This thesis relates to the successful development of an unmanned terrestrial
vehicle (UTV) capable of operating in an obstacle ridden environment. The
primary focus of the project is on the specific path planning algorithms. ...
Evaluation and implementation of anti-islanding methods for converter-fed distributed generation
(Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2009-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: As the number of distributed generation units connected to a distribution network
increase, the possibility of island formation increases. An island is formed when
distributed generation units continue ...
