The influence of voltage and current harmonics on equipment connected to electrical supply systems can cause serious problems. This paper presents a synopsis of the problem. The equipment most sensitive to harmonics is considered, such as -asynchronous motors, synchronous machines, transformers, capacitors, ripple control receivers, electricity meters, radio receivers, TV-sets, electronic contr...

In order to improve the validity of electronic equipment condition monitoring, overcome the shortage of normal KPCA (Kernel Principal Component Analysis) and SVDD (Support Vector Data Description) monitoring model, a method on electronic equipment condition monitoring based on KPCAEDA (KPCAEstimation of Distribution Algorithm) and MMSH-SVDD (Maximal Margin Separating Hypersphere SVDD Mode) is p...

Waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) has been one of the fastest growing waste streams worldwide. Effective and efficient management and treatment of WEEE has become a global problem. As one of the world's largest electronic products manufacturing and consumption countries, China plays a key role in the material life cycle of electrical and electronic equipment. Over the past 20 yea...

As our society makes the transition into the digital age, electronics manufacturers are constantly pushing newer and better electronic equipment onto the market to satisfy customer demands for newer technology. Yet when this new stream of products makes its way into homes, older electronic equipment will, as a consequence, be discarded. Currently, several manufacturers have begun to initiate pr...

Corrosion-induced failures remain frequent in electronics products used in industrial environments. The International Society for Automation (ISA) Standard 71.04-1985 provides a classification system using corrosion (or reactivity) monitoring to determine the corrosive potential of an environment towards electronic equipment. Changes to electronic equipment mandated by the European Union direct...

OBJECTIVE To describe the association between electronic devices in the bedroom with sedentary time and physical activity, both assessed by accelerometry, in addition to body mass index in children from São Caetano do Sul. METHODS The sample consisted of 441 children. The presence of electronic equipment (television, personal computer, and videogames) in the bedroom was assessed by a question...
