Power quality and low voltage ride-through capability of induction generator-based wind power generating system by Wei, Feng

“…However, smaller power rating of the converters also means that the DFIG system has a smaller tolerance to voltage disturbances. When an external fault occurs, the DFIG is required to keep connected to the grid and generate reactive power. …”

Topography-incorporated adjoint-state surface wave Traveltime tomography: method and a case study in Hawaii by Hao, Shijie, Chen, Jing, Xu, Mijian, Tong, Ping

“…Our results reveal features that are consistent with geological structures and previous tomography results, including high velocities below Mauna Loa Volcano and Kilauea Volcano, and low velocities beneath the Hilina Fault Zone. Additionally, our model reveals a high-velocity anomaly to the South of Hualalai's summit, which may be related to a buried rift zone. …”

Field relations, petrogenesis and emplacement of the Bhagirathi leucogranite, Garhwal Himalaya by Searle, M, Metcalfe, RP, Rex, AJ, Norry, MJ

“…Various shear criteria in the gneisses immediately below the granite document the existence of a major zone of ductile NNE-SSW-directed extension across a northeastward dipping, low-angle normal fault zone. The top of the 1500–1800 m thick leucogranite sheet exposed on the peaks of Bhagirathi, Shivling and Thalay Sagar are intrusive into Martoli Formation metasediments of the Tethyan sequence which locally contain andalusite and staurolite. …”

Seismic attenuation tomography from 2018 Lombok earthquakes, Indonesia by Priyono, Awali, Nugraha, Andri Dian, Muzli, Muzli, Ardianto, Ardianto, Atin Nur Aulia, Prabowo, Billy Sugiartono, Zulfakriza, Zulfakriza, Shindy Rosalia, Sasmi, Annisa T., Afif, Haunan, Sahara, David P., Widiyantoro, Sri, Wei, Shengji, Husni, Yayan M., Sarjan, Achmad Fajar Narotama

“…A low P-wave quality factor (low-Qp), low P-wave velocity (Vp), and high ratio of P-wave velocity and S-wave velocity (Vp/Vs), which coincide with a shallower earthquake (<20 km) northwest of Lombok Island, might be associated with a brittle area of basal and imbricated faults influenced by high fluid content. At the same time, the high-Qp, low Vp, and low Vp/Vs, which coincide with a deeper earthquake (>20 km) northeast of Lombok Island, might be associated with an area that lacks fluid content. …”

Comparative spatial predictions of the locations of soil-rock interface by Qi, Xiaohui, Pan, Xiaohua, Chiam, Kiefer, Lim, Yong Siang, Lau, Sze Ghiong

“…The spatial trend of the geological interface cannot be captured by the polynomial regression method with a relatively high (i.e., 10) order of the polynomial when faults and folds exist. Advantages of the spline regression method over the conditional random field methods include that (i) it provides a clear and explicit spatial trend of the SRI, which well reflects the geological complexity of the sites; (ii) it avoids the cumbersome estimation of random field parametric values, which is a challenging task under the condition of limited data; and (iii) it can differentiate the zones with different prediction accuracies, which cannot be accomplished by the conditional random field method due to limited data. …”

Fabrication and properties of oxide semiconductor nanowires by Shen, Youde

“…At last, we report the growth of kinked single-crystalline In2O3 nanostructures consisting of nanocone base and nanowire tip connected without any twin boundaries or stacking faults. During the tailored growth, when the diameter of gold catalyst nanoparticle at the apex of the nanocone shrunk to ~100 nm as a result of the gold atom migration, the growth direction switched from [111] to either [110] or [112], depending on the growth conditions. …”

Health monitoring, lifetimes estimation, and thermal management of IGBT-based power converters by Mohamed Halick Mohamed Sathik

“…This methodology protects a power devices from over current and short circuit current, and isolates the fault current from the rest of the system. The proposed short-circuit detection and protection circuit is compared with conventional gate-voltage clamping method, and results show that the proposed method aids in the soft shutdown of the IGBT, and considerably reduces the fault current and power dissipations compared to the conventional method.…”
