A control strategy of sine-sine pulse width modulation （PWM） is studied. Compared with the traditional current-source inverter, the power frequency inductors and power frequency transformer are replaced with high frequency inductors and a high frequency transformer. Thus, the proposed inverter has advantages of small volume, low cost, low total harmonic distortion （THD）, low power losses, high power factor （PF） and simple control. Furthermore, grid voltage cannot influence output current of the grid-connected inverter and the current-source inverter with a high PF that approaches one has been realized. Finally, validity of the theory analysis and feasibility of the control scheme are shown by simulation and experimental results.展开更多

文摘The transient synchronization stability of grid-forming converters(GFMCs)is significantly challenged under grid voltage sags.Continuous efforts have been devoted to analyzing the GFMC transient stability,with limited attention paid to the impacts of control loop dynamics.However,the complex control dynamics,especially the interactions between the active/reactive power control loops and the current saturation process(CSP),are crucial for accurately describing the transient behavior and evaluating the stability.Thus,in this study,a new large-signal GFMC model is established,considering the reactive power control(RPC)with different kinds of controllers and the CSP simultaneously.It is revealed that GFMC does not switch to the current-limited mode immediately,and the dynamics of RPC further affect the transient behavior before the current limiting significantly.Hence,the complex control dynamics can alter the mode switching point of current saturation,thereby increasing the risk of loss of synchronization(LOS).Based on the above findings,comprehensive comparisons of typical RPC controllers are presented to facilitate practical engineering applications.A unified stability enhancement method is proposed for solving the problem of LOS.Finally,experiments validate the correctness of the analysis and the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.

文摘Lithium metal batteries(LMBs)are promising candidates for next-generation high-energy-density storage devices.However,an unstable lithium metal anode poses significant issues that critically compromise battery safety and cycle life,including lithium dendrite formation,solid electrolyte interphase degradation,dead lithium accumulation,and substantial volume fluctuations during cycling.These problems can be addressed by regulating lithium deposition and suppressing side reactions through the modification of copper current collectors using three classes of materials:metal and metal oxide,carbon,and polymer materials.This review comprehensively examines recent advances in the application of these materials as current collector coatings.Particularly,their distinct roles in the lithium deposition process are analyzed to understand how they mitigate the issues associated with the lithium metal anode.Furthermore,their inherent limitations are considered to inform future research directions.While each class of materials offers specific advantages,multifunctionality is required to effectively regulate lithium deposition.In prospect,a novel composite copper current collector design that integrates the merits of the aforementioned advanced materials is proposed.The insights from this review provide valuable guidance for the rational design of modified copper current collectors,which would significantly improve the safety and cycle life of LMBs and advance their commercialization.

文摘When the converter bus voltage of a voltage source converter-based high voltage direct current(VSC-HVDC)system drops below a certain predetermined threshold,the system enters low-voltage ride-through(LVRT)mode to avoid overcurrent and potential equipment failure,during which it operates as a controlled current source.The influence mechanism of LVRT control strategies on short-circuit current and overall system stability remains not yet fully and systematically investigated.First,this paper provides an overview of several LVRT strategies for VSC-HVDC systems and examines their effects on short-circuit current contribution.Next,it analyzes in detail the mechanisms through which active and reactive currents injected during LVRT impact system frequency stability,voltage stability,and synchronization stability.To address these interrelated issues,an optimized and comprehensive LVRT strategy incorporating short-circuit current constraints is proposed.The approach determines the active current ratio based on system frequency stability requirements and dynamically adjusts the active current recovery rate via phase control of the VSC-HVDC bus.The remaining capacity is allocated to reactive current support,thereby enhancing voltage and synchronization stability while maintaining sufficient short-circuit current margin and system frequency stability.Finally,simulations conducted on the PSS/E platform,using actual grid data from a selected cross-section system,validate convincingly the effectiveness of the proposed parameter optimization strategy for VSC-HVDC low-voltage ride-through.
文摘Transcranial direct current stimulation(tDCS)is a non-invasive technique that modifies cortical excitability and induces neuroplasticity using low-intensity electrical currents.Nuclear medicine technologies like positron emission tomography(PET)and single-photon emission computed tomography(SPECT)can quantify cerebral metabolism and other dynamics.Evidence suggests that combining tDCS with these imaging methods enhances understanding and outcomes for neurological and psychiatric conditions.This review highlights how nuclear medicine can objectively characterize tDCS eff ects,map network modulation,and identify predictive biomarkers.PET and SPECT indicate changes in glucose metabolism and neurotransmitter activity post-tDCS,demonstrating their value in validation.While the co-application of these methodologies is still in conceptual stages,their integration may advance precision neuromodulation and inform rehabilitation strategies.

文摘To elucidate the accelerated degradation mechanisms of metallic interconnects in operational solid oxide fuel cells,the oxidation behavior of FSS430 ferritic stainless steel under the coupling of simultaneous electrical current and high-temperature exposure is investigated.Isothermal thermogravimetric analysis was employed to quantify oxidation kinetics,complemented by microstructural characterization using X-ray diffraction,scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy.Experimental results demonstrate that the applied current dramatically enhances oxidation rates,increasing specific mass gain from 0.25 mg/cm^(2)(0 A/cm^(2))to 5.20 mg/cm^(2)(0.2 A/cm^(2))and oxide scale thickness from 1.87 to 15.62μm after 200 h.This acceleration originates from current-induced electromigration forces that promote cationic transport through the oxide layer.The quantitative relationships between current density and oxidation parameters are established,enabling predictive modeling of interconnector degradation in solid oxide fuel cell(SOFC)systems.
文摘Exercise produces a decrease in pain sensitivity via an effect called exercise-induced hypoalgesia(EIH).Transcranial direct current stimulation(tDCS),acting on similar analgesic mechanisms as EIH,represents a potential complementary intervention that may amplify the effects of exercise on pain.This study aimed to explore if anodal tDCS could enhance the effect of exercise on pain compared to exercise alone.A total of 35 healthy participants aged 19–37 years completed a familiarisation session followed by two separate sessions where active and sham tDCS was applied in a randomised cross-over design.The familiarisation session involved familiarisation to the pain assessment and exercise tasks,while the subsequent tDCS sessions involved pain sensitivity assessment,exercise and either anodal tDCS or sham tDCS.tDCS doses were applied at 2 mA over the primary motor cortex for 10 min,with the reference electrode placed over the contralateral supraorbital area.The exercise task involved a sustained isometric grip strength contraction at 35%of maximal voluntary contraction(MVC)until volitional exhaustion.Pain sensitivity was evaluated as pressure pain threshold before tDCS,after tDCS,and after exercise.Across both tDCS conditions,pain threshold was higher after exercise when compared to pre-and post-tDCS measurement.This increase in pain threshold did not differ between active and sham tDCS conditions.Our findings suggest that the hypoalgesic effects of active anodal tDCS over the motor cortex prior to exercise are no greater than the effects of sham tDCS prior to exercise.
