A Robust Maximum Power Point Tracking Control Method for a PEM Fuel Cell Power System
(MDPI, 2018-12-01)
Taking into account the limited capability of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) to produce energy, it is mandatory to provide solutions, in which an efficient power produced by PEMFCs can be attained. The maximum ...
Development of a Test-Bench for the Accurate Positioning of Scintillation Detector Modules for Medical Imaging Applications
(Servicio Editorial de la Universidad del País Vasco/Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatearen Argitalpen Zerbitzua, 2018)
When assessing the impact of novel concepts of scintillation block detectors for PET tomography by measuring the performance of single modules, or one module in coincidence with another, it is not trivial to translate the ...
Agent based modeling of energy networks
(Elsevier, 2014-04-03)
Attempts to model any present or future power grid face a huge challenge because a power grid is a complex system, with feedback and multi-agent behaviors, integrated by generation, distribution, storage and consumption ...
An adaptive sliding mode control law for the power maximization of the wind turbine system
(IEEE, 2011)
The actual wind turbines are provided with adjustable speed generators, like the double feed induction generator, that are capable to work in variable speed operations. One of the main advantage of adjustable speed generators ...
Sliding mode control strategy for variable speed wind turbines
(IEEE, 2009)
The efficiency of the wind power conversions systems can be greatly improved using an appropriate control algorithm. In this work, a robust control for variable speed wind power generation that incorporates a doubly feed ...
Object oriented simulation of hybrid renewable energy systems focused on supervisor control
(IEEE, 2009)
With eyes focused on simulation the authors review some of the main topics of Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems (HRES). Then they describe an Object Oriented model of a simple example of one of such systems, a micro-grid, ...
Emergent synchronisation properties of a refrigerator demand side management system
(Elsevier, 2013-01)
In order to analyse the possibilities of improving grid stability on island systems by local demand response mechanisms,a multi-agent simulation model is presented. To support the primary reserve, an under-frequency load ...
Towards complex system design and management in the engineering domain – the smart grid challenge
(Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 2013-06-30)
Our world is facing a significant challenge from climate change and global warming, coupled with an increased awareness about the importance of preserving the environment. This challenge calls for us to use our resources ...
Linear Chromatic Adaptation Transform Based on Delaunay Triangulation
(Hindawi Publishing, 2014)
Computer vision algorithms that use color information require color constant images to operate correctly. Color constancy of the images is usually achieved in two steps: first the illuminant is detected and then image is ...
Multi-agent modelling for the simulation of a simple smart microgrid
(Elsevier, 2013-11)
The smart grid is a highly complex system that is being formed from the traditional power grid, adding new and sophisticated communication and control devices. This will enable integrating new elements for distributed power ...
