16 May 2006TL;DR: A dynamic model of the VideoRay Pro III microROV is presented, in which the hydrodynamic derivatives are determined both theoretically and experimentally, based on the assumption that the motions in different directions are decoupled.
Abstract: Accurate modeling and simulation of underwater vehicles is essential for autonomous control. In this paper, we present a dynamic model of the VideoRay Pro III microROV, in which the hydrodynamic derivatives are determined both theoretically and experimentally, based on the assumption that the motions in different directions are decoupled. The experiments show that this assumption is reasonable within operating conditions of the VideoRay Pro III. A computer simulation with 3D graphics is also developed to help user to visualize the vehicle's motion.

TL;DR: It is shown how physical and mathematical modeling techniques can be combined to obtain a compact time-efficient electro-thermal simulation framework for power electronic modules.
Abstract: In this work, the spatial electro-thermal modeling and simulation of power electronic modules is discussed. It is shown how physical and mathematical modeling techniques can be combined to obtain a compact time-efficient electro-thermal simulation framework for power electronic modules. The accuracy of the modeling framework is demonstrated based on experiments. It can be used for the fast calculation of the temperature distribution of a power module in an electric vehicle over driving cycles. The spatial temperature information allows to effectively estimate the lifetime of the power module.

TL;DR: This paper describes the modeling and formulation of a variety of deterministic techniques for energy storage devices, namely the PI, H-infinity, and sliding mode controllers, based on a general, yet detailed, energy storage device model.
Abstract: This paper describes the modeling and formulation of a variety of deterministic techniques for energy storage devices, namely the PI, H-infinity, and sliding mode controllers. These techniques are defined based on a general, yet detailed, energy storage device model, which is accurate for transient stability analysis. The paper also presents a thorough statistical comparison of the performance and robustness of the considered control techniques, using stochastic dynamic models and a variety of disturbances and scenarios. The case study is based on a 1479-bus model of the all-island Irish transmission system and an energy storage device actually installed in the system.

TL;DR: A framework that identifies different audiences of computing and related computational thinking practices at the intersection of computer science and engineering and suggests a series of modeling and simulation practices, methods, and tools for such audiences is proposed.
Abstract: Computational thinking has been recognized as a collection of understandings and skills required for new generations of students not only proficient at using tools, but also at creating them and understanding the implication of their capabilities and limitations. This study proposes the combination of modeling and simulation practices along with disciplinary learning as a way to synergistically integrate and take advantage of computational thinking in engineering education. This paper first proposes a framework that identifies different audiences of computing and related computational thinking practices at the intersection of computer science and engineering. Then, based on a survey with 37 experts from industry and academia, this paper also suggests a series of modeling and simulation practices, methods, and tools for such audiences. Finally, this paper also reports experts’ identified challenges and opportunities for integrating modeling and simulation practices at the undergraduate level. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
