Electricity prices are rapidly increasing in Europe. Adaptive street lighting projects previously considered as economically unattractive can deliver substantial energy cost saving and short-term payback. We report the energy saving potential of a pilot installation designed to comply with current lighting regulations allowing the adjustment of the power of street lights according to the actual traffic conditions. Adaptive lighting enables significant energy saving in suburban areas where the traffic volume peaks in the evenings and early mornings, but traffic drops to very low level during the night. The decrease of the traffic volume enables the illuminance level and hence the power of the luminaires to be reduced. The system architecture and the principle of operation of an adaptive street lighting pilot comprising five LED luminaires equipped with NB IoT communication modules and traffic monitoring sensors are presented. The methodology used in this study can be tailored to estimate the energy saving potential of any other street lighting application.

In the last few years, the price of battery energy storage (BES) technology (e.g. Lithium-Ion) has fallen tremendously and the cost of generating electricity from renewable energy sources has also decreased, and the trend is increasing. Therefore, the challenge to integrate the low-cost renewable electricity and low-cost storage to compete with conventional electricity generated from fossil fuels is the focus in recent research where BES is the key solution for this challenge. In this paper, the integration of BES into an isolated microgrid (MG) is investigated. This paper study the impact of a BES system on the frequency deviation as one of the critical applications to maintain grid stability considering the main characteristics of the BES and under different disturbances scenarios in an islanded MG. Overall, this paper introduces an open modular framework for future work on the performance of BES technologies from the technical aspect of different grid applications.

The main objective of PANTERA project has been achieved. A multi-dimensional platform of pan European status and influence capable of leveraging coherence and trust as a pull towards enhanced R&I in energy systems centred around an integrated grid active and responsive has been delivered. This platform is currently working for Local Energy Systems in an integrated PAN European Smart Grid with specific emphasis on the low spending countries. This platform brings together the attractiveness of successful partnerships being national, regional, or European building through them the will for enhanced adaption to areas and partnerships that can broaden active participation for mutual benefit. From the beginning the element of sustainable presence of the collaborative platform strongly influenced the design and approach that was adapted.

In many cases, it is useful, important or necessary to use some tools to develop the safety-critical software [12]. These tools are mainly special software tools. This kind a software tool is a special program that we use to develop, test, or generate data for another program [14]. These tools may be used throughout the life cycle, considering this they play a significant role in the quality and qualification of the completed system. These devices appeared in the technical life as early as the 1980s and their use has grown exponentially in recent years. If you want to use a software tool in safety-critical development, you must also have the appropriate rating for those tools. This article deals with the certification of these tools [13].

In this paper, we introduce a network mapping method for wireless sensor networks based on TDMA flooding routing protocol. The aim of the network mapping is to create a map of the entire network with all connections for further analysis. The network discovery method used for leasing Virtual Routing Numbers not provides enough information about all of the network connections. The introduced network mapping method take advantage of the TDMA flooding routing protocol based communication and create the adjacency matrix of the graph abstracted from the wireless sensor network topography.

This paper deals with the possibilities of evaluating the shielding effectiveness through the simulation of the waveguide in the Ansys HFSS simulation software. A waveguide with certain frequency 3.7GHz was done. Frequency range is from 2 to 8 GHz. Materials such as rubber, marble, glass, plexiglass and ferrite were selected for the simulation and subsequently the shielding effectiveness was evaluated.

Cables are undoubtedly major and vital equipment in low voltage (LV) distribution networks. The majority of low voltage cable networks were constructed, as is well known, many years ago. By that time, the cables have been subjected to various stresses. The cable insulation is harmed because of these stresses, which cause failures. Therefore, the condition monitoring (CM) of these existing cable networks gained importance in past years. This study’s samples of O,6/1kV SZRMtKVM-J 4×6 mm PVC insulated cables underwent 4 cycles of thermal stress at 110°C. Each round lasts for six hours. The effects of thermal stress on cable insulation were investigated in time and frequency domain. The extended voltage response (EVR) method is used for time-domain spectroscopy, while Wayne Kerr impedance analyzer is used for frequency domain spectroscopy. This paper presents the initial findings from the current laboratory experiment.

In this paper, a brief overview of the nanostructures produced by droplet epitaxy is given. An outlook to the technology of quantum dots, quantum rings and nanoholes is taken. Thereafter a summary of our investigations on the relationships between the technological and geometrical parameters of these nanostructures is presented. A database is compiled from relatively large amount of literature and has been processed using several methods. By analyzing the data and building regressive models, our intention was to promote the designability of nanostructures. Finally, a short overview of the application possibilities of these nanostructures is given.

One of education’s most challenging tasks is accurately assessing student performance. Unfortunately, even nowadays, assessment is mainly done manually, with teachers manually correcting submitted work, essays, and dissertations. There is plagiarism checking services and algorithms, but these search for matches in theses and publications on the Internet, so they need to be more suitable for facilitating teachers’ daily work. In this paper, we present a self-developed plagiarism screening application that can find duplicates in students’ submitted work. The tool performs simple text comparison and syntactic and semantic checking. We also created an easy-to-use online interface where users can easily create and run projects.

Like the title indicates, the paper approaches a few effects of harmonics, may be the most important concerns in power quality issues, affecting directly electrical efficiency. The introductory section presents briefly a few generalities related to harmonics, i.e., their sources, their methods of analysis, as well as the most important quantitative indices related to them. The second section presents a resolution of powers in non-sinusoidal and unbalanced regimes in accordance with the standard IEC 1459-2010, chiefly important in assessing separately the contributions of the standardized harmonic power components. As a representative example, the third section is devoted to the effects of harmonics affecting induction motors, one of the most type of motors in electric drives. The following experimental section presents a comparison between two case studies in which a squirrel cage induction motor is subjected to two different voltages supply, one almost sinusoidal and the second strongly distorted by interharmonics. The analysis shows a drastic decrease in the efficiency of this type of motor in the presence of interharmonics.
