Recently, floating photovoltaic (FPV) configurations have gained popularity, utilizing the water surface of reservoirs as installation sites. Recognizing its potential, this paper proposes a methodology to harness the idle capacity of substation facilities in hydroelectric power plants (HPP) for sizing FPV plants, aiming for the maximal utilization of the substation's capacity and promoting complementarity with HPP generation. The study introduces a sizing proposal for FPV based on complementarity with the worst day of HPP generation within a defined period, aiming to utilize 100% of the substation's capacity. As a case study, the FPV potential is identified as 59.81 GWp for Belo Monte and 55.35 GWp for Itaipu. This approach seeks to enhance the overall efficiency and sustainability of power generation systems by integrating FPV with existing hydroelectric infrastructure.","PeriodicalId":55024,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Latin America Transactions","volume":"22 9","pages":"771-777"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10669249","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142143721","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although PV penetration is beneficial up to a point, beyond that point, it begins to generate issues related to voltage levels and grid stability. In modern distribution system planning, it is essential to identify an optimal operational point where the integration of PV supports the voltage profile rather than causing any adverse effects. The purpose of this paper is to explore and evaluate strategies to enhance Hosting Capacity and reduce Power Losses in distribution systems through an optimization algorithm that iteratively uses power-flow simulations and a Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm. Different strategies taking advantage of conventional distribution system assets are formulated to avoid new system reinforcement. The strategies include Network Reconfiguration, Capacitor Switching, On-Load Tap Changer Switching, Volt-VAR Control Settings and the Combination of all strategies. To evaluate the efficiency of each approach, a comprehensive simulation study is conducted on the IEEE 123 bus distribution system modeled in OpenDSS, with an algorithm created in Python to control the optimization process.","PeriodicalId":55024,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Latin America Transactions","volume":"22 9","pages":"778-788"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10669252","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142143585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, it is known that the amorphous local structure can vary depending on the amorphization technique used. Therefore, recognizing such variations related to a specific amorphization technique through the pair distribution function (PDF) method, for example, is an important tool for drug characterization concerns. This work presents a method to classify amorphous drugs according to their amorphization techniques and related to the local structure variations using machine learning. We used experimental PDF patterns obtained from low-energy X-rays scattering data to extract information and expanded the data through the Monte Carlo method to create a synthetic dataset. Then, we proposed the evaluation of such a technique using a Deep Neural Network. Based on the results obtained, it is suggested that the proposed technique is suitable for the amorphization technique and local structure recognition task.","PeriodicalId":55024,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Latin America Transactions","volume":"22 9","pages":"755-760"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10669245","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142143673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These inverters are required to comply with the IEC 63027:2023 (Photovoltaic power systems DC arc detection and interruption) standard. Considering this, the Electrical Engineering Laboratory at Mackenzie Presbyterian University (Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie UPM) conducted a series of arc-faults tests on three inverters available in the market, following the IEC 63027 standard. Each of the three inverters underwent a total of 32 arcs, considering number of Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) ports, different impedance topologies, arc position in the PV system, and maximum values of voltage and current. The experiments revealed that two of the three inverters are not capable of meeting the international standard for detecting and interrupting series arc-faults, highlighting the need evaluation of PV inverter sold in the Brazilian market. During the analysis, it was noted that for certain parameters proposed by IEC 63027, there is a gap of information regarding evaluation of the data relating to arc self-extinguish or actual AFCI intervention. It is show that this scenario can raise a concern: the possibility exists for an inverter meet the international standard without implementing an effective AFCI technology. The 96 tests conducted were compared in terms of arc detection time and arc energy. The data were analyzed and compared with respect to the phenomena of arc self-extinguishing and the operation of the AFCI.

Image processing systems provide detailed information on vehicle flow with adequate lighting conditions and a higher computational cost compared to sensor systems. The image processing systems with higher accuracy require higher computational cost. This feature limits the number of application cases in cities with low technology level. This research analyzes urban vehicle counting using an automatic image processing system using YOLOv5 in the vehicle detection-classification stage and the SORT algorithm in the tracking stage. The study used videos recorded from a pedestrian bridge in Popayan, Colombia, for an exploratory study of the influence of preprocessing operations on the performance of a low-tech vehicle counting system. The study performed a comparative statistical analysis to determine the impact of different settings on system performance. An ANOVA analysis evaluates the incidence of frame cut and reshape on YOLO processing. The results indicate that a 30% cut of the image area prior to YOLO processing produces the lowest weighted average error. In addition, the frame reshape only increases the processing time. The study proposes improvements in the performance of an offline automatic vehicle counting system from the video preprocessing stage.","PeriodicalId":55024,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Latin America Transactions","volume":"22 9","pages":"723-732"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10669248","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142143661","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This results in many different methodologies that may arise from diverse objectives. The model developed in this work is an agent-based model, in which pedestrian behaviour is defined by a set of forces. Each force models an aspect of pedestrian gait, with the objective of creating a virtual environment to train and test control systems for collaborative robots or autonomous vehicles. To meet the modelling requirements, the system employs various algorithms, such as \"flocking\", which simulates the coordination and formation of groups, \"pathfinding\", which enables agents to discover optimal routes within a given space, and algorithms specialized in avoiding walls and dynamic obstacles. These components collaborate to accurately depict how crowds move and react in different environments and situations. Thanks to the modularity of this approach, which facilitates the adjustment and expansion of the components, the developed system can be integrated into various applications, such as simulating non-playable characters (NPCs) in video games or modelling the evacuation of a building.","PeriodicalId":55024,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Latin America Transactions","volume":"22 8","pages":"670-677"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10620392","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141883113","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
