The influences of hydraulic retention time, temperature and free buffer on the performance of short-cut denitrifying microbial fuel cell were investigated after it was successfully started up using nitrite as the cathodic electron acceptor. The results revealed that a power density of...

A model-based dynamic multi-parameter method for peak power estimation is proposed for batteries and battery management systems (BMSs) used in hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). The available power must be accurately calculated in order to not damage the battery by over charging or over...

Wind speed prediction is important to protect the security of wind power integration. The performance of hybrid methods is always better than that of single ones in wind speed prediction. Based on Time Series, Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and Kalman Filter (KF), in the study two hybrid...

Wind speed forecasting is important for the security of wind power integration. Based on the theories of wavelet, wavelet packet, time series analysis and artificial neural networks, three hybrid models [Wavelet Packet-BFGS, Wavelet Packet-ARIMA-BFGS and Wavelet-BFGS] are proposed to predict the...
