This paper presents modeling and control of a hybrid distributed energy sources including photovoltaic (PV), fuel cell (FC) and battery energy storage (BES) in a microgrid which provides both real and reactive power to support an unbalanced utility grid. The overall configuration of the microgrid including dynamic models for the PV, FC, BES and its power electronic interfacing are briefly descr...

Different models have been able to account for different features of the data on grid cell firing properties, including the relationship of grid cells to cellular properties and network oscillations. This paper describes a model that combines elements of two major classes of models of grid cells: models using interactions of oscillations and models using attractor dynamics. This model includes ...

We make use of the existence of cell-disjoint paths in the 3D grid topology to design a new highly reliable adaptive geographic routing protocol called Grid-based Adaptive Routing Protocol (GARP) for Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks. In GARP, the underwater environment is viewed as a virtual 3D grid of cells. A packet is forwarded following a pre-constructed routing path from a node in a gri...

In the near future the use of distributed generation systems will play a big role in the production ofelectrical energy. One of the most common types of DG technologies , fuel cells , which can be connectedto the national grid by power electronic converters or work alone Studies the dynamic behavior andstability of the power grid is of crucial importance. These studies need to know the exact mo...

A two dimensional numerical model of shallow water equations was developed tocalculate sub and super-critical open channel flows. Utilizing an implicit scheme the steady stateequations were discretized based on control volume method. Collocated grid arrangement was appliedwith a SIMPLEC like algorithm for depth-velocity coupling. Power law scheme was used fordiscretization of convection and dif...

Firing fields of grid cells in medial entorhinal cortex show compression or expansion after manipulations of the location of environmental barriers. This compression or expansion could be selective for individual grid cell modules with particular properties of spatial scaling. We present a model for differences in the response of modules to barrier location that arise from different mechanisms ...

Grid cells in the entorhinal cortex are generally considered to be a central part of a path integration system supporting the construction of a cognitive map of the environment in the brain. Guided by this hypothesis existing computational models of grid cells provide a wide range of possible mechanisms to explain grid cell activity in this specific context. Here we present a complementary grid...

We introduce a grid cell microcircuit hypothesis. We propose the 'grid in the world' (evident in grid cell discharges) is generated by a 'grid in the cortex'. This cortical grid is formed by patches of calbindin-positive pyramidal neurons in layer 2 of medial entorhinal cortex (MEC). Our isomorphic mapping hypothesis assumes three types of isomorphism: (i) metric correspondence of neural space ...

The implementation of VGR-stress imaging technique, as a free surface boundary condition, in a (2, 4) staggered grid P-SV wave finite difference (FD) algorithm with a variable size of a grid cell is presented in this paper. VGR is acronym for 'vertical grid-size reduction'. The qualitative and quantitative results confirmed that the effective thickness (ETH) of the first soil layer become less ...
