Wind power plants (WPs) play a very important role in the systems because thermal (TPs) suffers from shortcomings of expensive cost and limited fossil fuels. As compared to other renewable energies, WPs are more effective it can produce electricity all day morning evening. Consequently, this paper integrates optimal generation TPs absolutely exploit energy reduce total TPs. The target be reache...

Cognitive reserve (CR) has been proposed as a latent variable that can account for the frequent discrepancy between an individual's underlying level of brain pathology and their observed clinical outcome. A possible behavioral manifestation of CR is best strategy choice. Older adults have been shown to choose sub-optimal strategies for performing various tasks. The present study attempted to in...

This paper employs an approximation that makes a nonlinear term structure model extremely tractable for analysis of an economy operating near the zero lower bound for interest rates. We show that such a model offers an excellent description of the data compared to the benchmark model and can be used to summarize the macroeconomic effects of unconventional monetary policy. Our estimates imply th...

Charles Rosenblatt Department of Physics Case Western Reserve University Cleveland, Ohio 44106 USA Abstract Liquid crystal research falls under the broad category of “soft materials,” and is conducted at universities, government laboratories, and in industry around the world. The field has been particularly conducive to collaborative interactions, with many national and regional liquid crystal ...

In this paper, a synchronized control strategy of double fed induction generator that can provide reserve capability and primary frequency support for microgrid is firstly developed. The microgrid based small signal stability performance is investigated under multiple operating conditions. The effect of three categories of key controller parameters on dominant eigenvalues is studied by sensitiv...

The Federal Reserve has been providing paper currency since its founding in 1913. In fact, the major purpose for creating the Federal Reserve System was to furnish an “elastic currency” that would make financial crises, such as the panic of 1907, less severe. While much has changed in the financial landscape over the last 87 years, currency remains an integral part of the U.S. payments system, ...

Continued consolidation of the U.S. banking industry and a general increase in the size of banks has prompted some policymakers to consider policies that discourage banks from getting larger, including explicit caps on bank size. However, limits on the size of banks could entail economic costs if they prevent banks from achieving economies of scale. This paper presents new estimates of returns ...

BACKGROUND Risk stratification for ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) is important to refine selection criteria for primary prevention implantable cardioverter defibrillator therapy. Impaired hyperemic myocardial blood flow (MBF) is associated with increased mortality rate in ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathy, which may be attributed to electric instability inducing VAs. The aim of this pilot ...
