Fault tolerance is one of the most interesting features in stand-alone electric propulsion systems. Multiphase induction motor drives are presented like a better alternative to their three-phase counterparts because capability withstand faulty situations, ensuring postfault operation drive. Finite-control set model-based predictive control (FCS-MPC) has been introduced last decade an conventional controllers for electrical torque and current regulation multiphase drives. However, FCS-MPC...

Abstract The application of scientific tools to analyse the use Internet-based e-learning in academic settings is general an ignored area. E-learning are actually emergent topic as a result new ideas introduced by European Higher Education Area. Lifelong learning, or promotion student initiative, paradigm learner-centred education. In this context, can represent effective way supporting trend Assuming premise that successful these web-based depends primarily on user's behaviour, objective...

Multiphase electric drives have been recently proposed for applications where the highest overall system reliability and a reduction in total power per phase are required. Strategies derived from conventional field-oriented control traditionally used high-performance speed-control of multiphase drives. The well-known direct torque (DTC) technique has also applied case, but achieved performance with hysteresis-control-based approach is far that obtainable three-phase drive, although structure...

Predictive control techniques have recently been applied with success to conventional and multiphase electrical drives. The additional degrees of freedom in drives make the real-time implementation optimal solutions difficult due increased number iterations. This paper proposes a predictive technique that reduces available voltage source inverter switching states according predefined constraints. introduced method, called as restrained search control, favors on-line improves current tracking...

The interest in predictive control approach and multiphase drives has been steadily growing during the last decade. Predictive techniques have recently introduced as a viable alternative to conventional PI controllers with carrier-based or space vector PWM current regulation of power converters drives. developed schemes demonstrated good performance at expense high computational cost, an unknown switching frequency, appearance large undesirable stator harmonic components. In this paper,...

The interest in multiphase drives has re-emerged the last decade, being asymmetrical dual three-phase induction motor drive one of most popular options. Predictive control techniques, already implemented drives, have been recently adapted to case. Schemes proposed so far demonstrated high performance at expenses a higher degree computational cost and ill-defined switching frequency. In this study, predictive space vector PWM (SVPWM) current technique with fixed frequency is for AC drives....

This paper proposes a new background subtraction algorithm based on the sigma-delta filter, which is intended to be used in urban traffic scenes. The original very interesting alternative due its high computational efficiency. However, model quickly degrades complex scenes because it easily "contaminated" by slow-moving or temporarily stopped vehicles. Then, subsequent foreground validation steps are needed refine detection mask. Instead of requiring any processing resorting algorithms with...
