Intelligent database design for microgrids in low voltage distribution systems-I GUI and database design by Ng, Pei Fen

“…Climatic change can lead to consequences such as increasing cases of heat-related illness, endangering wildlife like polar bears and rising of sea level that would trigger natural disasters leading to individual losing their homes. [51] Due to extensively use of electricity in this contemporary society, there arises a need to seek for alternative energy sources, if at all possible renewable resources such as wind and solar. …”

A high‐resolution AUV navigation framework with integrated communication and tracking for under‐ice deployments by Randeni, Supun, Schneider, Toby, Bhatt, EeShan C., Víquez, Oscar A., Schmidt, Henrik

“…To decouple the contributions from the HydroMAN and ICNN subsystems towards a stable navigation solution, this article evaluates them separately: (1) HydroMAN was compared against DVL bottom‐track aided INS during pre‐ICEX20 engineering trials where both systems provided similar accuracy; (2) ICNN was evaluated by conducting a static experiment in the Arctic where the ICNN navigation updates were compared against GPS with ICNN error within low tens of meters. The joint HydroMAN‐ICNN framework was tested during ICEX20, which provided a nondiverging high‐resolution navigation solution—with the majority of error below 15 m—that facilitated a successful AUV recovery through a small ice hole after an 11 km untethered run in the upper and mid‐water column.…”
