July-August 2012 Imagine you fly home from vacation with your one-and-ahalf-year-old son who is traveling for free as a “lap child.” In the airport parking lot, you put him into his forwardfacing car seat, where he sits much more contentedly than he did in the rear-facing one that was mandatory until his first birthday. After he falls asleep on the way home, you transfer him to his crib without...

The purpose of this paper is to present a new approach based on the Least Squares Error method for estimating the unknown parameters of the nonlinear 3rd order synchronous generator model. The proposed method uses the mathematical relationships between the machine parameters and on-line input/output measurements to estimate the parameters of the nonlinear state space model. The field voltage is...

Accurate estimates of network parameters are essential for modeling, monitoring, and control in power distribution systems. In this paper, we develop a physics-informed graphical learning algorithm to estimate three-phase Our proposed uses only readily available smart meter data the series resistance reactance primary line segments. We first parametric physics-based model replace black-box deep...

Accurate characterization of the rheological behavior non-Newtonian fluids is critical in a wide range industries as it governs process efficiency, safety, and end-product quality. When fluid may vary substantially over relatively short period time, desirable to measure its viscous properties on more continuous basis than relying spot measurements made with viscometer few samples. An attractive...
