This paper presents a general approach to the optimized design of a series of interior permanent magnet motors with the same lamination cross section. A concept of a referent and particular design has been introduced and analytical expressions which relate the principal machine parameters for the referent and particular machine have been derived. The referent design can be optimized according to a certain criterion which automatically yields the optimal design of the entire series. The particular designs are then obtained from the referent design by varying the stack length, the number of turns per coil and the number of parallel circuits. In order to demonstrate the correctness of the derived design principles the optimized design of a referent machine with IEC frame size 160 has been made by combining the finite-element method and Differential Evolution optimization algorithm from which five particular designs with power ratings ranging from 15 kW to 110 kW have been derived.

This study aimed to test a protocol of measurements based on Biophotogrammetry to Analysis of Respiratory Mechanics (BARM) in healthy children. Seventeen normal spirometric children (six male and 11 female) were tested. Their performed maneuvers of forced inspiratory vital capacity were recorded in the supine position. The images were acquired by a digital camera, laterally placed to the trunk. Surface markers allowed that the files, exported to CorelDraw (R) software, were processed by irregular trapezoids paths. Compartments were defined in the thoracic (TX), abdominal (AB) and the chest wall (CW). They were defined at the end of an inspiration and expiration, both maximum, controlled by a digital spirometer. The result showed that the measured areas at the inspiratory and expiratory periods were statistically different (p<0.05). It reflects the mobility of CW and compartments. In conclusion, the proposed method can identify the breathing pattern of the measured subject using images in two dimensions (2D).

In this paper, a neural network PCA method that integrates neural networks (NN) and principal component analysis (PCA) is used to detect faults in a wastewater treatment plant. The neural networks are used to calculate a non-linear and dynamic model of the process in normal operating conditions. PCA is used to generate monitoring charts based on the residuals calculated as the difference between the process measurements and the output of the networks. It can evaluate the current performance of the process and detects the faults. This technique has been applied to the simulation of a benchmark of a biological wastewater treatment process, a highly non-linear process. The simulation results clearly show the advantages of using this NNPCA monitoring in comparison with classical PCA monitoring.

The lower Sg. Piah hydro-electric station is a river run-off hydro scheme with generators capable of generating 55MW of electricity. It is located 30km away from Sg. Siput, a small town in the state of Perak, Malaysia. The station has two turbines (Pelton) to harness energy from water that flow through a 7km tunnel from a small intake dam. The trait of a run-off river hydro station is small-reservoir that cannot store water for a long duration; therefore potential energy carried by the spillage will be wasted if the dam level is not appropriately regulated. To improve the station annual energy output, a new controller based on the computed river flow has been installed. The controller regulates the dam level with an algorithm based on the river flow derived indirectly from the intake-dam water level and other plant parameters. The controller has been able to maintain the dam at optimum water level and regulate the turbines to maximize the total generation output.

This paper addresses the fault estimation problem for discrete-time dynamic systems. First, using a specific system decomposition, we propose a new reduced-order fault estimation observer (RFEO) with multiconstrained idea. A detailed discussion of the RFEO is given. Then, with the help of the slack-variable technique, fault estimation performances are further enhanced to reduce the conservatism generated by the direct design method. Simulation results of a discrete-time aircraft application are presented to illustrate our contributions.

In this work we have composed an innovative environment for the development of interactive TV applications. This has been evaluated in the context of laboratory exercises by students. We present the environment as well as the results gained when the students changed their role from passive TV viewers to application developers.
