Synchronisation and Circuit Realisation of Chaotic Hartley System

Abstract Hartley chaotic system is topologically the simplest, but its dynamical behaviours are very rich and its synchronisation has not been seen in literature. This paper aims to introduce a simple chaotic system which can be used as alternative to classical chaotic systems in synchronisation fields. Time series, phase portraits, and bifurcation diagrams reveal the dynamics of the mentioned system. Chaotic Hartley model is also supported with electronic circuit model simulations. Its exponential dynamics are hard to realise on circuit model; this paper is the first in literature that handles such a complex modelling problem. Modelling, synchronisation, and circuit realisation of the Hartley system are implemented respectively in MATLAB-Simulink and ORCAD environments. The effectiveness of the applied synchronisation method is revealed via numerical methods, and the results are discussed. Retrieved results show that this complex chaotic system can be used in secure communication fields.

Multi-DGAS: A pattern based educational framework design for power transformers faults interpretation and comparative performance analysis

Taking necessary measures in advance for early prediction of the transformer failures are very crucial. Dissolved gas in oil analysis (DGA) techniques that used in electrical power systems has become an internationally accepted standard in condition based maintenance (CBM) studies have high complexity and increasing demands of the quick‐service‐ready paradigm in power transformers. This standard includes the implementation steps of various complex DGA methods named basic gas, Rogers, Doernenburg, Duval triangle, and pentagon. Mentioned methods are quite complicated and their application steps are strict rules defined in detailed procedures. The adaptation of these methods to transformer maintenance procedures that prepared according to standards and tested for correctness creates a valuable tool. In this study, a pattern based educational framework has been designed to integrate state of arts DGA techniques help for trainers, graduate researchers working on DGA techniques, and also for maintenance teams while taking critical decisions on power transformers. Developed Multi‐DGAS educational framework is designed for modular construction that can be integrated with online condition monitoring and diagnostic systems for electric power systems. Success of the proposed framework revealed with newly proposed pentagon method in regard with comparison of classical methods by using oil samples which have been taken under the energized condition of different 135 transformers within multi‐phase which failure histories already known. Analysis of dissolved gases in transformer oil is performed according to ASTM‐D 3612 procedure using 3800 GC Varian gas chromatograph apparatus.
