The renewable energy industry has been growing remarkably over the last years and the recent Fukushima nuclear crisis has given a further incentive worldwide. In this context, solar radiation represents one of the most accessible and clean energy resources. For this reason the number and scale of installed photovoltaic (PV) systems has been growing, and consequently the size of the associated investments,...
The specification of a reliability criterion for solder joints is an important element in the qualification of an electronic product, in particular for the new lead-free alloys. A common approach to reliability evaluation for soldering is to monitor electrical resistance after, or better during, the testing. The techniques employed for DC resistance monitoring will capture information regarding transients...
For researches on energy harvesting in building automation two independent power sources have been examined. Therefor long term power profiles have been analysed, which show the available energy per transducer over time. These profiles have been investigated according to their ability to supply an energy autonomous system and to improve the availability and reliability of operation. To reduce the...
The renewable energy based on photovoltaic (PV) has been growing remarkably in the last years with many investments in new and bigger plants worldwide. A PV plant is a complex system composed by several devices. Among these, a fundamental equipment is represented by the inverter, the fault or failure of which can lead to looses in the electricity production of the plant. For this reason an important...
