For the gray attributes of the equipment program and its difficulty to carry out the quantitative assessment of the equipment program information, the gray relation projection method is simply reviewed. Combining the super-data envelopment analysis (DEA) model and the gray system theory, a new super...

AC motors are the main workhorses in process industries. Their malfunction may not only lead to repair or replacement of the motor, but also cause significant financial losses due to unexpected process downtime. Reliable thermal protection of AC motors is crucial for reducing the motor failure rate ...

This paper overviews the silicon carbide (SiC) technology. The focus is on the benefits of SiC based power electronics for converters and systems, as well as their ability in enabling new applications. The challenges and research trends on the design and application of SiC power electronics are also...

In the traditional data envelopment analysis (DEA) structure, the efficiency score for one decision making unit (DMU) is calculated by measuring the distance of the evaluated DMU to the best practice frontier. Recent researches have provided the reasonability of considering the worst practice fronti...

It is essential to design a protocol to allow sensor nodes to attest to their trustworthiness for mission-critical applications based on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). However, it is a challenge to evaluate the trustworthiness without appropriate hardware support. Hence, we present a hardware-base...
