TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present three harmonic simulation test systems for the preparation and analysis of harmonic problems through case studies and simulation examples, which can be used as benchmark for the development of new harmonic simulation methods and for the evaluation of existing harmonic analysis software.
Abstract: This paper presents three harmonic simulation test systems. The purpose is to demonstrate guidelines for the preparation and analysis of harmonic problems through case studies and simulation examples. The systems can also be used as benchmark systems for the development of new harmonic simulation methods and for the evaluation of existing harmonic analysis software.

TL;DR: In this article, a universal modeling and simulation approach is presented to show that accurate battery pack simulation can be achieved if cell-to-cell variations were taken into account, using a single cell model, which was validated against experimental data and demonstrated with validity of high accuracy in predicting cell performance.

TL;DR: The main contribution of this work is the utilization of the two-diode model to represent the PV cell, requiring only four parameters and known to have better accuracy at low irradiance level, allowing for more accurate prediction of PV system performance during partial shading condition.

TL;DR: In this article, a constitutive model for the acrylic elastomer VHB 4910 is presented for finite element modeling and simulation of dielectric elastomers of general shape and set-up.
Abstract: Dielectric elastomers are used as base material for so-called electroactive polymer (EAP) actuators. A procedure and a specific constitutive model (for the acrylic elastomer VHB 4910) are presented in this work for finite element modeling and simulation of dielectric elastomer actuators of general shape and set-up. The Yeoh strain energy potential and the Prony series are used for describing the large strain time-dependent mechanical response of the dielectric elastomer. Material parameters were determined from uniaxial experiments (relaxation tests and tensile tests). Thereby the inverse problem was solved using iterative finite element calculations. A pre-strained circular actuator was built and activated with a predefined voltage. A three-dimensional finite element model of the circular actuator was created and the electromechanical activation process simulated. Simulation and actual measurements agree to a great extent, thus leading to a validation of both the constitutive model and the actuator simulation procedure proposed in this work.
