Advanced control scheme of doubly fed induction generator for wind turbine us...IJECEIAES
This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.

The presentation also covers the positive and negative aspects of inductive bias, along with strategies for mitigating potential drawbacks. We'll explore examples of how bias manifests in algorithms like neural networks and decision trees.
By understanding inductive bias, you can gain valuable insights into how machine learning models work and make informed decisions when building and deploying them.
Electric vehicle and photovoltaic advanced roles in enhancing the financial p...IJECEIAES
Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network
CHINA’S GEO-ECONOMIC OUTREACH IN CENTRAL ASIAN COUNTRIES AND FUTURE PROSPECTjpsjournal1
The rivalry between prominent international actors for dominance over Central Asia's hydrocarbon
reserves and the ancient silk trade route, along with China's diplomatic endeavours in the area, has been
referred to as the "New Great Game." This research centres on the power struggle, considering
geopolitical, geostrategic, and geoeconomic variables. Topics including trade, political hegemony, oil
politics, and conventional and nontraditional security are all explored and explained by the researcher.
Using Mackinder's Heartland, Spykman Rimland, and Hegemonic Stability theories, examines China's role
in Central Asia. This study adheres to the empirical epistemological method and has taken care of
objectivity. This study analyze primary and secondary research documents critically to elaborate role of
china’s geo economic outreach in central Asian countries and its future prospect. China is thriving in trade,
pipeline politics, and winning states, according to this study, thanks to important instruments like the
Shanghai Cooperation Organisation and the Belt and Road Economic Initiative. According to this study,
China is seeing significant success in commerce, pipeline politics, and gaining influence on other
governments. This success may be attributed to the effective utilisation of key tools such as the Shanghai
Cooperation Organisation and the Belt and Road Economic Initiative.
Harnessing WebAssembly for Real-time Stateless Streaming PipelinesChristina Lin
Traditionally, dealing with real-time data pipelines has involved significant overhead, even for straightforward tasks like data transformation or masking. However, in this talk, we’ll venture into the dynamic realm of WebAssembly (WASM) and discover how it can revolutionize the creation of stateless streaming pipelines within a Kafka (Redpanda) broker. These pipelines are adept at managing low-latency, high-data-volume scenarios.
We have compiled the most important slides from each speaker's presentation. This year’s compilation, available for free, captures the key insights and contributions shared during the DfMAy 2024 conference.
1. Aspects of HydroCAD Models For
Review
Chris Chatfield, P.E.
Based on HydroCAD Software Solutions, LLC Webinar
2. Overview
Here are the following areas of HydroCAD that may be reviewed to ensure the model
matches desired hydrologic criteria:
1. Subcatchment Node Report
2. Calculation Settings
3. Reach Node Report
4. Automatic Input Warning Messages
5. Link Node Report
6. Pond Node Report
It is important to note that specification of HydroCAD as the ‘method of water
resource calculation’ is not a sufficient explanation due to the variety of methods.
3. Subcatchment Node Report
Subcatchment Node
Purpose
● models the effect of rainfall on part of the
watershed and produces a runoff hydrograph
Typical Use ● drainage area
User Inputs
● area, curve number (value not from table will
have an asterix)and time of concentration
Calculated Outputs
● flow, volume, depth, and velocity/capacity of
time of concentration segments
4. Calculation Settings - General Tab
Reach Routing Method
Storage Indication
Storage Indication + Translation
Dynamic Storage Indication
Simultaneous
Muskingum Cunge
● the time step should be
less than ⅕ of time of
concentration
Dynamic Muskingum Cunge
● may respond to tailwater
effects
Pond Routing Method
Storage Indication
● stage storage with
stage discharge
Dynamic Storage Ind.
● compensates for
changing tailwater
Simultaneous
● reevaluates discharge
at each time step
Runoff Method
SCS Unit Hydrograph
Santa Barbara Urban Hydrograph
● similar to SCS
● may need to separate
impervious and pervious
calculations
Rational
● not used for detention pond
design or analysis
Note: Reach and pond routing methods must be compatible
5. Rainfall Options Tab
● Rainfall Event
○ frequency of storm
● Storm Type
○ over 30 types, ex. Type II 24 hr
● Storm Curve
○ curve within a specific storm type,
ex. Type 1 of RSA 24hr storm type
● Storm Duration & Depth
● AMC
○ moisture level in ground before
storm, default is 2
Unit Hydro Tab
● Unit Hydrograph
○ SCS & over 15 others
6. Reach Node Report
Reach Node Purpose
● shows effect of a hydrograph being routed
through a uniform stream
Typical Use
● open channel ditch or partially full pipe
● full pipe is a pond with a culvert outflow
User Inputs ● n value, length, slope, and invert/outlet
Calculated Outputs ● inflow/outflow, velocity, and peak storage
7. Automatic Output
Warning Messages
● HydroCAD automatically Checks Inputs
For Errors After Calculations
● Red warnings must be addressed
● Yellow warnings are suggestions
● Examples of Errors
○ exceeded node capacity
○ longer time span for calculation advised
○ node had no inflow
○ dam breach started at x.xx hrs.
○ culvert outlet resized to xx”
○ non default antecedent moisture content
○ tailwater condition issue
■ change pond routing method
○ pipe Is Detaining Water
■ should be modeled as a pond
