In the most recent heuristic methods, the high potential buses for capacitor placement are initially identified and ranked using loss sensitivity factors (LSFs) or power loss index (PLI). These factors or indices help to reduce the search space of the optimization procedure, but they may not always indicate the appropriate placement of capacitors. This paper proposes an efficient approach for t...

The first step in dealing with the behavior of an engine on NG mode is the installation of a suitable gas fueling system on the engine. Two generations of gas fueling systems which were studied and installed on research engine were Mixer type and Sequential system type. The results, including performance, emissions and fuel consumption, were recorded and analyzed. The results showed that the...

This paper presents an element of a 2×2-element array antenna for Inmarsat BGAN/GPS applications. The element is an axial mode printed quadrifilar helical antenna that has been integrated with a compact feed network to provide sequential phase rotation for circular polarization (CP) radiation. The novel integrated lumped-element feed network is designed to provide a balanced RF power to the fou...

the chemical speciation of heavy metals (arsenic, chromium, copper, lead, zinc and tin) in the sediments offormer tin mining catchment bestari jaya, peninsular malaysia was determined by using the latest version of the community bureau of reference, usually called the bcr 3-step sequential extraction procedure. furthermore, a fourth step was introduced for digestion and analysis of the residue....

in a subclass of the scale-parameter exponential family, we consider the sequential pointestimation of a function of the scale parameter under the loss function given as the sum of the weightedsquared error loss and a linear cost. for a fully sequential sampling scheme, second order expansions areobtained for the expected sample size as well as for the regret of the procedure. the former resear...

the problems of sequential change-point have several important applications in quality control, signal processing, and failure detection in industry and finance. we discuss a bayesian approach in the context of statistical process control: at an unknown time $tau$, the process behavior changes and the distribution of the data changes from p0 to p1. two cases are considered: (i) p0 and p1 are fu...
