Active filters with control based on the p-q theory
TL;DR: In this paper, active filters have been used as a solution to solve harmonic current problems, but they present several disadvantages, namely: they only filter the frequencies they were previously tuned for; their operation cannot be limited to a certain load; resonances can occur because of the interaction between the passive filters and other loads, with unpredictable results.

p-q Theory power components calculations
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the instantaneous power waveform presents symmetries if 1/6, 1/3 or 1 cycle of the power system fundamental frequency, depending on the system being balanced or not, and having or not even harmonics.
Shunt active filter for power quality improvement
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the development of a low cost shunt active power filter with digital control, which allows dynamic power factor correction and both harmonics and zero-sequence current compensation.
Active filters for power quality improvement
TL;DR: In this paper, the p-q theory was used to implement the control algorithm of a shunt active filter, which can compensate for harmonic currents, power factor and load unbalance.

Biological microsystem for measuring uric acid in biological fluids
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a biological micro-system (bio-system) for measuring uric acid concentration in serum, plasma or urine, which is based on optical absorption in a well-defined part of the visible spectrum.
