A 2-D finite point meshless model was used to simulate the heat transfer and solidification of steel in continuous casting molds to illustrate its use in metallurgy. The latent heat of the pure metal was treated using the temperature recovery method and the latent heat of the alloy was treated using...

A higher-order theory for laminated composite beams is used to study the free vibration of laminated composite beams, and the differential quadrature method is employed to obtain the numerical solution of the governing differential equations. Free vibration analysis of beams with rectangular cross-s...

The busbars in high power neutral point clamped three-level inverters are modeled using the Maxwell Q3D Extractor software, which is based on the partial element equivalent circuits method. The equivalent circuits of the busbars and devices model are simulated in the electric simulator PSIM to analy...

The unbalanced impedance of the asymmetric 3-phase wind power permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) compensated by external circuits in series with the 3-phase windings is investigated in this paper. The asymmetric impedance includes the unbalanced resistances, unbalanced self-inductances, a...

Modifying the equivalent rotor resistivity with rotor end factor in 2-dimension (2-D) finite element analysis (FEA) is an effective way to analyze the 3-dimension (3-D) solid rotor problems. For the smooth solid rotor, five different rotor end factors are discussed and compared with each other. It i...
