Since their development in 1943, artificial neural networks were extended into applications
in many fields. Last twenty years have brought their introduction into winery, where they …

Current energy policies are encouraging the connection to the grid of power generation
based on low-polluting technologies, mainly those using renewable sources with distribution …

Surge protective devices, SPDs, improve the reliability of power systems by mitigating the
risk of equipment failure due to im**ing overvoltages. The role of SPDs is more …

The behavior of a supercapacitor is a complex and nonlinear function of its current rate,
temperature, chemistry and history, and hence cannot easily be determined. In this study, we …

This paper proposes an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model using a Multi-Stage method
to optimize the configuration of an External Lightning Protection System (ELPS) and …

In this paper, a mathematical model on the grounding resistance of vertical electrode is
proposed. The proposed mathematical model is modeled with consideration of the effects of …

The condition of the substation grounding grid is vital for the safety of the people. Inadequate
grounding may cause failures in major substation's equipment, as well as in control …

This work analyzes the impact of the physical factors (frequency effect, water content, and
porosity level) on the voltages developed along the wind turbine (WT) subjected to lightning …

The topology and breakpoints of the grounding grid will directly affect its working
performance. This paper proposed a resistivity reconstruction method based on magnetic …

Using previous measurements as a reference, correction factors are used to analytically
estimate seasonal changes in the soil resistivity and seasonal changes in the resistance of a …
