Rural electrification schemes are necessary for social and economic development. In several countries of Africa, Asia and Latin America this issue is fundamental and some governments have adopted new policies to increase ...

A great improvement in the absorption of energy of a wave energy converter (WEC) is obtained with a time-varying power take-off (PTO) damping over a constant damping. In a passive control scheme based on the Hilbert-Huang ...

The underlying activity in the brain can be estimated using methods based on discrete physiological models of the neural activity. These models involve parameters for weighting the estimated source activity of previous ...

When brain activity ions, the potential for human capacities augmentation is promising. In this paper, EMD is used to decompose EEG signals during Imagined Speech in order to use it as a biometric marker for creating a ...

Phasor estimation has many application areas and has therefore attracted significant research focus. Classical phasor estimation proposed many years ago, considers the phasor to be time independent which means constant ...

Wide area monitoring systems (WAMSs) enables the real-time monitoring of power system dynamics by bringing together new developments in the field of measurement, communication and computing. Measurements of voltage and ...

Current problems related to high-level security access are increasing, leaving organizations and persons unsafe. A recent good candidate to create a robust identity authentication system is based on brain signals recorded ...

Fred Olsen is currently testing their latest wave energy converter (WEC), Lifesaver, outside of Falmouth Bay in England, preparing it for commercial operation at the Wavehub test site. Previous studies, mostly focusing on ...

Two different single-phase synchronisation schemes based on orthogonal system generation (OSG) are modelled in the linear, time-periodic framework. The frequency adaptive Hilbert phase locked loop (PLL) and the frequency-fixed ...
