Contribution of a smart transformer in the local primary control of a microgrid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In order to enable an easy participation of microgrids in the electricity markets, the smart transformer (ST) concept has been developed. The ST controls the power exchange between a microgrid and the utility network by only controlling its microgrid ...

Electrical Impedance Tomography

open access: yesBritish Journal of Radiology, 1997
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a technique which allows cross-sectional images related to the local electrical impedance within an object to be reconstructed from sets of measurements made on its surface. The main drive behind the development of EIT has been its possible application in medical imaging, as biological tissues are known to ...
