This paper proposes a novel method for the analysis of photovoltaic system under unreliable condition. The photovoltaic system is the combination of large number of PV cells connected in series. The photovoltaic system plays a great role in reducing the global warming and maintaining the ecological balance by promoting to the green environment. The photovoltaic system replaces the conventional method of generating electricity to the non-conventional method of generating electricity. This paper focus on distinguishing the performance of photovoltaic system under uniform condition and non-uniform unreliable condition through the solar GIS tool.

The dynamic behavior of a rolling element bearing under auxiliary operation in rotor/magnetic bearing systems is analyzed. When contact with the rotor occurs, the inner race experiences high impact forces and rapid angular acceleration. A finite element model is used to account for flexibility of the inner race in series with non-linear ball stiffnesses arising from the ball-race contact zones. The dynamic conditions during rotor/inner race contact, including ball/race creep, are deduced from a non-linear matrix equation. The influences of bearing parameters are considered together with implications for energy dissipation in the bearing.

Bearing performance degradation assessment is meaningful for keeping mechanical reliability and safety. For this purpose, a novel method based on kernel locality preserving projection is proposed in this article. Kernel locality preserving projection extends the traditional locality preserving projection into the non-linear form by using a kernel function and it is more appropriate to explore the non-linear information hidden in the data sets. Considering this point, the kernel locality preserving projection is used to generate a non-linear subspace from the normal bearing data. The test data are then projected onto the subspace to obtain an index for assessing bearing degradation degrees. The degradation index that is expressed in the form of inner product indicates similarity of the normal data and the test data. Validations by using monitoring data from two experiments show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

ABSTRACTIn this paper, a Gaussian process regression (GPR)-based novel method is proposed for non-linear aerodynamic modelling of the aircraft using flight data. This data-driven regression approach uses the kernel-based probabilistic model to predict the non-linearity. The efficacy of this method is examined and validated by estimating force and moment coefficients using research aircraft flight data. Estimated coefficients of aerodynamic force and moment using GPR method are compared with the estimated coefficients using maximum-likelihood estimation (MLE) method. Estimated coefficients from the GPR method are statistically analysed and found to be at par with estimated coefficients from MLE, which is popularly used as a conventional method. GPR approach does not require to solve the complex equations of motion. GPR further can be directed for the generalised applications in the area of aeroelasticity, load estimation, and optimisation.

An aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA) can be overlooked by the conventional method as described by Chaoui et al., due to acoustic shadowing. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of a novel screening method for ARSA by demonstrating the brachiocephalic artery bifurcation, referred to as the “No ARSA” sign. A prospective study conducted at a tertiary care center between 2018 and 2019 included unselected pregnant patients at a median gestational age of 15.1 (14.2–22.1; IQR (inter-quartile range)) weeks, who had been referred for a routine or targeted anomaly scan. All participants were scanned for the presence or absence of ARSA using both the conventional and the novel “No ARSA” methods for validation purposes. A total of 226 unselected patients were enrolled in the study. The “No ARSA” sign was visualized in 218 fetuses (96.5%). In the remaining 8 cases (3.5%), the “No ARSA” sign was not demonstrated. In these fetuses, an ARSA was visualized by the conventional method. The new method exhibited 100% feasibility and was in complete agreement with the conventional method. Intra- and inter-observer agreement was excellent (κ = 1). The results of the study suggest that the “No ARSA” sign is an efficient and reliable screening tool for ARSA.

The continuous uninterrupted supply of Natural Gas (NG) is crucial to today’s economy, with issues in key infrastructure, e.g., Baumgarten hub in Austria in 2017, highlighting the importance of the NG infrastructure for the supply of primary energy. The balancing of gas supply from a wide range of sources with various end users can be challenging due to the unique and different behaviours of the end users, which in some cases span across a continent. Further complicating the management of the NG network is its role in supporting the electrical network. The fast response times of NG power plants and the potential to store energy in the network play a key role in adding flexibility across other energy systems. Traditionally, modelling the NG network relies on nonlinear pipe flow equations that incorporate the demand (load), flow rate, and physical network parameters including topography and NG properties. It is crucial that the simulations produce accurate results quickly. This paper seeks to provide a novel method to solve gas flow equations through a network under steady-state conditions. Firstly, the model is reformulated into non-linear matrix equations, then the equations separated into their linear and nonlinear components, and thirdly, the non-linear system is solved approximately by providing a linear system with similar solutions to the non-linear one. The non-linear equations of the NG transport system include the main variables and characteristics of a gas network, focusing on pressure drop in the gas network. Two simplified models, both of the Irish gas network (1. A gas network with 13 nodes, 2. A gas network with 109 nodes) are used as a case study for comparison of the solutions. Results are generated by using the novel method, and they are compared to the outputs of two numerical methods, the Newton–Raphson solution using MATLAB and SAINT, a commercial software that is used for the simulation of the gas network and electrical grids.
