A second‐order sliding mode control with active disturbance rejection for dynamic voltage restorers

open access: yesIET Power Electronics
This paper proposes an extended state observer (ESO)‐based second‐order sliding mode control (SMC) for dynamic voltage restorers (DVRs). Unlike the conventional first‐order SMC and some second‐order SMC (SOSMC) methods that suffer from chattering, the ...

Screening for lung cancer: A systematic review of overdiagnosis and its implications

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Low‐dose computed tomography (CT) screening for lung cancer may increase overdiagnosis compared to no screening, though the risk is likely low versus chest X‐ray. Our review of 8 trials (84 660 participants) shows added costs. Further research with strict adherence to modern nodule management strategies may help determine the extent to which ...

Variable DC voltage based reactive power enhancement scheme for MMC‐STATCOM

open access: yesIET Smart Grid
Constrained by the AC voltage amplitude modulated by a modular multilevel converter‐based static synchronous compensator (MMC‐STATCOM), its reactive power output may be subject to oscillations under grid contingencies, posing a threat to the grid stable ...

A solenoidal electron spectrometer for a precision measurement of the neutron $\beta$-asymmetry with ultracold neutrons

open access: yes, 2008
We describe an electron spectrometer designed for a precision measurement of the neutron $\beta$-asymmetry with spin-polarized ultracold neutrons. The spectrometer consists of a 1.0-Tesla solenoidal field with two identical multiwire proportional chamber

Liquid biopsy epigenetics: establishing a molecular profile based on cell‐free DNA

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) fragments in plasma from cancer patients carry epigenetic signatures reflecting their cells of origin. These epigenetic features include DNA methylation, nucleosome modifications, and variations in fragmentation. This review describes the biological properties of each feature and explores optimal strategies for harnessing cfDNA ...

Analysis of DC voltage oscillation mechanism in AC/DC hybrid distribution system

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2019
DC voltage oscillation occurs more and more frequently in voltage source converter (VSC)-based AC/DC hybrid distribution system (AC/DC HDS). However, currently, the explanation of the oscillation mechanism is not clear enough.
