Exploring inherent damping characteristic of LCL-filters for three-phase grid-connected voltage source inverters by Tang, Yi, Loh, Poh Chiang, Wang, Peng, Choo, Fook Hoong, Gao, Feng

“…Theoretical analysis is then presented to suggest a general design guideline for choosing values of grid- and converter-side inductors, so that optimum damping can be naturally achieved by solely using converter current control, doing away with active damping, passive damping, or complex state observer. In cases where the design criterion is not fulfilled, the damping information contained in the converter current is extracted by a second-order notch filter, and then processed by a compensation gain to tune the system damping factor. …”

Clinical, Ethical, and Legal Considerations Raised by Self-Reported Genital Mutilation Following Voluntary Cosmetic Labiaplasty by Metaxas, T, Earp, BD, Bader, D, Ghasemi, S, Solari, M, Abdulcadir, J

“…We recommend counseling, history taking, screening for relevant conditions, and, if surgery is pursued, medical care by a specialist. We present the cases of three patients who reported feeling genitally mutilated after having willingly undergone FGCS. …”

Positive geometries and differential forms with non-logarithmic singularities. Part I by Benincasa, P, Parisi, M

“…Thus, it becomes crucial to understand whether a similar paradigm can underlie their structure in more general cases. In this paper we start a systematic investigation of a geometric-combinatorial characterisation of differential forms with non-logarithmic singularities, focusing on projective polytopes and related meromorphic forms with multiple poles. …”

Solidarity as a transformative practice by Cipollitti, PE

“…By studying existing theories and reflecting on real-world cases, I present a normative account of solidarity suited to confront the globalized, overlapping injustices we face in our world today. …”

Oxford/IIIT TRECVID 2008 – notebook paper by Philbin, J, Marin-Jimenez, M, Srinivasan, S, Zisserman, A, Jain, M, Vempati, S, Sankar, P, Jawahar, CV

“…We used a real-time face detector and an upper body detector, in both cases running on every frame. Our best performing submission, C_OXVGG_1_1, which used a rank fusion of our random forest and SVM approach, achieved an mAP of 0.101 and was above the median for all but one feature. …”

Safety outcomes following COVID-19 vaccination and infection in 5.1 million children in England by Copland, E, Patone, M, Saatci, D, Handunnetthi, L, Hirst, J, Hunt, DPJ, Mills, NL, Moss, P, Sheikh, A, Coupland, CAC, Harnden, A, Robertson, C, Hippisley-Cox, J

Experimentation in wicked situations: how activists construct pragmatic action frames by Savaget, P, Roulet, T, Ventresca, M

“…We address this gap by drawing on the concept of ‘action frames’ and deploying a comparative case study of nine cases in diverse contexts in which activists experimented with wicked problems. …”
