TY - JOUR AU - Nasser, Peter TI - Analysis of Harmonic Distortion using Finite Element Analysis JO - Open Access Journal of Engineering Applications PY - 1987 VL - 11 IS - 1 SP - 619 EP - 644 AB - Limited foreign exchange makes the local optimisation of harmonic distortion particularly attractive for earthquake-resistant construction. The governing differential equations are discretised and solved by finite element analysis on a microcomputer. Agreement between theory and experiment is satisfactory, with a maximum deviation of 13%. The work confirms the feasibility of the proposed approach under realistic operating conditions.
