A Potential Function for the Power Flow in DC Microgrids: An Analysis of the Uniqueness and Existence of the Solution and Convergence of the Algorithms
(Springer New York LLC, 2019)
The power flow equations in DC microgrids are nonlinear due to the presence of constant power terminals. In this context, a rigorous demonstration of the convergence and uniqueness of the solution for Newton’s method is ...
Effect of a commercial air valve on the rapid filling of a single pipeline: A numerical and experimental analysis
(MDPI AG, 2019)
The filling process in water pipelines produces pressure surges caused by the compression of air pockets. In this sense, air valves should be appropriately designed to expel sufficient air to avoid pipeline failure. Recent ...
Hydraulic modeling during filling and emptying processes in pressurized pipelines: a literature review
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2019)
Filling and emptying processes are common maneuvers while operating, controlling and managing water pipeline systems. Currently, these operations are executed following recommendations from technical manuals and pipe ...
Computational fluid dynamics for sub-atmospheric pressure analysis in pipe drainage
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2019)
The occurrence of sub-atmospheric pressure in the drainage of pipelines containing an air pocket has been known as a major cause of several serious problems. Accordingly, some system malfunction and pipe buckling events ...
Transient phenomena during the emptying process of a single pipe with water–air interaction
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2019)
Emptying pipelines can be critical in many water distribution networks because subatmospheric pressure troughs could cause considerable damage to the system due to the expansion of entrapped air. Researchers have given ...
Optimal design of transmission shafts: A continuous genetic algorithm approach
(International Academic Press, 2019)
This paper presents an analysis of the optimal design of transmission shafts by adopting the approach of a novel continuous genetic algorithm. The optimization case study is formulated as a single-objective optimization ...
From a Home-Area-Network to a Secure Internet of Things Application
(Springer, 2019)
In this paper, we present a secure system to control devices at home through the web, which we implement based on the Do It Yourself (DIY) culture. We use a model based on the Goal Question Metric approach to evaluate the ...
Texture Analysis of Ultrasound Images for Pneumonia Detection in Pediatric Patients
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019)
Pneumonia is a condition that can be life-threatening and affects a high number of children around the world. Lung ultrasound can be used for the diagnosis of pneumonia, but requires high experience. This paper presents ...
Power flow solution in direct current grids using the linear conjugate gradient approach
(2019-09-24)
The Colombian power system is being modified by the large-scale integration of renewable energy resources and energy storage systems, in conjunction with the microgrid concept that originates the possibility of alternating ...
Voice compression using discrete cosine transform and wavelet transform
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2019)
Compressing information, such as voice, allows freeing up memory space, better utilizing bandwidth, in other words taking advantage of resources more efficiently in a time where technologies such as Voice over Internet ...
