A secondary voltage regulation approach for Hydro-Québec in transmission level
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
This paper presents a secondary voltage control that applies discrete controllers to regulate the voltage in the Hydro-Québec power network. Firstly, an artificial intelligence methodology is presented for partitioning the ...
Adaptive network coding for spectrum sharing systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we propose an adaptive network coding scheme for cognitive relay networks comprising multiple secondary sources communicating with a common destination in the presence of multiple primary users. Conventional ...
Understanding ethanol hydrogen abstraction mechanism on CuNi catalyst
(
AIChE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this work we report the synthesis of copper oxide nanoparticles using solution combustion synthesis. These nanopowders are used as catalyst in ethanol decomposition reaction for hydrogen production. In situ study of ...
A Bayesian approach for model identification of LPV systems with uncertain scheduling variables
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a Gaussian Process (GP) based Bayesian method that takes into account the effect of additive noise on the scheduling variables for identification of linear parameter-varying (LPV) models in input-output ...
Smart grid self-healing: Functions, applications, and developments
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Although the power system grid growth pace was slow, the load demand was not. Yet, there are some challenges that impeding the power grid to cope with the load pace, namely: renewable energy integration; energy efficiency; ...
Managing abnormal operation through process integration and cogeneration systems
(
Springer Verlag
, 2015 , Article)
Flaring is a common industrial practice that leads to substantial greenhouse gas emissions, health problems, and economic losses. When the causes, magnitudes, and frequency of flaring are properly understood and incorporated ...
A Droop Control Design for Multiterminal HVDC of Offshore Wind Farms With Three-Wire Bipolar Transmission Lines
(
IEEE
, 2015 , Article)
Converting existing ac transmission lines to an extended multiterminal three-wire bipolar HVDC system can be considered a cost-effective way to interconnect dispersed offshore wind farms to onshore ac grids instead of ...
Duplex Ni-P-ZrO2/Ni-P electroless coating on stainless steel
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2015 , Article)
Duplex Ni–P–ZrO2/Ni–P coating was electroless deposited onto stainless steel substrates. High phosphorus Ni–P coating was plated as the inner layer to improve the corrosion resistance and low phosphorus sol-enhanced Ni–P–ZrO2 ...
Engineering students' attitude towards engineering ethics education
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Engineering ethics covers the scope of engineering standards and how these standards should be applied in daily engineering practice Engineering ethics combines societal, economic and environmental factors in order to ...
Stochastic learning automata-based channel selection in cognitive radio/dynamic spectrum access for WiMAX networks
(
John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
, 2015 , Article)
This paper proposes a cognitive radio-based dynamic bandwidth allocation scheme for secondary users in a cluster-based WiMAX network. It uses a learning automata-based algorithm to find the optimal transmission channel, ...
