Displacement control in PWK-type pumps
PublicationThe most important, strategic goal however is creation of the variable displacement version of the new pump PWK. Thanks to full discharge of it's commutation mechanism from hydrostatic forces the variable pump can be directly controlled by low-energy actuator like proportional electromagnet or stepping motor. It means that costly and complicated hydraulic servomechanism (applied in all present variable displacement pumps) is no...

A bisection‐based heuristic for rapid EM‐driven multiobjective design of compact impedance transformers
PublicationDesign of microwave structures is a multiobjective task where several conflicting requirements have to be considered at the same time. For contemporary circuits characterized by complex geometries, multiobjective optimization cannot be performed using standard population‐based algorithms due to high cost of electromagnetic (EM) evaluations. In this work, we propose a deterministic approach for fast EM‐driven multiobjective design...
