An Improved Torque Sharing Function to Minimize Torque Ripple and Increase Average Torque for Switched Reluctance Motor Drives

Abstract—This article presents a novel torque ripple minimization approach based on the genetic algorithm (GA) for the switched reluctance motor (SRM) drives. The fitness function of the GA is designed on the basis of two main optimization criteria. The first optimization criteria; three objectives are defined to optimize commutation angles minimizing torque ripple and copper loss. The second optimization criteria; an objective is defined to eliminate the negative torque which decreases the average torque in SRM drives. The achievement of all objectives depends on the adjusting appropriate the commutation angles of the torque sharing functions (TSF) during the commutation period. All of conventional TSFs are dependent on three different commutation angles, namely turn-on, turn-off, and overlapping. Due to the nonlinear phase inductances of SRM, the delay of current rising and falling time are not unity in overlapping commutation region. To overcome the separation of the incoming and outgoing phase currents during the commutation region, rise angle, and fall angle are used instead of overlapping angle. GA is used to optimize the commutation angles of conventional (sinusoidal) TSF and improved (sinusoidal) TSF. At the same time, the elimination negative torque effects on torque ripple, average torque, and copper loss is investigated.     

Organic Nanoparticles with Polypropyleneoxide Chains as Support for Metallocene Catalysts: Ethylene Homopolymerization and Ethylene/α-olefin Copolymerization

Summary Novel organic nanoparticles functionalized with nucleophilic polypropyleneoxide (PPO) chains on their surfaces for supporting metallocene catalysts in heterogeneous olefin polymerization are presented. The nanoparticles (60–100 nm) were obtained by miniemulsion polymerization of styrene, divinylbenzene and PPO functionalized styrene. It is demonstrated that Me₂Si(2MeBenzlnd)₂ZrCl₂/MAO supported on these nanoparticles is suitable for the homopolymerization of ethylene, resulting in excellent product morphologies and high activities. lt is shown that by varying the MAO/Zr ratios and Zr concentrations the activities and productivities of the catalysts as well as the qualities of the polyethylene products can be tuned. These new supported catalysts are also suitable for the copolymerization of ethylene with several comonomers (1-hexene, 1-octene, 1-decene or norbornene). As the obtained product properties like crystallinity, melting temperature or bulk density match the results of silica supported systems, these organic nanoparticles can be considered as alternative carriers in comparison to the established inorganic ones.     

Characterization of nanocomposite resol resins: Individual/synergist effects of alendronic acid and sepiolite

Alendronic acid modified resol nanocomposite resins (AA‐PFNCRs) and sepiolite modified resol nanocomposite resins (SEP‐PFNCRs) have been synthesized by in situ method in the presence of base catalyst. Additionally, the synergistic effects of alendronic acid and sepiolite clay (AA‐SEP‐PFNCR) on the resol resin have been studied. The structure, morphology, and thermal properties of these nanocomposites have been investigated by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), and X‐ray Diffraction (XRD). The results demonstrated the interactions between the fillers and resol resin. Thermal properties of nanocomposite resins were improved due to alendronic acid and sepiolite. The obtained samples were also characterized morphologically by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2016 , 133, 43807.     

Effect of intracanal medicaments on the push-out bond strength of Biodentine in comparison with Bioaggregate apical plugs

To evaluate the effect of intracanal medicaments on the push-out bond strength of Biodentine in comparison with DiaRoot BioAggregate (BA) when used as apical plugs. Forty single-rooted teeth were prepared using Peeso reamers. The samples were divided into four groups. The intracanal medicaments were applied to the root canals as follows: Group1: a combination of metronidazole–ciprofloxacin–cefaclor, Group2: a combination of metronidazole–ciprofloxacin, Group3: calcium hydroxide, and Group4: no medication. After 21 days, the medicaments were removed. The apical part of each root was horizontally sectioned into 1-mm thick slices. The samples were divided into two subgroups, and the following materials were placed: Biodentine, DiaRoot-BioAggregate. After 48-h incubation, the push-out bond strength was measured. The data were analyzed by a two-way ANOVA. Biodentine showed a significantly higher mean push-out bond strength value than DiaRoot-BioAggregate (P = 0.00). The medications have an effect on the push-out bond strength of both materials (P = 0.002). Biodentine showed better adhesive performance as an apical plug than DiaRoot-BioAggregate.     

Comparison of the mechanical and biological properties of self-adhering materials

Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to compare the Vickers hardness numbers (VHNs), roughness numbers (RNs) and biological compatibility of glass carbomer (Glass Fill), resin-modified glass ionomer (Fuji II LC) and self-adhering flowable composite (Vertise Flow) materials. Materials and methods: Disc-shaped specimens of test materials (n = 15/group) were prepared, and VHNs and RNs were determined after 24 h. A direct contact test was used for cytotoxicity evaluation. Cell viability was measured for 24 h post-exposition with a photometric test (MTT assay; n = 16). Data were analysed using one-way analysis of variance with a post hoc Tukey’s test, the Kruskal–Wallis test and the Mann–Whitney U-test (p < 0.05). Results: Fuji II LC had the highest VHN. The VHN of Fuji II LC differed significantly from those of the other materials (p < 0.05). The RNs of Fuji II and Glass Fill were higher than that of Vertise Flow (p < 0.05). The self-adhering materials were not significantly cytotoxic compared with the control group (p > 0.05). Conclusions: The materials tested in this study showed a similar lack of cytotoxicity. The VHN of Fuji II LC was the highest, and the RN of Vertise Flow was the lowest.     

Thermal-tempering analysis of bulk metallic glass plates using an instant-freezing model

The viscoelastic nature of bulk metallic glasses (BMGs), their low thermal conductivity, and the fast cooling used in their processing subject them to thermal tempering. This process leads to a residual stress state in which compression on the surface is balanced by tension in the interior. For the first time, we have calculated such stresses in metallic glasses by adapting an analytical instant-freezing model previously developed for silicate glasses. This model has been demonstrated to be reasonably accurate in predicting the final residual stresses, although, due to its very nature, it neglects transient effects. For an infinite plate geometry and employing processing parameters often used for metallic glasses, we predict that significant residual stresses can be generated in these materials during thermal tempering. Preliminary measurements conducted using the layer-removal method yield compressive residual stress values close to model predictions.
