Accurate transient stability assessment (TSA) and effective preventive control are important for the stable operation of power systems.With the superiorities in precision and efficiency, data-driven methods are widely used in TSA nowadays.Data-driven TSA model can be adopted in the stability constraints of preventive control optimization, but exist
Self reported incidence and morbidity of acute respiratory illness among deployed U.S. military in Iraq and Afghanistan.
BACKGROUND: Historically, respiratory infections have had a significant impact on U.S.military missions.Deployed Control Switch troops are particularly at high risk due to close living conditions, stressful work environments and increased exposure to pathogens.To date, there are limited data available on acute respiratory illness (ARI) among troops
Biological Crust Diversity Related to Elevation and Soil Properties at Local Scale in a Montane Scrub of Ecuador
The montane shrublands of southern Ecuador represent one of the least studied ecosystems, which in the last decade have been seriously threatened by increasing wildfires, deforestation, overgrazing, and conversion to forest plantations.Our main objective was to determine, at the local scale, the diversity of species composing the biological soil cr
Examination and Analysis of designs on the Mosul Ewers (Case Studies: Ewer of Ahmad Zakki-ol-Naghash Mosuli, Ewer of Younes ibn Yousef Mouseli, Ewer of Ghasem ibn Ali Mosuli, Ewer of Ibrahim ibn Mavaliai Mosuli)
Ewers are among the most important metal artifacts in the Islamic art and civilization.The most magnificent examples of ewers can be seen during the 4th-7th Hijri centuries concurrent with Seljuk, Ilkhanate dynasties in Iran, built by the artists of Khorasan and Mosul metalworking schools.Taking advantage of available quality materials, innovative
Multiple Layered Control of the Conjugation Process of the Bacillus subtilis Plasmid pLS20
Bacterial conjugation is the main horizontal gene transfer route responsible for the spread of antibiotic resistance, virulence and toxin genes.During conjugation, DNA is transferred from a donor to a recipient cell via a sophisticated channel connecting the two cells.Conjugation not only affects many different aspects of the plasmid and the host,
