    Book SynopsisThe acute energy problems facing China today are characterized by their own histories and realities. Some have come about because of China's energy endowment and stage of development, while others have been created by a combination of domestic and global factors.Trade ReviewPraise for Electric Power and Energy in China: “The Broad Energy Outlook approach tries to place the complex Chinese energy problem in a multi-angled and global prospective so that China will stop struggling within its narrowly defined and inward-looking supply-demand rigidity on energy. Overall, I find Electric Power and Energy in China an excellent book with significant academic value. It provides an essential reference for academics, policy makers and students who have a strong interest in China’s economy and energy development. The data included in this book and Liu’s personal experiences and expertise as chairman of China’s, and indeed the world’s, largest electricity distribution company are highly informative and valuable for both insiders and outsiders of the Chinese energy and electricity industries.” – Shujie Yao, Head of School of Contemporary Chinese Studies, Professor of Economics and Chinese Sustainable Development, University of Nottingham “Zhenya Liu’s Electric Power and Energy in China points out that the main challenges in China today are in meeting the growing energy demand of a large population in a fast growing, emerging economy. The current main source of energy supply in the country is coal, however, all technologies are needed to secure an adequate supply of energy. Accordingly, Liu does not focus on one technology; he provides an overview of Chinese perspectives on all available options. Electric Power and Energy in China gives an interesting insight into the Chinese energy challenge and the energy system – not from an outsider’s perspective but from the core. As head of China’s Energy Commission, Zhenya Liu knows what he is writing about. The book is valuable not only from an energy economics perspective but also because it gives a comprehensive overview of the Chinese energy system and its economic policies.” – Dr. Hubertus Bardt,

  • Multiterminal DirectCurrent Grids

    Wiley Multiterminal DirectCurrent Grids

    Book SynopsisA generic DC grid model that is compatible with the standard AC system stability model is presented and used to analyse the interaction between the DC grid and the host AC systems. A multi-terminal DC (MTDC) grid interconnecting multiple AC systems and offshore energy sources (e.g. wind farms) across the nations and continents would allow effective sharing of intermittent renewable resources and open market operation for secure and cost-effective supply of electricity. However, such DC grids are unprecedented with no operational experience. Despite lots of discussions and specific visions for setting up such MTDC grids particularly in Europe, none has yet been realized in practice due to two major technical barriers: Lack of proper understanding about the interaction between a MTDC grid and the surrounding AC systems.

    Book SynopsisDemonstrates techniques which will allow rewiring rates of over 95%, enabling adoption of deep sub-micron chips for industrial applications Logic synthesis is an essential part of the modern digital IC design process in semi-conductor industry. This book discusses a logic synthesis technique called rewiring and its latest technical advancement in term of rewirability. Rewiring technique has surfaced in academic research since 1993 and there is currently no book available on the market which systematically and comprehensively discusses this rewiring technology. The authors cover logic transformation techniques with concentration on rewiring. For many decades, the effect of wiring on logic structures has been ignored due to an ideal view of wires and their negligible role in the circuit performance. However in today's semiconductor technology wiring is the major player in circuit performance degeneration and logic synthesis engines can be improved to deal with thiTable of ContentsList of Figures ix List of Tables xiii Preface xv Introduction xvii 1 Preliminaries 1 1.1 Boolean Circuits 1 1.2 Redundancy and Stuck-at Faults 4 1.3 Automatic Test Pattern Generation (ATPG) 6 1.4 Dominators 6 1.5 Mandatory Assignments and Recursive Learning 7 1.6 Graph Theory and Boolean Circuits 8 References 10 2 Concept of Logic Rewiring 11 2.1 What is Rewiring? 11 2.2 ATPG-based Rewiring Techniques 12 2.2.1 Add-First 12 2.2.2 Delete-First 18 2.3 Non-ATPG-based Rewiring Techniques 24 2.3.1 Graph-based Alternate Wiring (GBAW) 24 2.3.2 SPFD 25 2.4 Why are Rewiring Techniques Important? 31 References 33 3 Add-First and Non-ATPG-Based Rewiring Techniques 37 3.1 Redundancy Addition and Removal (RAR) 37 3.1.1 RAMBO 37 3.1.2 REWIRE 38 3.1.3 RAMFIRE 41 3.1.4 Comparison Between RAR-Based Rewiring Techniques 43 3.2 Node-Based Network Addition and Removal (NAR) 43 3.2.1 Node Merging 43 3.2.2 Node Addition and Removal 48 3.3 Other Rewiring Techniques 51 3.3.1 SPFD-Based Rewiring 51 References 65 4 Delete-First Rewiring Techniques 67 4.1 IRRA 69 4.1.1 Destination of Alternative Wires 71 4.1.2 Source of Alternative Wires 72 4.2 ECR 76 4.2.1 Destination of Alternative Wires 80 4.2.2 Source of Alternative Wires 85 4.2.3 Overview of the Approach of Error-Cancellation-Based Rewiring 86 4.2.4 Complexity Analysis of ECR 87 4.2.5 Comparison Between ECR and Other Resynthesis Techniques 90 4.2.6 Experimental Result 92 4.3 FECR 96 4.3.1 Error Flow Graph Construction 97 4.3.2 Destination Node Identification 98 4.3.3 Source Node Identification 102 4.3.4 ECR is a Special Case of FECR 104 4.3.5 Complexity Analysis of FECR 105 4.3.6 Experimental Result 105 4.4 Cut-Based Error Cancellation Rewiring 107 4.4.1 Preliminaries 107 4.4.2 Error Frontier 109 4.4.3 Cut-Based Error Cancellation Rewiring 117 4.4.4 Verification of Alternative Wires 121 4.4.5 Complexity Analysis of CECR 122 4.4.6 Relationship Between ECR, FECR, and CECR 122 4.4.7 Extending CECR for n-to-m Rewiring 123 4.4.8 Speedup for CECR 124 4.4.9 Experimental Results 125 References 129 5 Applications 133 5.1 Area Reduction 133 5.1.1 Preliminaries 134 5.1.2 Our Methodology (“Long tail” vs “Bump tail” Curves) 135 5.1.3 Details of our Approach 140 5.1.4 Experimental Results 143 5.2 Postplacement Optimization 145 5.2.1 Wire-Length-Driven Rewiring-Based Postplacement Optimization 145 5.2.2 Timing-Driven Rewiring-Based Postplacement Optimization 151 5.3 ECO Timing Optimization 158 5.3.1 Preliminaries 160 5.3.2 Nego-Rout Operation 161 5.3.3 Path-Restructuring Operation 164 5.3.4 Experimental Results 166 5.4 Area Reduction in FPGA Technology Mapping 167 5.4.1 Incremental Logic Resynthesis (ILR): Depth-Oriented Mode 170 5.4.2 Incremental Logic Resynthesis (ILR): Area-Oriented Mode 171 5.4.3 Experimental Results 173 5.4.4 Conclusion 183 5.5 FPGA Postlayout Routing Optimization 184 5.5.1 Optimization by Alternative Functions 185 5.5.2 Optimization with Mapping-to-Routing Logic Rewirings 187 5.5.3 Optimization by SPFD-Based Rewiring 198 5.6 Logic Synthesis for Low Power Using Clock Gating and Rewiring 199 5.6.1 Mechanism of Clock Gating 199 5.6.2 Rewiring-Based Optimization 203 References 207 6 Summary 211 Index 213

    John Wiley & Sons Inc Engineering Justice

    Book SynopsisShows how the engineering curriculum can be a site for rendering social justice visible in engineering, for exploring complex socio-technical interplays inherent in engineering practice, and for enhancing teaching and learning Using social justice as a catalyst for curricular transformation, Engineering Justice presents an examination of how politics, culture, and other social issues are inherent in the practice of engineering. It aims to align engineering curricula with socially just outcomes, increase enrollment among underrepresented groups, and lessen lingering gender, class, and ethnicity gaps by showing how the power of engineering knowledge can be explicitly harnessed to serve the underserved and address social inequalities.

  • Power ElectronicsEnabled Autonomous Power Systems

    John Wiley & Sons Inc Power ElectronicsEnabled Autonomous Power Systems

    Book SynopsisPower systems worldwide are going through a paradigm shift from centralized generation to distributed generation. This book presents the SYNDEM (i.e., synchronized and democratized) grid architecture and its technical routes to harmonize the integration of renewable energy sources, electric vehicles, storage systems, and flexible loads, with the synchronization mechanism of synchronous machines, to enable autonomous operation of power systems, and to promote energy freedom. This is a game changer for the grid. It is the sort of breakthrough like the touch screen in smart phones that helps to push an industry from one era to the next, as reported by Keith Schneider, a New York Times correspondent since 1982. This book contains an introductory chapter and additional 24 chapters in five parts: Theoretical Framework, First-Generation VSM (virtual synchronous machines), Second-Generation VSM, Third-Generation VSM, and Case Studies. Most of the chapters include experimental results. As the first book of its kind for power electronics-enabled autonomous power systems, it introduces a holistic architecture applicable to both large and small power systems, including aircraft power systems, ship power systems, microgrids, and supergrids provides latest research to address the unprecedented challenges faced by power systems and to enhance grid stability, reliability, security, resiliency, and sustainability demonstrates how future power systems achieve harmonious interaction, prevent local faults from cascading into wide-area blackouts, and operate autonomously with minimized cyber-attacks highlights the significance of the SYNDEM concept for power systems and beyond Power Electronics-Enabled Autonomous Power Systems is an excellent book for researchers, engineers, and students involved in energy and power systems, electrical and control engineering, and power electronics. The SYNDEM theoretical framework chapter is also suitable for policy makers, legislators, entrepreneurs, commissioners of utility commissions, energy and environmental agency staff, utility personnel, investors, consultants, and attorneys.Table of ContentsList of Figures xix List of Tables xxxiii Foreword xxxv Preface xxxvii Acknowledgments xxxix About the Author xli List of Abbreviations xliii 1

    Book SynopsisMost existing robust design books address design for static systems, or achieve robust design from experimental data via the Taguchi method. Little work considers model information for robust design particularly for the dynamic system. This book covers robust design for both static and dynamic systems using the nominal model information or the hybrid model/data information, and also integrates design with control under a large operating region. This design can handle strong nonlinearity and more uncertainties from model and parameters.Table of ContentsPREFACE xi ACKNOWLEDGMENTS xiii I BACKGROUND AND FUNDAMENTALS 1 INTRODUCTION 3 1.1

  • Communication Acoustics

    John Wiley & Sons Inc Communication Acoustics

    Book SynopsisIn communication acoustics, the communication channel consists of a sound source, a channel (acoustic and/or electric) and finally the receiver: the human auditory system, a complex and intricate system that shapes the way sound is heard. Thus, when developing techniques in communication acoustics, such as in speech, audio and aided hearing, it is important to understand the timefrequencyspace resolution of hearing. This book facilitates the reader's understanding and development of speech and audio techniques based on our knowledge of the auditory perceptual mechanisms by introducing the physical, signal-processing and psychophysical background to communication acoustics. It then provides a detailed explanation of sound technologies where a human listener is involved, including audio and speech techniques, sound quality measurement, hearing aids and audiology. Key features: Explains perceptually-based audio: the authors take a detailed but accessible engineeringTable of ContentsAbout the Authors xix Preface xxi Preface to the Unfinished Manuscript of the
