With the development of critical loads, power quality problem has become particularly important and poor power quality will be cause many adverse effects and the cost of many deaths will follow. To improve power quality and protection of sensitive loads against grid disturbances have been used new equipment based on power electronics similar FACTs devices, they are Custom Power. One of the most...

as is well known, estimating parameters of the tree-parameter weibull distribution is a complicated task and sometimes contentious area with several methods vying for recognition. weibull distribution involves in reliability studies frequently and has many applications in engineering. however estimating the parameters of weibull distribution is crucial in classical ways. this distribution has t...

in this paper, the distribution network for multi-level supply chain has been studied. products produced in factories are sent to customers through warehouses and distribution centers based on specific demands. warehouses as holding inventory facilities are located close to factories and the distribution centers are placed in the most accessible locations for services near customers. each item ...

Conventional passive distribution networks are changing to modern active distribution networks which are not radial. Conventional load flow methods should be modified for new distribution networks analysis. In modern distribution networks distributed generation (DG) units are embedded with conventional and/or renewable resources. DG units are generally modeled as PV or PQ nodes which inject ...

Computational analysis of musical influence networks and rank of sample-based music is presented with a unique outside examination of the WhoSampled.com dataset. The exemplary dataset maintains a large collection of artist-to-artist relationships of sample-based music, specifying the origins of borrowed or sampled material on a song-by-song basis. Directed song, artist, and musical genre networ...

A social (sexual) network is modeled by an extension of the configuration model to the situation where edges have weights, e.g., reflecting the number of sex-contacts between the individuals. An epidemic model is defined on the network such that individuals are heterogeneous in terms of how susceptible and infectious they are. The basic reproduction number R(0) is derived and studied for variou...

We introduce and solve a model which considers two coupled networks growing simultaneously. The dynamics of the networks is governed by the new arrival of network elements (nodes) making preferential attachments to pre-existing nodes in both networks. The model segregates the links in the networks as intra-links, cross-links and mix-links. The corresponding degree distributions of these links a...

Preferential attachment is a popular model of growing networks. We consider a generalized model with random node removal, and a combination of preferential and random attachment. Using a high-degree expansion of the master equation, we identify a topological phase transition depending on the rate of node removal and the relative strength of preferential vs. random attachment, where the degree d...
