In grid connected wind turbine (WT) systems, the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) approach has a crucial role in optimizing the wind energy efficiency. To search for the maximum power value of the wind turbine, this contribution proposes a new Maximum Power Point Tracking System (MPPT) for wind turbine related to a permanent magnet synchronous…

Industry 4.0 implementation stipulates effective actuator control. In the present work, a complex order PIa+jb Dc+jd (COPID) controller was designed for a fractional order model of a direct current (DC) motor system. For comparisons, the DC motor system model was also controlled using the conventional proportional integral (PI), proportional integral derivative (PID), proportional resonant (PR) and fractional…

Integration of Distributed Generation (DG) on distribution networks has a positive impact which includes the following: low power losses, improved utility system reliability and voltage improvement at buses. A real distribution network is radial in which energy flow is unidirectional from generation to transmission and from distribution to the load. However, when a DG is…

The wide acceptance of the semantic web language RDF for ontologies creation in various application fields has led to the emergence of numerous RDF data processing solutions, the so-called triplestores, for the storage of RDF data and its querying using the RDF query language SPARQL. Such solutions are however developed under various perspectives and on…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a promising trend in ship energy management systems (EMS). The motivations of this work are designing and implementation of an intelligent energy management system for ship’s electric power system based on an adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and the ship power source is an environmental friend system consists of proton exchange…

Sustainable urban development and utilization of Internet of Things (IoT) technology is driving cities globally to evolve into Smart Cities (SC). The power of IoT services and applications will enable public agencies to provide personalized services to the citizens and inevitably improves their much-needed quality of life. However, although the use of IoT technology proves…

Autonomous vehicles (AVs) technology is expected to provide many benefits for the society such as providing safe transportation to the community and reducing the number of accidents on the roads. With the emergence of AVs, the conventional safety infrastructure in which humans drive their vehicles will need to be upgraded in order to take full…

Music is one of the most popular entertainments, and the music industry continues to increase over time. There are many types of genres in music, and everyone has their own choice of the type of music they want to listen to. The recommendation system is an important function in the application, especially when there are…

Motivation significantly influences the outcome in the rehabilitation of patients. Several developments have been made to assess and increase patient motivation by addressing factors linked to motivation such as the personality of the patient, professional administering rehabilitation, and the rehabilitation environment. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the reliability of a gamified…

The objective of this paper is to allocate transmission congestion cost to responsible generators using a novel method. Deregulation of the electrical power system leads to the compulsion of open access to the transmission system for all entities of the power system. There is a trend to utilize cheaper generators by all loads. This leads…

In vital energy applications especially the agricultural environments, the service of adaptive power utilization plays an essential role in facilitating the usage of Internet of Things systems. Such environments are distinguished by the large range of lands where most of the region lacks the commercial power lines. Reaching some high or deep sensing points is…

The objective of this article is to determine if the self-perception of professional competences has been affected, in systems engineering students, during the health emergency declared in Peru by Covid-19; The results will allow the public university of Peru to make corrective decisions and formulate proposals to improve the functioning of the variable under study.…

This manuscript exhibits a perfect design for a flexible number of modified DC nanogrids within an open energy distribution network (OEDN) that interconnected via a DC bus. Each modified nanogrid implies a single-input multi-output switched boost inverter (SIMO-SBI). The DC-output for each inverter is robustly controlled to keep the DC-bus interconnected voltage constant. The proposed…

Modern power systems are topologically and structurally complicated due to their complex interconnections. Consequently, the complexity of the dynamic stability assessment be-comes more tedious, most especially, when considering a power electronics-based power system operating under faulty conditions. This paper, therefore suggests an alternative approach of Network Structural-Based Technique (NSBT) for the analysis and enhancement of…

Harmful algal blooms (HAB) or “Red tides” are organisms which produce toxins which are harmful to humans, fish, and other marine mammals. The said toxins come from dinoflagellates of genus Pyrodinium Bahamense var Compressum that cause Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning (PSP) and Dinophysis Caudata and Prorocentrum lima which results to Diarrhetic Shellfish Poisoning (DSP). In the…
