Heuristic Optimization Approaches for Capacitor Sizing and Placement: A Case Study in Kazakhstan
(Mdpi, 2022)
Two methods for estimating the near-optimal positions and sizes of capacitors in radial distribution networks are presented. The first model assumes fixed-size capacitors, while the second model assumes controllable ...
Blockchain Systems in Embedded Internet of Things: Systematic Literature Review, Challenges Analysis, and Future Direction Suggestions
(Mdpi, 2022)
Internet of Things (IoT) environments can extensively use embedded devices. Without the participation of consumers; tiny IoT devices will function and interact with one another, but their operations must be reliable and ...
Secure Transmission for THz-Empowered RIS-Assisted Non-Terrestrial Networks
(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2023)
The non-terrestrial networks (NTNs) are recognized as a key component to provide cost-effective and high-capacity ubiquitous connectivity in the future wireless communications. In this paper, we investigate the secure ...
Profitability and drug discovery
(Oxford Univ Press, 2022)
Pharmaceutical firms are highly profitable due to high markups enabled by high drug prices. This is justified by the argument that high profits provide incentives for innovation and help fund high research and development ...
Spin-s spin-glass phases in the d=3 Ising model
(Amer Physical Soc, 2021)
All higher-spin (s >= 1/2) Ising spin glasses are studied by renormalization-group theory in spatial dimension d = 3, exactly on a d = 3 hierarchical model and, simultaneously, by the Migdal-Kadanoff approximation on the ...
Nematic ordering in the Heisenberg spin-glass system in three dimensions
(Amer Physical Soc, 2023)
Nematic ordering, where the spins globally align along a spontaneously chosen axis irrespective of direction, occurs in spin-glass systems of classical Heisenberg spins in d = 3. In this system where the nearest-neighbor ...
THE INFINITE WARDROBE: FEMALE CONSUMERS' VALUE PERCEPTIONS REGARDING COLLABORATIVE CONSUMPTION OF APPAREL
(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2021)
Understanding the potential factors and underlying mechanisms to engage in collaborative consumption practices has become a significant concern for academics and practitioners. However, collaborative consumption research ...
Cryogenic X-ray crystallographic studies of biomacromolecules at Turkish Light Source Turkish DeLight
(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2023)
X-ray crystallography is a robust and powerful structural biology technique that provides high-resolution atomic structures of biomacromolecules. Scientists use this technique to unravel mechanistic and structural details ...
A Fire Evacuation and Control System in Smart Buildings Based on the Internet of Things and a Hybrid Intelligent Algorithm
(Mdpi, 2023)
Concerns about fire risk reduction and rescue tactics have been raised in light of recent incidents involving flammable cladding systems and fast fire spread in high-rise buildings worldwide. Thus, governments, engineers, ...
Inter-trial effects in priming of pop-out: Comparison of computational updating models
(Public Library Science, 2021)
In visual search tasks, repeating features or the position of the target results in faster response times. Such inter-trial 'priming' effects occur not just for repetitions from the immediately preceding trial but also ...
