Article Abstract

Nowadays, predictive current control (PCC) strategy has been recognized as a promising option for the control of electric drives for their control flexibility, fast dynamic response and weighting factorless structure of objective function. However, such kinds of conventional control strategies make drives to suffer from the ingress of significant harmonics in stator current, increasing further the steady state flux ripple followed by a noticeable torque ripple. To ameliorate these aforementioned shortcomings of conventional scheme, the present work employs the concept of virtual voltage vector (V) in PCC strategy. The mathematical steps of the proposed VPCC make the scheme more frontward in delay compensation, and also less parameter sensitive than the conventional one. As a baseline for the performance analysis, the present VPCC is compared with a weighting factorless V based predictive flux control (PFC) scheme in induction motor (IM) drive. A speed adaptive flux observer is considered for the speed estimation purpose in both the control schemes. The performance of both the sensorless schemes for IM drive are analysed in MATLAB/Simulink, and also experimentally verified in a 2.2 kW IM drive test bench.

The development of high-performance wearable haptic actuators remains challenging for immersive virtual reality (VR) applications due to limitations in voltage efficiency, low-voltage operation, and tactile fidelity. This work presents conformal elastic electret actuators composed of silica and poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) nanocomposites and liquid-metal (LM) electrodes, which overcome limitations in skin-device mechanical mismatch and energy efficiency. Through parametric polarization optimization under coupled thermal-electric fields (4 MV/m, 180 °C), the actuators demonstrate low threshold voltage (38.

Recent advancements in synchrophasor measurement technologies have introduced an unprecedented level of visibility in power distribution networks (PDNs), providing a high-quality data foundation for the accurate perception of event source locations. However, the high cost and deployment expense pose a significant challenge in balancing system observability and event source location identification (ESLI) accuracy. In this paper, we propose a staged ESLI scheme based on voltage measurement deviation (VMD), which can achieve high-precision ESLI and event current calculations under extremely low-observability conditions, where the measurement devices are deployed only at the head substation and terminal buses.

The droop control strategy, known for its communication-free nature, is widely adopted for the parallel operation of inverter units. However, in microgrids, mismatches in line impedances and various measurement inaccuracies often lead to imbalanced reactive power sharing among inverters and significant circulating current. To address these challenges, this paper proposes an adaptive droop control method that relies solely on local measurements from each inverter, eliminating the need for communication.

Cardiac computed tomography (CCT) is increasingly used to evaluate congenital heart disease (CHD), but remains underutilized in low and middle-income countries (LMICs) due to training and system level barriers. Structured quality improvement (QI) strategies for safe implementation are limited. This initiative aimed to implement a high-quality congenital CCT service in a resource-limited public hospital through structured QI methods, multidisciplinary collaboration across cardiology, anesthesia, radiology, and surgery, and innovative training approaches including virtual mentorship without requiring new capital equipment.
