In this paper we discuss the effects of non-algorithmic load imbalance for three synchronization structures which appear in different algorithms using domain decomposition methods for solving PDE's on a hypercube machine. The synchronization structures are determined from the conditions related to the partitioning of a hypercube. To characterize the load imbalance effects we introduce a factor ...

this paper presents a new centralized adaptive method under frequency load shedding. sometimes, after initial frequency drop following severe disturbances, although the system frequency returns to its permissible value, however, the system might become unstable due to voltage problems. in this regard, the paper proposes a new centralized adaptive load shedding method to enhance the voltage stab...

Most three-phase, squirrel-cage, induction motors (IMs) are oversized. In the European Union (EU), the average load factor of IMs is slightly lower than 60%. In fact, in some industrial sectors, a large quantity of motors operates with a load permanently significantly under that value (e.g., 25-30%). Therefore, since the load factor is an average of the motor load over its operating cycle, it c...

The foundation of an offshore installation is designed to resist the static and dynamic loads it is subjected to during its lifetime. The design codes specify combinations of load factor on the static load, load factor on the dynamic load, and resistance factor on the soil resistance, with reference to the ‘characteristic’ loads acting on the foundation and the ‘characteristic’ foundation capac...

Mean and pulsatile components of hemodynamic load are related to cardiovascular disease. Vascular growth factors play a fundamental role in vascular remodeling. The links between growth factors and hemodynamic load components are not well described. In 3496 participants from the Framingham Heart Study third generation cohort (mean age: 40 9 years; 52% women), we related 4 tonometry-derived meas...
