A modern power grid needs to become smarter in order to provide an affordable,
reliable, and sustainable supply of electricity. For these reasons, a smart grid is
necessary to manage and control the increasingly complex future grid. Certain
smart grid elements including renewable energy, storage, mi ...
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 ...
The electrical power grid is often referred to as one of the most complex man-
made systems on Earth. Its importance to all aspects of our daily lives, economic
stability, and national security cannot be overstated, and the need for an updated,
secure, resilient, and smarter power grid infrastructur ...
This chapter surveys the high temperature and oxygen partial pressure
behavior of complex oxide heterostructures as determined by in situ synchrotron
X-ray methods. We consider both growth and post-growth behavior, emphasizing
the observation of structural and interfacial defects relevant to t ...
Modern power systems involve large amount of investment. An electric power
system comprises of generation, transmission, and distribution of electric energy.
Growth of power systems has led to very complex networks extended across large
areas. In such situations, the proper functioning of a modern p ...
MIT App Inventor is an innovative beginner’s introduction to programming and app
creation that transforms the complex language of text-based coding into visual, drag-and-
drop building blocks. The simple graphical interface grants even an inexperienced novice
the ability to create a basic, fully fu ...
This book was written by Michael Margolis with Nick Weldin to help you explore the
amazing things you can do with Arduino.
Arduino is a family of microcontrollers (tiny computers) and a software creation envi-
ronment that makes it easy for you to create programs (called sketches) that can interact
...
There exist two essentially different approaches to the study of dynamical systems, based on
the following distinction:
time-continuous nonlinear differential equations ⇋ time-discrete maps
One approach starts from time-continuous differential equations and leads to time-discrete
maps, which are ob ...
Recent years have seen a rapid development of neural network control tech-
niques and their successful applications. Numerous simulation studies and
actual industrial implementations show that artificial neural network is a good
candidate for function approximation and control system design in solvi ...
Forewords to books can play a variety of roles. One is to describe in
more general terms what the book is about. That’s not really neces-
sary, since Jim Sterne is a master at communicating complex topics in
relatively simple terms.
