Gao Xueping,Zhang Yan,Ji Feng,Fu Lijun 대한전기학회 2022 Journal of Electrical Engineering & Technology Vol.17 No.5

High pulsed power loads (HPPLs) are highly non-linear and can cause signifi cant stability and power quality issues in a microgrid. Developing alternative methods for controlling and analyzing the microgrid with multiple HPPLs will provide insight into tradeoff s that can be made during the design phase. In this paper, a demand side management strategy of HPPLs in a microgrid is formulated. Firstly, the HPPLs are divided into energy storage connected high power pulse loads (EHPPLs) and direct connected high power pulse loads (DHPPLs) according to the power use of the back-end loads, and the energy management models of both the EHPPLs and the DHPPLs are built. Then the demand side management strategy to minimize the impacts of running HPPLs is proposed. Finally, three typical cases are studied to verify the fl exibility and eff ectiveness of the proposed method. The simulation and experiment results indicate that the proposed strategy can eff ectively reduce the peak power demand of the HPPLs, thus reducing the impact on the microgrid

SOC balance‑based decentralized control strategy for hybrid energy storage in integrated power systems

Xueping Gao,Lijun Fu,Yan Zhang,Feng Ji 전력전자학회 2022 JOURNAL OF POWER ELECTRONICS Vol.22 No.12

The hybrid energy storage systems (HESSs) in vessel integrated power systems can support pulse load and improve system stability. However, the unbalanced SOC of different energy storage devices can cause over-charge and over-discharge which damages the energy storage devices and affects the stable operation of the entire system, especially when there are multiple groups of HESSs. Therefore, a decentralized control strategy for the HESSs in integrated power systems (IPSs) based on extended droop control combined with SOC balance control is proposed in this paper. In the proposed strategy, SOC recovery control is introduced to the virtual capacitance droop coefficient of the supercapacitor, and SOC equalization control is introduced to the virtual resistance droop coefficient of the lithium battery to adjust the output characteristics of the HESS according to the SOC. Then the frequency response characteristics are analyzed and the stability of the system is calculated. Finally, the hardware in loop simulation is conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed strategy. Comparisons show that the proposed strategy can compensate for the pulse load according to the responding characteristics of the HESS and achieve SOC balance between different energy storage devices under various working conditions.

Ruichang Gao,Xueping Feng,Wenwen Li,Li Yuan,Jing Ge,Daoli Lu,Bin Chen,Gang Yu 한국식품과학회 2016 Food Science and Biotechnology Vol.25 No.1

Changes in white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) protein during thermal denaturation were studied using Raman spectroscopy and isotopic H/D exchange. Denaturation of shrimp protein began after heating for 10 min at 50oC. A decrease in the percentage of α-helices accompanied by an increase in the percentage of β-sheets occurred while the total percentage of disordered structures increased. With extension of the exchange time, the relative intensity of the O-D bond increased, accompanied by a higher relative O-D bond intensity for heated shrimp, compared with unheated shrimp. H/D exchange revealed a higher rate of deuteration kinetics in heated shrimp than for unheated shrimp, especially during the first 2 h, consistent with water loss from denatured white shrimp protein. Physical property changes in muscle tissue can be caused by changes in hydrogen bonding and hydrophobicity during thermal processes.

Optimal Operation Schedule Strategy of High-power Pulsed Loads in Shipboard Power System

Zhang Yan,Ji Feng,Gao Xueping,Ma Fan,Hu Qi 대한전기학회 2024 Journal of Electrical Engineering & Technology Vol.19 No.4

With the vigorous development of the scientifi c and technological revolution, new military and engineering loads with high power and pulse characteristics are becoming reality for the shipboard power system (SPS) application. These loads are usually called high-power pulsed loads (HPPLs) because of their high peak power, low average power and short cycle time. The HPPLs can cause voltage drop and even system instability to the SPS, thus bringing severe challenges to their power supplying system. To address these issues, an optimal operation schedule of HPPLs in SPS is studied in this paper. Firstly, the models of HPPLs for SPS power optimization are proposed based on the real back-end load connection way of them. Then the mixed integer programming problem aiming at maximizing the operation effi ciency of the HPPLs within the SPS support capability is constructed. Finally, some typical cases are studied to verify the fl exibility and eff ectiveness of the proposed strategy. The results indicate that the proposed strategy can eff ectively maximize the operational effi ciency of HPPLs in the SPS, and the superiority becomes more obvious as the number of HPPLs increases.

Maoer Mountain National Forest Ecological Station is located in Heilongjiang Province. By using the statistical spatial analysis method, which showed that the soil mites community and species richness of mites spatial heterogeneity. Also, which is illustrated that the spatial effect relationship with the environmental factors. The results of crossvariogram and simple Mantel test showed that positive relationships between soil mite communities, specific mite species and environmental factors were detected. Among the environmental factors, soil pH showed significant affects on spatial heterogeneity of soil mite species in both years. When considering the relationships between soil mite species, positive correlations and specific mite species were also observed. Spatial heterogeneities of soil mite communities and most of the soil mite species were regulated by structured factors, in which environmental variables might be important drivers. Thus, it is implied that abundances of soil mite community and most of the soil mite species showed aggregated spatially heterogeneity, and significant relationship between such heterogeneity and environmental factors were detected.

A novel CHD7 variant in a chinese family with CHARGE syndrome

Shan Yanhong,Yao LingFang,Li Linli,Gao Xueping,Jiang Jinghan 한국유전학회 2024 Genes & Genomics Vol.46 No.3

Objective CHARGE syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant (AD) multi-system disorder with a broad and variable clinical manifestation and occurs in approximately 1/10,000 newborns in the world. Mutations in the CHD7 gene are the genetic cause of over 90% of patients with typical CHARGE syndrome. The present study reported a novel variant in the CHD7 gene in a Chinese family with an abnormal fetus. Methods Routine prenatal ultrasound screening showed fetal heart abnormality and left foot varus. Chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) and fetus-parent whole-exome sequencing (trio-WES) were performed to determine the genetic cause of the fetus. The candidate variant was further verified using Sanger sequencing. Results CMA analysis revealed normal results. However, WES analysis identified a de novo heterozygous variant of c.2919_2922del (NM_017780.4) on exon 11 of CHD7 gene, resulting in a premature truncation of the CHD7 protein (p.Gly975*). The variant was classified as Pathogenic (PVS1 + PS2_Moderate + PM2_Supporting) based on the ACMG guidelines. Combined with the clinical phenotype of fetal heart abnormalities, it was confirmed CHARGE syndrome. Conclusion We identified a novel heterozygous variant c.2919_2922del in CHD7 of a Chinese fetus with CHARGE syndrome, enriching the genotype-phenotype spectrum of CHD7. These results suggest that genetic testing could help facilitate prenatal diagnosis of CHARGE syndrome, thus promoting the appropriate genetic counseling.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of clonidine adhesive patch in Tourette syndrome (TS) patients with comorbid attentiondeficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).Methods This study was conducted on a sample of children and adolescents with TS who had comorbid ADHD between May 2012 and March 2015. The patients were diagnosed according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fourth Edition, and were randomly assigned to four different dose groups: 1.0 mg/week, 1.5 mg/week, 2.0 mg/week and placebo group, and the symptom was evaluated by Swanson, Nolan, and Pelham Rating Scale, Version IV (SNAP-IV) and Yale Global Tic Severity Scale scales every 2 weeks. The primary outcome was tic disorders (TD) effective rate at week 8.Results One hundred and twenty-seven TS patients with comorbid ADHD in 2.0 mg/week (n=35), 1.5 mg/week (n=27), 1.0 mg/week (n=36) and placebo groups (n=29) were included in this subgroup analysis. The TD effective rate of the 2.0 mg, 1.5 mg, and 1.0 mg groups at week 8 were significantly better than that in placebo group (85.7%, 81.5%, and 86.1% vs. 20.7%, all p<0.0001). All groups demonstrated significant improvements in SNAP-IV total scale scores compared to baseline (p=0.0004), with treatment groups showing only a trend for better performance compared to placebo group at week 8, without statistical differences (22.1±15.41, 21.3±11.96, and 21.2±12.48 vs. 26.0±13.37, p=0.3385). A total of 9 adverse reactions occurred, all recovered spontaneously without additional medication.Conclusion Clonidine adhesive patch could safely and effectively reduce the tic symptoms of TS patients with comorbid ADHD, and might be potentially helpful in the ADHD symptoms control.
