Abstract: Technology is disclosed herein for detecting leaky word lines in a non-volatile storage system. The exact leaky word line may be located very rapidly using a divide and conquer approach. First a determination may be made whether at least one word line in a group such as any of the word lines in a block is leaky. This initial determination can be made very quickly. If no word line in the group is leaky, the search can end. However, responsive to a determination that at least one word line in the group is leaky, a divide and conquer search may be performed in which the group of the word lines is repeatedly divided into smaller sub-groups with selected smaller sub-groups tested for a short circuit until the leaky word line is located.

Abstract: Provided is a risk assessment method for power transmission line windage yaw flashover. The method includes determining the influence factors of power transmission line windage yaw flashover and setting risk assessment indexes according to the influence factors (S101); generating the standard cloud of the risk assessment indexes according to the incident occurrence probabilities and the consequence levels of the risk assessment indexes (S103); scoring the influence factors according to the risk assessment indexes and generating the risk cloud of the risk assessment indexes according to scoring results (S105); and performing a two-dimensional similarity calculation on the risk cloud and the standard cloud to obtain two-dimensional similarity between the risk cloud and the standard cloud and determining the risk level of the power transmission line windage yaw flashover according to the two-dimensional similarity (S107).
