Pupillary behaviour and dilation have been considered in the literature as an effective input for the measurement of cognitive workload and stress. In this work, we explore the correlation between pupil dilation and features extracted from low quality video frames that have been captured using a normal webcam during a set of computer-based tasks. The methodology presented herein attempts to develop...
Aiming at the problem that the fault feature information of the Fan bearing is often overwhelmed by the strong background noise; this paper proposes to use the Improved Mathematical Morphological Undecimated Wavelet to extract fault characteristics. M Mathematical Morphological Undecimated Wavelet has morphological filtering characteristics and wavelet decomposition of multi-resolution characteristics...
In order to meet the needs of large capacity, long distance power transmission and nationwide power grid interconnection, China is making great efforts to develop UHV transmission project. Switching overvoltage directly influences the construction cost and operation reliability of UHV transmission system, how to reduce the switching overvoltage deeply is one of the key technical problems that need...
This paper discusses design techniques that enable transduction and digitization of temperature at very low power levels. An example architecture is presented that transduces temperature in a fully-integrated CMOS chip by charging a pair of digitally-controllable integrated capacitors with a pair of pA current sources that are proportional-to and constant-with temperature, respectively, and digitally...
This paper mainly concerns the issue of asynchronously switched control for a class of continuous-time switched linear systems with persistent dwell time (PDT). Asynchronous switching implies that when a subsystem switches the matched controller remains active for a finite period of time, such that the Lyapunov-like function increases. A semi-time-dependent (STD) multiple Lyapunov-like function with...
A predictive control scheme for the third-harmonic injection two-stage matrix converter (3TSMC) under unbalanced input voltages is presented. The proposed scheme is designed to predict the future behavior of the third-harmonic injection current and load currents respectively for each valid switching state. The control scheme selects the state that minimizes the error between the predicted currents...
Here, an approach for synthesizing large-area and high-quality MoS2 flakes was developed. In addition, we made up the MoS2 photoelectric detector and studied the photocurrent response of the detector. We firstly used the ceramic pieces to control MoO3 evaporation for obtaining large-area MoS2. Our CVD reaction is hydrogen free, very simple operation, high repetition rate and cost saving. The obtained...
Microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a device which can convert chemical energy into electrical energy directly, it has great utilization potentiality in the field of environmental monitoring and new energy development. The change of current is used to characterize the change of pollutant concentration. The power density of MFCs is so low and unstable that energyharvesting circuits are needed for real world...
This Polyimide film has excellent electrical properties and it serves as an important insulating material which is widely used in the variable-frequency motor and wind generator. Since high temperature is a significant reason for degradation in insulation, the space charge distributions of polyimide (PI) films in high temperature condition is worth investigating. Under different temperature, the conductivity...
The ideal Gaussian pulse can be more convenient to simulate the excitation of electromagnetic waves and its propagation characteristics, but the pulse and the actual local discharge current waveform is not exactly the same. At the same time, most of the previous research contents have adopted the simplified GIS simulation model, which does not take into account the influence of the arc of the basin...

Bulky capacitors are usually needed to buffer the double-frequency ripple power (DFRP) in single-phase power factor correction (PFC) rectifier. It is important to reduce the capacitance requirements for improving the system reliability and power density. In this paper a control method for capacitive idling converter based PFC (CIC-PFC) rectifier is proposed. The DFPR is diverted to the energy transfer...
The interleaved bidirectional DC-DC converter is a core component of the battery energy storage system. However, if an open-switch fault occurs at the interleaved bidirectional DC-DC converters, the currents of two branches will become unbalanced, which will increase the battery current ripple and shorten the life of batteries and energy storage systems. In this paper, a fault tolerant topology is...
The paper is concerned with the robust finite-time stabilization problem of quadrotors subject to inertia uncertainty and disturbances. The underlying stabilization problem consists of controller designs for position loop and attitude loop, both of which are carried out based on the terminal sliding mode control approach. First, a robust finite-time position controller is designed by considering the...

This paper addresses the problem of output feedback tracking control for a class of stochastic high-order nonlinear systems. By using the homogeneous domination technique, an output tracking controller is designed to guarantee that the tracking error can be made arbitrarily small while all the states of the closed-loop system remain to be bounded in probability.
