A general design method for electric machines using magnetic circuit model considering the flux saturation problem

This paper proposes an analytical approach that is generalized for the design of various types of electric machines based on a physical magnetic circuit model. Conventional approaches have been used to predict the behavior of electric machines but have limitations in accurate flux saturation analysis and hence machine dimensioning at the initial design stage. In particular, magnetic saturation is generally ignored or compensated by correction factors in simplified models since it is difficult to determine the flux in each stator tooth for machines with any slot-pole combinations. In this paper, the flux produced by stator winding currents can be calculated accurately and rapidly for each stator tooth using the developed model, taking saturation into account. This aids machine dimensioning without the need for a computationally expensive finite element analysis (FEA). A 48-slot machine operated in induction and doubly-fed modes is used to demonstrate the proposed model. FEA is employed for verification.

Una teoría general para la enseñanza del derecho civil : una propuesta para el Bicentenario

Resumen: El presente trabajo propone elementos para una reformulación de la enseñanza del Derecho Civil en la Argentina del Bicentenario. Parte del análisis del estado actual de la enseñanza en esta rama jurídica, con especial referencia a sus etapas históricas. Considera luego lo que se denomina “el modelo del cententario”, con particular atención a la influencia de la modernidad ilustrada y la cultura del Código. Evalúa luego la cuestión a partir de la tensión entre modernidad ilustrada y posmodernidad, proponiendo una alternativa al modelo de enseñanza surgido de la posmodernidad. Como hipótesis de trabajo propone una lectura de la denominada cultura jurídica desde los principios del derecho, y aportar así una alternativa desde la perspectiva del realismo jurídico clásico.

Sequential decision making in general state space models

Many problems in control and signal processing can be formulated as sequential decision problems for general state space models. However, except for some simple models one cannot obtain analytical solutions and has to resort to approximation. In this thesis, we have investigated problems where Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods can be combined with a gradient based search to provide solutions to online optimisation problems. We summarise the main contributions of the thesis as follows. Chapter 4 focuses on solving the sensor scheduling problem when cast as a controlled Hidden Markov Model. We consider the case in which the state, observation and action spaces are continuous. This general case is important as it is the natural framework for many applications. In sensor scheduling, our aim is to minimise the variance of the estimation error of the hidden state with respect to the action sequence. We present a novel SMC method that uses a stochastic gradient algorithm to find optimal actions. This is in contrast to existing works in the literature that only solve approximations to the original problem. In Chapter 5 we presented how an SMC can be used to solve a risk sensitive control problem. We adopt the use of the Feynman-Kac representation of a controlled Markov chain flow and exploit the properties of the logarithmic Lyapunov exponent, which lead to a policy gradient solution for the parameterised problem. The resulting SMC algorithm follows a similar structure with the Recursive Maximum Likelihood(RML) algorithm for online parameter estimation. In Chapters 6, 7 and 8, dynamic Graphical models were combined with with state space models for the purpose of online decentralised inference. We have concentrated more on the distributed parameter estimation problem using two Maximum Likelihood techniques, namely Recursive Maximum Likelihood (RML) and Expectation Maximization (EM). The resulting algorithms can be interpreted as an extension of the Belief Propagation (BP) algorithm to compute likelihood gradients. In order to design an SMC algorithm, in Chapter 8 uses a nonparametric approximations for Belief Propagation. The algorithms were successfully applied to solve the sensor localisation problem for sensor networks of small and medium size.

Zoología general

Es una asignatura básica en la formación del ingeniero en Recursos Naturales Renovables y tiene como precedencia los conocimientos de las asignaturas de Biología; Introducción a los Recursos Naturales; Botánica Básica y Ecología. Además sirve de base a diferentes asignaturas tanto básicas como específicas, ya que en ella se imparten conocimientos técnicos al estudiante con el fin de que pueda desarrollarse de manera satisfactoria en otros cursos afines a su carrera. La zoología brinda conocimientos, para poder analizar, comprender e interpretar procesos que favorecen en parte el desarrollo de un hábitat adecuado, además se estudia de manera general a las principales especies animales que causan daño o beneficio directo e indirectamente a las distintas especies animales y vegetales. Lo mismo que aquellas que por su naturaleza de hábito alimenticio contribuyen a la diseminación de frutos y semillas, también a las que se catalogan como plagas en los sistemas agroforestales.

An overview of sequential Monte Carlo methods for parameter estimation in general state-space models

Nonlinear non-Gaussian state-space models arise in numerous applications in control and signal processing. Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods, also known as Particle Filters, are numerical techniques based on Importance Sampling for solving the optimal state estimation problem. The task of calibrating the state-space model is an important problem frequently faced by practitioners and the observed data may be used to estimate the parameters of the model. The aim of this paper is to present a comprehensive overview of SMC methods that have been proposed for this task accompanied with a discussion of their advantages and limitations.

Waverider configurations derived from general conical flowfields

A method based on the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is presented for a flexible waverider's design. The generating bodies of this method could be any cones. In addition, either the leading edge or the profile of the scramjet's inlet is used as the waverider's definition curve, parameterized by the quadric function, the sigmoid function or the B-spline function. Furthermore, several numerical examples are carried out to validate the method and the relevant codes. The CFD results of the configurations show that all the designs are successful. Moreover, primary suggestions are proposed for practical design by comparing the geometrical and aerodynamic performances of the cone-derived waveriders at Mach 6.
