This paper proposes a super capacitor energy storage-based modular multilevel converter (SCES-MMC) RTR for mine hoist application.Different from the conventional MMCs, the sub-modules employ distributed super capacitor banks, which are designed to absorb the regenerative energy of mine hoist and released in the traction condition, so as to improve
This paper aims to indicate a new methodological approach, based on generative algorithms, to attempt a more in-depth and transversal understanding of the behavior of these wooden structures.The developed method accelerates modeling procedures and brings on new tools for analyzing these structural systems when surveyed through TLS devices.The main
Abstract Background The basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factors play crucial roles in plant growth, development, and responses to environmental changes.The mangrove plant Kandelia obovata, native to subtropical and tropical coastal intertidal zones, has evolved various adaptive mechanisms to cope with unstable muddy substrates, tidal fluc
