In the process of detecting and calibrating for power equipments, it appears a phenomenon that standard equipment is damaged by harmful random large current from tested equipment. This danger signal mainly occurs in the transient state of tested equipment, i.e., in a short time after starting to output new set current. This paper proposes a method for protecting standard equipment to eliminate damage caused by random large current. Its content mainly describes one of the key parts of this scheme including accurately sampling and transient signal removing intelligently in details. Design the related current sampling circuit, test results show that the resolution of circuit can reach to 10mA, which satisfies the work well.

Abstract The islanding detection is a major problem for both AC and DC Microgrids. Failure to do so may result in problems such as system instability, increased non-detection zone, out-of-phase reclosing, personnel safety, and power quality deterioration. To address this issue, this paper presents a reliable island identification method for DC Microgrids that employs a Cumulative Sum of Rate of change of Voltage (CSROCOV) to reduce the non-recognition region. The proposed islanding protection scheme employs point of common coupling (PCC) transient signal to detect islands events. The voltage, power, and current sampling are accumulated from the PCC of the distributed generation terminals. The proposed scheme detects islanding in three test cases with varying power mismatching conditions, while non-islanding events are classified as capacitor switching and faults. The system is modelled and simulated in the MATLAB/Simulink environment, then islanding conditions are applied by turning off the main circuit breaker. Simulation results are presented to verify the methodology under different test cases. The robustness of the proposed scheme is also validated against measurement noise.

Fault detection in microgrids presents a strong technical challenge due to the dynamic operating conditions. Changing the power generation and load impacts the current magnitude and direction, which has an adverse effect on the microgrid protection scheme. To address this problem, this paper addresses a field-transform-based fault detection method immune to the microgrid conditions. The faults are simulated via a Matlab/Simulink model of the grid-connected photovoltaics-based DC microgrid with battery energy storage. Short-time Fourier transform is applied to the fault time signal to obtain a frequency spectrum. Selected spectrum features are then provided to a number of intelligent classifiers. The classifiers’ scores were evaluated using the F1-score metric. Most classifiers proved to be reliable as their performance score was above 90%.

The Hungarian society and the Hungarian state are constantly increasing their solar capacity. More and more solar power plants are being put into operation. The largest of these has a 100 MW peak capacity. Such power plants do not require constant maintenance. However, in the case of low productivity, a conditional assessment is required. The reason for production loss can also be manufacturing, installation, and operational errors. A flying drone was used for finding failures by thermographic scouting. Furthermore, electroluminescent (EL) and flash tests give a comprehensive view of the real state of the modules in a mobile laboratory. We had the opportunity to summarize these test results of more than a thousand modules operating in a solar power plant. The report on the power plant shows that a significant part of the modules became unusable in a short time. After four years, 10% of the 260 Wp modules suffered a performance reduction of more than 10%.

This article presents the results of studies on the impact of acoustic waves on geophones and microphones used to measure airblasts carried out in a reverberation chamber. During the tests, a number of test signals were generated, of which two are presented in this article: frequency-modulated sine (sine sweep) waves in the 30–300 Hz range, and the result of detonating 3 g of pyrotechnic material inside the chamber. Then, based on the short-time Fourier transform, the spectral subtraction method was used to remove unwanted disruption interfering with the recorded signal. Using MATLAB software, a program was written that was calibrated and adapted to the specifics of the measuring equipment based on the collected test results. As a result, it was possible to clean the signals of interference and obtain a vibration signal propagated by the substrate. The results are based on signals registered in the laboratory and made in field conditions during the detonation of explosive materials.

Material properties at elevated temperatures are important factors in the fire safety design and numerical analysis of concrete members strengthened with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. Most of the previous research mainly focused on tensile strength and elastic modulus in conventional steady state temperature tests. However, the transient state test method is more realistic for strengthening concrete structures. At the same time, the coefficient of thermal expansion of FRP composites is also one of the important factors affecting concrete members at elevated temperatures. This paper presents a detailed experimental investigation on the longitudinal thermal expansion deformation, and the mechanical properties of carbon FRP (CFRP) tendons with 8 mm diameter in the steady state and transient state. The results indicate that longitudinal deformation of CFRP tendons is negative at high temperature; in addition, the transient state test results of CFRP tendons are slightly higher than the steady state test results. The final part of this paper assesses the accuracy of different empirical models. Furthermore, a new equation calculating the properties of CFRP composites at elevated temperatures is presented with the numerical fitting technique, which is in good agreement with the experimental results.

In recent years, due to intensified global competitiveness in die machining, further reduction of lead time, lower costs and higher accuracy are in demand. 5-axis machining is receiving attention as a means to solving these issues. However, differing to the conventional 3-axis machining, complex thinking tasks such as determining tool orientation while considering interference are required in the process design phase prior to machining, which not only places pressure on even those experienced workers, but also consumes a significantly longer amount of time than that required for the actual machining itself. Accordingly, with the aim of shortening the overall lead time from machining process design through to machining itself, we have developed a support system which makes highly efficient indexing 5-axis machining process design possible in a short time even for inexperienced workers. This report presents the algorithms contrived and calculation test results.

CV. Nukegraphic Indonesia as one of the fast growing website in Indonesia would require a lot of support, including support in the field of Information Technology. Recording task list that still use manual systems, often prevent the processing of information about the details of the status of the task and the status of projects ongoing or already completed in the form of a percentage of each project, as well as recording task that still use paper media is also considered only will lead to waste in paper usage. Recording task that is only made in the scope of the company's staff also hinder the work process of the company when staff are outside the company. The method used in the manufacture of a web-based application taskboard this form of collecting data through observation and questionnaires were distributed in the scope of the company. The test results of these applications concluded that with the application taskboard-based website is an account executive can find out information about the details of the status and the status of the project in a short time, because the data processing has been made into a computerized provided through the application, both an account executive and members are also more easy in knowing the task that must be done even though it is outside the company. With this application is expected to help the performance of employees in a company to be more productive
