The interaction between electrical and mechanical torques in the synchronous machines connected to bulk power transmission systems gives rise to electromechanical oscillations which, depending on the operating conditions and type of disturbance, may be poorly damped or even unstable. Recently, a combination of power system stabilizers (PSSs) and power electronic devices known as FACTS (flexible alternating current transmission systems) has been recognized as one of the most effective alternatives ...

A new method for selection of the most effective controls to prevent voltage instability in electrical power systems is developed in this paper. The proposed method is fast and suitable for real time operation. It is based on a sensitivity analysis of both a maximum loadability estimate (which is obtained via Look-Ahead method) and the load flow solution with respect to the selected controls. These sensitivities are calculated without computing the maximum loadability points, which significantly ...

A new methodology for selecting a global group of the most effective preventive controls in the context of voltage stability analysis in electrical power systems for a set of multiple critical contingencies is developed in this paper. This methodology is based on a sensitivity analysis of the maximum loadability point with respect to voltage controls. Considering not only the effectiveness of the control elements but also their availability, coordination, and cost, the methodology determines a set ...

Cervical cancer (CC) is the primary cause of cancer deaths in underdeveloped countries. The persistence of infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) is a significant contributor to the development of CC. However, few women with morphologic HPV infection develop invasive illnesses, suggesting other mechanisms contribute to cervical carcinogenesis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs, miRs) are small chain nucleic acids that can regulate wide networks of cellular events. They can inhibit or degrade their target ...

In recent years, microRNAs (miRNAs) have gained increased attention from researchers around the globe. Although it is twenty nucleotides long, it can modulate several gene targets simultaneously. Their mal expression is a signature of various pathologies, and they provide the foundation to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of each pathology. Among the debilitating central nervous system (CNS) disorders with a growing prevalence globally is the multiple sclerosis (MS). Moreover, the diagnosis of MS ...

Toxoplasmosis is one of the highly prevalent zoonotic diseases worldwide caused by the parasite Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii). The infection with T. gondii could pass unidentified in immunocompetent individuals; however, latent cysts remain dormant in their digestive tract, but they could be shed and excreted with feces infesting the environment. However, active toxoplasmosis can create serious consequences, particularly in newborns and infected persons with compromised immunity. These complications ...

However, in most of the cases, the determination of this value is critical and based on heuristics. In this context, a new method based on Pareto-optimality and on the hierarchical clustering method called Data Mine of Code Repositories (DAMICORE) to determine the most promising groups in a given dendrogram is proposed. ...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that is associated with abnormal cognition. AD is aided in its initiation and progression by hereditary and environmental factors. Aluminum (Al) is a neurotoxic agent that causes oxidative stress, which is linked to AD progression. Additionally, Nrf2/HO-1, APOE4/LRP1, Wnt3/β-catenin, and TLR4/NLRP3 are the main signaling pathways involved in AD pathogenesis. Several phytochemicals are promising options in delaying AD evolution.This study aimed ...
