A Brief Review on Induction heating
Abstract: Induction heating is the method of heating an electrically conducting material (usually a metal) by electromagnetic induction, through eddy currents generating heat in the object. An induction heater is an electromagnet and an electronic oscillator that passes through the electromagnet through a high-frequency alternating current (AC). The rapidly alternating magnetic field penetrates the artifact, producing the conductor's electrical currents called eddy currents. The eddy currents flow through Joule heating through …

Robot Kinematics and Neural Networks: A Summary
Abstract: The robot control problem can be divided into two main areas: kinematics control (coordinating the kinematics chain links to generate the robot’s desired motion) and dynamics control (driving the mechanism's actuator to obey the programmed positions and speeds). Further, the kinematics analysis is performed in two ways in robotics, with forward kinematics (FK) and inverse kinematics (IK). FK is defined as the mapping from joint space to Cartesian space (also …

Economic Load Dispatch: A Review
Abstract: In this paper, the problems related to economic load dispatch (ELD) have been discussed. The ELD problem can be conceived as an optimization problem of minimizing the total fuel cost of all generating units while satisfying the demand and losses. The ELD problems have non-smooth objective function with equality and inequality constraints. The economic dispatch problem means the real and reactive power of the generator varies within the certain limits …
