When the distribution system is disconnected from the transmission system, the islanded portion of the network comprising DG (Distributed Generation) units forms a MG Cotton (Micro Grid).It is essential either to shut down the DG units or ensure the stable and the controlled operation of the islanded MG.The frequency and the voltage of the islanded
The strut chordae (SC) have a unique structure and play an important role in reinforcing the tunnel-shaped configuration of the mitral valve (MV) at the inflow and outflow tracts.We investigated the effect of varying the SC insertion location on normal MV function and dynamics to better understand the complex MV structures.A virtual parametric MV m
A simple food chain (plant, insect pests, and predatory arthropods) in an agro-ecosystem was set up here as a model system to elucidate the potential effect of transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) cotton on non-target organisms.The system included transgenic/non-transgenic cotton, neonate larvae of three herbivorous insects (Spodoptera exigua, He
The intent of this study is to explore the physical properties and long-term performance of concrete made with metakaolin (MK) as a binder, using microsilica (MS) and nanosilica (NS) as substitutes for a portion of the ordinary Portland cement (OPC) content.The dosage of MS was varied from 5% to 15% for OPC-MK-MS blends, and the dosage Pre Oiled ST
Rockfall hazard assessment is not simple to achieve in practice and sound, physically based assessment methodologies are still missing.The mobility of rockfalls implies a more difficult hazard definition with respect to other slope instabilities with minimal runout.Rockfall hazard assessment involves complex definitions for "occurrence probabi
