DETERMINING OPTIMAL ARRANGEMENT OF DISTRIBUTED GENERATIONS IN MICROGRIDS TO SUPPLY ELECTRICAL AND THERMAL DEMANDS USING IMPROVED SHUFFLED FROG LEAPING ALGORITHM

Global warming and prices of energy carriers within political conflicts between different nations, are some of the problems for traditional energy production and economic dispatch.In traditional generation systems, about 25 percentage of energy is wasted, and the presence of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) such as Photovoltaic, Wind Turbine and

Main Problem: Robotic-assisted techniques are common for living-donor nephrectomy.While robotic stapling offers increased surgeon control, there is limited comparative data versus laparoscopic linear stapler use for ligation of renal vessels.Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 32 consecutive robotic-assisted Nail Bits donor nephrectomies by a sing

Abstract Water uptake is the fundamental requirement for the initiation and completion of seed germination that is a vital phase in the life cycle of seed plants.We Vehicles found that seeds produced under four nitrogen levels showed significantly different germination speed.The objective of this study was to study the mechanism of rapid seed germi

This paper presents a control scheme of a wide-area controlled static VAr compensator (WAC-SVC) and its real-time implementation in a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation scheme with three control objectives: (1) to increase the critical clearing time, (2) to damp the power oscillations, and (3) to minimize the maximum line current.The proposed co

Predisposition for a high alcohol intake and the impact of alcohol-abstinence-relapse may be reliable experimentally performed in conventional adult rat lines if animals received juvenile exposure to alcohol (e.g., by forced consumption) and selecting those individuals with high basal anxiety levels during juvenile periods.Importantly, a forced alc
