Multifunctional Oxadiazole‐Based Polycatenars: A Pathway to Polar Columnar Phases

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Aromatic core fluorination directs oxadiazole‐based polycatenars into ferroelectric and antiferroelectric columnar phases with supergelation and photo‐responsiveness. ABSTRACT Polar columnar liquid crystals (LCs) offer a promising pathway to nanostructured architectures for next‐generation ferroelectric devices.

Structural Resemblance Between Droop Controllers and Phase-Locked Loops

IEEE Access, 2016
It is well known that droop control is fundamental to the operation of power systems and now the parallel operation of inverters, while phase-locked loops (PLLs) are widely adopted in modern electrical engineering.

New Perspectives on Droop Control in AC Microgrid [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, 2017
Virtual impedance, angle droop and frequency droop control play important roles in maintaining system stability, and load sharing among distributed generators (DGs) in microgrid. These approaches have been developed into three totally independent concepts, but present strong relevance.

Distributed Adaptive Droop Control for DC Distribution Systems [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Energy Conversion, 2014
Summary form only given: A distributed-adaptive droop mechanism is proposed for secondary/primary control of dc microgrids. The conventional secondary control that adjusts the voltage set point for the local droop mechanism is replaced by a voltage regulator.

3D Printed Multimaterial Microfluidic Transistors

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
We introduce a biocompatible, high resolution photopolymer resin that closely mimics the Young's Modulus (elasticity) and reversible stretchability (no hysteresis) of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS), enabling the fabrication of microfluidic transistors (i.e., microvalves capable of proportional amplification) by multimaterial stereolithography (mSLA ...

Current-Limiting Droop Control of Grid-Connected Inverters [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, 2017
A current-limiting droop controller is proposed\ud for single-phase grid-connected inverters with an\ud LCL filter that can operate under both normal and faulty\ud grid conditions. The controller introduces bounded nonlinear\ud dynamics and, by using nonlinear input-to-state stability\ud theory, the current-limiting property of the inverter is ...
