Intelligent control of doubly‐fed induction generator systems using PIDNNs

An intelligent control for a stand‐alone doubly‐fed induction generator (DFIG) system using a proportional‐integral‐derivative neural network (PIDNN) is proposed in this study. This system can be applied as a stand‐alone power supply system or as the emergency power system when the electricity grid fails for all sub‐synchronous, synchronous, and super‐synchronous conditions. The rotor side converter is controlled using field‐oriented control to produce 3‐phase stator voltages with constant magnitude and frequency at different rotor speeds. Moreover, the grid side converter, which is also controlled using field‐oriented control, is primarily implemented to maintain the magnitude of the DC‐link voltage. Furthermore, the intelligent PIDNN controller is proposed for both the rotor and grid side converters to improve the transient and steady‐state responses of the DFIG system for different operating conditions. Both the network structure and online learning algorithm are introduced in detail. Finally, the feasibility of the proposed control scheme is verified through experimentation.

Ionic transport studies of the glassy silver vanadomolybdate system

Ionic conductivity of the Ag₂O-MoO₃-V₂0₅ system has been studied over a wide range of frequency, temperature and composition. A narrower glass forming region has been found in comparison to the corresponding Ag₂O-MoO₃-P₂O₅ and Ag₂O-B₂O₃-P₂O₅ systems. The highest conductivity at room temperature, _rt, = 3.21 × 10^–6–1 cm^–1 (d.c.) with an activation energy,E _act, of 0.466 eV, was observed for the glass former's ratio of unity. Further, it reached a maximum value of 2.2 × 10^–2¨-1 cm^–1 withE _act = 0.153 eV when the oxide-base glass was dissolved with Agl. D.c. conductivity, hopping rate and relaxation time in the present system have been found to be characterized by the same activation energy.

针对氢化脱氢钛合金粉末氧含量较高的问题，研究了添加稀土钕对激光快速成形TC4合金组织及性能的影响。结果发现，添加稀土Nd后，激光快速成形TC4合金的宏观晶粒尺寸变化不大；但随稀土添加量的增加，初始β列状晶逐渐转化为全β等轴晶，晶粒内部的魏氏α组织逐渐转变为网篮α，粗化α条不断增多，呈现团束聚集趋势，晶界α集束体积分数也不断增大；随稀土添加量的增加，激光快速成形TC4合金的室温塑性先大幅度提高，然后急剧降低；稀土添加量为0．1％～0．2％（质量分数，下同）时，氧含量为0．26％的氢化脱氢TC4合金粉末激光快速成形件沉积态的抗拉强度达975MPa，延伸率9．5％，满足锻件标准要求。

Synthesis and characterization of aromatic polyisoimides derived from PMDA and para-diamines. An approach to in situ generated rigid-rod molecular composites

A new concept for the processing and fabrication of rigid-rod molecular composites aiming at the elimination or minimization of phase separation is proposed. This approach calls for a coil-like aromatic polyisoimide which is soluble and compatible with an amorphous matrix polymer or thermosettable oligomer and can undergo facile transformation to the corresponding rigid-rod polyimide in solid composite state, thus imparting the inherently high strength/high modulus properties to the final form. To this end, various synthetic routes were explored to obtain para-diamines which could afford high molecular weight and aprotic-solvent-soluble polyisoimides upon polymerization with pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA). Four such polyisoimides were prepared, with their inherent viscosities ranging from 0.25 to 1.89 dl g⁻¹ in dimethylacetamide at 30°C. Facile thermally induced isoimide-imide conversion was demonstrated by solid-state (film) Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. A preliminary evaluation of the compatibility of the polyisoimide/matrix resin was made. In one instance, a film prepared from the polyisoimide derived from PMDA and 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) showed no visually detectable phase separation.

Optimum sweeps of simple polygons with two guards

A polygon P admits a sweep if two mobile guards can detect an unpredictable, moving target inside P  , no matter how fast the target moves. Two guards move on the polygon boundary and are required to always be mutually visible. The objective of this study is to find an optimum sweep such that the sum of the distances travelled by the two guards in the sweep is minimized. We present an O(n²)$O(n^2)$ time and O(n)$O(n)$ space algorithm for optimizing this metric, where n   is the number of vertices of the given polygon. Our result is obtained by reducing this problem to finding a shortest path between two nodes in a graph of size O(n)$O(n)$.     

Reciprocating flow ion exchange part II: Application to saline water softening

The “hardness” components in sea water can be considerably reduced by means of a new economical fixed bed technique called “Reciprocating Flow Ion Exchange”, when used in conjunction with a closed cycle exchanger-evaporator system. Removal of 87.9% of the calcium and 54.5% of the magnesium in sea water has been obtained with an overall flow rate of 5.0 U. S. g. p. m./sq. ft. Results from bench scale and a 5,000 g. p. d. pilot plant were identical. The virtually continuous cyclic steady-state process requires a small amount of exchanger (0.5 to 2% of the usual ion exchange methods, such as conventional fixed beds or fluidized beds). The effects of variation in operating parameters are discussed.     

Synthesis and characterization of superabsorbent hydrogels composites based on polysuccinimide

A kind of novel superabsorbent hydrogel with high swelling ratio property that could be used for the development of water absorbing resin, soil water retention agent, and chemical sand‐fixing material was synthesized in this study. The hydrogels were prepared by the crosslinking reaction of polysuccinimide (PSI). The relationships between swelling ratio and volume of solvent as well as the concentration of crosslinking agent were investigated in detail. Several composites, such as starch, carrageenan, and polyacrylamide, were added into hydrogels to enhance the swelling ratio. It was found that the swelling ratio was significantly increased, which the maximum water absorbency was enhanced 2.46 times when the composite polyacrylamide (PAM) was added compared to the control. The effects of ionic strength and sensitivity of pH on hydrogels were also studied. The modified hydrogels products with swelling ratio less sensitivity to the salinity as well as relative high swelling ration in salinity system were also obtained by adding PAM. Through the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) characterizations, the crosslinking reaction mechanism and the structure of composite were proposed. In addition, the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) examinations showed that some composite materials elevated the physical crosslinked and connected channels density substantially. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
