In the series-compensated grid-connected system (SCGCS), there is an impedance interaction between the inverter impedance and the grid impedance that is prone to cause resonance in the SCGCS. In this paper, firstly, considering the effects of the phase-locked loop (PLL), current-loop, and frequency coupling, the broadband impedance model of the SCGCS is established. The stability of the SCGCS is analyzed by the impedance-based Nyquist stability criterion. It is found from the stability analysis that the impedance interaction between the inverter impedance and the grid impedance is the leading cause of the resonance. An impedance reshaping based resonance suppression method is proposed to suppress the resonance. The phase characteristics of the inverter equivalent output impedance are reshaped from the perspective of impedance. The phase margin at the intersection frequency of the inverter impedance and the grid impedance is improved. The proposed resonance suppression approach mainly consists of reshaping the current loop impedance and the novel phase-locked loop impedance. Finally, simulations and experiments are used to verify the feasibility of the resonance analysis and the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.

In order to improve the phenomenon that a traditional phase-locked loop based on a double second-order generalized integrator (DSOGI-PLL) cannot track signal amplitude and phase accurately when the input signal contains DC components and high-order harmonics, the structure of a second-order generalized integrator-quadrature signals generator (SOGI-QSG) is modified. The paper establishes the impedance model considering the DSOGI-PLL structure of the inductor-capacitor-inductor-type (LCL-type) inverter grid-connected system adopting current control measured from the grid terminal in alternating current side, introducing voltage feedback control to enhance the stability of the system. Meanwhile, analyzing the influence of parameters on impedance according to the impedance model established preferable design parameters. The improvement in SOGI-QSG structure is good for PLL to lock the grid voltage phase more accurately and the retrofitting in control strategy based on the impedance is able to uplift the inverter output impedance phase which is conducive to system stability by increasing the phase margin of the system. The simulation in Matlab/Simulink is carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.

The traditional proportional feedforward control strategy can suppress the low order harmonics in the strong power grid, but in the weak power grid environment, the grid impedance will have an adverse impact on the stability of the system, resulting in the proportional feedforward control can not suppress the low order harmonics well. In order to solve this problem, a control strategy combining resonant feedforward and new repetitive proportional controller is proposed. Firstly, the stability of traditional proportional feedforward and resonant feedforward systems is analyzed and compared by impedance analysis method. Then, a new repetitive controller is added to suppress low order harmonics based on resonant feedforward control, and the stability of single-phase LCL grid connected inverter system is analyzed Matlab / Simulink is used to simulate and verify the system. The results show that the system stability and the ability to suppress low order harmonics are significantly improved.

With the higher penetration of renewable energy, the influence of grid equivalent distribution cable impedance on grid-connected inverter stability is attracting increasing attention. In order to suppress the interaction between grid distribution cable impedance and output impedance of the grid-connected system, the active damping strategy is often used. When a capacitive current loop is used, the damping coefficient increases with the grid impedance increasing. However, the excessive damping coefficient will cause the unstable operation of the system. In order to enhance the robustness of the system, a novel control strategy which is suitable for wide-range grid impedance variation is proposed. In this strategy, the capacitor current inner loop is combined with the grid current inner loop, and grid voltage feedforward is included. Since the virtual impedance, active damping and voltage feed-forward are normalized, the changing tendency of the damping coefficient of the grid-current inner loop is opposite to that of capacitor current inner-loop. The overall damping coefficient of the system remains relatively constant when the grid impedance changes, and this effectively suppresses the resonance of the system. In this paper, the method is analyzed and the parameters are designed and optimized. Finally, the simulation and experiment are presented to verify the analysis.

: Skin cancer, among the various kinds of cancers, is a type that emerges from skin due to the growth of abnormal cells. These cells are capable of spreading and invading the other parts of the body. The occurrence of non-melanoma and melanoma, which are the major types of skin cancers, has increased over the past decades. Exposure to ultraviolet radiations (UV) is the main associative cause of skin cancer. UV exposure can inactivate tumor suppressor genes while activating various oncogenes. The conventional techniques like surgical removal, chemotherapy and radiation therapy lack the potential for targeting cancer cells and harm the normal cells. However, the novel therapeutics show promising improvements in the effectiveness of treatment, survival rates and better quality of life for patients. Different methodologies are involved in the skin cancer therapeutics for delivering the active ingredients to the target sites. Nano carriers are very efficient as they have the ability to improve the stability of drugs and further enhance their penetration into the tumor cells. The recent developments and research in nanotechnology have entitled several targeting and therapeutic agents to be incorporated into nanoparticles for an enhancive treatment of skin cancer. To protect the research works in the field of nanolipoidal systems various patents have been introduced. Some of the patents acknowledge responsive liposomes for specific targeting, nanocarriers for the delivery or co-delivery of chemotherapeutics, nucleic acids as well as photosensitizers. Further recent patents on the novel delivery systems have also been included here.

Abstract Recently, transformable Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have become a subject of great interest in the field of flying systems, due to their maneuverability, agility and morphological capacities. They can be used for specific missions and in more congested spaces. Moreover, this novel class of UAVs is considered as a viable solution for providing flying robots with specific and versatile functionalities. In this paper, we propose (i) a new design of a transformable quadrotor with (ii) generic modeling and (iii) adaptive control strategy. The proposed UAV is able to change its flight configuration by rotating its four arms independently around a central body, thanks to its adaptive geometry. To simplify and lighten the prototype, a simple mechanism with a light mechanical structure is proposed. Since the Center of Gravity (CoG) of the UAV moves according to the desired morphology of the system, a variation of the inertia and the allocation matrix occurs instantly. These dynamics parameters play an important role in the system control and its stability, representing a key difference compared with the classic quadrotor. Thus, a new generic model is developed, taking into account all these variations together with aerodynamic effects. To validate this model and ensure the stability of the designed UAV, an adaptive backstepping control strategy based on the change in the flight configuration is applied. MATLAB simulations are provided to evaluate and illustrate the performance and efficiency of the proposed controller. Finally, some experimental tests are presented.

This article presents a control strategy that enables both islanded and grid-tied operations of a three-phase inverter in distributed generation. This distributed generation (DG) is based on a dramatically evolved direct current (DC) source. A unified control strategy is introduced to operate the interface in either the isolated or grid-connected modes. The proposed control system is based on the instantaneous tracking of the active power flow in order to achieve current control in the grid-connected mode and retain the stability of the frequency using phase-locked loop (PLL) circuits at the point of common coupling (PCC), in addition to managing the reactive power supplied to the grid. On the other side, the proposed control system is also based on the instantaneous tracking of the voltage to achieve the voltage control in the standalone mode and retain the stability of the frequency by using another circuit including a special equation (wt = 2πft, f = 50 Hz). This utilization provides the ability to obtain voltage stability across the critical load. One benefit of the proposed control strategy is that the design of the controller remains unconverted for other operating conditions. The simulation results are added to evaluate the performance of the proposed control technology using a different method; the first method used basic proportional integration (PI) controllers, and the second method used adaptive proportional integration (PI) controllers, i.e., an Artificial Neural Network (ANN).

This paper concentrates on a robust resonant control strategy of a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) for electric drivers with model uncertainties and external disturbances to improve the control performance of the current loop. Firstly, to reduce the torque ripple of PMSM, the resonant controller with fractional order (FO) calculus is introduced. Then, a robust two degrees-of-freedom (Robust-TDOF) control strategy was designed based on the modified resonant controller. Finally, by combining the two control methods, this study proposes an enhanced Robust-TDOF regulation method, named as the robust two degrees-of-freedom resonant controller (Robust-TDOFR), to guarantee the robustness of model uncertainty and to further improve the performance with minimized periodic torque ripples. Meanwhile, a tuning method was constructed followed by stability and robust stability analysis. Furthermore, the proposed Robust-TDOFR control method was applied in the current loop of a PMSM to suppress the periodic current harmonics caused by non-ideal factors of inverter and current measurement errors. Finally, simulations and experiments were performed to validate our control strategy. The simulation and experimental results showed that the THDs (total harmonic distortion) of phase current decreased to a level of 0.69% and 5.79% in the two testing environments.

Numerical simulations reveal that a single-stage differential boost AC module supplied from a PV module under an Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) control at the input DC port and with current synchronization at the AC grid port might exhibit bifurcation phenomena under some weather conditions leading to subharmonic oscillation at the fast-switching scale. This paper will use discrete-time approach to characterize such behavior and to identify the onset of fast-scale instability. Slope compensation is used in the inner current loop to improve the stability of the system. The compensation slope values needed to guarantee stability for the full range of operating duty cycle and leading to an optimal deadbeat response are determined. The validity of the followed procedures is finally validated by a numerical simulations performed on a detailed circuit-level switched model of the AC module.
