In order to reduce the effect of numerical weather prediction (NWP) error on short term load forecasting (STLF) and improve the forecasting accuracy, a new hybrid model based on support vector regression (SVR) optimized by an artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm (ABC-SVR) and seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) model is proposed. According to the different day types and ...

The device design of future nanoscale MOSFETs is reviewed. Major challenges in the design of the nanometer MOSFETs and the possible solutions are discussed. In this paper, special emphasis is placed on the combination of new transistor structures that suppress the short channel effect and on back-gate voltage control that suppresses the characteristics variations. Two new device architectures, ...

Wind power prediction of wind farm plays a decisive role in stable electric power system operation.The BP neural network’s basic principle was introduced, and the numerical weather prediction (NWP) data and power data of wind farm as the training data of BP neural network was selected and trained; a linear regression model about the sample prediction error was presented, which considers the cou...

Purpose: This research will try to predict damage probability and calculate the main stress resulted from baton impacts by finite element (FE) modeling of the human head considering skull texture, brain and cerebrospinal fluid.Materials and Methods: A three dimensional FE model of the skull-brain complex was constructed for simulating the baton impact. The FE analysis was carried out using ANSY...

Importance of this therapeutic method in Iran is more prominent than other countries in the world for two main reasons; the first one is plant richness, biodiversity, having 11 climates of 13 world-known climates, and diversity of 8000 plant species that are considered as an exclusive capacity in Iran. The second is considering the possibility of inadequate access to medicine at the internation...

This paper integrates competitive pricing and network design problems for the short life cycle products. The pricing problem determines selling prices of the products for different life cycle phases in a competitive market, as well as acquisition management of returned products. Besides, the selling and acquisition prices are related to the distance between distribution centers and customers. T...
