The term “ smart grid ” defi nes a self - healing network equipped with dynamic optimiza-
tion techniques that use real - time measurements to minimize network losses, maintain
voltage levels, increase reliability, and improve asset management. The operational data
collected by the smart grid and ...
n present power system, the engineers face variety of challenges in
planning, construction and operation. In some of the problems, the engineers need
to use managerial talents. In system design or upgrading the entire system into
automatic control instead of slow response of human operator, the engi ...
For many years prior to the 1970s, engineers designed and built switch mode
power supplies (SMPSs) using methods based largely on intuitive and exper-
imentally derived techniques. In general, these power supplies were able to
achieve their primary goal of high-efficiency power conversion; unfortu-
...
Switched systems are embedded devices widespread in industrial
applications such as power electronics and automotive control. They
consist of continuous-time dynamical subsystems and a rule that
controls the switching between them. Under a suitable control rule, the
system can improve its steady-sta ...
Sensors are points ofcontact betweenthe material world ofatoms, mass, andenergy
and the seemingly immaterial world of information, computation, and cognition.
Linking these two domains more tightly yields all sorts of practical benefits, such as

This reference design describes the design of a 3-phase AC induction
vector control drive with position encoder coupled to the motor shaft. It
is based on Motorola’s DSP56F805 dedicated motor control device.
AC induction motors, which contain a cage, are very popular in variable
speed drives. They ...
The past decade has seen an explosion of machine learning research and appli-
cations; especially, deep learning methods have enabled key advances in many
applicationdomains,suchas computervision,speechprocessing,andgameplaying.
However, the performance of many machine learning methods is very sensi ...
Current field forecast verification measures are inadequate, primarily because they compress the comparison
between two complex spatial field processes into one number. Discrete wavelet transforms (DWTs) applied to
analysis and contemporaneous forecast fields prove to be an insightful approach to ve ...
Research on microwave power amplififiers has gained a growing importance demanded by the many continuously developing applications which require such subsystem performance. A broad set of commercial and strategic systems in fact have their overall performance boosted by the power amplififier, the la ...
This paper presents a new type of electromagnetic damper with rotating inertial mass that has been devel
oped to control the vibrations of structures subjected to earthquakes. The electromagnetic inertial mass
damper (EIMD) consists of a ball screw that converts axial oscillation of the rod ...
