The restrike of vacuum circuit breaker during the breaking process causes overvoltage and intensifies the insulation deterioration of high‐voltage equipment. To solve this problem, the vacuum breaker aging test method and the restrike characteristics are researched. A withstand voltage test platform of 40.5‐kV vacuum circuit breaker was established to obtain the effects of the contact spacing and loop and inrush currents of vacuum circuit breaker on the number of restrike, the wavefront steepness of the breakdown voltage, and the breakdown duration. The number of restrike during the breaking of vacuum circuit breaker decreased and the duration of the repeated‐breakdown arc increased with the increased contact spacing of vacuum circuit breaker. As the loop current of the test system increased, the number of restrike during the breaking of vacuum circuit breaker, the wavefront steepness of the breakdown voltage, and the duration of the restrike arc increased. As the inrush current amplitude increased during the closing of vacuum circuit breaker, the number of restrike and the duration of the repeated‐breakdown arc during the breaking of vacuum circuit breaker increased. The results provide a theoretical basis and data support for the preventive test of 40.5‐kV vacuum circuit breaker and the optimization of the withstand voltage test.

The diffusional process involving elastic collisions between charge carriers and neutrals has long been the predominant candidate for post‐injection momentum loss in the far wider drift region outside confined DC corona discharges in gases. A supplementary research paradigm is here put forward for the interest of a greater understanding of corona‐assisted unipolar ion flows in atmospheric air. In this respect, the auto‐pulsing mode of glow‐type coronas in air is modelled as a source of momentum whose conservation is substantially preserved across the external transfer region. The tangible prospect of charge‐bearing flows in the form of a filamentary convection, with negligible drifting component, in buffer gas is put forward in relation to spontaneous symmetry‐breaking instability. This setting bears some resemblance to the self‐organised collective behaviour of self‐propelled (active) particles. The value of this scheme gains strength precisely in relation to the strong inhomogeneity of the electric field surrounding electrodes prone to go into corona. On such a basis, it is believed that the drift of corona‐generated ions deserves to be reconsidered in view of the arguments set out in the present modelling.

In order to improve the electrical tree resistance of epoxy resin, composites were prepared using dihydroxydiphenylsilane and a novel silicone modifier modified epoxy resin and micron silica, and the composites were subjected to accelerated thermal aging test and electrical tree test and recorded the growth process of electrical trees to further obtain the characteristic parameters of electrical trees in the experimental samples. The results show that the silicone‐modified epoxy resin/silica composite has better thermal stability and electrical tree resistance than the unmodified epoxy resin/silica composite and pure epoxy resin. Analysis of the scanning electron microscope (SEM) and breakdown field strength results show that the introduction of the modifier enhanced interfacial properties between the epoxy resin and silica. At the end of the electrical tree test, the length of the electrical tree in the silicone‐modified epoxy resin/silica composite was at a minimum 25.31% of the length of the electrical tree in the unmodified epoxy resin/silica composite with the same silica filling ratio, and 9.19% of the length of the electrical tree in the pure epoxy, while the electrical trees in the silicone‐modified epoxy resin/silica composite have lower expansion factors, as well as higher fractal dimensions, compared to those in the resin without added silica.

This study addresses the challenge of motion control in autonomousvehicles through the introduction of a novel profile generation design. Specifically,autonomous vehicles often contend with uncertain factors and physicallimitations within their operational environments, such as abrupt changes inacceleration or intricate parametric motion profiles. To tackle this problem, afiltering technique for motion profile generation is proposed, leveraging ahardware programming language as its foundation. The investigation begins byanalyzing the specific structure of the mobile platform, which includes twoactive side wheels, two passive rear wheels, a high load capacity, and adifferential drive mode. Building upon this theoretical basis, the proposedfiltering technique is introduced to attain smooth motion profiles and optimizetiming. Furthermore, the study suggests the use of FPGA (Field ProgrammableGate Array) acceleration to expedite these computations for swift motionprocessing. To validate the efficacy of the proposed method, both the mobilevehicle and the load are simulated as a one‐axis linear ball‐screw system withan aluminum ruler. The experimental results unequivocally demonstrate theeffectiveness, feasibility, and applicability of the proposed approach across avariety of industrial solutions.
