This paper discusses a Static Synchronous Series Compensator which is constructed with a 48-pulse inverter. Extensive simulation studies are carried out to verify the proper operation of the mentioned Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) device. In MATLAB simulation environment the designed device is connected to a power system that is comprised of three phase power source, transmission lin...

Drag coefficients of the downstream cylinder in a tandem arrangement of two models aligned with the flow are shown in this work. The models. which experienced vortex-induced vibrations with wake inteiference. had an external diameter of 16 mm and a total length of 1.5 m giving an aspect ratio of about 94. More than 400 runs were carried out in a water flume with only the lower 40% of the models...

In this paper a multi objective optimal power flow (OPF) is obtained by using BAT search algorithm (BAT) with Unified power flow controller (UPFC). UPFC is a voltage source converter type Flexible Alternating Current Transmission System (FACTS) device. It is able to control the voltage magnitudes, voltage angles and line impedances individually or simultaneously. UPFC along with BAT algorithm i...

Flexible stress sensor arrays, comprising multiple flexible units, enable accurate quantification and analysis of spatial distribution. Nevertheless, the current implementation arrays faces challenge excessive signal wires, resulting in reduced deformability, stability, reliability, increased costs. The primary obstacle lies electric amplitude modulation nature unit’s (e.g., resistance capacita...

In this paper we present our results on the performance analysis of a multi-product manufacturing line. We study the influence of external perturbations, intermediate buffer content and the number of manufacturing stages on the production tracking error of each machine in the multi-product line operated under a surplusbased production control policy. Starting by the analysis of a single machine...

The aim of this work is the development of an integrated Data Based Mechanistic (DBM) rainfall-flow/flow-routing model of the Upper River Narew catchment and the river reach between Bondary and Suraż suitable for scenario analysis. The modelling tool developed is formulated in MATLAB-SIMULINK language. It has a flexible, modular structure that can easily be extended by adding new features, such...
