Information has two aspects. One aspect is the objective one; another aspect is the subjective one. Shannon has discussed the objective aspect of information in information theory. But the subjective aspect of information has not been fully discussed. Someone use "Bayesian approaches" ...

Mechanical failure modes leading to cracks or breeches in proton exchange membrane fuel cells are driven by mechanical forces associated with swelling from water uptake and shrinkage from dehumidification. To determine the magnitude of compressive mechanical stress imposed by water swelling in a pro...

In this paper, three partitioned-stator (PS) machines, namely the PS flux-switching DC-field (PS-FSDC) machine, the PS-FS hybrid-excitation (PS-FSHE) machine, and the flux adjuster FS permanent-magnet (FA-FSPM) machine are proposed. With different flux-regulating mechanisms, all three proposed machi...

As the world's largest developing country, China must face the problem of managing municipal solid waste, and the challenge of organic waste disposal is even more serious. Considering the characteristics of traditional waste disposal technologies and the subsequent secondary pollution, anaerobic dig...

In this paper, the case of a battery charger for electric vehicles based on a wireless power transmission is addressed. The specificity of every stage of the overall system is presented. Based on calculated and measured results, relevant capacitive compensations of the transformer and models are sug...
