A Heuristic Methods-Based Power Distribution System Optimization Toolbox
(Mdpi, 2022)
This paper proposes a toolbox for simulating the effective integration of renewable energy sources into distribution systems. The toolbox uses four heuristic methods: the particle swarm optimization (PSO) method, and three ...
Competition and moral behavior: A meta-analysis of forty-five crowd-sourced experimental designs
(Natl Acad Sciences, 2023)
Does competition affect moral behavior? This fundamental question has been debated among leading scholars for centuries, and more recently, it has been tested in experimental studies yielding a body of rather inconclusive ...
Spontaneous Past and Future Thinking About the COVID-19 Pandemic Across 14 Countries: Effects of Individual and Country-Level COVID-19 Impact Indicators
(Amer Psychological Assoc, 2022)
In 2020, the world was amid a global health crisis-the COVID-19 pandemic. Nations had varying levels of morbidity and mortality and adopted different measures to prevent the spread of infection. Effects of the pandemic on ...
Thinking multiculturality in the age of hybrid threats: Converging cyber and physical security in Akkuyu nuclear power plant
(Korean Nuclear Soc, 2022)
Nuclear Power Plants (NPPs) are the most protected facilities among all critical infrastructures (CIs). In
addition to physical security, cyber security becomes a significant concern for NPPs since swift digitalization
and ...
The availability of emergency contraception from family health centers in Turkey
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2022)
Reproductive health care, including contraception, is a fundamental aspect of any public health care system and it is important to reduce barriers to access to all forms of contraception, including emergency contraception. ...
A it-Electron Rich Cage via the Friedel-Crafts Reaction
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2022)
A prism-shaped cage was obtained via the Friedel-Crafts reaction in a 2:3 mixture of trisfuryl and bis-isopropenyl precursors, in a remarkable yield of 40% considering six C-C bonds formed in a one-pot manner. The cage ...
First-principle validation of Fourier's law in d=1, 2, 3 classical systems
(Elsevier, 2023)
We numerically study the thermal transport in the classical inertial nearest-neighbor XY ferromagnet in d = 1, 2, 3, the total number of sites being given by N = Ld, where L is the linear size of the system. For the thermal ...
Renormalization-group theory of the Heisenberg model in d dimensions
(Elsevier, 2022)
The classical Heisenberg model has been solved in spatial d dimensions, exactly in d = 1 and by the Migdal-Kadanoff approximation in d > 1, by using a Fourier-Legendre expansion. The phase transition temperatures, the ...
Parental input during book reading and toddlers' elicited and spontaneous communicative interactions
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2022)
This study examined the relation between characteristics of parental input, particularly focusing on questions and pointing gestures directed to toddlers during book reading, and toddlers' elicited and spontaneous communicative ...
Motor skills, language development, and visual processing in preterm and full-term infants
(Springer, 2023)
Language development is intertwined with motor development. This study examined how visual processing might mediate the relation between language development and motor skills in preterm (PT, n = 34, Mean gestational age = ...
