The fourth industrial revolution introduces disruptive technologies to production environments. One of these technologies are multi-agent systems (MASs), where agents virtualize machines. However, the agent's actual performances in production environments can hardly be estimated as most research has been focusing on isolated projects and specific scenarios. We address this gap by implementing a highly connected and configurable reference model with quantifiable key performance indicators (KPIs) for production scheduling and routing in single-piece workflows. Furthermore, we propose an algorithm to optimize the search of extrema in highly connected distributed systems. The benefits, limits, and drawbacks of MASs and their performances are evaluated extensively by event-based simulations against the introduced model, which acts as a benchmark. Even though the performance of the proposed MAS is, on average, slightly lower than the reference system, the increased flexibility allows it to find new solutions and deliver improved factory-planning outcomes. Our MAS shows an emerging behavior by using flexible production techniques to correct errors and compensate for bottlenecks. This increased flexibility offers substantial improvement potential. The general model in this paper allows the transfer of the results to estimate real systems or other models.
This paper presents the latest prototype of the integrated emitter turn-off thyristor concept, which potentially ranks among thyristor high-power devices like the gate turn-off thyristor and the integrated gate-commutated thyristor (IGCT). Due to modifications of the external driver stage and mechanical press-pack design optimization, this prototype allows for full device characterization. The turn-off capability was increased to 1600 A with an active silicon area of 823mm2 . This leads to a transient peak power of 672.1kW/cm² . Within this paper, measurements and concept assessment are presented and a comparison to state-of-the-art IGCT devices is provided.
The continuously growing amount of renewable sources starts compromising the stability of electrical grids. Contradictory to fossil fuel power plants, energy production of wind and photovoltaic (PV) energy is fluctuating. Although predictions have significantly improved, an outage of multi-MW offshore wind farms poses a challenging problem. One solution could be the integration of storage systems in the grid. After a short overview, this paper focuses on two exemplary battery storage systems, including the required power electronics. The grid integration, as well as the optimal usage of volatile energy reserves, is presented for a 5- kW PV system for home application, as well as for a 100- MW medium-voltage system, intended for wind farm usage. The efficiency and cost of topologies are investigated as a key parameter for large-scale integration of renewable power at medium- and low-voltage.
Das von Texas-Instruments (TI) vertriebene Interface CBL2 wird über einige TI-Grafik-Rechner (TI-92, TI-89 usw.) angesteuert. Wegen seiner Handlichkeit wird dieses System beim Unterricht in wechselnden Räumen »großen« Messwerterfassungssystemen oft vorgezogen. Das CBL2 bietet drei analoge Eingänge, die immerhin mit 10 Bit Auflösung und bis zu einer Frequenz von 50 kHz arbeiten. Weiterhin besitzt das CBL2 eine Buchse für angeblich nur einen digitalen Ein- bzw. Ausgang. An diesem Eingang wird standardmäßig hauptsächlich der Bewegungssensor CBR betrieben. In diesem Beitrag werden Erweiterungsmöglichkeiten dieses Anschlusses beschrieben.
Wenn eine runde Platine mit LED-Zeile rotiert, entstehen leuchtende Ringe. Steuert man die LEDs mit einem Mikrocontroller an, lassen sich aber auch "stehende" Bilder darstellen. Unser elektronischer Kreisel kann Buchstaben und Ziffern anzeigen. Dabei wird das Erdmagnetfeld auf clevere Weise zur Synchronisation genutzt. Hier reichen die Anwendungen vom Rundenzähler bis zum Kompass!
