Providing stable and reliable power supply for offshore equipment with special power requirements, such as marine data platforms and marine buoys far away from the coast is currently topical research issue. At present, most of these devices use photovoltaic power generation or install high-capacity batteries and carry out regular replacement of electricity supply schemes. Due to the high dependence of photovoltaic power generation on solar radiation and the high cost arising from frequent battery replacements, wave energy is considered as a solution. Wave energy converters (WECs) are devices that convert the energy stored in waves into electrical energy, and its main advantage is the sustainable supply of electricity. In this article, a new built-in wave energy converter with high reliability and low maintenance costs is proposed and investigated for marine data buoys. Its core is a direct-drive energy conversion unit based on a magnetic lead screw design. The device can passively follow the pitching state of the buoy under the impact of waves to maximize its power generation. The proposed WEC is introduced and investigated through model analysis and prototype experiments. The experimental results confirm the power generation performance of a 50 kg power generation prototype and show the advantages of the proposed device.

Objective. Improper management of employees’ emotions has a great impact on work status and work efficiency, and emotional management has increasingly become a very important part of corporate human resource management. How to adjust the various emotions of employees, so that employees can work in a fuller and more passionate attitude, is a problem that enterprise managers need to consider. From the perspective of employees themselves, a good mood will also bring happiness and satisfaction to life and work. Only in this way can the company and the employees be satisfied with each other and continue to maintain the good development momentum of the company. Method. This paper proposes a new method of using virtual reality scenes to induce human emotions. Based on computer science and psychological cognitive science, a scene library of “virtual reality emotion induction system” is constructed. Emotion induction based on virtual reality scenes has better interactivity and generalization, as well as stronger immersion and user operability. Its emotional arousal is high, the data is reliable, and the interference of environmental factors in the induction process is weakened, and relatively objective emotional data can be obtained. The factors affecting the emotional management of the enterprise are investigated by means of a questionnaire survey, statistics and problems are found, and the objective problems existing in the emotional management work of the company are determined. According to the analysis, the problems are summarized, and it is believed that the company still has certain room for improvement and improvement potential in terms of corporate culture construction, emotional counseling system construction, and human resource career planning. In the research of this paper, through the combination of theory and practice, the enterprise’s emotional management work has been comprehensively analyzed, and the practical problems existing in its emotional management work have been found through questionnaires. Results/Discussion. In the field of enterprise human resource management, emotion management is always an eternal topic worthy of our attention. But unfortunately, emotional management has not been given enough attention by managers. Most companies often think that emotions are their own business. Employees should self-regulate, control, and tolerate themselves. They should not bring personal emotions to work and even think that emotional work is unprofessional. This kind of misunderstanding has led to the fact that emotional management has not received due attention and affirmation in many enterprises.

An accurate estimation for the magnetostrictive effect in highly grain-oriented electrical steel sheet (HGO-ESS) is helpful for determining the deformation and vibration originating from magnetostriction during the design stages of electrical equipment such as the motor and power transformer. In this paper, a Preisach-based magnetostriction model for HGO-ESS is proposed to simulate the normal and shear magnetostriction properties under alternating and rotating magnetic fields. In the model, the Everett function databases are constructed and identified by using a set of measured symmetric magnetostriction butterfly loops under different rotating magnetic field conditions. The measurement butterfly loops are measured by a round-type two-dimensional single strain tester (R-2-D-SST). Finally, the simulation data and measurement data under different rotational magnetization conditions are compared to verify the effectiveness of the proposed model.

In order to predict the performance of designed electric machines, and also based on which the high efficiency of the drive systems can be obtained, the accurate calculation of the iron loss is necessary. Taking modeling accuracy versus modeling complexity into account, this article proposes a general and accurate iron loss calculation method considering harmonics based on the loss surface (LS) hysteresis model and finite-element method (FEM). Compared with the previous triangular wave excitation, this article uses the data under sinusoidal wave excitation to establish the LS model, which is more convenient for engineering application. A specimen is tested for different flux densities with harmonics, the extensive results verify the modeling method. Due to a powerful hysteresis model, the iron loss calculation can be realized by the direct integration of hysteresis loops. A separated iron loss calculation package is developed, and it is combined with the commercial finite-element software to compute the iron loss distribution. The method that combines the LS model and FEM is proved feasible by comparing the calculated iron loss with the measured one for the Epstein frame.

This study introduces a new structure of the magnetic lead screw (MLS) intended for wave energy conversion (WEC) applications. One of the key challenges in the application of MLS technology for wave energy lies in the manufacturing of its complicated ideal helix. Structural simplification and processing technology are quite essential in promoting the development of the magnet screw. This study proposes a new method for shaping the desired ideal helix in a simple way with parallelly magnetised magnets. This simple structure reduces manufacturing complexity while maintaining good force density. The magnets with parallel magnetisation are also easier and cheaper to manufacture than the magnets with radial magnetisation. A prototype is manufactured and tested in the laboratory. In addition, the electromagnetic performance of the new structure is evaluated as compared with the magnet screw with ideal helix using the three-dimensional finite element analysis, verifying the advantages of the proposed structure.

This paper investigates the design of passivity-based control for LCL-filtered grid-connected inverter based on the port-controlled Hamiltonian with dissipation (PCHD) model. The interconnection matrix is changed from the original antisymmetric matrix to the upper triangular matrix with zero corner elements, which simplifies the design process. What’s more, to enhance the stability of the system, the combination of classic control theory and modern control theory is proposed to design the damping parameters of the controller. The main idea is to ensure the inverter output impedance is passive. The relationship between the controller parameters and the external interaction stability is compared. The simulation results are carried out to validate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed approach.

This paper presents an identification algorithm of the scalar Preisach model by using a set of symmetric minor hysteresis loops and suggests an improved vector Preisach model to describe the vector and anisotropic hysteresis behavior of a non-oriented (NO) electrical steel sheet (ESS) under rotating magnetic fields. Symmetric minor hysteresis loop is quite easy measured, so an identification algorithm based on symmetric minor hysteresis loop instead of first-order reverse curve is presented in this paper. The vector Preisach model employs a nonlinear coefficient, which is a function of magnitude and a direction of magnetic flux density, to describe the anisotropic property of the NO ESS and increases the numerical accuracy. The validity of the suggested vector Preisach model is investigated through comparisons with the experimental results under various magnetic field conditions.

A new type magnetic lead screw (MLS) is proposed in this paper. The proposed magnetic lead screw is assembled with a single helix permanent magnet (PM) on the translator, and the rotor adopts double helical PMs which is as same as the traditional MLS. This new structure of magnetic lead screw has many advantages, for example, when the proposed MLS is applied to the wave energy power generation system, and without changing its size, the proposed MLS can not only save a lot of PM consumption, but also adjust its maximum thrust by directly adjusting the width of the permanent magnet to adapt to different sea areas. In addition, the proposed MLS has a higher force density. Finally, compared with the traditional MLS, this new type of MLS also has the advantage of fast startup speed. For the proposed MLS, it is analyzed by the two-dimensional (2-D) finite element method (FEM), since the results of 2-D FEM simulation are almost the same as those of three-dimensional (3-D) finite element method (FEM). Additionally, the 3-D FEM is time-consuming. To verify the advantages of the proposed MLS, the performance of the proposed MLS is compared with the traditional MLS and the reluctance-based MLS (RBMLS). At last, the impact of different important parameters on the performance of the proposed MLS are analyzed. It provides a new option for the application of MLS in wave energy power generation systems.

Smart Transformers (ST), which is a power electronic-based transformer with control and communication functionalities, can provide an effective solution to overcome the challenge of future grids. Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are indispensable to compensate sudden variations in the power generation from the renewable energy sources (RES). This paper proposes a current-fed quadruple active bridges (CF-QAB)-based cascaded H-bridge smart transformer architecture, which not only play the role of power electronic transformers, but also achieve the integration of BESS in an electric distribution system. The advantage of the proposed architecture is requiring no additional hardware circuits, which reduces system volume and cost with respect to the existing ST architecture.

The point-absorber-type Wave Energy Converter (WEC) is regarded as one of the most promising forms to convert wave energy into electricity. In this paper, a new global maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control strategy based on the PSO algorithm is proposed to extract the maximum power for the point-absorbing type WEC. Firstly, a mathematical model of the point-absorber-type WEC based on hydrodynamic theory is proposed. In the model, the maximum power extracted state is related to the two parameters RPTO and XPTO. These two parameters are related to the characteristic of the wave and the system and are difficult to obtain directly. Therefore, the above parameters are identified by the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to seek the maximum power point. A given irregular wave is applied to the model to verify the effectiveness of the strategy. In additional, to verify the advantages of the MPPT strategy based on PSO, the proposed strategy is compared with that bases on the Flower Pollination Algorithm (FPA) algorithm.

The cascaded H-bridge (CHB) multilevel converter is a promising topology for large-scale photovoltaic (PV) systems. However, the different PV panels may generate different power, which results in the inter-module and inter-phase power imbalance. Consequently, the over-modulation caused by the inter-module and inter-phase power imbalance is one of the key issues for the CHB-based PV system. This paper analyzes the theoretical constraints on system operation range caused by power imbalance and discusses the necessary and sufficient condition to achieve complete power balance in modular cascaded PV systems based on graph-theory model. According to the graph-theory model, several derivate topology structures are presented and the basic simulation and experimental results are shown to verify their power balancing ability.

This paper presents a simple dynamic vector-play model to calculate the iron loss and describe the vector hysteresis behavior of a non-oriented (NO) electrical steel sheet (ESS) under 50 Hz rotating magnetic fields. Based on the iron loss separation theory, the proposed model is separated to the static hysteresis component and eddy current component. The static hysteresis component is constructed by vector play model, which is identified by using 1 Hz minor $B$ – $H$ loops. And two coefficients $\omega _{x}$ and $\omega _{y}$ are introduced to consider the anisotropic property of NO ESS and the excess loss of eddy-current component under 50 Hz magnetic field. The validity of the proposed dynamic vector hysteresis model is verified by comparing it with the experimental results under various 50 Hz magnetic field conditions.

The teaching reform of higher mathematics has been paid much attention and achieved a lot of achievements. But people have not paid enough attention to the exercises and homework of higher mathematics. The exercises and homework of higher mathematics should not be ignored. It is an important aspect of teaching and learning of higher mathematics. The traditional higher mathematics homework is the students’ personal operation to do the exercises in the textbook after class. Practice has proved that these exercises are very necessary, but it is far from enough for homework to be limited to such exercises. In order to stimulate students’ interest in learning, encourage their confidence in learning and strengthen the spirit of cooperation among students, the structural design under the background of information is mainly adopted in enriching the forms of higher mathematics homework.

This paper presents an improved identification algorithm of the scalar play model, and suggests a novel vector play model to describe the vector hysteretic behavior of a nonoriented electrical steel sheet (ESS) under rotating magnetic fields. The proposed identification algorithm gives much better numerical accuracy than a conventional one by assigning more play operators than the measured asymmetric minor loops. The vector-shape function of the suggested vector play model consists of two scalar shape functions, which are independently identified by using measured hysteresis loops under alternating magnetic fields along rolling and transverse direction of ESS, respectively. The vector play model, furthermore, employs a nonlinear coefficient, which is a function of the magnitude and direction of magnetic flux density, to increase the numerical accuracy. The validity of the suggested vector play model is verified by comparing it with experimental results under various magnetic-field conditions.

This paper proposes a new measuring system and an improved model for magnetostriction characteristics of a highly grain-oriented electric steel sheet (HGO-ESS) whose magnetic domains are bigger in size and higher in the degree of alignment than those of a grain-oriented one. The measured data of anisotropic magnetostriction characteristics of the HGO-ESS, through an improved model that has its theoretical basis on the mechanical elasticity, are included in the finite-element analysis of magnetostriction force of a power transformer. The effectiveness of the measuring system and improved magnetostriction model is validated by comparing with the experimentally measured results over a 30 MVA power transformer model.

This paper proposes a new Wave Energy Converter (WEC) extremum-seeking control method using Flower Pollination Algorithm (FPA) to achieve the maximum power absorption. This method can absorb the maximum power from the wave energy as well as the reduced Power Peak-to-Average Ratio (PPAR).

After binding by acetylcholine released from a motor neuron, a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor at the neuromuscular junction produces a localized end-plate potential, which leads to muscle contraction. Improper turnover and renewal of acetylcholine receptors contributes to the pathogenesis of myasthenia gravis. In the present study, we demonstrate that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress contributes to acetylcholine receptor degradation in C2C12 myocytes. We further show that ER stress promotes acetylcholine receptor endocytosis and lysosomal degradation, which was dampened by blocking endocytosis or treating with lysosome inhibitor. Knockdown of ER stress proteins inhibited acetylcholine receptor endocytosis and degradation, while rescue assay restored its endocytosis and degradation, confirming the effects of ER stress on promoting endocytosis-mediated degradation of junction acetylcholine receptors. Thus, our studies identify ER stress as a factor promoting acetylcholine receptor degradation through accelerating endocytosis in muscle cells. Blocking ER stress and/or endocytosis might provide a novel therapeutic approach for myasthenia gravis.

To solve the problems which happened in Mobile IPv6 fast handover such as handover latency, high packet loss and other, we propose a mobility management model called ESMIPv6. The model in SMIP basis is based on the user moves; the model created the user moves curve to forecast the user mobility model, while simplifying the structure of the SMIP. The design goal is to reduce the handover latency by forecasting the user moves, so as to eliminate the connection is interrupted and the signaling load minimum.
