In this paper, a universal current-mode second-order active-C filter for simultaneously realizing low-pass, band-pass and high-pass responses is proposed. The presented filter employs only three plus-type second-generation current-controlled conveyors (CCCII+s). This filter needs no critical active and passive component matching conditions and no additional active and passive elements for realizing high output impedance low-pass, band-pass and high-pass characteristics. The angular resonance frequency (ω0) and quality factor (Q) of the proposed resistorless filter can be tuned electronically. To verify the theoretical analysis and to exhibit the performance of the proposed filter, it is simulated with SPICE program.

A simulation model and the results of experimental tests of a vibration generator in applications for the hot-dip galvanizing process are presented. The parameters of the work of the asynchronous motor forcing the system vibrations were determined, as well as the degree of unbalance enabling the vibrations of galvanized elements weighing up to 500 kg to be forced. Simulation and experimental tests of the designed and then constructed vibration generator were carried out at different intensities of the unbalanced rotating mass of the motor. Based on the obtained test results, the generator operating conditions were determined at which the highest values of the amplitude of vibrations transmitted through the suspension system to the galvanized elements were obtained.

Abstract The influence of large-scale forcing on the high-resolution simulation of Tropical Storm Ivan (2004) in the southern Appalachians was investigated using the Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF). Two forcing datasets were employed: the North American Regional Reanalysis (NARR; 32 km × 32 km) and the NCEP Final Operational Global Analysis (NCEP FNL; 1° × 1°). Simulated fields were evaluated against rain gauge, radar, and satellite data; sounding observations; and the best track from the National Hurricane Center (NHC). Overall, the NCEP FNL forced simulation (WRF_FNL) captures storm structure and evolution more accurately than the NARR forced simulation (WRF_NARR), benefiting from the hurricane initialization scheme in the NCEP FNL. Further, the performance of WRF_NARR is also negatively affected by a previously documented low-level warm bias in NARR. These factors lead to excessive precipitation in the Piedmont region, delayed rainfall in Alabama, as well as spatially displaced and unrealistically extreme rainbands during its passage over the southern Appalachians. Spatial filtering of the simulated precipitation fields confirms that the storm characteristics inherited from the forcing are critical to capture the storm’s impact at local places. Compared with the NHC observations, the storm is weaker in both NARR and NCEP FNL (up to Δp ~ 5 hPa), yet it is persistently deeper in all WRF simulations forced by either dataset. The surface wind fields are largely overestimated. This is attributed to the underestimation of surface roughness length over land, leading to underestimation of surface drag, reducing low-level convergence, and weakening the dissipation of the simulated cyclone.

A current-mode universal biquadratic filter with three input terminals and one output terminal is presented. The architecture uses two current conveyors (CCs), two grounded capacitors and two grounded resistors; and can realize all standard second-order filter functions — highpass, bandpass, lowpass, notch and allpass. Moreover, the circuit still offers the following advantage features: very low active and passive sensitivities, using of grounded capacitors and resistors which is ideal for integrated circuit implementation, without requirements for critical component matching conditions and very high output impedance. The workability of the proposed circuit has been verified via HSPICE simulations using TSMC 0.18 μm, level 49 MOSFET technology.

A new voltage-mode biquad with four inputs and four outputs using only two differential difference current conveyors (DDCCs), two grounded capacitors, and two resistors is proposed. The proposed circuit can act as a multifunction voltage-mode filter with one or three inputs and four outputs and can perform simultaneous realization of voltage-mode notch, highpass, bandpass, and lowpass filter signals from the four output terminals, respectively, without any component choice conditions. On the other hand, it also can act as a universal voltage-mode filter with four inputs and a single output and can realize five generic voltage-mode filter signals from the same configuration without any component-matching conditions. Finally, to verify our architecture, we have designed this analog filter chip with TSMC 0.35 μm 2P4M CMOS technology. This chip operates to 1.125 MHz and consumes 30.95 mW. The chip area of the analog filter is about 0.822 mm2.

Abstract Aero engines that fit the future have now increasingly attracted the attention of aerospace industry and academia. With this trend, many research projects have been carried out to explore future aero engine technologies. This paper focuses on engine design field, and aims to satisfy the future flight missions that may be unpredictably varying. However, the intrinsic strong coupling of engine component matching mechanism blocks acceleration of engine design. Under this condition, this paper comes up with the concept of smart engine architecture that via a series of engine decoupling strategies, the components can be decoupled to an extent that by properly selecting and assembling them, an engine that satisfies certain flight mission can be designed, this is named mission-oriented pluggable design mode in this paper. Following this idea, a multi-purpose engine design scheme is presented to demonstrate the potential of this engine design mode, and further value of smart engine architecture is discussed.

This paper outlines the development of the Turbocharger Component Matching System (TuCMS) software package that can be used to inexpensively analyze turbocharger performance, and match turbocharger components to integrate and optimize turbocharger-engine performance. The software system is being developed with the intent to reduce the time taken to experimentally match a turbocharger with an engine, a task that is key to engine emission reductions. TuCMS uses one-dimensional thermo-fluid equations to analyze both the compressor and turbine side of a turbocharger. The program calculates the velocities, pressures, temperatures, pressure drops, and efficiencies for a specified set of turbocharger geometry and atmospheric conditions. Both the compressor and turbine side include established loss models found in the open literature. Work and rotational speed are the parameters used in the turbine and compressor analysis algorithms to integrate the turbocharger system. TuCMS utilizes a component-based architecture to simplify model enhancements. TuCMS can be used as a cost effective engineering tool for preliminary turbocharger testing during engine upgrades and modifications.
