Research on fault diagnosis of amorphous alloy transformers by using vibration signals and a PSO-optimized full-process WPT-SVM model by Daosheng Liu, Wentao Yang, Longsheng Liu, Zhe Zhao

“…The prominent vibration characteristics of amorphous alloy transformer (AMT) make it possible to apply the vibration method for real-time fault monitoring of AMT. Therefore, in order to solve the AMT vibration monitoring problem and enhance the diagnostic efficiency, this study proposes an AMT fault diagnosis model based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) to optimize the parameters of wavelet packet transform (WPT) and support vector machine (SVM).The optimal vibration signal acquisition point is determined by finite element analysis to ensure high signal quality. …”

Compensation of Dynamic Phase Error in the Formation of Orthogonal Components of Input Signals in Microprocessor Protections by F. A. Romaniuk, Yu. V. Rumiantsev, V. Yu. Rumiantsev, I. V. Novash

“…The reduction of the influence of these factors on the behavior of measuring elements is ensured by the use of high-speed shapers to isolate orthogonal components, as well as by compensating for dynamic phase error. The proposed method of forming orthogonal components of a signal with compensation for dynamic phase error is based on obtaining orthogonal Fourier components, followed by determining from their samples the calculated components that coincide or are shifted in phase relative to the orthogonal Fourier components, respectively, in steady-state and transient modes. …”

Phasage des travaux et organisations transitoires : quels rôles pour l’ergonome ? by François Daniellou, Jacques Escouteloup, Joffrey Beaujouan

“…Ergonomics has often focused on understanding the shift from Situation A to Situation B in an architectural context but has devoted less attention to the intermediate stages between A and B and their impact on occupants’ health and the efficiency of the establishment. This paper examines various examples of this type of project and suggests how ergonomists may help to reconcile continued operation and building work by: (1) encouraging the two professional groups to meet and discuss the issues, (2) using simulations to determine the broad outlines of the schedule, (3) helping occupants to define temporary organisation methods and (4) adjusting those forms of organisation to major stages in the schedule.…”
