A new virtual synchronous generator (VSG) control strategy was researched and proposed for a VSC-HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current Based on Voltage Source Converter) transmission system. It can be applied to half-bridge or full-half-bridge hybrid topology modular multi-level converter (MMC) to improve the stability and reliability of the system. First, it is proposed that the energy stored in the equivalent capacitor of MMC power module was used to imitate the rotor inertial of synchronous generator. It can buffer transient power fluctuations and synchronize autonomously with the grid. Then the impedance characteristics of the proposed control method have been deduced and analyzed. The results show that the VSG control loop mainly improves the low frequency characteristics of the converter. Secondly, the ability to suppress transient fault current is weak. So, a method, that the given values of inner current loop are calculated by grid impedance matrix, was used. A double closed loop control structure composed by a power outer loop based on VSG control and a current inner loop is obtained. The simulation results show that it can effectively improve the current control capability during the transient process for systems with a 1:2 ratio of converter capacity to grid capacity (The grid short-circuit capacity is 60MW and the MMC is 30 MW). Finally, a hybrid MMC simulation model was built based on PSCAD and the steady-state and transient fault ride-through simulations were performed. The power adjustment time of MMC under the proposed VSG control is about 1s, while the adjustment time under the conventional control strategy is greater than 4s.

The glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist semaglutide has revolutionized the treatment of obesity, with other gut hormone-based drugs lined up that show even greater weight-lowering ability in obese patients. Nevertheless, bariatric surgery remains the mainstay treatment for severe obesity and achieves unparalleled weight loss that generally stands the test of time. While their underlying mechanisms of action remain incompletely understood, it is clear that the common denominator between GLP-1R agonists and bariatric surgery is that they suppress food intake by targeting the brain.

When wind turbines contribute to system frequency support using virtual synchronous generator (VSG) control, conventional VSG methods often fall short of meeting operational demands, particularly in terms of inertia and frequency support. In this study, considering both the frequency regulation and dynamic performance of VSG, a novel parameter design method that enhances frequency modulation capabilities is proposed in this paper. Initially, VSG control is integrated into the grid-side converter of a direct-drive permanent magnet synchronous generator (D-DPMSG) wind turbine.

As electronic circuit integration intensifies, there is a rising demand for dielectric insulators that provide both superior insulation and high dielectric constants. This study focuses on developing high-k dielectric insulators by controlling the phase of the HfZrO (HZO) film with additional doping, utilizing yttrium (Y), tantalum (Ta), gallium (Ga), silicon (Si), and aluminum (Al) as dopants. Doping changes the ratio of tetragonal to monoclinic phases in doped HZO films, and Y-doped HZO (Y:HZO) films specifically exhibit a high tetragonal phase ratio and a dielectric constant of 40.

Article Synopsis
- Trypanosomiasis, caused by the parasite Trypanosoma brucei, poses significant health risks in Africa due to its ability to evade immunity through VSG changes, while its unique ATP synthase F subunit may be a potential drug target.
- Researchers synthesized graphene quantum dots (GQDs) and studied their adhesion to T. brucei, revealing their ability to enter the parasite and affect its functions through various experimental techniques.
- The study found that GQDs specifically bind to T. brucei's VSG, impair ATP synthase function, induce harmful reactive oxygen species (ROS), and disrupt essential biosynthetic pathways, presenting a promising strategy for developing new anti-trypanosome treatments.
