The parameters in Monte Carlo (MC) event generators are tuned on experimental measurements by evaluating the goodness of fit between data and MC predictions. relative importance each measurement is adjusted manually an often time-consuming, iterative process to meet different needs. In this work, we introduce several optimization formulations algorithms with new decision criteria for streamlini...

We summarise the results of a study performed within GENIE global analysis framework, revisiting bare-nucleon cross-section tuning and, in particular, a) inclusive cross-section, b) low-multiplicity inelastic channels (single-pion and double-pion production), c) relative contributions resonance non-resonance processes to these final states. The same was with several different comprehensive mode...

Using thermoelectric compatibility, efficient thermoelectric generators are rationally designed. With examples, compatible and incompatible systems are explained and materials proposed for targeted development. The compatibility factor explains why segmentation of TAGS with SnTe or PbTe produces little extra power, while filled skutterudite increases the efficiency from 10.5% to 13.6%. High eff...

In the restructured environment of electricity market, firstly the generating companies and the customers are looking for maximizing their profit and secondly independent system operator is looking for the stability of the power network and maximizing social welfare. In this paper, a one way auction in the electricity market for the generator companies is considered in both perfect and imperfec...

In this paper, a new type of multi-variable compensation control method for the wind energy conversion systems (WECS) is presented. Based on wind energy conversion systems, combining artificial neural network (ANN) control and PID, a new type of PID NN intelligent controller for steady state torque of the wind generator is designed, by which the steady state torque output is regulated to track ...

To better understand the wake effects at low Reynolds numbers, large-eddy simulations of a 50% reaction low-pressure turbine stage and linear cascade with two different bar generators were carried out for chord number 50,000. For chosen front-loaded high-lift airfoil, endwall structures are stronger than more traditional mid-loaded moderate-lift airfoils. By comparing results generator results,...

The May spinning top generator was adapted to a modified Henderson tube for producing large aerosol particles (>4 mum) to obtain almost exclusive upper respiratory tract deposition of infectious aerosols in exposed mice. The system was installed in a biological safety cabinet to permit experimentation with pathogens. A novel mechanism utilizing parts from a machinists micrometer and the mechani...
