An electrical power system usually includes machines with their regulators and controls linked through power lines, transformers, capacitor banks, reactors, and loads. In stability analysis, two distinct strategies are possible for solving the differential equations and network equations...

In this paper, we propose a new load distribution strategy called ‘send-and-receive’ for scheduling divisible loads, in a linear network of processors with communication delay. This strategy is designed to optimally utilize the network resources and thereby minimizes the processing time of...

In the last decade a significant number of papers have been published on the efficient formulation of the inverse and forward dynamic equations of motion for robotic manipulators and in general for multibody systems, in view of real-time control or real-time simulation of the system.

An inverse hydrologic optics problem is solved using a recent intrinsic regularization scheme that is coupled to a standard Ant Colony System (ACS). The regularization scheme pre-selects candidate solutions based on their smoothness, quantified by a Tikhonov norm. The Chlorophyll profile is...

Being one of the largest groundwater basins in Jordan, the Azraq basin is considered to be an important domestic and agricultural water source. Lately, there have been growing concerns about the continuous depletion and deterioration in groundwater quality in the basin due to intensive pumping...

This paper presents an on-line obstacle avoidance scheme for robot arms. This method is directly formulated in the Cartesian space and uses complete information about the workspace. The strategy is to detect the collision and to plan the motion of each link successively, starting from the base...
