in this paper, the optimal location and characteristics of tadas dampers in moment resisting steel structures, considering the application of minimum number of tadas dampers in a building as an objective function and the restriction for destruction of main members is studied. genetic algorithm in first generation randomly produces different chromosomes representing unique tadas dampers distribu...

Providing electricity to rural regions is difficult for developing countries, such as Iraq, particularly in remote parts without grid connections. The electrical demands of Zerbattiya, a community southern Iraq near the Iranian border, are discussed this paper. proposed system includes wind turbines, solar panels, diesel engines, batteries, etc. This study suggests techno-economic viable and op...

This paper presents a tractablemathematical framework to analyze the spectral and energy efficiency of an operator initiated deployment of the small-cells (e.g., femtocells) where the small-cell base stations are deliberately positioned around the edge of the macrocell. The considered deployment facilitates the cell-edge mobile users in terms of their coverage, spectral, and energy efficiency a...

1 By following the scheme of the Grid Empowered Molecular Simulator (GEMS) a 2 new O2 + N2 intermolecular potential, built on ab initio calculations and experimental 3 (scattering and second virial coe cient) data, has been coupled with an appropriate 4 intramolecular one. On the resulting potential energy surface detailed rate coe cients 5 for collision induced vibrational energy exchanges hav...

It is projected that, in the following years, wind-energy industry will maintain its rapid growth over last few decades. Such has been accompanied by desirability and demand for larger wind turbines aimed at harnessing more power. However, fact that massive turbine blades inherently experience increased fatigue ultimate loads no secret, which compromise their structural lifecycle. Accordingly, ...

Recently, renewable energy resources (RESs) have been utilized to supply electricity remote areas, instead of the conventional methods electrical production. In this paper, optimal design a standalone hybrid RES comprising photovoltaic (PV), wind turbine (WT), and biomass sources as well an storage system, such hydro-pumped is studied. The problem sizing generating units in proposed system form...

In response to global energy problems (e.g., the oil crisis, the Fukushima accident, the Paris Agreement), the South Korean government has executed a strict renewable energy plan to decrease the country’s dependence on fossil fuel. Public facilities, such as international airports, which use substantial amounts of electricity, are the most in need of government regulation. In this study, we att...
