Allocation of Distributed Generators Using Parallel Grey Wolf Optimization
(IEEE, 2021)
This paper solves the allocation problem of distributed generators (DGs) in smart grids utilizing a grey wolf optimization (GWO) algorithm. By parallelizing GWO, it presents the impact of using various number of processors ...
The in-vivo assessment of Turkish propolis and its nano form on testicular damage induced by cisplatin
(Elsevier, 2021)
Objective: Chemotherapeutic drugs, such as cisplatin (CP), which are associated with oxidative stress and apoptosis, may adversely affect the reproductive system. This study tests whether administration of propolis and ...
Design and Practical Implementation of a Parallel-Switched Power Factor Correction Boost Converter
(IEEE, 2021)
In the past years, applications of Power Factor Correction (PFC) boost converter have increased significantly. One recent application field that requires an efficient PFC boost converter is the Wireless Power Transfer ...
Phase transitions of the variety of random-field Potts models
(Elsevier, 2021)
The phase transitions of random-field q-state Potts models in d = 3 dimensions are studied by renormalization-group theory by exact solution of a hierarchical lattice and, equivalently, approximate Migdal-Kadanoff solutions ...
Electric-field induced phase transitions in capillary electrophoretic systems
(Aip Publishing, 2021)
The movement of particles in a capillary electrophoretic system under electroosmotic flow was modeled using Monte Carlo simulation with the Metropolis algorithm. Two different cases with repulsive and attractive interactions ...
"Gruff Old Scientists" and "Rough Old Scholars": The Caricature of Intellectualism in Aldous Huxley's Short Stories
(Masaryk University, 2021)
This essay examines Aldous Huxley's short stories from early "Happily Ever After" to more accomplished "Chawdron" and "The Rest Cure". My analysis shows that criticism of perverted, one-dimensional intellectualism is one ...
Application of fluorescence technique for understanding film formation from polymer latexes and composites
(Elsevier, 2021)
This chapter summarizes the application of fluorescence technique to understand all aspects of film formation using both pure polymer latexes and polymer nanocomposites. Transient fluorescence, steady state fluorescence, ...
Orbital Characterization Study for the Hydrodynamic Micro Tweezers: Simulated Performance with a Passive Particle
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2021)
Trapping and selecting a particle intelligently is aspired for the robotic systems in bioengineering. The key element of the process is not to damage the sample when working at a micro-scale. With physical damage, not only ...
In silico investigation of wound healing potential of some compounds in tubers of Asphodelus species with GSK3-? protein
(Marmara Univ, 2021)
Wound healing is a process that involves biochemical processes such as inflammation and cell proliferation and is controlled by many proteins. It is known that one of the most effective factors in this process is the ...
Evaluating the International Renewable Energy Agency through the lens of social constructivism
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021)
It is widely accepted that renewable energy will contribute to building a more sustainable world, and a transition from a fossil fuel-dominated to a renewable-based energy system is inevitable. However, only 5% of the ...
