General Sensorless Method with Parameter Identification and Double Kalman Filter Applied to a Bistable Fast Linear Switched Reluctance Actuator for Textile Machine

Yves Perriard, Douglas Martins Araujo, Faguy Tamwo Simo

This paper provides a general sensorless method to control the position of a linear actuator. After a review of the solutions used so far, this new method is applied to identify keys passing through a linear actuator used in an industrial textile machine. ...

Sensorless Method with Parameter Identification Applied to a Bistable Fast Linear Switched Reluctance Actuator for Textile Machine

Yves Perriard, Douglas Martins Araujo, Faguy Tamwo Simo

This paper provides a sensorless method to control the position of keys passing through a linear actuator used in an industrial textile machine. The presented method describes how to find out the position of the key using two cascading discrete Kalman filt ...

Spider silk: a novel optical fibre for biochemical sensing

Luc Thévenaz, Kenny Hey Tow, Isabelle Dicaire, Desmond Chow Ming Chia

Whilst being thoroughly used in the textile industry and biomedical sector, silk has not yet been exploited for fibre optics-based sensing although silk fibres directly obtained from spiders can guide light and have shown early promises to being sensitive ...

Performance and characterization of Ag-cotton and Ag/TiO2 loaded textiles during the abatement of E. coli

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Danièle Laub, Hans Jörg Mathieu

The bacterial inactivation of Escherichia coli on Ag–cotton textiles were investigated under different experimental conditions with novel Ag-nanoparticles fixed on cotton textiles. The evaluation of the bactericide performance of the Ag–cotton was compared ...
