Study on overvoltage of hybrid LCC-VSC-HVDC transmission

The Journal of Engineering, 2018
Hybrid line commutation converter-voltage-source converter high-voltage direct current transmission (LCC-VSC-HVDC) power transmission has unique technical advantages, but its overvoltage study is not sufficient at present.

Real‐time assay of ribonucleotide reductase activity with a fluorescent RNA aptamer

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ribonucleotide reductases (RNR) synthesize DNA building blocks de novo, making them crucial in DNA replication and drug targeting. FLARE introduces the first single‐tube real‐time coupled RNR assay, which enables isothermal tracking of RNR activity at nanomolar enzyme levels and allows the reconstruction of allosteric regulatory patterns and rapid ...

A novel and easy‐to‐implement modulation scheme for reducing modulation complexity in modular multilevel converter

IET Power Electronics
Modulation strategy plays a key role in the operation of modular multilevel converters (MMC). Although many studies have been carried out on its optimization in MMC, the limitations of hardware implementation are seldom considered.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Analysis and improvement of the reactive power cascade control strategy for MMC‐HVDC receiving‐end converter connected to weak grid

IET Generation, Transmission & Distribution
The weak AC grid in a modular multilevel converter modular multilevel converter based high voltage direct current (MMC‐HVDC) receiving‐end system requires faster reactive power support from the receiving‐end MMC.

Infrared light emission from atomic point contacts [PDF]

, 2016
Gold atomic point contacts are prototype systems to evidence ballistic electron transport. The typical dimension of the nanojunction being smaller than the electron-phonon interaction length, even at room temperature, electrons transfer their excess ...

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.
