Preface


  • The development of renewable energy has resulted in a gradual increase in the application of solar energy. However, hotspots have been identified as a significant failure of solar panels after pr ... Read More

  • Wind turbines are often deployed in harsh and dynamic environments, rendering their gearboxes susceptible to unexpected faults that can result in significant downtime. Timely and accurate fault d ... Read More

  • In this paper, a charger with the functions of voltage reflex and equalization is proposed. The proposed charger for series-connected lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries has the following adva ... Read More

  • In metropolitan rail systems, passengers must board and alight expeditiously, rendering the precise control of door opening and closing times imperative for operational efficiency and safety. Acc ... Read More

  • In this paper, we propose an improved incremental conductance (IINC) method with automatic step size adjustment for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) in photovoltaic module arrays (PVMAs). The ... Read More

  • Amid declining birth rates and a global labor shortage, automated electrical testing has become essential for industrial development. However, many factories face technological lock-in due to lon ... Read More

  • In this study, SrBi₄Ti₄O₁₅ (SBT) thin films were deposited on TiN/Si substrates by the sol–gel method, forming a metal–insulator–metal (MIM)-structured resistive random access memor ... Read More

  • Power capacitors are essential reactive power compensation devices in distribution systems, improving power factor, enhancing voltage quality, and reducing feeder losses. However, factors such as ... Read More

  • The development of advanced soft robotics is crucial for delicate medical operations, as traditional rigid robots lack the flexibility required for such procedures. However, the application of no ... Read More

  • A planar Marchand balun with double-layer coupled lines on an FR4 substrate is proposed. The double-layer coupled-line structure mitigates the low-coupling issue associated with the substrate’s ... Read More

  • A stator resistance parameter identification was proposed for the speed estimation stator-field-orientation-controlled (SFOC) induction motor (IM) drive. The decoupled SFOC IM drive was formulate ... Read More

  • With the increasing prevalence of Computer, Communication, and Consumer electronic devices product use and its impact on hearing, as well as the growing importance of sustainability concepts, in ... Read More

  • In train door control systems, the accuracy of door opening and closing time directly affects operational efficiency and passenger safety. However, in legacy rolling stock, limitations imposed by ... Read More

  • We present a Taiwanese Sign Language (TSL) recognition and natural sentence generation system that focuses on continuous sign language recognition, in contrast to most existing approaches that pr ... Read More

  • SrBi4Ti4O15 (SBT) ferroelectric thin films were fabricated by a sol–gel spin-coating method and evaluated for resistive switching behavior in metal–insulator–metal (MIM) resistive random ac ... Read More
