distance relays are used to protect ehv and hv transmission lines. over the past decades many algorithms have emerged for digital distance relays. these are based on the calculation of the transmission line impedance from the relaying to fault points. in this paper a novel method for digital distance relaying is proposed. in the method the tracking procedure is implemented. the method uses the ...

the objective of the study was to evaluate the cytotoxic effects of aqueous extract of cucumis melo fruit on human prostate cancer cell line (pc-3) using mtt and neutral red assays. the crude aqueous extract of c. melo was prepared by cold maceration method, filtered, concentrated and tested on pc-3 cell line. dose-dependent cytotoxic activities were exhibited on human prostate carcinoma pc-3 c...

the effect of magnetic field on the liquid-liquid equilibrium of two ternary systems (water + acetic acid + butyl acetate and water + acetic acid + dimethyl succinate) at 298.15 k under atmospheric pressure was investigated. the results obtained show that the strength of the magnetic field (0.02 t) affects the solubility of acetic acid in the used organic solvents. distribution coefficients and...

in this paper, an adaptive meshless method of line is applied to distribute the nodes in the spatial domain. in many cases in meshless methods, it is also necessary for the chosen nodes to have certain smoothness properties. the set of nodes is also required to satisfy certain constraints. in this paper, one of these constraints is investigated. the aim of this manuscript is the implementation ...

extended kalman filtering (ekf) is a nonlinear dynamic data reconciliation (nddr) method. one of its main advantages is its suitability for on-line applications. this paper presents an on-line nddr method using ekf. it is implemented for two case studies, temperature measurements of a distillation column and concentration measurements of a cstr. in each time step, random numbers with zero mean ...

this paper proposes an optimal transmission expansion planning (tep) which is based on determining share of each line in merchandizing surplus (ms) of system, determining by independent system operator (iso). the more share of a line in ms of system denotes the priority of a line for expansion. the procedure of determining ms of each line in a power system is based on determining the ms share o...
