A research group led by Satoshi Ide from the University of Tokyo has demonstrated that classic earthquake generation theory does not hold in areas where the angle at which a tectonic plate dips under ...

Abstract: As a critical infrastructure component in modern power systems, Gas-Insulated Switchgear (GIS) plays a pivotal role in ensuring grid stability and power supply reliability. Current ...

In the context of the rapid development of intelligent manufacturing, the stable operation of mechanical equipment is crucial for maintaining industrial production continuity and achieving economic ...

Software is ubiquitous in safety-critical systems and the size of the software can be enormous—tens of millions of lines of code is not unusual today. How can the safety of such systems be assured?

Transformer is one of the important components of the power system, capable of transmitting and distributing the electricity generated by renewable energy sources. Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) is one ...

Worse-case analysis takes a “Murphy’s Law” approach to algorithm analysis, which is too crude to give meaningful algorithmic guidance for many important problems, including linear programming, ...

Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) has been a well-established and widely used method to deduct system failure scenarios for large complex systems like Nuclear Power Plants (NPPs). Redundant design is usually ...

Science is rooted in the concept that a model can be tested against observations and rejected when necessary. However, the problem of model testing becomes formidable when we consider the ...
