Matrix Analysis of Electrical Machines

By: A. K. Mukhopadhyay

Electrical Machines May Be Analysed Utilising One Of The Three Methods Viz. Classical Theory, Unified Theory And The Generalised Theory Of Electrical Machines. Generalised Theory May Also Be Regarded As The Matrix Theory Of Electrical Machines Which Requires Only A Knowledge Of The Circuit Equation, Elementary Matrix Algebra And The Principle That The Power Of The System Must Remain Invariant Irrespective Of The Terms In Which It Is Expressed.This Technique Is The Best Approach To Obtain Electrical Machine Performance For Both The Non-Specialist And The Specialist And That The Latter Will Find In It, A Powerful Tool When He Is Faced With More Complicated Performance Problems. An Attempt Has Been Made In This Volume To Study Most Of The Electrical Machines Normally Covered In Undergraduate And Postgraduate Courses Utilising Matrix Analysis. The Book Also Includes Some More Advanced Problems To Indicate The Power And Limitation Of The Method.After An Introduction To The Theory, The Same Methodology Has Been Applied To Static Circuits As Illustrations. Then The Generalised Machines Of First And Second Kinds Have Been Introduced And Analysed Followed By The Different Case Studies. Both Steady State And Transient Analysis Of Conventional Machines Have Been Presented In Both Static And Rotating Reference Frames. The Beauty Of The Matrix Theory Has Been Projected While Developing The Equivalent Circuits Of Different Machines Using Revolving Field Theory Where Physical Concepts Have Been Derived From The Mathematical Models Developed Through Matrix Analysis.The Latest Development Of The Theory Viz. The Development Of State Model Of Different Electrical Machines Has Been Explained Clearly In The Text. These Models May Readily Be Utilised For Stability Analysis Using Computers.The Book Has Been Presented In Such A Way That, It Will Be A Textbook For Undergraduate And Postgraduate Students And Also A Reference Book For The Research Students In The Relevant Area And Practising Engineers.The Treatment Of The Book May Find Wide Application For The Practising Engineers Who Face Day-To-Day Problems In The Practical Field Since The Theory Is Based On Elementary Knowledge Of Matrix Algebra And Circuit Theory Rather Than Complicated Physical Laws And Hypothesis.

Tectonics of the Indian Subcontinent

By: A.K. Jain,D.M. Banerjee,Vivek S. Kale

This books documents the salient characters of the tectonic evolution of the Indian subcontinent. It showcases the well investigated subcontinent of Gondwana. The book is linked to an updated geological and tectonic map of this region on 1:12,000,000 in scale. The Indian subcontinent displays almost uninterrupted and unique the geological history since about Eo-Archean (~3800 Ma) to recent, with the development of many Proterozoic deformed and metamorphosed fold belts around Archean nuclei, and enormously thick undeformed platform deposits. After their stabilization during late Proterozoic, the subcontinent underwent Paleozoic rifting and deposition of coal-bearing thick sequences, followed by enormously-thick outpouring of Deccan volcanics as a consequence of huge mantle plume. The youngest event in its evolution is the Cenozoic Himalayan Orogenic Mountains, spanning the area between Nanga Parbat and Namcha Barwah; a part of which extends both in Pakistan and Myanmar.

MEASURE THEORY AND PROBABILITY

By: A. K. BASU

This compact and well-received book, now in its second edition, is a skilful combination of measure theory and probability. For, in contrast to many books where probability theory is usually developed after a thorough exposure to the theory and techniques of measure and integration, this text develops the Lebesgue theory of measure and integration, using probability theory as the motivating force. What distinguishes the text is the illustration of all theorems by examples and applications. A section on Stieltjes integration assists the student in understanding the later text better. For easy understanding and presentation, this edition has split some long chapters into smaller ones. For example, old Chapter 3 has been split into Chapters 3 and 9, and old Chapter 11 has been split into Chapters 11, 12 and 13. The book is intended for the first-year postgraduate students for their courses in Statistics and Mathematics (pure and applied), computer science, and electrical and industrial engineering. KEY FEATURES : Measure theory and probability are well integrated. Exercises are given at the end of each chapter, with solutions provided separately. A section is devoted to large sample theory of statistics, and another to large deviation theory (in the Appendix).

Least Squares Support Vector Machines

By: Johan A K Suykens,Tony Van Gestel,Joseph De Brabanter,Bart De Moor,Joos P L Vandewalle

This book focuses on Least Squares Support Vector Machines (LS-SVMs) which are reformulations to standard SVMs. LS-SVMs are closely related to regularization networks and Gaussian processes but additionally emphasize and exploit primal-dual interpretations from optimization theory. The authors explain the natural links between LS-SVM classifiers and kernel Fisher discriminant analysis. Bayesian inference of LS-SVM models is discussed, together with methods for imposing sparseness and employing robust statistics.The framework is further extended towards unsupervised learning by considering PCA analysis and its kernel version as a one-class modelling problem. This leads to new primal-dual support vector machine formulations for kernel PCA and kernel CCA analysis. Furthermore, LS-SVM formulations are given for recurrent networks and control. In general, support vector machines may pose heavy computational challenges for large data sets. For this purpose, a method of fixed size LS-SVM is proposed where the estimation is done in the primal space in relation to a Nyström sampling with active selection of support vectors. The methods are illustrated with several examples.

Aluminum-Lithium Alloys

Chapter 5. Texture and Its Effects on Properties in Aluminum–Lithium Alloys

By: K.V. Jata,A.K. Singh

This chapter describes the development of crystallographic texture and its effects on mechanical properties in aluminum-lithium alloys. Crystallographic texture evolves during the forming of wrought products from cast ingots of Al-Li alloys and consequently affects the mechanical properties. Practical approaches to control the texture have been developed and have been successfully used in the products obtained from industrial-scale ingots. This texture tailoring has significantly reduced the yield strength anisotropy. In addition, theoretical approaches have been used to model the yield strength anisotropy of aluminum alloys in the presence of complex precipitates.

Theory of Preliminary Test and Stein-Type Estimation with Applications

By: A. K. Md. Ehsanes Saleh

Theory of Preliminary Test and Stein-Type Estimation with Applications provides a com-prehensive account of the theory and methods of estimation in a variety of standard models used in applied statistical inference. It is an in-depth introduction to the estimation theory for graduate students, practitioners, and researchers in various fields, such as statistics, engineering, social sciences, and medical sciences. Coverage of the material is designed as a first step in improving the estimates before applying full Bayesian methodology, while problems at the end of each chapter enlarge the scope of the applications. This book contains clear and detailed coverage of basic terminology related to various topics, including: * Simple linear model; ANOVA; parallelism model; multiple regression model with non-stochastic and stochastic constraints; regression with autocorrelated errors; ridge regression; and multivariate and discrete data models * Normal, non-normal, and nonparametric theory of estimation * Bayes and empirical Bayes methods * R-estimation and U-statistics * Confidence set estimation

Indian Buddhism

By: A. K. Warder

This book describes the Buddhism of India on the basis of the comparison of all the available original sources in various languages. It falls into three approximately equal parts. The first is a reconstruction of the original Buddhism presupposed by the traditions of the different schools known to us. It uses primarily the established methods of textual criticism, drawing out of the oldest extant texts of the different schools their common kernel. This kernel of doctrine is presumably common Buddhism of the period before the great schisms of the fourth and third centuries BC. It may be substantially the Buddhism of the Buddha himself, though this cannot be proved: at any rate, it is a Buddhism presupposed by the schools as existing about a hundred years after the Parinirvana of the Buddha, and there is no evidence to suggest that it was formulated by anyone other than the Buddha and his immediate followers. The second part traces the development of the 'Eighteen Schools' of early Buddhism, showing how they elaborated their doctrines out of the common kernel. Here we can see to what extent the Sthaviravada, or 'Theravada' of the Pali tradition, among others, added to or modified the original doctrine. The third part describes the Mahayana movement and the Mantrayana, the way of the bodhisattva and the way of ritual. The relationship of the Mahayana to the early schools is traced in detail, with its probable affiliation to one of them, the Purva Saila, as suggested by the consensus of the evidence. Particular attention is paid in this book to the social teaching of Buddhism, the part which relates to the 'world' rather than to nirvana and which has been generally neglected in modern writings of Buddhism.

Aluminum-Lithium Alloys

Chapter 14. Corrosion and Stress Corrosion of Aluminum–Lithium Alloys

By: N.J.H. Holroyd,G.M. Scamans,R.C. Newman,A.K. Vasudevan

Industrial interest in wrought heat-treatable aluminium-lithium (Al–Li) based alloys dates back to around 1919 in Germany. However the exploitation of these alloys has historically been limited by their mechanical property anisotropy and concerns over their localized corrosion resistance and temperature stability. Recently, in the last ten years, alloy and process development has resulted in alloy compositions and thermomechanical treatments that potentially can overcome these issues. To put these developments in perspective we have reviewed the corrosion characteristics of first, second and third generation alloys with an emphasis on localized corrosion (intergranular and exfoliation) and stress corrosion cracking (SCC). Intergranular corrosion susceptibility of Al–Li–Cu and Al–Li–Cu–Mg alloys increases with copper content, and the depth of attack increases with ageing, i.e. UAPA~30 mm) further analysis of corrosion test results is required.
