Simultaneous Observations of Geoelectric and Geomagnetic Fields Produced by Magnetospheric ULF Waves
(2020-09-28)Geomagnetic perturbations (B-GEO) related to magnetospheric ultralow frequency (ULF) waves induce electric fields within the conductive Earth-geoelectric fields (E-GEO)-that in turn drive geomagnetically induced currents. ... -
Conductance Model for Extreme Events: Impact of Auroral Conductance on Space Weather Forecasts
(2020-09-27)Ionospheric conductance is a crucial factor in regulating the closure of magnetospheric field-aligned currents through the ionosphere as Hall and Pedersen currents. Despite its importance in predictive investigations of ... -
A novel AC line distance protection scheme for AC/DC hybrid system based on fault likeness factor
(2020-12)Concerning the mal-operation of distance protection in AC/DC hybrid system due to commutation failure in DC system caused by AC-side fault, a novel AC line distance protection scheme based on fault likeness factor is ... -
Four-phase interleaved TCM DC-DC buck converter with matrix inductor in battery charging application
(2021-01)In this paper, a 1-kW DC-DC buck converter with a four-phase interleaved matrix inductor is proposed for battery charging applications. It is well-known that the DC bias on the inductor will cause high core loss as it ... -
Radiogenomic signatures reveal multiscale intratumour heterogeneity associated with biological functions and survival in breast cancer
(2020-09-25)Advanced tumours are often heterogeneous, consisting of subclones with various genetic alterations and functional roles. The precise molecular features that characterize the contributions of multiscale intratumour heterogeneity ... -
A feasibility study to use machine learning as an inversion algorithm for aerosol profile and property retrieval from multi-axis differential absorption spectroscopy measurements
(2020-10-16)In this study, we explore a new approach based on machine learning (ML) for deriving aerosol extinction coefficient profiles, single-scattering albedo and asymmetry parameter at 360 nm from a single multi-axis differential ... -
3D printed graphene-based self-powered strain sensors for smart tires in autonomous vehicles
(2020-10-26)The transition of autonomous vehicles into fleets requires an advanced control system design that relies on continuous feedback from the tires. Smart tires enable continuous monitoring of dynamic parameters by combining ... -
Integrated Transmission-and-Distribution System Modeling of Power Systems: State-of-the-Art and Future Research Directions

Interhemispheric Asymmetries in the Ground Magnetic Response to Interplanetary Shocks: The Role of Shock Impact Angle
(2020-03)Interplanetary (IP) shocks drive magnetosphere-ionosphere (MI) current systems that in turn are associated with ground magnetic perturbations. Recent work has shown that IP shock impact angle plays a significant role in ... -
Review of Control Techniques for Wind Energy Systems
(MDPI, 2020-12-17)In recent years, penetration of renewable energy resources into the power grid has increased significantly. Wind, as a renewable, clean, and abundantly available source of energy, has an important share in the energy mix. ... -
Mathematical modelling of breast cancer cells in response to endocrine therapy and Cdk4/6 inhibition
(2020-08-26)Oestrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer is responsive to a number of targeted therapies used clinically. Unfortunately, the continuous application of any targeted therapy often results in resistance to the therapy. ... -
