This paper is devoted to designing higher-order adaptive PID controllers as a new generation of PID controllers for chaos synchronization, in which second order integration and second-order derivative terms to the PID controller (PII2DD2) are employed. The five PII2DD2 control gains are updated online with a stable adaptation law driven by Lyapunov’s stability theory. This is the unique advantage of the proposed approach. Furthermore, it is equipped with a novel robust control term to improve controller robustness against system uncertainties and unknown disturbances. An important feature of the proposed approach is that it is a model-free controller. In addition, to determine the control design parameters and avoid trial and error, the Teaching–learning-based optimization algorithm (TLBO) is employed to regulate these parameters and enhance the performance of the proposed controller. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, it is proven that the proposed control scheme can guarantee the synchronization and the stability of closed-loop control system. The case study is the Duffing–Holmes oscillator. Comparative simulation results are presented which confirm the superiority of the proposed approach. 相似文献
Triple band-rejection MIMO/Diversity UWB antenna characteristics are described in this paper. Proposed antenna discards worldwide interoperability for microwave access WiMAX band from 3.3 to 3.6 GHz, wireless local area network WLAN band from 5 to 6 GHz and X-Band satellite downlink communication band from 7.1 to 7.9 GHz. Mushroom Electromagnetic Band Gap (EBG) structures helps to attain band notches in WiMAX and WLAN bands. Uniplanar plus shaped EBG structure is used for notch in X-band downlink satellite communication band. Decoupling strips and slotted ground plane are employed to develop the isolation among two closely spaced UWB monopoles. The individual monopoles are 90° angularly separated with stepped structure which helps to reduce mutual coupling and also contributes towards impedance matching by increasing current path length. Mutual coupling magnitude of more than 15 dB is found over whole UWB frequency range. The Envelope Correlation Coefficient is less than 0.02 over whole UWB frequency range.The variations in the notched frequency with the variations in mushroom EBG structure parameters are investigated.The antenna has been designed using FR-4 substrate and overall dimensions is (64 × 45 × 1.6) mm3. 相似文献
As power consumption results in greenhouse gas emissions and energy costs for operators, analyzing power consumption in wireless networks and portable devices is of crutial importance. Due to environmental effects resulted from energy generation and exploitation as well as the cost of surging energy, energy-aware wireless systems attract unprecedented attention. Cognitive Radio (CR) is one of the optimal solutions that allows for energy savings on both the networks and devices. Thus, cognitive radio contributes to increase spectral and energy efficiency as well as reduction in power consumption. In addition, energy consumption of the CR technologies as intelligent technology should be considered to realize the green networks objective. In this article, we look into energy efficiency of the cognitive wireless network paradigms. Moreover, energy efficiency analysis and modelling in these systems are specifically focused on achieving green communications objectives. However, CRs by altering all elements of wireless data communications are considered in this paper, and the energy-efficient operation and energy efficiency enabler perspectives of CRs are also analyzed.
The main objective of this work was reducing the heat loss of styrene butadiene rubber by partial substitution of carbon black with natural zeolite as a filler. Reducing the usage of carbon black in the rubber industry is a good strategy to decrease fossil fuel usage and global warming. There are different mineral fillers like silica and clay to be used instead of carbon black. Effect of application of natural zeolite on reducing the heat loss of rubber compound based on SBR was investigated by melt mixing of natural zeolite in rubber matrix in an internal mixer. Natural zeolite was selected as 5, 10, 15, and 20 phr. Carbon black was partially substituted with zeolite and the effect of natural zeolite content and structure on different aspects of the compound including heat buildup, hardness, elongation, and modulus were evaluated. It was shown that although cross-link density and mechanical properties of the compounds decreased a little, but a significant improvement was observed in the fatigue resistance of the compounds beside a favorable decrease in the heat buildup and abrasion loss with an increase in the natural zeolite loading. The rate of improvement in properties was slowed down at zeolite contents higher than 5 phr. 相似文献
Disaster-related simulations can be helpful for conducting various analysis on damage evaluations and response operations in damaged facilities. However, no single simulation can solve all the functional needs for complex disaster situations due to diverse disasters, damage types, and response efforts. To address these issues, the authors have developed a distributed simulation platform for a comprehensive analysis of facility damage and response operations, which can be flexibly applied to diverse disaster situations. The High Level Architecture is adopted to synchronize different federates such as simulation models and incoming data streams within an interoperable simulation environment. The developed simulation platform includes five different disaster-related federates such as the Fire Dynamics Simulator, USGS earthquake data feeds, OpenSees structure response simulation, evacuation simulation, and restoration simulation. The accuracy of interactions among different federates was confirmed with the case simulations of a facility fire evacuation and an earthquake restoration situation. The developed platform provides a flexible and interoperable distributed simulation environment for comprehensive disaster response management of unexpected disaster situations while promoting reusability and future extendibility of existing and newly-added disaster-related simulations. 相似文献
A new rapid and facile strategy for the preparation of Pd-Ni/G and Pd-Cu/G catalysts with a three-dimensional porous structure are presented in this paper. Both catalysts are formed using the same strategies in two steps: 1) The reduction of Ni(OH)2 and Cu(OH)2 to the metallic form on the surface of G/GC Electrode using the Zn/HCl reducer, 2) The galvanic displacement of Ni and Cu by Pd2+. Afterwards, three-dimensional Pd nanonetwork is generated on the glassy carbon electrode via the galvanic displacement. Compared to the other routes, this strategy depicts several advantages (e.g. fast way, facile, surfactant and reductant free, cheap, and eco-friendly.) Both catalysts are applied towards Ethanol Oxidation Reaction (EOR). Both porous structures show higher electrocatalytic activity and stability toward EOR compared to the commercial Pd/C. The extraordinary catalytic activity and durability of the both proposed catalysts for EOR can be related to the two vital reasons:1) The combination of Ni and Cu with Pd will efficiently promote the catalytic performance of Pd-Ni/G and Pd-Cu/G samples due to synergetic effects. 2) The porous structure of the as-prepared catalysts renders a high surface area and leads easier mass transport through the pores. 相似文献
Laminar mixed convection of a nanofluid consisting of water and Al2O3 in an inclined tube with heating at the top half surface of a copper tube has been studied numerically. The bottom half of
the tube wall is assumed to be adiabatic (presenting a tube of a solar collector). Heat conduction mechanism through the tube
wall is considered. Three-dimensional governing equations with using two-phase mixture model have been solved to investigate
hydrodynamic and thermal behaviours of the nanofluid over wide range of nanoparticle volume fractions. For a given nanoparticle
mean diameter the effects of nanoparticle volume fractions on the hydrodynamics and thermal parameters are presented and discussed
at different Richardson numbers and different tube inclinations. Significant augmentation on the heat transfer coefficient
as well as on the wall shear stress is seen. 相似文献
In this study, combustion synthesis of cerium oxide nanoparticles was reported using cerium nitrate hexahydrate as starting material as well as urea, glycine, glucose, and citric acid as fuels. The influence of fuel type on structure, microstructure, band gap, and corrosion inhibition was investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and scanning electron microscopy micrographs showed that CeO2 nanoparticles with different morphologies were obtained depending on the fuel type. Microstructural changes from unreacted gel to sponge-like morphologies were resulted by varying the fuel type from urea, glycine, and glucose to citric acid. In addition to Ce–O bonds, Fourier transform infrared analysis showed carbon bonds of carbonaceous compositions from incomplete combustion which were declined during combustion reaction. Furthermore, corrosion analyses showed that samples synthesized using urea fuel released the most Ce+4 ions and could have better protection than other samples. 相似文献
