In this paper, considering photovoltaic/battery sourced microgrids with grid-forming droop control in the load interface converter for power management, two alternative converter topologies for the battery are tested: dual boost interleaved converter and three-phase interleaved converter. These topologies are based on the conventional bidirectional buckboost converter and their employment is to allow a reduction in component sizing, improvement in power quality, and higher output voltage. Analysis of the operation of these converters in different operation modes of the microgrid is carried out, including battery normal charging, battery normal discharging, battery charging limit, and maximum state-of-charge, through simulations in MATLAB/Simulink environment. Results suggest advantages such as reduced stress on switches and battery charging current ripple for the two interleaved converters tested and the potential implementation of higher output voltage for the dual boost converter.

This working-in-progress paper aims to present a three-dimensional reconstruction using aerial images in different environments. The experiments were conducted with aircraft in both external and internal settings, starting with image acquisition, followed by the application of specific photogrammetry software—both commercial and open-source—and concluding with a qualitative evaluation of the results.

Memory errors can cause crashes and data loss, which are unacceptable for various computing systems, mainly large servers. Memory controllers can mitigate these errors by employing an Error Correction Code (ECC) in the data write and read flows. This work proposes a fault-tolerant mechanism that acts as a memory controller's encoding and decoding manager. This mechanism adapts the ECC for each memory block based on the efficacies of the ECCs available in the controller and the error rate captured at runtime. Consequently, memory blocks with a high error rate can be recoded to a high efficacy ECC and vice versa. Experimental results show that our proposal achieves high error correction efficacy with high energy efficiency.

Fiber optic-based sensors have experimented with significant technological advances in the last two decades. Distributed acoustic sensors represent their most recent iteration. This sensing technology become all the cable length into a sensor, a favorable condition for seismic studies. Data preprocessing is a crucial step in this study, in which the seismic signals captured by optical interrogators must be converted to the apparent velocity of particles that sensitized the fiber. Amongst the main conversion algorithms, the ones based on Fourier Transforms are more adopted at large-scale surveys. This paper presents an algorithm implementation for this conversion, based on the 2D Fourier Transform, in a small-scale laboratory investigation. The results are favorable and show that it is a possible use. It brings more definition to individualizing first break time arrivals, equalizing signal amplitude, and aligning oscillation peaks, essential parameters for applying reflections and refraction methods in seismic studies.

The objective of this project is to explore the applicability of a bioinspired approach, derived from the behavior of the Physarum polycephalum fungus, in optimizing trajectory navigation for mobile robot structures. The precise organism Physarum, which has the capability to quick locate efficient paths among factors in complicated environments, serves as a herbal version for constructing inspired trajectory algorithms. In this project, the development of a trajectory set of rules is proposed, that’s as compared to conventional trajectory introduction techniques, aiming to introduce a novel approach to cellular robot navigation. This work is presented thru a aggregate of experimental observations and computational simulations that show the effectiveness of this bioinspired approach in trajectory choice. As a end result, an set of rules is developed that mimics the behavior of the Physarum and, similarly to conventional navigation algorithms, paves the manner for research and improvement.
