Published: December 2016

This paper presents the advantage of using optimal PI parameter tuning strategy of constant switching method in the three phase Direct torque control (DTC) scheme. The DTC system is known to offer fast decoupled control of torque and flux via a simple control structure. Nevertheless, DTC system has two major drawbacks, which are the variable inverter switching frequency and high torque output ripple. The major factorthat contributes to these problems the usage of hysteresis based comparators to control the output torque. The implementation of PI based constant switching method in DTC able to solve these problems while retaining the simple control structure of conventional DTC. The combination usage of 3-level CHMI in this system can further minimize the output torque ripple by providing greater number of vectors. This paper presents detail explanation and calculationof optimal PI parameter tuning strategyconsecutively to enhance the performance of 3-level DTC system. In order to validate the feasibility, the proposed method compared with convention DTC system via simulation and experiment results.

Published: December 2016

Multiphase electric drives have been developed due to numerous advantages offered by those machines when it compared with the conventional three-phase machines. Multiphase motor drives are considered for applications, where the reduction of power per phase for both motor and inverter and high reliability are required. High performance control techniques are developed for multi-phase drives. The performances of the high performance controller and flux observers may be degraded during the operation. Since the parameters of Induction Motor (IM) varies continuously due to temperature variation and heating. Thus it is significantly important that the value of rotor resistance is continuously observed online and adapted by the control algorithm in order to avoid detuning effects. The efficiency and performance of an induction motor drive system can be improved by online observation of the critical parameters, such as the rotor resistance and stator resistance. Among the parameters of IM, rotor resistance is a decisive one for flux estimation, and also the stator resistance becomes critical in the low-speed operation condition. This paper presents a new online estimation method for the rotor resistance of the IM for sliding mode observer. This method generally based on theories of variable structure and is useful in order to adjust online unknown parameters (load torque and rotor resistance). The presented non-linear compensator afford a voltage inputs on the articulation of stator current and rotor speed measurements, and engender an estimates for the unknown parameters simultaneously, the non-measurable state variables (rotor flux and derivatives of the stator current and voltage) that converge to the corresponding true values. Under the persistent excitation condition, the proposed method estimates the actual value of rotor resistance, which guarantees the exact estimation of the rotor flux. Non-linear Backstepping control and adaptive sliding mode observer of a five-phase induction motor drive is presented. The accuracy and validity of the method is verified by MATLAB simulation model.

Published: December 2016

Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) of a photo voltaic system with different temperature and insolation conditions used for Micro grids can be explained in this paper. The different steps of the design of this controller are presented together with its simulation and the feasibility of control methods to be adopted for the operation of a micro grid when it becomes isolated. Normally, the micro grid operates in interconnected mode with the medium voltage network; however, scheduled or forced isolation can take place. In such conditions, the micro grid must have the ability to operate stably and autonomously. An evaluation of the need of storage devices and load to take off strategies is included in this paper. Solar photovoltaic (PV) energy has witnessed double-digit growth in the past decade. The penetration of PV systems as distributed generators in low-voltage grids has also seen significant attention. In addition, the need for higher overall grid efficiency and reliability has boosted the interest in the microgrid concept. High-efficiency PV-based microgrids require maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controllers to maximize the harvested energy due to the nonlinearity in PV module characteristics. This paper proposes an approach of coordinated and integrated control of solar PV generators with the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control and battery storage control to provide voltage and frequency (V-f) support to an islanded microgrid. The simulation studies are carried out with the IEEE 13-bus feeder test system in grid connected and islanded microgrid modes. The MPPT of a Photovoltaic System for Micro Grid operation is successfully designed and simulated by using MATLAB/Simulink Software in this paper.
Multi-objective Optimization Scheme for PID-Controlled DC Motor
Authors: Dewantoro Gunawan
Published: December 2016

DC Motor is the most basic electro-mechanical equipment and well-known for its merit and simplicity. The performance of DC motor is assessed based on several qualities that are most-likely contradictory each other, i.e. settling time and overshoot percentage. Most of controllers optimization problems are multi-objective in nature since they normally have several conflicting objectives that must be met simultaneously. In this study, the grey relational analysis (GRA) was combined with Taguchi method to search the optimum PID parameter for multi-objective problem. First, a L9 (33) orthogonal array was used to plan out the processing parameters that would affect the DC motor’s speed. Then GRA was applied to overcome the drawback of single quality characteristics in the Taguchi method, and then the optimized PID parameter combination was obtained for multiple quality characteristics from the response table and the response graph from GRA. Signal-to-noise ratio (S/N ratio) calculation and analysis of variance (ANOVA) would be performed to find out the significant factors. Lastly, the reliability and reproducibility of the experiment was verified by confirming a confidence interval (CI) of 95%.

Authors: Dhara Saumen , Shrivastav Alok Kumar , Sadhu Pradip Kumar , Ganguly Ankur
Published: December 2016

Short circuit current limitation in distribution system utilities can be an operational approach to improve power quality, since the estimated voltage sag amplitude during faults may be intensely reduced. The application of superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) is projected here to limit the fault current that occurs in power system. SFCL utilizes superconductors to instantaneously decrease the unanticipated electrical surges that happen on utility distribution and power transmission networks. SFCL considerably decrease the economic burden on the utilities by reducing the wear on circuit breakers and protecting other expensive equipment. The designed SFCL model is used for determining an impedance level of SFCL according to the fault current limitation necessities of different types of the smart grid system. The representation of this paper about to see the optimum resistive value of SFCL for enhancing the transient stability of a power system. The assessment of optimal resistive value of the SFCL connected in series in a transmission line with a conductor throughout a short circuit fault is consistently determined by applying the equal-area criterion supported by power-angle curves. A Simulink based primary model is developed and additionally the simulation results for the projected model are achieved by using MATLAB.

Published: December 2016

This paper attempts to design lag and lag-lead compensators for improving the performance of a Single Inductor Quad Output (SIQO) dc-dc buck converter in terms of time domain and frequency domain specifications. It develops the state space averaged model to find the duty ratio of the desired output voltages at steady state. The exercise arrives at the transfer function model from the state space averaged model through the use of its lumped small signal equivalent circuit which allows analyzing the performance of the system in frequency and time domains. The responses are derived in the MATLAB/Simulink® using discrete components incorporating compensators of the converter. The hardware results obtained using Data Acquisition Module DT9834® interfaced to MATLAB/Simulink® and prototype model establish the performance of the compensator based converter and further emphasize its ability to minimize the ripples over a range of operating loads.

Published: December 2016

In recent decades, several research works have been focused on the efficient Power Factor Correction (PFC) converter design in to meet the power supply efficiency. Conventional PFC cuk converter widely uses the full bridge rectifier which had resulted in overall increase of converter losses and inefficiency. This paper is intended to develop a novel PFC Bridgeless cuk converter for LED lamp applications. In this work, the limitations of the conventional PFC Cuk converter are resolved. The major contributions of the proposed work include the minimization in the number of conduction devices and minimization of the power utility devices which in turn resulted in minimal losses and better efficiency. Moreover, the proposed converter works in DCM which requires only one voltage sensor which results in reduced cost. The proposed Modified BL Cuk converter (MBL-CUK) for LED lamp is simulated in MATLAB and the corresponding results show the better power quality indices such as power factor and Total Harmonic Distortion.

Authors: Wijaya Fransisco Danang , Prabowo Hartanto
Published: December 2016

Single-phase induction generator is very suitable to be used in the typical loads which only need a single-phase power supply with small power capacity requirement, such as diesel engine, picohydro or small wind plant. It has some advantages such as rugged, effective cost, maintenance free and require no external excitation. However, it has inductive characteristic which makes poor voltage regulation. This paper proposed a shunt reactive compensator called SVC-MERS which can provide a variable reactive power to maintain the generator voltage despite of load variations. The experiment was conducted on single-phase two winding induction generator coupled by a three-phase induction motor which serves as the prime mover. SVC-MERS and the load are connected in shunt to the main winding, while the excitation capacitor was connected to the auxiliary winding. The experimental results showed that SVC-MERS can improve voltage regulation and substantially enhanced steady state loading limit.

Authors: Shunmugakani P. , Kirubakaran D.
Published: December 2016

Renewable power systems as distributed generation units often experience big changes in the inverter input voltage due to fluctuations of energy resources. Z-source inverter (ZSI) is known as a single-stage buck/boost inverter. The ZSI achieves voltage buck/boost in single stage, without additional switches. Triggering on state enables energy to be stored in inductors, which is released when at non-shoot-through state, followed by the voltage boost feature. The voltage-fed Z-source inverter/quasi-Z-source inverter (QZSI) has been presented suitable for photovoltaic (PV) applications mainly because of its single-stage buck and boost capability and the improved reliability.

Authors: Derri Mounir , Bouzi Mostafa , Lagrat Ismail , Baba Youssef
Published: December 2016

In this study, a fuzzy sliding mode control (FSMC) based maximum power point tracking strategy has been applied for photovoltaic (PV) system. The key idea of the proposed technique is to combine the performances of the fuzzy logic and the sliding mode control in order to improve the generated power for a given set of climatic conditions. Different from traditional sliding mode control, the developed FSMC integrates two parts. The first part uses a fuzzy logic controller with two inputs and 25 rules as an equivalent controller while the second part is designed for an online adjusting of the switching controller’s gain using a fuzzy tuner with one input and one output. Simulation results showed the effectiveness of the proposed approach achieving maximum power point. The fuzzy sliding mode (FSM) controller takes less time to track the maximum power point, reduced the oscillation around the operating point and also removed the chattering phenomena that could lead to decrease the efficiency of the photovoltaic system.

O cavalo de batalha moderno: [r]existências, debates e possibilidades em torno do caso do hotel internacional Reis Magos
Authors: Dantas George Alexandre Ferreira , Nascimento José Clewton Do , Vieira-de-Araújo Natália Miranda
Published: January 2017

Este artigo é um exercício de memória e resistência, com inegável sentido de relato quase jornalístico. Pela memória, presta-se a registrar o passo a passo das discussões e querelas que se formaram em torno dos intentos de demolição do Hotel Internacional Reis Magos (HIRM) a partir dos últimos meses de 2013. Pela resistência, serve como mapeamento de erros e acertos, dos limites e possibilidades do debate sobre as questões arquitetônicas e urbanísticas e, em especial, das patrimoniais quando assomam à esfera pública. Como uma das questões de fundo, ilumina-se com nitidez as dificuldades de compreensão do acervo da arquitetura modernista como patrimônio, cuja possibilidade de restauro, preservação e reuso muitas vezes nem se coloca. E, cabe enfatizar, essa dificuldade vem à tona mesmo entre os colegas arquitetos e urbanistas, engenheiros ou do campo das artes em geral. Parece que a questão do patrimônio, a despeito dos inúmeros avanços nas experiências projetuais e do acúmulo de discussões e formulações teóricas e conceituais, não consegue escapar, ao menos na esfera pública, da ideia do tombamento. É possível construir um novo campo discursivo em prol de uma noção de tombamento que possibilite albergar intervenções contemporâneas?

Analisa-se a relação entre processos judiciais e romances autoficcionais: como a justiça se coloca como tema e como parte integrante da produção e recepção dessas obras. Decisões judiciais vão de encontro ao postulado ensejado por autores como Christine Angot e Ricardo Lísias: o direito inalienável da literatura em pilhar a realidade sem mascarar tal processo. Lísias vai mesmo além: não só faz da Justiça tema como como parte do efeito desta sobre a obra para transformá-lo em romance, tornando indissociável a vida que vira ficção da ficção que age na vida.

Este artigo dispõe-se a explorar e interpretar narrativas pessoais de mulheres falantes do judeu-espanhol, criadas na atmosfera cultural e linguística na atualidade israelense. A pesquisa é baseada num enfoque que define a narrativa pessoal como multifacetada e portanto utiliza ferramentas multidisciplinares para examinar o material coletado numa perspectiva linguística, literária, folclórica, antropológica e sociológica. As narrativas, assim como a atividade do grupo que serve de estrutura conceitual devem ser considerados à luz da definição de Benedict Anderson para uma “comunidade imaginária”, como a reconstrução do imaginário do judeu-espanhol, tido como uma identidade imaginária baseada numa cultura que virtualmente não tem função hoje em dia. Do aspecto da etnicidade a principal questão é se e como as narrativas pessoais criadas por mulheres falantes do judeu-espanhol aqui e agora refletem a identidade coletiva e as concepções do grupo étnico sefardita.

Educação Clandestina no Gueto de Varsóvia: Cantinas-Escola Como Espaço de Resistência
Authors: Souza Nanci
Published: January 2017

Esta comunicação apresenta alguns resultados da pesquisa de mestrado a respeito da educação enquanto forma de resistência. O objeto deste estudo é o ensino elementar clandestino, posto em prática pelos educadores logo após o fechamento do gueto de Varsóvia, época em que as crianças e jovens vivenciavam situações extremas de intolerância. A partir de registros de época, procurou-se conhecer as estratégias direcionadas para preservar os judeus como povo,visto que esses estavam condenados ao extermínio pelos nazistas. Constatou-se que a educação, em distintos momentos e espaços clandestinos, serviu para garantir o mínimo de dignidade, fosse física ou cultural, aos judeus excluídos pelos nazistas como “raça inferior”. Como espaço de resistência, tem-se como exemplo as cantinas-escola da Rua Karmelicka n° 29, da Rua Krochmalna n° 36 e da Rua Nowolipki n° 68, nas quais foram implementadas o Programa dos Cursos Clandestinos sob a tutela da instituição de ensino TsYShO. A relevância deste estudo está em analisar a ação daqueles que se encontravam degradados da condiçãohumana, que buscavam, por meio da educação clandestina, fazer frente aos conceitos nazistas, preservando sua dignidade e defendendo sua própria ideologia, vinculada a sua sobrevivência e a sua continuidade como indivíduos e como povo.

Authors: Petel Karla Louise De Ameida
Published: January 2017

O presente artigo objetiva refletir sobre a dinâmica do enlutamento existente na sociedade israelense contemporânea e sobre em quais momentos/eventos históricos reside a sua origem. Esta pesquisa busca também analisar a flagrante manutenção da dor e do trauma como experiência individual e coletiva em Israel, reforçados pelo próprio Estado através de inúmeras datas e rituais memorialísticos, chegando a atingir proporções nacionais. Consolidado como uma verdadeira construção social, o enlutamento, portanto, passa a fazer parte da dura realidade cotidiana do país e ressoa nas mais diversas manifestações artísticas da sociedade, sobretudo a literatura. Por fim, este trabalho dedica-se ainda a uma leitura analítico-interpretativa de duas obras do autor contemporâneo israelense David Grossman – A mulher foge (2011) e Fora do tempo (2012) – as quais contém ecos muito significativos da temática da morte e do luto característicos da sociedade israelense.

A Notação Gregoriana: Gênese e Significado
Authors: Mammì Lorenzo
Published: January 2017

A interação contínua entre composição, notação e interpretação parece ser uma característica própria da música ocidental, a partir da era cristã. Tanto a notação musical antiga quanto a maior parte das notações extra-européias utilizam notações alfabéticas, em analogia com a escrita. Os manuscritos musicais gregorianos a partir do século VIII, e os bizantinos, que remontam mais ou menos ao mesmo período, são os primeiros exemplos de notações baseadas sobre critérios totalmente diferentes, que não encontram paralelos imediatos fora da esfera musical. Énecessario então analisar a natureza desses critérios, e sua funcionalidade em relação aos princípios musicais correntes na época.

A filosofia antiga da música grega desenvolveu-se em conexão com a matemática e acústica desde o pitagorismo, que, por sua vez desenrolou-se num contexto ritualístico, mágico e simbólico. O modelo de harmonia universal da ciência pitagórica fez com que ela se expandisse em muitas direções, da astronomia à medicina. A obra de Platão reelaborou parte do pensamento musical pitagórico e examinou também a influência da música no ethos humano, tema que foi aprofundado por Aristóteles. O surgimento da abordagem aristoxeniana provocou uma reorganização do campo da investigação musical, criando um domínio específico da música.
Razões para o Declínio da Retórica Musical no Século XIX
Authors: Silva William Teixeira da , Ferraz Silvio
Published: January 2017

O trabalho discute os eventos que levaram a retórica, dispositivo essencial para a estruturação da linguagem musical, a não mais ser utilizada e estudada dentro da prática musical. A discussão visa identificar as razões pelas quais tal declínio ocorreu, principalmente através das modificações no pensamento filosófico, que se refletiram na construção da arte musical como um todo. Por fim, serão identificados alguns pontos remanescentes nos quais pode ainda ser visto o espírito da retórica na música posterior.
Teorias Francesas do Século XVII: Números e Paixões - Pensamentos de Platão, Mersenne e Descartes
Authors: Lopes Rodrigo
Published: January 2017

A França do século XVII e da primeira metade do século XVIII é marcada por traços comuns que correspondem não só a ideias artísticas ou técnicas; a música está integrada num todo social e cultural, envolvida com a mentalidade e ideias correntes, não possuindo independência nos diversos domínios onde está inserida. Nesses domínios, a música é também parte integrante de um mundo cósmico e universal como um todo, subjugada ao absolutismo monárquico e ao serviço de Deus. Na hierarquia social, o monarca está em seu ápice, e servi-lo é a maior honra e prestígio que se poderia ter. A compreensão do texto literário é um traço marcante neste período, e a música deve estar a serviço da palavra e da representação das paixões da alma. Essa representação está inserida numa certa teoria das paixões, sua origem é encontrada na concepção platônica da alma e do mundo; como Platão, muitos teóricos do século XVII acreditam que as proporções equilibram as diversas partes de nossa alma, sendo semelhantes às mesmas proporções que fundamentam o sistema musical. Assim, neste trabalho, procura-se observar alguns traços quanto à retórica das paixões e a especulação numérica a partir da análise de aspectos do Timeu de Platão, obra que unifica a doutrina pitagórica dos números e lhe dá um significado cosmológico, pela explicação das proporções matemáticas, onde o microcosmo humano é reflexo das leis do macrocosmo. Além disso, observar aspectos do pensamento de Mersenne que, tributário do pensamento de Platão e Zarlino, possui em sua escritura analogias com uma ordem universal, além de outras analogias místicas e religiosas como argumentos para validar suas ideias musicais como, por exemplo, a adoção da harmonia entre as consonâncias, como é descrito em sua Harmonie Universelle. Por fim, observar aspectos da nova concepção de ciência do pensamento de Descartes que, diferente dos outros, aborda a música por si mesma, como o é demonstrado em seu Compendium Musicae; nele, além de uma rede de analogias e símbolos de acordo com as propriedades do som, são avaliadas a recepção e a percepção do ouvinte perante os fenômenos sonoros. Pretende-se observar como o racionalismo cartesiano suplantou os outros pensamentos e como ele se estabeleceu, fortificando-se como um marco na estética musical.

Abertura
Authors: Lesure François
Published: January 2017

Uma nova revista, ao nascer, suscita sempre a curiosidade: abre uma senda, afirma aspirações e testemunha uma lacuna. Logo abrigará discussões e se tornará um desafio. Houve muitos periódicos musicais no Brasil (o Grove's recenseou 29), mas há profunda carência no que se refere a revistas especialmente consagradas à musicologia. Se eu me sinto muito feliz ao saudar a aparição de uma revista especializada, é pelo fato de que esta disciplina tem necessidade de renovação, de sangue novo, e que o Brasil me parece muito bem colocado para submetê-la a questionamentos.
Textura Instrumental na África Ocidental: A Peça Agbadza
Authors: Lacerda Marcos Branda
Published: January 2017

Este artigo trata preferencialmente de um fenômeno ainda pouco observado na distribuição das partes fixas que constituem o conjunto instrumental Atsiã, da população Ewe do sul de Ghana: ao contrário do que se supõe normalmente na literatura musicológica sobre este gênero da música africana, os instrumentistas não-responsáveis pela parte solista podem introduzir eventualmente alterações estruturais na textura de uma peça determinada. Procuro demonstrar também alguns conceitos básicos da música africana ocidental, e fazer um paralelo entre a forma de organização da textura instrumental na música iorubá eewe. Concluindo o trabalho, apresento uma colaboração à discussão sobre os princípios que regulam a orientação rítmica dos executantes neste tipo de música.

Musical Criticism and Music Education
Authors: Swanwick Keith
Published: January 2017

I am concerned here with the concept of musical analysis and its role in school and college education. My starting point is simply that musical analysis is the most important branch of musical criticism. By criticism I mean any discourse about music involving judgement or appraisal at any level. Critical statements that have analytical force must by definition say something about how a particular piece of music functions. All analysis is musical criticism but not all criticism is analysis. Analysis cannot be simply an expression of preference or a statement about the social or historical context of a piece of music. Critical statements that are simple expressions of preference or statements about context are not particularly helpful to the process of music education. For this reason I shall confine myself to the branch of criticism we call analysis. Analysis is essentially discourse concerned with the internal functioning of a specific musical object. It is about the integrity of a particular work. To be more accurate, analysis is discourse about our perceptions of a musical object. From an educational perspective it is not helpful to conduct musical analysis as though a work existed independently of individual perceptions of it and in classrooms we have to conduct musical analysis in a way that involves students engaging with music in his or her own way.
Jeff Golyscheff e as Dificuldades de sua Recuperação
Authors: Zanini Walter
Published: January 2017

O achado da partitura extraviada do "Trio paro cordas", de 1914, pelo Instituto de Musicologia de Colônia e sua divulgação pela rádio alemã, no início dos anos de 1960, contribuíram decisivamente para a redescoberta do compositor Jeff Golyscheff. Dispõe-se hoje de um registro fundamental de sua produção - embora de teor quase exclusivamente nominal - com um ponto de partida nessa obra escrita para violino, viola e violoncelo, que o fez um dos criadores da música dodecafônica, ao lado de Joseph Mathias Hauer. A esse trabalho inovador, publicado em 1925, em que emprega o princípio da "durata ", recorrendo a elementos seriais e estocásticos, sucederam-se outras peças de vanguarda: as duas óperas escritas em 1915-6: "Cyrano de Bergerac" e "Oper"; músicas de câmara, peças de canto e o poema sinfônico com o título irreverente de "Das eisige Lied, Dauer eine Stunde und 40 Minuten" (contendo uma parte de características prenunciadoras do happening. Num outro momento, ele comporia músicas para os primeiros filmes sonoros alemães e russos. Igualmente, é ele o autor da "Antisinfonia", cujas dissonâncias aturdiram o público em evento do Club Dada de Berlim, em 1919. Entre os seus maiores incentivadores achava-se Ferruccio Busoni. É uma infelicidade que, à exceção do "Trio para cordas ", nenhuma outra de suas partituras subsistisse (ou reaparecesse).
"...sofferte onde serene ..." de Luigi Nono
Authors: Caselli Massimo
Published: January 2017

Luigi Nono morreu em maio de 1990, aos 66 anos de idade. Deixou-nos o legado de uma ampla produção musical, que testemunha o percurso interior do artista em confronto contínuo consigo mesmo e com o mundo exterior, desde os intensos anos de Darmstadt, até os anos recentes, mais rarefeitos. Um diário íntimo, em que podem ser detectadas as infinitésimas e as macroscópicas tensões que atravessam o homem contemporâneo: um caso, sem dúvida, isolado no panorama musical, amiúde anônimo e desengajado, do nosso tempo. "...sofferte onde serene..." representa, com certeza, um momento significativo no percurso compositivo de Nono: se a obra não possui os pressupostos e as dimensões dos grandes trabalhos, sobretudo dos teatrais, é certo que ela marca uma virada no pensamento do músico veneziano. Um sinal evidente desse fato está na acirrada discussão que essa mudança de direção despertou no mundo musical, levando os críticos a assumirem posições às vezes diametralmente opostas.
Domenico Scarlatti e a Cultura Portuguesa
Authors: D'Ávila Humberto
Published: January 2017

O Libro di Tocate per Cembalo do Instituto Português do Patrimônio Cultural - IPPC (FCR 194.1), onde se copiam 60 sonatas, é por si mesmo um exemplar único no espólio do compositor Domenico Scarlatti e até agora desconhecido. Ao se proceder ao cotejo do incipit de cada peça com o das Sonatas reconhecidas do mestre napolitano, de todas as sonatas compiladas, uma havia, a nº 25 da série, que não coincidia com qualquer outra, era desconhecida e podia, pois, considerar-se inédita. O achado era de festejar, pois se verificava no próprio ano de 1985, o dos centenários do nascimento de Bach, Händel e Scarlatti. Ademais da inclusão da sonata inédita, na tonalidade de lá maior, preferida do autor, contém outras informações que acrescentam o seu valor documental.
