Taylor-Fourier PMU on a Real-Time Simulator: Design, Implementation and Characterization

Mario Paolone, Asja Derviskadic, Guglielmo Frigo, Yihui Zuo, Alexandre Bach

The development of software models of Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) within Real-Time Simulators (RTSs) represents a promising tool for the design and validation of monitoring and control applications in electrical power networks. In this sense, it is nec ...

Velocity alignment promotes motility-induced phase separation

We study the phase behavior of polar active Brownian particles moving in two-spatial dimensions and interacting through volume exclusion and velocity alignment. We combine particle-based simulations of the microscopic model with a simple mean-field kinetic ...

Programmable Multistable Mechanisms: Design, modeling, characterization and applications

Mohamed Gamal Abdelrahman Ahmed Zanaty

Multistable Mechanisms are mechanical devices having more than one stable state. Since these mechanisms can maintain different deformations with zero force, they are advantageous for low power environments such as wristwatches and medical devices. In this ...

Insights into photovoltaic properties of ternary organic solar cells from phase diagrams

Roland Hany, Jakob Heier, Philippe Schwaller, Surendra Babu Anantharaman

The efficiency of ternary organic solar cells relies on the spontaneous establishment of a nanostructured network of donor and acceptor phases during film formation. A fundamental understanding of phase composition and arrangement and correlations to photo ...

Geometric phases in discrete dynamical systems

Nicolas Piro Mastracchio

In order to study the behaviour of discrete dynamical systems under adiabatic cyclic variations of their parameters, we consider discrete versions of adiabatically-rotated rotators. Parallelling the studies in continuous systems, we generalize the concept ...

Stability Considerations for Variable Impedance Control

Aude Billard, Klas Jonas Alfred Kronander

Impedance control is a commonly used control architecture for robotic manipulation. For increased flexibility, the impedance can be programmed to vary during the task. This has important implications on the stability properties of the control system, which ...

Kinetic model for calcium sulfate alpha-hemihydrate produced hydrothermally from gypsum formed by flue gas desulfurization

Xuerun Li

Modeling of the kinetics of the synthesis process for calcium sulfate alpha-hemihydrate from gypsum formed by flue gas desulfurization (FGD) is important to produce high-performance products with minimal costs and production cycles under hydrothermal condi ...

Solid heat-expandable polylactide-poly(methyl methacrylate) foam precursors prepared by immersion in liquid carbon dioxide

John Christopher Plummer, Yonghoon Yoon

Solid heat-expandable foam precursors were prepared by impregnating melt-blended poly(d,l-lactide) (PDLLA)-poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blends with liquid carbon dioxide (CO2). The phase behavior of these blends was strongly dependent on the processing ...

Nucleation of Silicon Nanoparticles in Amorphous Silicon Dioxide Matrices

Simone Meloni

In this contribution I summarize our research on the formation of nanoparticles embedded in a-SiO2-x matrices. In particular, I focus on the Si diffusion in SiO2-x matrices, and amorphous-to-crystalline phase transition in Si nanoparticles embedded in SiO2 ...

Dispatching rule-based algorithms for a dynamic flexible flow shop scheduling problem with time-dependent process defect rate and quality feedback

Paul Xirouchakis, Yong Chan Choi, Byung Jun Joo

We consider a three-stage dynamic flexible flow shop scheduling problem in which jobs of multiple types arrive dynamically over time, a quality feedback mechanism is present, and the setup timing and the process defect rate are closely related. At each mac ...
