A grounding grid plays the role of discharging current and balancing voltage to ensure the safety of the power system. However, soil corrosion can damage the grounding grid, which then can endanger the safe operation of power system. This paper reviewed recent research advances of soil corrosion of grounding grid. The cause, mechanism, types, and influencing factors of soil corrosion of grounding grids were summarized, and the corresponding detection technology and protective measures were also introduced. The paper pointed out that soil corrosion is a serious threat to the grounding grid system. Moreover, the impact mechanism of AC stray current, new corrosion detection technology, and better protective measures still need in-depth research.

With the proportion of the installed capacity of wind farm in the grid increasing, the impact of wind farm on the power system security becomes obvious. The steady-state security analysis is one of the important measures to improve the power system security. Based on DC flow, considering the available transmission capability limit, the paper chooses the biggest security region volume as objective function with the upper and lower limits of security region multi-dimensional cuboid being as control variables, which transforms the maximum steady-state security region into nonlinear programming problem with linear constraints. This not only includes the biggest points for the safe operation, but also the order expansion problem doesn’t exist. Then Lagrange-Quasi-Newton is used to solve the equation, and the analysis of the example proves the feasibility of the proposed model and algorithm. Then we assume that wind speed distribution is weibull distribution, so we can assess the safe operation probability of wind power.

Soil corrosion is the main reason of corrosion failure for substation grounding grids. To explore electrochemical evaluation method for soil corrosion of substation grounding grids would effectively ensure the safe operation of power grids. This paper discussed the main several kinds of soil corrosive electrochemical research methods and application. These methods played an important role on researching soil corrosion mechanism, soil corrosivity and corrosion behavior.

AC stray current can cause AC corrosion and destroy the safe operation of buried pipelines, which comes mainly from nearby high voltage transmission lines and AC electric railway. The research and evaluation lags far behind DC stray current at home and abroad, besides, the AC current density measuring procedures are complex. Through experimental study of different parameters on the impact of the AC current density established a mathematical model of damaged area, soil resistivity, pipe-to-soil potential and coating resistivity. With it can indirectly get the AC current density, which improve efficiency by simplifying the measuring procedures. Also, provide a basis for harmfulness evaluation of AC stray current by studying the impact of AC current density on the corrosion rate.

Grounding grid is an important device which ensures the safe operation of substation. Its corrosion is influenced by various factors and the influence of these factors is varied. It is difficult to infer the relationship between the corrosion rate and its influencing factors, so this paper apply the grey clustering method of grey system theory in the grounding grid corrosion and gives an application instance and realizes it by MATLAB. The results demonstrate the practicality and effectiveness of the method mentioned in this paper. This method can provide reference for high reliability for related departments in the implementation of emergency situation due to grounding grid corrosion.

One of the features of the post-Fukushima development of nuclear technologies in terms of the impact of the human factor on safety is the analysis of the national context in the safety culture. The starting point for this thesis is the transboundary nature of the nuclear power safety problem, which, in turn, depends on the ability of people to act together at the national and international levels. Thus, exploring how the national context influences decision-making and the performance of production objectives, and a better understanding of national cultural characteristics, is an important topic to be developed in this article.

Today, there is an acute issue of ensuring the safe operation of buildings and structures located in the immediate vicinity of new construction. The process of performing works on the installation of load-bearing structures and their further operation can have a negative impact on already existing facilities. In this regard, the task of developing innovative methods and tools to ensure the safe operation of such structures as subway running tunnels is very urgent. To solve it, a reliable forecast of additional deformation and appointment of a complex of protective measures are required.  In addition, much attention should be paid to the numerical modeling of the system “surface structures – protective measures – underground structures”. As an example of assessing the impact of new construction, namely, the erection of surface structures over existing underground  ones, one  can  cite  the  construction  of  a transport  interchange  at  the  intersection  of  Nezavisimosty  Avenue with Filimonov Street. As protective measures, a protective screen on bored piles has been used here, which made it possible to minimize significantly dynamic and static effects on the lining of tunnels and other underground structures of the subway. Effectiveness of protection application is confirmed by the result of monitoring the stress-strain state of running tunnel structures at all stages of traffic  intersection construction. Protective measures and continuous monitoring of the stress-strain state in structures help to avoid accidents during construction and further operation.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the effects of Cl− and direct stray current on the soil corrosion of three grounding grid materials. Design/methodology/approach The electrochemical corrosion properties of three grounding grid materials, which include the Q235 steel, Q235 galvanized flat steel and copper, were measured by means of the weak polarization curve method and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy; the corrosion rate of specimens was calculated using the weight loss method; and the specimen surfaces were characterized using the scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. Findings Results showed that both factors, Cl− and direct stray current, can accelerate the corrosion rate of grounding grid materials. The magnitude of DC stray current density affected the mass transfer type and response frequency of the anode and cathode reaction of grounding materials, while the Cl− contents of the soil only affect the mass transfer rate of the electrode material from the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy diagrams. The electric field generated by the DC stray current caused Cl− directed migration. The larger the DC stray current density, the greater the diffusion process and the greater the weight loss rate of the grounding grid materials that would have a logarithmic relationship with the Cl− content at the same DC stray current density. The corrosion resistance of the three materials is copper > Q235 galvanized flat steel > Q235 flat steel. Originality/value The paper provides information regarding the relationship among Cl−, direct stray current and corrosion of three grounding grid materials by means of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Meanwhile the weight loss rate is the logarithmic relationship with the Cl− content, which is useful for understanding the corrosion mechanism of Q235 steel, Q235 galvanized flat steel and copper under the condition of Cl− and direct stray current in soil.

Two studies examined the impact of macrolevel symbolic threat on intergroup attitudes. In Study 1 (N = 71), participants exposed to a macrosymbolic threat (vs. nonsymbolic threat and neutral topic) reported less support toward social policies concerning gay men, an outgroup whose stereotypes implies a threat to values, but not toward welfare recipients, a social group whose stereotypes do not imply a threat to values. Study 2 (N = 78) showed that, whereas macrolevel symbolic threat led to less favorable attitudes toward gay men, macroeconomic threat led to less favorable attitudes toward Asians, an outgroup whose stereotypes imply an economic threat. These findings are discussed in terms of their implications for understanding the role of a general climate of threat in shaping intergroup attitudes.
