Determination of the current-voltage characteristics of concentrator systems by using different adapted conventional techniques
(2016)The modelling of the current–voltage characteristics of HCPV (high concentrator photovoltaic) modules is fundamental for the design, monitoring and energy prediction of HCPV systems and power plants. However, the modelling ... -
Towards a cognitive model of human mobility : an investigation of tactile perception for use in mobility devices
(2016)Human mobility is one of the most complex cognitive tasks, especially in the absence of the sight (case of visually impaired or robots). This paper investigates the contributions of the tactile modality to execution of ... -
Power quality improvement by interleaving unequal switching converters
