The voltage instability in power system increases with power demand and over stressing of existing transmission lines nearly to their limits. A serious type of voltage instability is voltage collapse. In this paper comparative study of two techniques, namely Voltage Collapse Prediction Index (VCPI) and Sensitivity analysis to find voltage collapse vulnerability of bus in a power system is done....

Lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection induces a protective CTL response consisting of gp- and nucleoprotein (NP)-specific CTL. We find that a small load of LCMV led to immunodominance of NP-CTL, whereas a large viral load resulted in dominance of gp-CTL. This is the first study describing that immunodominance is not fixed after infection with a given pathogen, but varies with the ...

Traditionally, load sensitivity of sustained, elevated activity has been taken as an index of storage for a limited number of items in visual short-term memory (VSTM). Recently, studies have demonstrated that the contents of a single item held in VSTM can be decoded from early visual cortex, despite the fact that these areas do not exhibit elevated, sustained activity. It is unknown, however, w...

The requirement for minimized cost whilst preserving power system reliability necessitates the development of both efficient system security assessment approaches and appropriate emergency remedial actions. Load shedding is a type of corrective actions that is applied to save power system stability against severe disturbances. This paper proposes an optimal load shedding policy that takes into ...
