This paper used a robust mathematical way (binary coding method) to study shadow effect in photovoltaic arrays. Binary coding method provides a way to define power generation index (PGI) as a factor which shows the performance of arrays at shadow condition. Different configurations of photovoltaic (PV) array show different behavior at shadow condition. Configurations behavior depends on modules interconnections, bypass and blocking diodes, and etc. Configuration which has better working condition should be chosen for PV array. In this paper all conventional configurations are analyzed and compared by the use of PGI value. Over currents which may create in some states of shadow is studied. Moreover, this paper deals with influence of working voltage range of inverter in maximum power point tracking. Finally, configurations are rated.

Two-dimensional unsteady Navier-Stokes solution method with moving overset grids
Tuncer, İsmail Hakkı (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), 1997-03-01)
A simple numerical algorithm to localize intergrid boundary points and to interpolate unsteady solution variables across two-dimensional, structured overset grids is presented. Overset grids are allowed to move in time relative to each other. Intergrid boundary points are localized in a triangular stencil on the donor grid by a directional search algorithm. The final parameters of the search algorithm give the interpolation weights at the intergrid boundary point. Numerical results are presented for steady ...
On lossless intra coding in HEVC with 3-tap filters
Alvar, Saeed Ranjbar; Kamışlı, Fatih (2016-09-01)
This paper presents a pixel-by-pixel spatial prediction method for lossless intra coding within High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). Previous pixel-by-pixel spatial prediction methods use only two neighboring pixels for prediction, based on the angular projection idea borrowed from block-based intra prediction in lossy coding, or are based on ad hoc methods applied in some intra modes. This paper explores a pixel-by-pixel prediction method which uses three neighboring pixels for prediction according to a tw...
A 2-D unsteady Navier-Stokes solution method with overlapping/overset moving grids
Tuncer, İsmail Hakkı (1996-01-01)
A simple, robust numerical algorithm to localize intergrid boundary points and to interpolate unsteady solution variables across 2-D, overset/overlapping, structured computational grids is presented. Overset/ overlapping grids are allowed to move in time relative to each other. The intergrid boundary points are localized in terms of three grid points on the donor grid by a directional search algorithm. The final parameters of the search algorithm give the interpolation weights at the interpolation point. Th...
A low-cost 128x128 uncooled infrared detector array in CMOS process
Eminoglu, Selim; Tanrikulu, Mahmud Yusuf; Akın, Tayfun (2008-02-01)
This paper discusses the implementation of a low-cost 128 x 128 uncooled infrared microbolometer detector array together with its integrated readout circuit (ROC) using a standard 0.35 mu m n-well CMOS and post-CMOS MEMS processes. The detector array can be created with simple bulk-micromachining processes after the CMOS fabrication, without the need for any complicated lithography or deposition steps. The array detectors are based on suspended p(+)-active/n-well diode microbolometers with a pixel size of 4...
Attitude estimation and magnetometer calibration using reconfigurable TRIAD plus filtering approach
Söken, Halil Ersin (Elsevier BV, 2020-04-01)
This paper proposes using TRIAD and Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) algorithms in a sequential architecture as a part of a small satellite attitude estimation algorithm. This TRIAD+UKF approach can both provide accurate attitude estimates for the satellite and calibrate the magnetometers in real-time. A complete calibration model for the magnetometers, considering bias, scale factor, soft iron and nonorthogonality errors, is assumed. In the algorithm's first stage, the TRIAD uses the available vector measurem...
