Main contribution of this work is improving transient stability by installing Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) in power systems. For do this, Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) has been selected. Also a novel structure has been suggested to improve classic Harmony Search algorithm and suggested improved Harmony Search (iHS) algorithm. This algorithm has been used to obtain UPFC paramet...

in this paper the interior noise level of a vehicle due to structural vibration, named structure borne noise, as a part of nvh analysis has been investigated. first structural analysis is performed and vibrational behavior of structure carried out due to power plant excitations. then interior acoustic cavity response for such excitation and resultant noise is determined. vibrational analysis is...

In the present article a numerical procedure is developed for dynamic analysis of single and double autofrettage of thick–walled FG cylinders under transient loading. The governing differential equations are discretized and presented in explicit Lagrangian formalism. The explicit transient solution of discrete equations are obtained on the meshed region and results for stress and strain distrib...

An SPICE compatible model for multiple coupled nonuniform lossless transmission lines (TL's) is presented. The method of the modeling is based on the steplines approximation of the nonuniform TLs and quasi-TEM assumptions. Using steplines approximation the system of coupled nonuniform TLs is subdivided into arbitrary large number of coupled uniform lines (steplines) with different characteristi...

In this paper, we semi-automatically classify clean and debris-covered ice for 145 glaciers within Hohe Tauern National Park in the Austrian Alps for the years 1985, 2003, and 2013. We also map the end-summer transient snowline (TSL), which approximates the annual Equilibrium Line Altitude (ELA). By comparing our results with the Austrian Glacier Inventories from 1969 and 1998, we calculate a m...

background: transient and stable transformation of host plants are the common techniques to produce transgenic plants. however, the main drawback of stable transformation is the fact that it takes quite a long time to produce a transgenic line. while, transient gene expression is a quick method to produce recombinant proteins in plants.  objective: the main goal of the present study was to eval...

with increasing the presence of microgrids (mgs) in the power systems, investigating the mg stability during transient faults is necessary. this study investigates the transient stability analysis of a mg supplied by multiple inverter interfaced distributed generations (iidgs) during fault. the transient stability of a mg is highly depends on the iidgs control strategy. a mg, simulated on matla...
