This paper describes research on the harmonic-distortion capacity of a single-stage photovoltaic (PV) 3.68 kWp generator in a microgrid configuration. An overview of various harmonic compensator methods used in PV generators is presented to evaluate their advantages and disadvantages. Proportional-resonant (PR) structures with harmonic compensators (HCs) are designed, modeled, and validated through real-time tests. The modeling of harmonic compensation structures for a photovoltaic inverter using MATLAB/SIMULINK R2022a is explained in detail. The harmonic compensation capacity of a PV generator inverter is studied under voltage harmonics, grid frequency variation, and voltage unbalance. The contributions of this work are, firstly a bibliographic analysis of various strategies currently used for harmonic compensation in grid-connected inverters and secondly, a detailed explanation of the modeling of harmonic compensation structures using MATLAB/SIMULINK. Finally, a demonstration of the improvement in energy quality that results from using harmonic compensation techniques in photovoltaic generators in microgrid configurations affected by grid disturbances is performed. The obtained results show that harmonic compensation strategies based on resonant filters are a good alternative for the reduction of harmonic voltage distortion in the presence of grid disturbances such as frequency variation and voltage unbalance.

En el presente artículo se propone el modelado del sistema continuo correspondiente al motor síncrono de imanes permanentes (MSIP) con presencia de degradación en la inercia rotacional del rotor, mediante el mecanismo de fisura, lo cual permite la estimación de parámetros físicos, en el caso de análisis, el diámetro de la grieta presente en el rotor, disminuyendo con ello la incertidumbre en el modelado del MSIP. Se lleva a cabo la identificación en bucle cerrado de las ganancias mediante un análisis de sensibilidad, donde mediante el método computacional de optimización de búsqueda por algoritmos genéticos se obtienen las ganancias que logran converger el modelo propuesto al modelo de referencia.
This paper presents a robust trajectory tracking control for a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) with consideration a fault, parametric uncertainties and external disturbances by effectively integrating robust optimal linear quadratic control. One kind of fault is considered in the machine, particularly the presence of fissure rotor. The dynamic model of the PMSM with the presence of fissure presents highly non-linear behaviors, which means that tuning is quite complicated, which the tuning was chosen through swarm intelligence optimization (Dragonfly Algorithm). A sensitivity analysis is carried out, in order to limit the search range to minimize the evaluation time. This methodology was used to diminish these defects during motor operation. Simulation results show that the optimal linear quadratic control method has a robust fault-tolerant performance.

En el presente artículo se propone un modelo para caracterizar las variación de corriente en terminales de un motor síncrono de imanes permanentes (MSIP) como consecuencia del efecto de desbalance en el rotor a causa de una grieta superficial. Se modela el desbalance en el rotor mediante las ecuaciones de Laval con acoplamiento del efecto de la grieta superficial. Se propone un modelo de efecto de variación del entrehierro a partir de este desbalance, lo cual origina una variación en las inductancias del modelo del MSIP, que a su vez ocasionan una variación en el consumo de la corriente. Con este modelo se espera contribuir en el campo de determinación de parámetros físicos, en este caso, grietas o desbalances causados por imperfecciones que se comporten como tal.
This article proposes a model to estimate the optimal cutting speed and depth of cut used in the machining process by chip removal during the turning operation, considering the structural integrity of the workpiece to be machined. The structural integrity model is proposed considering the rounding of the cutting tool nose as a measure of roughness requested in the workpiece, the electrical power capacity delivered by the machine tool motor as a load-limiting factor for the process, the geometry of the desired workpiece, and the physical machining parameters given by cutting tool manufacturers. Based on these criteria, an estimation algorithm is proposed that integrates these parameters and executes the search for the optimal cutting depth and cutting speed, meeting the structural integrity criterion in accordance with the minimum machining time criterion in the turning process, establishing a balance between process reliability and minimization of machining time. The proposed model is innovative since it presents a new methodology to determine the depth of cut and calculate the machining speed under the criterion of preserving the structural integrity of the piece to be machined to the maximum. This means that the depth of cut and spindle speed estimated under the proposed methodology guarantee that during the machining process, the workpiece will not suffer structural damage from the cutting forces involved in the machining process, minimizing the effects of loading in areas of stress concentration, thereby contributing to highlighting and involving the concept of process reliability. This model provides a new theoretical method for technologists involved in the calculation of the machining process, offering them a theoretical basis for their proposals for depth of cut and cutting speed.
