Subsynchronous resonance in series compensated networks with high penetration of renewable energy sources by Chikohora, Tinashe Edward

“…The dissertation dissects the SSR problem with emphasis on its management in a modern power system environment receiving rising RES and flexible alternating current transmission systems (FACTS) connections through series compensated lines. The simulations performed in this study utilised the IEEE first benchmark model (FBM) within Digital Simulation and Electrical Network – PowerFactory (DIgSILENT) software. …”

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Modelling by Katsiru, Noah Kudakwashe

“…Using OFDM modulation techniques, a multipath channel was investigated for realistic simulations. In MATLAB, a picture was used as the input signal to identify the OFDM modulation method with the lowest bit error rate (BER). …”

Condition Monitoring of VSD-fed Induction Motors by Ralikalakala, Lebohang

“…A similar trend is observed in speed and torque pulsations of the motor under the respective faults. Similarly, the method of diagnostic variables has proven valid for both simulation and experimental results and is able to detect and localise inverter open switch fault for single and double switch fault. …”

The effect of wing flexibility on ride comfort in formation flight by Biden, Kirsty Joy

“…The trailing wake vortices shed by the lead aircraft in formation flight were considered to have a solid core using the Burnham-Hallock Model. The optimal positioning of the trailing aircraft in a two-aircraft formation was discussed and all subsequent simulations run with the trailing vortex core initially located at the wing tip and 0.1 of a wingspan above the wing. …”
