However, for the existing control strategies based on nonlinear model of wind turbines, the MPPT efficiencies are improved at the cost of the intensive fluctuation of generator torque and significant increase of transient load on drive train shaft. Hence, in this paper, a nonlinear controller with variable parameter is proposed for improving MPPT efficiency and mitigating transient load on drive-train simultaneously. Then,simulations on FAST(Fatigue, Aerodynamics, Structures, and Turbulence) code and experiments on the wind turbine simulator(WTS) based test bench are presented to verify the efficiency improvement of the proposed control strategy with less cost of drive-train load.展开更多

The time delays are assumed to be dependent on the system modes. Delay-dependent conditions for the solvability of these problems are obtained via parameter-dependent Lyapunov functionals. Furthermore, it is shown that the desired state feedback controller can be designed by solving a set of linear matrix inequalities. Finally, the simulation is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.展开更多

Two different concepts of the dual systems are proposed for the 2-D SRM. One is derived from the duality defined for two-dimensional singular general models (2-D SGM)-called the S-dual systems; the other one is defined based on 2-D SRM in a traditional sense-called the T-dual systems. It is shown that if a 2-D SRM is jump-mode free or jump-mode reachable, then it can be equivalently transformed into a canonical form of a 2-D SRM, for which the T-duality and the S-duality are equivalent. This will be of some perspective applications in the robust control of 2-D SRM.展开更多

文摘The microstructure and phase evolution of Mg-10.16Li-8.14Al-1.46Er alloy of as-cast,250℃+12 h,300℃+12 h,and 400℃+12 h were studied by optical microscopy,scanning electron microscope,and X-ray diffraction.The mechanical properties of Mg-10.16Li-8.14Al-1.46Er alloy in different states were tested by microhardness tester and tension tester.The corrosion resistance of Mg-10.16Li-8.14Al-1.46Er alloy in different states was measured by electrochemical workstation combined with hydrogen evolution and mass loss tests.The results show that the microstructure of as-cast Mg-10.16Li-8.14Al-1.46Er alloy consists ofα,β,AlLi,Al3Er and MgAlLi_(2)phases.Changes of microstructure are morphology and quantity ofαphase,and second phases of MgAlLi_(2)and AlLi by heat treatments at different temperatures.The best comprehensive tensile properties of Mg-10.16Li-8.14Al-1.46Er at 400℃are attributed to theαphase structure,solution strengthening and second phase strengthening.After heat treatments at different temperatures,the corrosion resistance of Mg-10.16Li-8.14Al-1.46Er was improved compared with as-cast samples.The Mg-10.16Li-8.14Al-1.46Er alloy has the best corrosion resistance at 250℃due to the best homogenization at this temperature.

文摘Background Despite many advances in the treatment for extracranial arteriovenous malformations(AVMs),they still result in tedious dissection and potential unacceptable complications,particularly in children.Therefore,this study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of intralesional interstitial injection of bleomycin for the treatment of children with AVMs.Methods A total of 10 children(6 boys and 4 girls)with AVMs were treated with serial interstitial bleomycin injections between May 2014 and January 2017.Maximum single doses of 15 U and 1 U/kg per session were administered for six sessions at a 1-month interval.Therapeutic effectiveness was evaluated and classified into four categories:complete response(CR),partial response(PR),no response,and worsening at 3 months after the last session.Further clinical follow-up outcomes were classified as improved,stable,or aggravated.Adverse events were recorded according to the Society of Interventional Radiology classification.Results All 10 children completed the sessions and follow-ups.CR occurred in 3(30%)patients,PR in 6(60%),and no response in 1(20%).Minor complications(class A)included maculopapular rash,bulla,vomiting,and hyperpigmentation,whereas no major complications occurred.Conclusion Intralesional interstitial injection of bleomycin is a feasible approach for the treatment of AVMs in children and provides safe and effective outcomes.This method may be an earlier treatment alternative in children to prevent potential destructive progression,considering the serious complications of currently available therapeutic methods.

文摘We propose an absolute distance measurement method that employs heterodyne and superheterodyne combined interferometers to achieve synchronous detection and demodulation of multiwavelengths.Coarse and fine synthetic wavelengths are generated by a dual-longitudinal-mode He-Ne laser and four acoustic optical frequency shifters.Further,to improve phase synchronization measurement for multiwavelengths,we analyze the demodulation characteristics of coarse and fine measurement signals and adopt a demodulation method suitable for both signals.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve high-precision synchronous demodulation of multiwavelengths,and standard deviation is 1.7×10^(-5)m in a range of 2 m.

文摘Optimal torque(OT)control is a widely used method for maximum power point tracking(MPPT)due to its simplicity.In order to overcome the adverse impacts of turbulent wind speed variations on MPPT,in several methods,modification factors have been proposed to dynamically modify the ideal power curve for OT control.However,this paper finds that the update cycles used in existing methods to adjust power curve modification factors are very long and hence these factors are difficult to be updated in a timely manner along with the wind speed variations.This thereby may deteriorate the effectiveness of wind energy extraction.Therefore,an optimal decreased torque gain(DTG)control method is proposed in this paper.Based on the persistence method,an offline mapping from the wind speed and rotor speed to optimal modification factors is established via optimal control theory.The power curve can be periodically modified online through the mapping relationship.In this method,the update cycles for these power curve modification factors are shortened from tens of minutes to seconds.The simulations and experiments show that the proposed method is more efficient than others in terms of energy extraction under varying wind speeds,especially for turbulent wind cases.
