In reliability engineering, especially in the context of reliability test design, it is important to determine how many product samples should be put into field test to evaluate product reliability level or verify whether the product reliability satisfy the predefined requirement in the development contract. In this paper, the determination method on sample size under the condition of Bayesian sequential...
This paper presents a new Maximum Power Loss Sensitivity (MPLS) method and Modified Plant Growth Simulation Algorithm (MPGSA) to find the optimal placement and size of Distributed Generation (DG). This study aims to reduce the total power loss and to improve the voltage profile. The proposed solution method has two steps: first, the MPLS is used to select the optimal position of the DG. Second, the...
This paper presents an analytical model to estimate the motional resistance for partial air gap capacitively-transduced MEMS resonators. This model serves as a link between the well formulated analytical models for conventional air gap and internal dielectric transduction schemes, thereby helping decide which scheme is optimal for a given design frequency. Using this model, we simulate and experimentally...
This paper presents a wide-area damping controller (WADC) based on networked predictive control (NPC), of which the main purpose is to eliminate the impact of the communication delays of the wide-area signals from the wide-area measurement system (WAMS). The proposed WADC incorporates a generalized predictive control (GPC) to generate the optimized future control sequences and a network delay compensator...
