Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) is a series compensating Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) controller for maintaining to the power flow control on a transmission line by injecting a voltage in quadrature with the line current and in series mode with the line. In this work, an Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System controller (ANFISC) has been proposed for controlling o...

This paper reviews the Fourier-series method for calculating cumulative distribution functions (cdf’s) and probability mass functions (pmf’s) by numerically inverting characteristic functions, Laplace transforms and generating functions. Some variants of the Fourier-series method are remarkably easy to use, requiring programs of less than fifty lines. The Fourier-series method can be interprete...

1430 NOTICES OF THE AMS VOLUME 44, NUMBER 11 The Football Player The air buzzed with anticipation as the football team crowded excitedly into the lecture hall. The country’s top halfback was about to defend his Ph.D. thesis in mathematics! It soon became apparent that the proceedings were a mere formality, as the candidate’s dissertation on summability methods for divergent Dirichlet series was...
