We propose a surrogate-assisted reference vector guided evolutionary algorithm (EA) for computationally expensive optimization problems with more than three objectives. The proposed algorithm is based ...

A model is presented that reproduces spiking and bursting behavior of known types of cortical neurons. The model combines the biologically plausibility of Hodgkin-Huxley-type dynamics and the ...

In this paper, a new high voltage gain step-up dc-dc converter is proposed for interfacing renewable power generation. The configuration optimally integrates both the coupled-inductor and ...

It is well known that both gravity and magnetolluric (MT) methods can be used for the depth-to-basement estimation due to the density and conductivity contrast between the sedimentary basin and the ...

In this paper, the fixed-time control problem of DC-DC buck converter systems with mismatched disturbances is investigated. Firstly, the sliding mode fixed-time observers are constructed to estimate ...

The motor drive system plays a significant role in the safety of electric vehicles as a bridge for power transmission. Meanwhile, to enhance the efficiency and stability of the drive system, more and ...

This article proposes a novel event-triggered second-order sliding mode (SOSM) control algorithm using the small-gain theorems. The developed algorithm has glob ...

For microgrids with photovoltaic (PV) prosumers, the effective energy sharing management (ESM) is important for the operation. In this paper, a Stackelberg game approach for ESM is proposed. First, ...

In this paper, an atmospheric-pressure dielectric barrier discharge is used to modify the surface of the epoxy material and enhance the dissipation of surface charge to reduce the accumulation of ...

As a general and rigid mathematical tool, wavelet theory has found many applications and is constantly developing. This article reviews the development history of wavelet theory, from the construction ...

The Industry 4.0 paradigm is boosting the relevance of predictive maintenance (PdM) for manufacturing and production industries. PdM strongly relies on Internet of Things (IoT), which digitalizes the ...

This paper proposes a quadratic boost dc-dc converter with a high voltage gain and reduced voltage stresses. The conventional quadratic boost converter has a limited voltage gain, which is not ...
