Abstract
In recent years, active filters have been considered and developed for elimation of harmonics in power networks. Comparing with passive, they are smaller and have better compensating characteristics and resistance to line distortions. In this paper, a novel idea based on adaptive filter theory in presented to develop an active filter to eliminate the distortions of an arbitrary signal. Using this idea, new methods of active power filters, are introduced to remove harmonic distortions in single phase power networks. Stability of these methods are analyzed and the simulation results are shown. Design and implementation of this adaptive active filter are done and the performance and advantages of this technique are affirmed by the practical results. Exact estimation of amplitude, frequency and phase of input signal first harmonic is the most important advantage of this adaptive technique. Furthermore, this method is for canceling the harmonic of any arbitrary signal and can easily be modified for other systems, and three phase networks.
Due to its adaptive nature, this technique can adopt itself with variation in environment and system parameters and be adjusted for optimal behaviour.

Abstract
In this paper, based on feedback linearization control method and using a special PI (propotational integrator) regulator (IP) in combination with a feed-forward controller, a three-phase induction servo-drive is speed controlled. First, an observer is employed to estimate the rotor d and q axis flux components. Then, two input-output state variables are introduced to control the dynamics of torque and the magnitude of the rotor flux independently. In addition, based on the model refrence adaptive system (MRAS) and the recursive least square (RLC) error techniques, the rotor time constant and the mechnical parameters (J, R) are simultaneously estimated. Finally, the efficiency of the proposed method is confirmed against results from computer simulation.

Abstract
The objective of this study is to design a robust direct model reference adaptive controller (DMRAC) for a nonlinear cardiovascular model over a range of plant parameters representing a variety of physical conditions. The direct adaptive controllers used in thisd study require the plant to be almost strictly positive real (ASPR) that is, for a plant to be controlled there must exist a feedback gain such that the resulting closed loop system is strictly positive real. We designed a new compensator so that the system composed of the cardiovascular plant and the compensator satisfy the ASPR condition.
Numerous studies in the past have considered a small range of gain variations of the cardiovascular system. In most cases, the controller was designed based on variations in either time delay or plant gains. Many of these workers treated the cardiovascular system as a single-input single output (SISo) plant in which the control output was Mean Arterial Pressure (MAO). We treated the cardiovascular system as a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) plant in which both the MAP and Cardiac Output (CO) are simultaneously controlled.
In this study, a new linear model is presented that provides a better approximation thanthe one the original linear model does. By doing so and utilizing the DMRAC algorithm, we could satisfy the stability conditions for the nonlinear model while satisfactory responses obtained under every possible condition for the cardiovascular nonlinear model.

Abstract
Among the adaptive-grid methods, redistribution and embedding techniques have been the focus of more attention by researchers. Simultaneous or combined adaptive techniques have also been used. This paper describes a combination of adaptive-grid embedding and redistribution methods on semi-structured grids for two-dimensional invisid flows. Since the grid is semi-structured, it is possible to use different algorithms for combining adaptive-grid embedding and redistribution methods. To
evaluate the accuracy and efficiency of the method, this combination is used to solve two model problems, transonic and supersonic inviscid flows in channels with circular arc bump. The results show that combination of adaptive-grid embedding and redistribution methods on semi-structured grids remarkably increases the accuracy at the cost of a slight increase in computational time in comparison with the embedding method alone.
