Due to the high penetration of renewable distributed generation (RDG), many issues have become conspicuous during intentional island operation such as power mismatch load shedding transition process and imbalance restoration process. In this paper, a phase measurement unit (PMU) based online strategy conservation voltage reduction (CVR) multi-period are proposed for with RDG. The strategy, whic...

Säkylän Pyhäjärvi (SW Finland) is an example of a large and shallow lake suffering from eutrophication. During the last 20 years, the quality and general usability of water in Pyhäjärvi have shown considerable variation driven by both a variety of human activities and climate-related factors such as wet and dry years. The lake has been thoroughly studied for decades and has been the object of c...

From a selection of four kinds of post and core systems, including a fiber post and composite resin core, the purpose of this study was to determine the most effective system for the restoration of endodontically treated teeth with 0 mm of coronal tooth structure. For experimental abutment teeth, typical human maxillary central incisor teeth were modeled using bovine mandibular incisor teeth. B...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cavity design and the type of pulp capping materials on the fracture resistance of Class II composite restorations. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty freshly extracted, sound molar teeth were selected for the study. A dovetail cavity on the mesio-occlusal and a slot cavity on disto-occlusal surfaces of each tooth were prepared, and th...

variation of frequency and voltage by load changes in a microgrid is a challenge in droop control method. centralized restoration frequency or voltage in a microgrid requires communication link and therefore affects the advantage of decentralized droop control such as reliability, simplicity and inexpensiveness. this paper proposes a decentralized method that restores the frequency of a microgr...

In this paper, we study restoration mechanisms to handle channel and link failures in an optical wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) wavelength-routed wide-area backbone network based on a mesh topology. The solution uses a small number of tunable lasers to provide restoration capability. We consider two types of failures: link failures and individual channel (or wavelength) failures that occ...
