Optimal Linear Controller for Minimizing DC Voltage Oscillations in MMC-Based Offshore Multiterminal HVDC Grids

The paper aims at minimizing DC voltage oscillations in offshore multiterminal high-voltage direct current (HVDC) grids based on modular multilevel converters (MMCs). The DC voltage stability is a crucial factor in multiterminal HVDC networks since it is a ...

Harmonic Power-Flow Study of Polyphase Grids with Converter-Interfaced Distributed Energy Resources, Part II: Model Library and Validation

Mario Paolone, Lorenzo Enrique Reyes Chamorro, Andreas Martin Kettner, Johanna Kristin Maria Becker

In Part I, a method for the Harmonic Power-Flow (HPF) study of three-phase power grids with Converter-Interfaced Distributed Energy Resources (CIDERs) is proposed. The method is based on generic and modular representations of the grid and the CIDERs, and e ...

Reference tracking stochastic model predictive control over unreliable channels and bounded control actions

Colin Neil Jones

A stochastic model predictive control framework over unreliable Bernoulli communication channels, in the presence of unbounded process noise and under bounded control inputs, is presented for tracking a reference signal. The data losses in the control chan ...

Emergence of diauxie as an optimal growth strategy under resource allocation constraints in cellular metabolism

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Pierre Guy Rémy Salvy

Diauxie, or the sequential consumption of carbohydrates in bacteria such as Escherichia coli, has been hypothesized to be an evolutionary strategy which allows the organism to maximize its instantaneous specific growth-giving the bacterium a competitive ad ...

Harmonic Power-Flow Study of Polyphase Grids with Converter-Interfaced Distributed Energy Resources, Part I: Modelling Framework and Algorithm

Mario Paolone, Lorenzo Enrique Reyes Chamorro, Andreas Martin Kettner, Johanna Kristin Maria Becker

Power distribution systems are experiencing a largescale integration of Converter-Interfaced Distributed Energy Resources (CIDERs). This complicates the analysis and mitigation of harmonics, whose creation and propagation are facilitated by the interaction ...

Automatic locking of a parametrically resonating, base-excited, nonlinear beam

Amit Yedidia Dolev

Described is a closed-loop control scheme capable of stabilizing a parametrically excited nonlinear structure in several vibration modes. By setting the relative phase between the spatially filtered response and the excitation, the open-loop unstable solut ...

A hybrid control strategy for force and precise end effector positioning of a twisted string actuator

Jamie Paik, Andres San Millan Rodriguez

We propose a new control approach for the twisted string actuation (TSA) system; a hybrid control scheme consisting of two nested loops, considering the motor angle and the axial force at the clamping point of the actuator as the system outputs. We show th ...

MMC-based conversion for MVDC applications

Stefan Milovanovic

In recent years, DC grids have gained momentum due to the advantages they display over their AC counterparts. For instance, high voltage DC grids have been established as the most prominent solution in the underwater power transmission or interconnection o ...

Control Strategy for the Discharge Phase of an Ultra-High Voltage (>7kV) Bi-Directional Flyback Converter Driving Capacitive Actuators

Yves Perriard, Alexis Boegli, Raphaël Johannes Charles Mottet

Dielectric Elastomer Actuators (DEAs) require ultra high voltages in the order of several kilo volts to operate. To supply such voltages, a DC-DC flyback converter topology was selected. One of the main advantage of using such a structure is the possibilit ...

Improving sound absorption through nonlinear active electroacoustic resonators

Hervé Lissek, Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Xinxin Guo

Absorbing airborne noise at frequencies below 300 Hz is a particularly vexing problem due to the absence of natural sound absorbing materials at these frequencies. The prevailing solution for low-frequency sound absorption is the use of passive narrow-band ...
