Cascaded Multilevel Inverter-Based Asymmetric Static Synchronous Compensator of Reactive Power
2022
The topology of the static synchronous compensator of reactive power for a low-voltage three-phase utility grid capable of asymmetric reactive power compensation in grid phases has been proposed and analysed. It is implemented using separate, independent cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverters for each phase. Every inverter includes two H-bridge cascades. The first cascade operating at grid frequency is implemented using thyristors, and the second one—operating at high frequency is based on the high-speed MOSFET transistors. The investigation shows that the proposed compensator is able to compensate the reactive power in a low-voltage three-phase grid when phases are loaded by highly asymmet…
Analysis of Viral Advertisement Re-Posting Activity in Social Media
2016
More and more businesses use social media to advertise their services. Such businesses typically maintain online social network accounts and regularly update their pages with advertisement messages describing new products and promotions. One recent trend in such businesses’ activity is to offer incentives to individual users for re-posting the advertisement messages to their own profiles, thus making it visible to more and more users. A common type of an incentive puts all the re-posting users into a random draw for a valuable gift. Understanding the dynamics of user engagement into the re-posting activity can shed light on social influence mechanisms and help determine the optimal incentiv…
Variable selection with unbiased estimation: the CDF penalty
2022
We propose a new SCAD-type penalty in general regression models. The new penalty can be considered a competitor of the LASSO, SCAD or MCP penalties, as it guarantees sparse variable selection, i.e., null regression coefficient estimates, while attenuating bias for the non-null estimates. In this work, the method is discussed, and some comparisons are presented.
Variable Selection with Quasi-Unbiased Estimation: the CDF Penalty
2022
We propose a new non-convex penalty in linear regression models. The new penalty function can be considered a competitor of the LASSO, SCAD or MCP penalties, as it guarantees sparse variable selection while reducing bias for the non-null estimates. We introduce the methodology and present some comparisons among different approaches.
Smart Monitoring for Semantic Wireless (SCADA/DCS) Systems with Semantic SNMP Protocol.
2015
International audience; n this paper we propose a new implementation of SNMP protocol through (WS) and SOAP protocol, for wireless semantic (SCADA/DCS) systems and (IT-SCADA) platform monitoring. (WS) and SOAP may run on top of secure transport services implemented through protocols like HTTPS combined with industrial protocols as (DNP3, SOAP, ISM BAND, and ZIGBEE).We chose ZIGBBE wireless protocol for implementing our semantic security (IT-SCADA) management platform with semantic SNMP protocol via WS. To detect and infiltrate wireless radio network and semantic attacks, the use of (WS) gateways is needed to include SNMP devices into (WS) based management architecture. The evaluation shows …
Web Monitoring System and Gateway for Serial Communication PLC
2012
Abstract An industrial process requires interacting with the rest of the plant, being able to exchange data with other devices and monitoring systems in order to optimize production, reporting information and providing control capabilities to distant users. Internet, and, especially web browsers are an excellent tool to provide information for remote users, allowing not only monitoring but also controlling the industrial process as an SCADA software or HMI system. The proposed system does not need specific proprietary software and its associated license costs. In this work, a webserver system is implemented under a Freescale microcontroller, acting as a gateway for a simple PLC with single …
Weather sensor fault detection in meteorological masts
2020
Wind power has become the world’s fastest growing renewable technology. The world-wide wind power installed capacity has exceeded 597 GW, and the new installations during the last three years was an average of 50 GW per year. A major issue with wind power system and with meteorological masts is the relatively high cost of operation and maintenance (OM). Wind turbines and sensor towers are hard-to-access structures, and they are often located in remote areas. That’s why continuous monitoring of wind turbine health using automated failure detection algorithms can improve turbine reliability and reduce maintenance costs by detecting failures before they reach a catastrophic stage and by elimin…
Ontology and protocol secure for SCADA: Int. J. of Metadata, Semantics and Ontologies, 2014 Vol.9, No.2, pp.114 - 127
2014
International audience; In this work, we present a semantic cyber security system and we study its semantic intelligent systems vulnerabilities, focusing on the semantic attacks. For resolving semantic problems we propose a security global solution for the new generation of SCADA systems. The proposed solution aims at protecting critical semantic SCADA processes from the effects of major failures and semantic vulnerabilities in the modern IT-SCADA network. We used a security block in the global network access point, security protocols deployed in different network (OSI) levels and security ontologies deployed in security devices. We used our mixed coordinates (ECC) cryptography solution, th…
Perfluoroketene dithioacetals and perfluorodithiocarboxylic acid derivatives: Versatile tools for organofluorine synthesis
2007
Perfluoroketene dithioacetals are simple and versatile compounds that can be transformed into a large variety of trifluoromethyl derivatives, in particular aza- and thiaheterocycles, perhalodithiocrotonic esters, and fluorinated dithiol thiones. These unsaturated perfluorodithioesters and analogs give interesting polar cycloaddition reactions whose mechanism is strongly influenced by the fluorine substitution. This substitution plays an important role in the reactivity of saturated perfluorodithiocarboxylic acids as well. Except for the carbophilic addition of allyl Grignard reagents to perfluorocarboxamides, a domino thiophilic addition-fluoride elimination was the main reaction process. I…
