Low complexity energy management strategy for grid profile smoothing of a residential grid-connected microgrid using generation and demand forecasting
(Elsevier, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
This paper presents the design of an energy management strategy based on a low complexity Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) for grid power profile smoothing of a residential grid-connected microgrid including Renewable Energy ...
Correlation between discharge timings of pairs of motor units reveals the presence but not the proportion of common synaptic input to motor neurons
(American Physiological Society, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
We investigated whether correlation measures derived from pairs of motor unit (MU) spike trains are reliable indicators of the degree of common synaptic input to motor neurons. Several 50-s isometric contractions of the ...
Simultaneous measurement of humidity and temperature based on a partially coated optical fiber long period grating
(Elsevier, 2016)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
A humidity and temperature optical fiber sensor based on a long-period grating (LPG), which can provide simultaneous response to both magnitudes, is proposed and demonstrated via experiments. Previously, the LPG was fully ...
End-of-fiber signals strongly influence the first and second phases of the M wave in the vastus lateralis: implications for the study of muscle excitability
(Frontiers Media, 2018)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
It has been recurrently observed that, for compound muscle action potentials (M wave) recorded over the innervation zone of the vastus lateralis, the descending portion of the first phase generally shows an 'inflection' ...
Compact dual-band terahertz quarter-wave plate metasurface
(IEEE, 2014)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
A dual-band quarter-wave plate based on a modified extraordinary transmission hole array is numerically analyzed and experimentally demonstrated at terahertz frequencies. To control independently orthogonal polarizations, ...
Novel sensor design using photonic crystal fibres for monitoring the onset of corrosion in reinforced concrete structures
(IEEE, 2014)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
In this paper, a novel sensing technique has been designed and investigated for the direct, in situ detection of steel corrosion distributed in reinforced concrete structures. At present, structural health monitoring in ...
Mapping smooth profile H-plane rectangular waveguide structures to substrate integrated waveguide technology
(Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2014)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The guidelines for mapping rectangular waveguide structures to substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) technology are well understood for structures with straight walls. However, the mapping of a smooth profile structure from ...
Growth in the number of references in engineering journal papers during the 1972-2013 period
(Springer, 2014)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The number of references per paper, perhaps the best single index of a journal’s scholarliness, has been studied in different disciplines and periods. In this paper we present a four decade study of eight engineering ...
A comparative study of degradation and performance of thin film photovoltaic generators versus a multi-crystalline generator
(2013)
info:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObject,
Thin film solar cells (TFSC) are supposed to have higher energy yield rates than crystalline silicon (Si-x) mainly possible by some enhancements like lower temperature coefficient and higher absorption of diffuse light. ...
A tool for the performance evaluation and failure detection of Amareleja PV plant (Acciona) from SCADA
(2015)
info:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObject,
This paper describes a tool developed for the performance evaluation and failure detection in a 45.6 MWp PV plant installed by the company Acciona in Amareleja (Portugal). The paper describes the PV plant configuration and ...
