Identification and estimation of equivalent area parameters using synchronised phasor measurements

A new approach is proposed for obtaining a non-linear area-based equivalent model of power systems to express the inter-area oscillations using synchronised phasor measurements. The generators that remain coherent for inter-area disturbances over a wide range of operating conditions define the areas, and the reduced model is obtained by representing each area by an equivalent machine. The parameters of the reduced system are identified by processing the obtained measurements, and a non-linear Kalman estimator is then designed for the estimation of equivalent area angles and frequencies. The simulation of the approach on a two-area system shows substantial reduction of non-inter-area modes in the estimated angles. The proposed methods are also applied to a ten-machine system to illustrate the feasibility of the approach on larger and meshed networks.

一种改进的OpenMP指导调度策略研究

在科学计算中,循环结构是最重要的并行对象之一.考虑到负载平衡、调度开销等多方面因素,OpenMP标准提供静态调度、动态调度、指导调度和运行时调度等不同策略.针对指导调度策略不适合递减型循环结构的问题,提出一种改进的new_guided指导调度策略,并在OMPi编译器上加以实现.New_guided调度策略的主要思想是对前半部分的循环采用静态调度,后半部分的循环采用指导调度.针对不同循环结构,在多核处理器上对不同调度策略进行评测.结果表明,在一般情况下,OpenMP默认的静态策略的调度性能最差;对于规则的循环结构和递增的循环结构,动态调度、指导调度和new_guided策略的性能差别不大;对于递减型的循环结构,动态调度和new_guided策略的性能相当,要优于指导调度策略;对于某些极不规则的随机循环结构,动态调度明显优于其他策略,new_guided策略的性能介于动态调度和指导调度之间.

Fractal approach to ac impedance spectroscopy studies of ceramic materials

A novel fractal model for grain boundary regions of ceramic materials was developed. The model considers laterally inhomogeneous distribution of charge carriers in the vicinity of grain boundaries as the main cause of the non-Debye behaviour and distribution of relaxation times in ceramic materials. Considering the equivalent circuit the impedance of the grain boundary region was expressed. It was shown that the impedance of the grain boundary region has the form of the Davidson-Cole equation. The fractal dimension of the inhomogeneous distribution of charge carriers in the region close to the grain boundaries could be calculated based on the relation ds = 1 + β, where β is the constant from the Davidson-Cole equation.
