Step Distance

Most existing wall-climbing robots have a fixed range of load capacity and a step distance that is small and mostly immutable. It is therefore difficult for them to adapt to a discontinuous wall with particularly large gaps. Based on a modular design and inspired by leech peristalsis and internal soft-bone connection, a bionic crawling modular wall-climbing robot is proposed in this paper. The robot demonstrates the ability to handle variable load characteristics by carrying different numbers of modules. Multiple motion modules are coupled with the internal soft bone so that they work together, giving the robot variable-step-distance functionality. This paper establishes the robotic kinematics model, presents the finite element simulation analysis of the model, and introduces the design of the multi-module cooperative-motion method. Our experiments show that the advantage of variable step distance allows the robot not only to quickly climb and turn on walls, but also to cross discontinuous walls. The maximum climbing step distance of the robot can reach 3.6 times the length of the module and can span a discontinuous wall with a space of 150 mm; the load capacity increases with the number of modules in series. The maximum load that modules can carry is about 1.3 times the self-weight.

Partial shading on solar photovoltaic (PV) arrays is a prevalent problem in photovoltaic systems that impair the performance of PV modules and is responsible for reduced power output as compared to that in standard irradiance conditions thereby resulting in the appearance of multiple maximas on panel output power characteristics. These maxims contribute to mismatch power losses among PV modules. The mismatch losses depend on shading characteristics together with different interconnected configuration schemes of PV modules. The research presents a comparative analysis of partial shading effects on a 4 x4 PV array system connected in series(S), parallel (P), serries-parallel (SP),total-cross-tied (TCT),central-cross-tied(CCT),bridge-linked(BL),bridge-linked total cross-tied (BLTCT) ,honey-comb(HC), honey-comb total-cross-tied (HCTCT) and ladder (LD) configurations using MATLAB/Simulink. The PV module SPR-X20-250-BLK was used for modeling and simulation analysis. Each module is comprised of 72 number of PV cells and a combination of 16 PV modules was employed for the contextual analysis. Accurate mathematical modeling for the HCTCT configuration under partial shading conditions (PSCs) is provided for the first time and is verified from the simulation. The different configuration schemes were investigated under short-narrow,short-wide,long-narrow,long-wide, diagonal, entire row distribution, and entire column distribution partial shading condition patterns with mathematical implementation and simulation of passing clouds. The performance of array configurations is compared in terms of maximum power generated ), mismatch power loss (∆), relative power loss ) and the fill factor (FF). It was inferred that on average, TCT configuration yielded maximum power generation under all shading patterns among all PV modules interconnection configurations with minimum mismatch power losses followed by hybrid and conventional PV array configurations respectively.

Plastic Creep

When the stress of concrete dam joints during the whole construction process is simulated with the elastic creep model, the simulated result will be larger than the real value if the elastic modulus of the joints take the minimum value and the plastic yield and cracking of joints are not considered; while problems like iterative convergence will appear if the contact element or thin-layer element is applied to the analysis. In consideration of the above factors, an elastic-plastic model, obtained by connecting one or two Bingham elements in series in the conventional model, was carried out for the stress simulation analysis of concrete joints based on the visco-elastic-plastic theory. From the discussion of the feasibility of setting up longitudinal joints in the bottom hole dam section, it is concluded that the concrete joints can be simulated by elastic-plastic creep model presented in this paper, for this method can fairly reflect the deformation stress condition of the concrete joints; in addition, it neither increases the complexity of program development, nor is related to iterative convergence.

Transient Overvoltage

The CVT equipment running on site is slightly modified to form a hybrid CVT to achieve transient overvoltage measurement, which is theoretically feasible and practical. In order to study the voltage division method based on the hybrid CVT to measure the overvoltage of the power system, that is, the low voltage capacitor C3 is connected in series between the low voltage terminal of the medium voltage capacitor C2 of the traditional CVT and the ground, and the transient overvoltage measurement is realized through C3. This article uses ATP-EMTP to establish its high-frequency transient model for simulation analysis. For further verification, a power frequency voltage test and an impulse voltage test were carried out on the 110kV hybrid CVT produced by Taikai Transformer Factory, focusing on the analysis of the partial voltage characteristics of the capacitor C3. The simulation results show that the C3 partial pressure method can achieve a relatively accurate measurement of the transient overvoltage. The test results show that the voltage across C3 is affected by uncertain factors and has an impact phenomenon. The above analysis process and results have certain practical value for designing actual products.

This essay is about the application of a diode-capacitor network on conventional non-isolated DC–DC converter. The study will focus on obtaining high step-up voltage gain, low switch voltage stress, simple control, and high conversion efficiency. Three single-switch step-up converters with high step-up ratio based on the diode-capacitor network are proposed. The principle of operation and theoretical analysis of every single-switch step-up converter is evaluated for both continuous and discontinuous conduction modes. Given the mirror-symmetrical characteristic of the diode-capacitor network, cascade single-switch step-up converters based on the single-switch positive-output step-up converter are achieved when several diode-capacitor networks are arranged in series. Simulation analysis and experimental results obtained from the implemented prototypes operating at 40 kHz are provided to verify the performances of the proposed step-up converters.

Purpose Tracheostomy patients face many adversities including loss of phonation and essential airway functions including air filtering, warming, and humidification. Heat and moisture exchangers (HMEs) facilitate humidification and filtering of inspired air. The Shikani HME (S-HME) is a novel turbulent airflow HME that may be used in-line with the Shikani Speaking Valve (SSV), allowing for uniquely preserved phonation during humidification. The aims of this study were to (a) compare the airflow resistance ( R airflow ) and humidification efficiency of the S-HME and the Mallinckrodt Tracheolife II tracheostomy HME (M-HME) when dry (time zero) and wet (after 24 hr) and (b) determine if in-line application of the S-HME with a tracheostomy speaking valve significantly increases R airflow over a tracheostomy speaking valve alone (whether SSV or Passy Muir Valve [PMV]). Method A prospective observational ex vivo study was conducted using a pneumotachometer lung simulation unit to measure airflow ( Q ) amplitude and R airflow , as indicated by a pressure drop ( P Drop ) across the device (S-HME, M-HME, SSV + S-HME, and PMV). Additionally, P Drop was studied for the S-HME and M-HME when dry at time zero (T 0 ) and after 24 hr of moisture testing (T 24 ) at Q of 0.5, 1, and 1.5 L/s. Results R airflow was significantly less for the S-HME than M-HME (T 0 and T 24 ). R airflow of the SSV + S-HME in series did not significant increase R airflow over the SSV or PMV alone. Moisture loss efficiency trended toward greater efficiency for the S-HME; however, the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusions The turbulent flow S-HME provides heat and moisture exchange with similar or greater efficacy than the widely used laminar airflow M-HME, but with significantly lower resistance. The S-HME also allows the innovative advantage of in-line use with the SSV, hence allowing concurrent humidification and phonation during application, without having to manipulate either device.
