  • Publication number: 20200333384
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for calculating a transient overvoltage at a direct current (DC) sending end by taking into account a dynamic process of a control system. First, a first reactive power consumed by a converter station is calculated based on system operation parameters and a DC closed-loop transfer function. Then, a transient voltage change rate is calculated based on the first reactive power and a second reactive power on an alternating current (AC) side. Finally, the transient voltage change rate is iterated to obtain the transient overvoltage. According to the technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, the transient overvoltage is determined based on the system operation parameters and the closed-loop transfer function of a DC line, the dynamic process of control parameter change caused by a control action of the control system after a fault occurs can be determined by the closed-loop transfer function of the DC line, whereby the transient overvoltage can be determined.

  • Patent number: 10783406
    Abstract: A method for detecting structural surface cracks based on image features, support vector machines and Bayesian data fusion, including: 1) acquisition of a video of a structural surface and establishment of an image library; 2) calculation of texture features of the image frames by local binary patterns; 3) scanning and grouping for image patches of cracks on the image frames using two-stage support vector machine; 4) Bayesian data fusion and decision. The video image detection acquires images of many areas where human beings are difficult to reach; computers are adopted to identify cracks on surfaces of the structural elements, which can greatly reduce the identification workload and labor cost, and increase the crack detection rate. The invention has a better adaptability to the light strength on the structural surface, thus providing better identification for cracks.
