(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2010)
The Black Sea region is coming into its own although it is at times a contested and dangerous neighbourhood. Despite heightened interest in the region its real priorities and needs are still being largely ignored by insiders ...
Parallel Contingency Analysis Using Differential Evolution Based Solution For Branch Outage Problem
(IEEE, 2010)
Contingency analysis is one of the most fundamental work an electricity management center operator has to perform regularly. If both bus voltage magnitudes and reactive power flowing on the branches during any type of ...
Reflection Modeling Based Broadband Matching Network Design
(Walter De Gruyter, 2017)
In this paper a new broadband matching network design approach based on reflection modeling is proposed which has two parts: impedance data generation and modeling. In the approach firstly the output impedance data of the ...
Dark Patches in Clustering
(IEEE, 2017)
This survey highlights issues in clustering which hinder in achieving optimal solution or generates inconsistent outputs. We called such malignancies as dark patches. We focus on the issues relating to clustering rather ...
Assessment of Harmonic Distortion on Distribution Feeders with Electric Vehicles and Residential PVs
(IEEE, 2017)
Power-electronic interfacing based devices such as photovoltaic (PV) panels and electric vehicles (EVs) cause voltage/current harmonic distortions on the power grid. The harmonic current profiles from EVs and PVs depend ...
Re-Considering The Linkage Between The Antecedents and Consequences of Happiness
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2016)
A growing number of studies examine the antecedents of happiness but only a handful of them appear to undertake an analysis of its consequences. Employing a unique cross-sectional data set of 413 adults we examine the ...
An integrated approach to concept evaluation in a new product development
(Springer, 2016)
A new product development (NPD) process can be thought as a comprehensive process in which the design is progressively detailed through a series of phases. At the end of each phase a design review is held to approve the ...
Literature of Immigration as a Literature of Europe
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2016)
Any understanding of European literature that does not include immigrant literature results in an incomplete vision of literature created in Europe. As immigrant writers have sought to find a place for themselves and their ...
Surfactant and Metal Ion Effects on the Mechanical Properties of Alginate Hydrogels
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2016)
This paper addresses the controlled variation of the mechanical properties of alginate gel beads by changing the alginate concentration or by adding different surfactants or cross-linking cations. Alginate beads containing ...
An intelligent approach to supplier evaluation in automotive sector
(Springer, 2016)
During the process of supplier evaluation selecting the best desirable supplier is one of the most critical problems of companies since improperly selected suppliers may cause losing time cost and market share of a company. ...
