<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">In this paper, a Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) has been utilized for processing the current signal in order to fault-location evaluation in network transmission using pre-fault and post-fault current data of both the terminals of a transmission line. In fact, the basis of the work is based on the information recorded before the fault at the end of the line and after the fault at the beginning of the line received by the relay. Obviously, high-frequency components are created at the time of the fault, which is a way of extracting these components using a wavelet transform. In this design, characteristics extorted from synchronous recording of three-phase current signals at the two terminals using DWT. In the following, can accurately estimate the exact location of the fault in the transmission network by extraction and subtracting of the minimum and maximum components of the DWT approximate and detail components of the signal before and after the fault (pre-fault and post-fault). The simulation results reveal that the minimum and maximum extracted components are highly dependent on the fault resistance. Hence, due to increase the fault resistance, the level of signal decomposition has to be increased so that the algorithm is not compromised. Eventually, the proposed method is tested on the transmission network of 735 kV at different distances of the transmission line, which indicates that the proposed algorithm can accurately estimate the fault distance, depending on the type of fault (including low-impedance and high-impedance fault) by changing the signal decomposition level.</abstract>

In automotive industry, the IEC 61508 Standard adapted the ISO 26262 restrictions for Electrical and Electronic Devices. Conducting an FMEA reduces the costs by focusing on preventing failures, improving safety and increasing customer satisfaction. This paper presents a case study of a FMEA on a CAN (Controller Area Network) Bus Harness considering the entire process from defining the scope and building the team, to the action plan that will reduce the Risk Priority Number below the acceptable risk value. Also, the brainstorming that identifies the possible failure modes is presented.</abstract>

<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">Nowadays, many factors lead to selection and utilization of distributed generations (DG) in distributed networks. But more penetration of DG's in network faced with problem due to existence of passive and inactive distribution networks. One of these essential issues is voltage rise due to injection of active power generated by DG's. That in this paper, control strategies for controlling of voltage profile of distribution network and adjustment of increase of DG's penetration is assessed and an optimal strategy for voltage rise with mathematical formulation is presented that will include both local and coordinated control approaches of reactive power generation. Finally, in this paper an implementation plan with smart control tools of DG's is suggested.</abstract>

Voltage Control in Distribution Networks in Presence of Distributed Generators Based on Local and Coordinated Control Structures

<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">One of the most important issues in employing distribution networks is detecting the fault location in medium-voltage distribution feeders. Due to the vastness of distribution networks and growing distributed generation (DG) sources in this network, detection is difficult with the common methods. The aim of this paper is to present a method based on voltage distributed meters in a medium-voltage distribution network (by smart meters installed along the feeder) in order to detect the fault location in the presence of DG sources. Due to vastness of distribution network and cost of installing smart meters, it is not economically possible to install meters in all the Buses of the network. That’s why in this article, combination of genetic and locating algorithms and fault-based on voltage drop has been used to suggest a method to optimize the meter locations. In order to evaluate the efficiency of the method suggested, first we determine the optimal number and location of the meters and then we apply the fault that has been simulated in different Buses of the sample network, using PSCAD/EMTDC software. After results analysis, the fault location is estimated by MATLAB. Simulation results show that the fault locating method by optimal number of meters has good efficiency and accuracy in detecting faults in different spots and in different resistance ranges.</abstract>

Fault location using the network’s impedance matrix and phasor measurement units (PMU) is a subject that has been recently brought to the location light. In this research, we review the effect of the increased number of PMUs on the precision of the fault location. The method presented in this study uses the impedance transferring between these units and the fault location based on the fault distance. In the suggested method, the uncertainty on the network’s parameters has been considered and using the least-squares of faults, we can obtain the most optimal response. The advantage of this method is that it is not affected by the fault type and resistance of the short connection. In the end, the suggested method is implemented on the 14 bus distribution network and its performance has been evaluated.</abstract>

Thus, in addition to presenting the mobile robot, it is shown how the control system was conceived and achieved. The control system does not contain the display or the touchscreen of the smartphone. The motherboard is connected to the motor driver via a standard interface called “Android ADK Interface”. Motion control is performed using an Android app that is run on the motherboard and that is automatically launched at the power up of the mobile robot. The app offers the possibility of automatic detection and bypass of obstacles and was created in the Android Studio programming environment.</abstract>
