Abstract: A bipole power transmission scheme with two independent converts, two power feed and one return conduit. During operation of the bipole power transmission scheme under abnormal conditions, when a return conduit is faulty and unable to provide a return current path, each converter controller is programmed to monitor the first power feed in the first transmission conduit and the second power feed in the second transmission conduit and, if the first power feed in the first transmission conduit and the second power feed in the second transmission conduit differ from one another, at least one converter controller modifies the power infeed from its corresponding power source to reduce the difference between the first power feed and the second power feed.

Abstract: A converter station, for a bipole power transmission scheme, includes a first voltage source converter and a second source converter. Each converters have a first terminal as transmission conduit and a second terminal as a return conduit. The second terminal of the return conduit of the first converter is electrically connected to the first terminal of the transmission conduit of the second converter as being a same terminal. Both voltage source converters also includes at least one converter limb which extends between the first and second terminals of each converters. The or each converter limb includes first and second limb portions that are separated by a corresponding first and second AC terminal which is for connection to a respective phase of a first or second AC network.

Abstract: A bipole power transmission scheme includes a first converter station positioned in-use remote from a second converter station, and first and second transmission conduits to in-use interconnect the first converter station with the second converter station and thereby permit the first converter station to transmit power to the second converter station. The first converter station includes a first power converter, a second power converter, and a converter station controller which is programmed to selectively transition the bipole power transmission scheme into an asymmetrical monopole configuration, while maintaining the transfer of power from both the first and second power sources.

Abstract: A system includes plural, different sensors configured to be operably connected to a first vehicle. The sensors obtain status data indicative of a state of a cooling system of the first vehicle. The system includes a digital twin system having processors configured to modify the status data having sampling rates or resolutions that differ such that the status data that is modified has a common sampling rate resolution as that of other data. The processors create a digital twin matrix of the status data. The digital twin matrix is indicative of the state of the cooling system. The processors also determine a health score of the cooling system or simulate operation of the cooling system based on the digital twin matrix. The digital twin system is configured to change or control actual operation of the cooling system based on the health score or the operation that is simulated.

Abstract: A method of forming a photonic crystal (PhC) structure and a PhC structure formed by such method. The method comprises forming holes in a Si-based host layer; filling the holes with a high-density plasma (HDP) deposited Si-based oxide and such that a surface of the Si-based host layer is directly covered with the Si-based oxide; performing at least a selective wet etching step for etching the Si-based oxide such that a surface of the resulting PhC structure is planarized.

Abstract: A system for dynamically allocating resources in a computing grid is provided. The system comprises a resource management component, a service level agreement (SLA) management component and a job scheduling component. The resource management component is configured to determine availability of a set of resources in a computing grid, for executing job requests submitted by users of the computing grid. The SLA management component is configured to manage service level agreements (SLAs) corresponding to the users and perform a negotiation of resources for the users submitting the job requests, in real-time, based on a resource steerability attribute associated with the job requests. The job-scheduling component is configured to schedule the job requests for the users, based on the resource steerability attribute associated with the job requests. The job requests comprise at least one of a job having batch characteristics and a job having interactive characteristics.

Abstract: A method for selecting a target list of customers for making cross sell offers to, for a financial product is provided. The method includes obtaining customer-level information related to one or more members from a historical database. The method then includes building one or more response models and one or more profit models for one or more subsets of members, using the customer-level information. Then, the method includes generating one or more response scores and one or more profit scores for one or more members from a target population, using the one or more response models and the one or more profit models. Finally, the method includes determining a target list of customers for making cross-sell offers to, based on the one or more response scores and the one or more profit scores using an optimization methodology.
