Parameters estimation methodology for the nonlinear rolling motion of finned cylindrical body (2018)
Journal Article
Abadir, M., Yusuf, S., Pontillo, A., & Lone, M. (2019). Parameters estimation methodology for the nonlinear rolling motion of finned cylindrical body. Aerospace Science and Technology, 84, 782-798

Identification of nonlinear roll dynamics of finned cylindrical bodies is a critical step when assessing free motion stability and trajectories of aerially dispensed munitions or decoys. In this paper the authors present a parameter estimation proces... Read More about Parameters estimation methodology for the nonlinear rolling motion of finned cylindrical body.

Reducing cost and size in photovoltaic systems using three-level boost converter based on fuzzy logic controller (2018)
Journal Article
Samadi, M., & Rakhtala, S. M. (2019). Reducing cost and size in photovoltaic systems using three-level boost converter based on fuzzy logic controller. Iranian Journal of Science and Technology Transactions of Electrical Engineering, 43, 313-323. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40998-018-0145-6

Photovoltaic (PV) systems are dependent on two main factors of temperature and solar radiation, changing the PV system into a nonlinear system. Therefore, it is necessary to propose an intelligent control system for power control of PV systems to tac...
