Control and Dynamics in Power Systems and Microgrids

Control and Dynamics in Power Systems and Microgrids

In traditional power system dynamics and control books the focus is on synchronous generators. Within current industry where renewable energy power electronics converters and microgrids arise the related system-level dynamics and control need coverage. Wind energy system dynamics and microgrid system control are covered. The text also offers insight to using programming examples state-of-the-art control design tools and advanced control concepts to explain traditional power system dynamics and control. The reader will gain knowledge of dynamics and control in both synchronous generator-based power system and power electronic converter enabled renewable energy systems as well as microgrids. | Control and Dynamics in Power Systems and Microgrids

The Artist-Philosopher and New Philosophy

The Artist-Philosopher and New Philosophy

In The Artist-Philosopher and New Philosophy Smith argues that Western Metaphysics has indeed come to what Heidegger describes as “an end. ” That is hardly to say philosophy as such is over or soon to disappear; rather its purpose as a medium of cultural change and as a generator of history has run its course. He thus calls for a New Philosophy conceptualized by the artist-philosopher who “makes” or “poeticizes” New Philosophy spanning literary and theoretical discourses and operating across art in all its forms and across culture in all its locations. To this end Smith proposes the establishment of schools and social networks that advance the training and development of artist-philosophers as well as global digital networks that are themselves designed toward this “ever-becoming community. ”

Digital Transformation A Strategic Structure for Implementation

Digital Transformation A Strategic Structure for Implementation

With the advent of digital technologies society is reshaping itself radically. In the last decade digital technologies have brought fundamental changes in the industry and business environment. The holistic socioeconomic and industrial changes are a result of general-purpose technology aspects of digital transformation which are rare and have inherent capabilities of self-transformation to bring long-term benefits across the entire global business environment. After the steam engine electric generator and printing press the recent development of digital transformation has created an opportunity with extensive sustainable and incremental influence for disruption and renovation. However the most important difference between digital transformation and the previous general-purpose technologies such as steam engines and electric generators is the pace of technology’s penetration across the globe. To cope with the accelerated speed of global digitization the digital transformation process should be accepted adopted and adapted across society and business utilizing a multi-dimensional strategy. This book illustrates a strategic structure that covers Digital Challenges for Industries Applicability for Digital Transformation Digital Transformation Framework People and Organization Structure Capability Delivery Activities and Life Cycle Benefits. How will businesses embrace digital transformation? How will organizations formulate a digital transformation strategy? How will they invest in digital technologies? To answer these questions a strategic structure is created which can provide guidelines to businesses to create a framework for digital transformation that includes strategy process governance and funding. The exponential growth in data capacity (storage process and communication) due to rapid digitalization has created infinite opportunities and different dimensions to businesses. Digital platforms have enabled alternative business models by deconstructing the traditional value chains. Agile concepts driven by design thinking have brought innovative perspectives with an environment of boundless disruption. To run a company with sustainability and manage disruptions more consciously the adoption of a digital platform with an appropriate strategy is the only viable option. Digital transformation (DX) goals and strategies should be in line with a company’s business objectives. The strategic structure explained in the book is a global framework that can be adopted by any profit or nonprofit organization. Like any other transformational process digital transformation has created structural tension between old and new. In this tension employees play a large role and their clarity of thought regarding the transformation process is of paramount interest. To overcome this tension companies need to orient as learning organizations which will provide opportunities for growth in an ambidextrous environment embraced with a digital ecosystem. The book explains how the structural tension between old and new can be mitigated by effectively involving all stakeholders in the transformation process. | Digital Transformation A Strategic Structure for Implementation
