fast hole drilling performance

In diesel engines, it is inevitable that the torsional vibration is produced by the fluctuation of engine torque. Therefore, it is necessary to establish preventive measures to diminish the torsional vibration. A sleeve spring damper is one such measure to reduce the torsional vibration. In this study, the closed form equations to predict the spring constant of a sleeve spring and the dynamic characteristics of the torsional vibration damper are proposed to calculate stiffness of the damper, and verified their availability through the finite element analysis. Our theoretical values are in good agreement with results obtained from finite element analysis and experiments. Results obtained from the derived equation enable designers to be more efficient.     

High output impedance current-mode lowpass,bandpass and highpass filters using current controlled conveyors

Three new current-mode second-order filter configurations which employ one or two current controlled conveyors (CCCIIs) and three passive elements are presented. Each proposed filter can realize one of the bandpass, lowpass or highpass responses all at high impedance outputs. The proposed filters offer current-control of pole angular frequency ω_o without disturbing the parameter ω_o /Q. No component matching is required and all the passive and active sensitivities are low. PSPICE simulation results are given to confirm the theoretical analysis.     

A Novel Grounded Inductor Realization Using a Minimum Number of Active and Passive Components

In this study, we present a new topology for realizing a grounded inductor employing only a single current conveyor, called a negative‐type modified inverting second‐generation current conveyor (MICCII‐), and a minimum number of passive components, two resistors, and one capacitor. The non‐ideality effects of the MICCII‐on a simulated inductor are investigated. To demonstrate the performance of the presented inductance simulator, we use it to construct a third order Butterworth high‐pass filter and a parallel resonant circuit. Simulation results are given to confirm the theoretical analysis.
