Nowadays, modern power converters installed in renewable power plants can provide flexible electromechanical characteristics that rely on the developed control technologies such as Synchronous Power Controller (SPC). Since high renewable penetrated power grids result in a low-inertia system, this electromechanical characteristic provides support to the dynamic stability of active power and frequency in the power generation area. This goal can be achieved through the proper tuning of virtual electromechanical parameters that are embedded in the control layers of power converters. In this paper, a novel mathematical pattern and strategy have been proposed to adjust dynamic parameters in Renewable Static Synchronous Generators controlled by SPC (RSSG-SPC). A detailed dynamic modeling was obtained for a feasible design of virtual damping coefficient and virtual moment of inertia in the electrometrical control layer of RSSG-SPC’s power converters. Mathematical solutions, modal analysis outcomes, time-domain simulation results, and real-time validations of the test in IEEE-14B benchmark confirm that the proposed method is an effective procedure for the dynamic design of RSSG-SPC to provide these dynamic stability supports in grid connection.

To reduce the adverse effect of the functional insufficiency of the steering system on the accuracy of path tracking, a path tracking approach considering safety of the intended functionality is proposed by coordinating automatic steering and differential braking in this paper. The proposed method adopts a hierarchical architecture consisting of a coordinated control layer and an execution control layer. In coordinated control layer, an extension controller considering functional insufficiency of the steering system, tire force characteristics and vehicle driving stability is proposed to determine the weight coefficients of automatic steering and the differential braking, and a model predictive controller is designed to calculate the desired front wheel angle and additional yaw moment. In execution control layer, a H∞ steering angle controller considering external disturbances and parameter uncertainty is designed to track desired front wheel angle, and a braking force distribution module is used to determine the wheel cylinder pressure of the controlled wheels. Both simulation and experiment results show that the proposed method can overcome the functional insufficiency of the steering system and improve the accuracy of path tracking while maintaining the stability of the autonomous vehicle.

This paper presents a new reinforced concrete (RC) composite slab system by applying an extruded Ductile Fiber Reinforced Cement Composite (DFRCC) panel. In the proposed composite slab system, the DFRCC panel, which has ribs to allow for complete composite action, is manufactured by extrusion process; then, the longitudinal and transverse reinforcements, both at the bottom and the top, are placed, and finally the topping concrete is placed. In order to investigate the flexural behavior of the proposed composite slab system, a series of bending tests was performed. From the test results, it was found that the extruded DFRCC panel has good deformation-hardening behavior under flexural loading conditions and that the developed composite slab system, applied with an extruded DFRCC panel, exhibits higher flexural performance compared to conventional RC slab system in terms of the stiffness, load-bearing capacity, ductility, and cracking control.

With the increase of new energy power generation, the requirement of smart grid and the popularity of electric vehicles, the research focus on V2G. With Electric vehicles being distributed energy storage or distributed generation, peak regulation in power system is involved in important functions of V2G. In order to achieve peak regulation function, the paper has analyzed the control relationship between the electric vehicles, V2G station and electric vehicle charge\ discharge control center, presented charge and discharge control strategy based on the two levels of electric vehicle charge\discharging control center and V2G station control layer and introduced algorithms and examples to achieve these strategies.

By analyzing the key safety problems under the front-outside-tire burst steering condition, a vehicle stability control strategy is proposed in this paper, which is based on active front steering and differential braking systems. Taken both the handling stability and safety into account, we divided the whole control strategy into two layers, which are yaw moment control layer and the additional steering angle & tire force distribution layer. To solve the similar linear problem concisely, the LQR control is adopted in the yaw moment control layer. To achieve the goal of providing enough additional lateral force and yaw moment while keeping the burst tire in appropriate condition, the additional steering angle provided by active front steering system and the tire force distribution was adjusted step by step. To test the proposed control strategy performance, we modelling a basic front-outside-tire burst steering condition, in which the tire blows out once the vertical pressure reach the predefined critical value. Through simulation on different adhesion coefficient road, the control strategy proposed in this paper performance quite better compare with the uncontrolled one in aspect of movement, burst tire protection, handling stability.
