“…Such energy optimization problem can be tackled with strategies considering the robotic system as a whole, and thus requiring increased collaboration between its components. Similar issues are also present in other applications as port cranes, where multi-drive systems with independent loads are installed [19].…”

Industrial automation has been recently challenged by new initiatives such as Industry 4.0, which promises higher connectivity between the devices in an industrial plant. The goal of this work is to discuss how electric drives, widely employed in industry, could benefit from this increased connectivity. Specific applications, such as condition monitoring and multidrive systems, are considered to show the advantages of the industrial network presence, combined with the introduction of new data driven methods. Moreover, the status of industrial communication technologies is depicted, and their suitability for condition monitoring and multi-drive systems applications is described.

“…The double cable lines in the STS cranes' power substations mean that if a fault occurs, the system can reconfigure and operate without delay. The new scenarios of sustainability, for electrical and energy systems in ports, can be synthesized in the 4-L pillars approach: less, leveled, local, load (also called lele-lolo approach) [8]. Since the cranes, need about 72% of the total power at Pier E (in detail, STS cranes about 37%, ASC cranes 32% and RMG around 3%) [9] with the considerable peak power demand.…”

The use of energy storage with high power density and fast response time at container terminals (CTs) with a power demand of tens of megawatts is one of the most critical factors for peak reduction and economic benefits. Peak shaving can balance the load demand and facilitate the participation of small power units in generation based on renewable energies. Therefore, in this paper, the economic efficiency of peak demand reduction in ship to shore (STS) cranes based on the ultracapacitor (UC) energy storage sizing has been investigated. The results show the UC energy storage significantly reduce the peak demand, increasing the load factor, load leveling, and most importantly, an outstanding reduction in power and energy cost. In fact, the suggested approach is the start point to improve reliability and reduce peak demand energy consumption.

“…Due to their advantages if compared against standard three-phase systems [2], multi-three phase electrical motors and multi-drive applications are still widely investigated, i.e. aerospace [3], [4], mining machines [5], [6], ships [7], [8], and road vehicles [9]. One of their main benefit is redundancy, leading to increased fault tolerance and reliability.…”

Abstract-This paper proposes a distributed speed control with improved power sharing capability for multi-three phase synchronous machines. This control technique allows the speed to be precisely regulated during power sharing transients among different drives. The proposed regulator is able to control the time constant of the current within the dq0 reference frame to a step input variation. If compared to current set-point step variations, the proposed droop controller minimises device's stress, torque ripple, and thus mechanical vibrations. Furthermore, since distributed, it shows improved fault tolerance and reliability. The design procedure and the power sharing dynamic have been presented and analysed by means of Matlab/Simulink and validated in a 22kW experimental rig, showing good agreement with the expected performances.
