Hawaii Deep Water Cable Program, phase II : cable vessel subsystem feasibility criteria [PDF]

, 1986
The Cable Vessel Subsystem (CVSS) is a major hardware element to be used on the baseline commercial cable system. The cable system will link the geothermal resources on the island of Hawaii to the Oahu electrical grid system. The present CVSS Feasibility

Torque mode control of a Bowden cable-driven assistive system

, 2012
A cable-driven actuating system is proposed in this paper. The proposed system is attractive for rehabilitation systems because the weight of the actuator is not imposed on the human body.

A Decoupling Module Based on a Geometrical-Balance Mechanism for Mitigating Cable Length Variation in Cable-Driven Applications

Machines
Cable-driven mechanisms are increasingly popular in applications requiring low-inertia operation. However, issues like cable loosening, which leads to reduced durability and stability with long-term use, have not been fully addressed in previous studies.

Application of Superluminescent Light Emitting Diode to Electrooptic Modulator Based PD Continuous On-line Monitoring System

, 2005
Partial discharge monitoring provides effective evaluation of power cables, particularly of joints that are installed on site. Continuous on-line monitoring can provide information about progressing degradation under operational stresses, thus reducing ...

Space charge accumulation under the effects of temperature gradient on solid dielectric DC cable

, 2009
It is well known that existence and accumulation of space charge within the insulating material poses threat to the reliability in the operation of dc power cables. When the cables are loaded under high voltage direct current (HVDC), temperature gradient
