Geometry-Based Statistical Modeling of Non-WSSUS Mobile-to-Mobile Rayleigh Fading Channels
2017
In this paper, we present a novel geometry-based statistical model for small-scale non-wide-sense stationary uncorrelated scattering (non-WSSUS) mobile-to-mobile (M2M) Rayleigh fading channels. The proposed model builds on the principles of plane wave propagation to capture the temporal evolution of the propagation delay and Doppler shift of the received multipath signal. This is different from existing non-WSSUS geometry-based statistical channel models, which are based on a spherical wave propagation approach, that in spite of being more realistic is more mathematically intricate. By considering an arbitrary geometrical configuration of the propagation area, we derive general expressions …
A Unified Disk Scattering Model and Its Angle-of-Departure and Time-of-Arrival Statistics
2013
This paper proposes a novel probability density function (PDF) for the distribution of local scatterers inside a disk centered on the mobile station (MS). The new scattering model is introduced as the unified disk scattering model (UDSM), as it unifies a variety of typical circularly symmetric scattering models into one simple model. By adjusting a designated shape factor controlling the distribution of the scatterers, both the uniform circular and uniform ring scattering models can be obtained as special cases. Furthermore, the original Gaussian and uniform hollow-disk scattering models can be approximated with a high level of accuracy. In addition to these established scattering models, a…
Approach to rotor-shaft hysteretic whirl using Krylov-Bogoliubov techniques
2013
The internal friction associated with the shaft hysteresis or with the possible release of some shrink-fit coupling exerts a destabilizing effect on the over-critical rotor running, but may be efficiently counteracted by other external dissipative sources or by a proper anisotropic configuration of the support stiffness. The present analysis considers a symmetric rotor-shaft system on viscous-flexible supports with different stiffness on two orthogonal planes containing the bearing axis. The internal friction of the shaft is described either by a linear hysteretic model or by a nonlinear Coulombian force contrasting the rotor motion relative to the shaft ends. The nonlinear equations of mo…
A computational magnetohydrodynamic model of a marine propulsion system
2016
In this article we present an approach to the description of Magnetohydrodynamic Propulsion. Preliminarly, an analytical model which includes an electromagnetic model and a thermal model is presented. Successively, in order to move beyond the analytical model, a 3-D MHD modeling tool and a Runge Kutta method based solver are presented and they are used to investigate an alternative MHD solutions. Some numerical analysis are given.
Correlation and Spectral Properties of Vehicle-to-Vehicle Channels in the Presence of Moving Scatterers
2013
This paper derives a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) channel model assuming a typical propagation scenario in which the local scatterers move with random velocities in random directions. The complex channel gain of the proposed V2V channel model is provided. Subsequently, for different scatterer velocity distributions, the corresponding autocorrelation function (ACF), power spectral density (PSD), and the Doppler spread of the channel are derived, shown, and confirmed by the available measurement data. It is shown that the Gaussian mixture (GM) and the exponential distribution can accurately describe the velocity distribution of relatively fast and slow moving scatterers, respectively. Since the p…
El espacio expositivo como lugar de encuentro. Los procesos de mediación en Bombas Gens Centre d’Art
2019
El panorama general sobre el consumo de arte en nuestro país ha propiciado una profunda revisión crítica sobre el estatus del museo en la sociedad española. Dentro de la función educativa ampliamente extendida y asociada a estas instituciones, ha cobrado especial relevancia en los últimos tiempos el concepto de mediación. En el presente artículo, concretamos algunas de las ideas consensuadas sobre las estrategias de diálogo en los museos de arte a la par que exponemos la puesta en práctica de estas teorías en un ejemplo pionero en la ciudad de Valencia.
Exact Voronoi diagram of smooth convex pseudo-circles: General predicates, and implementation for ellipses
2013
International audience; We examine the problem of computing exactly the Voronoi diagram (via the dual Delaunay graph) of a set of, possibly intersecting, smooth convex \pc in the Euclidean plane, given in parametric form. Pseudo-circles are (convex) sites, every pair of which has at most two intersecting points. The Voronoi diagram is constructed incrementally. Our first contribution is to propose robust and efficient algorithms, under the exact computation paradigm, for all required predicates, thus generalizing earlier algorithms for non-intersecting ellipses. Second, we focus on \kcn, which is the hardest predicate, and express it by a simple sparse $5\times 5$ polynomial system, which a…
Power dispatching techniques as a finite state machine for a standalone photovoltaic system with a hybrid energy storage
2020
Standalone photovoltaic system (SPVS) is usually embedded with an energy storage unit to overcome the intermittency of photovoltaic (PV) generation as well as to address load variations in off-grid operation. In SPVS energy systems, batteries can serve as the long term energy storage and contributing to the large portion of the energy demand but to overcome the load intermittency, it necessitates a fast response energy storage embedded with the battery as a hybrid energy storage (HES) for dynamic loads (e.g., Electric Vehicle loads, emergency power management). In this work, Lead-Acid (LA) battery and supper capacitor (SC) array are used as the HES. HES helps not only in increasing more uti…
High Accuracy Modelling of Hybrid Power Supplies
2011
This chapter proposes a modelling approach based on the PSIM/Simulink co-simulation toolbox for hybrid power supplies, featuring high accuracy. Hybrid source performances are fully tested during behavioural simulations. The importance of high-accuracy modelling is investigated and modelling guidelines for both power sources and load are given for further applications. The Simulink model is analyzed and the efficiency of the proposed approach is verified by the comparison between simulation and experimental results. In the last few years, hybrid power supplies are investigated for a wide variety of application areas: two primary sources are coupled to take advantages of both, overcoming thei…
A Review of Nanogrid Technologies for Forming Reliable Residential Grid
2020
Nanogrid is a scale down version of Microgrid. Nanogrid (NG) forms the residential grid with the sources like solar PV, diesel generator, fuel cell and battery based energy storage as a backup for supporting autonomous operation of NG. This paper is focused on portraying the importance of NG for rural electrification of India. The source-load coordination in the NG will ensure the optimal power flow in the grid. This paper has reviewed two most important control techniques i.e. centralized and decentralized for ensuring source-load coordination in the NG. Interfacing converters are the important constituents of NG to dispatch the power from intermittent renewable energy sources to load. Dep…
