In this study the effect of thermal stress on the torsional buckling of double walled carbon nanotubes is investigated. Moreover based on nonlocal continuum mechanic the buckling governing equations are obtained and equilibrium of Equations is generalized to double wall nanotubes. Also in this study the elastic medium, small scale effect and van der Walls force are considered. Also for simulati...

In this article, an effective method to control a power system during emergency conditions is presented. Based on Fuzzy Linear Programming (FLP), a new technique is developed to solve the Load Shedding and Generation Reallocation (LSGR) optimization Problem. The objective function consists of terms of load curtailments and deviations in generation schedules. The constraints are power system var...

Wind power generation is variable and uncertain. In the power systems with high penetration of wind power, determination of equivalent operating reserve is the main concern of systems operator. In this paper, a model is proposed to determine operating reserves in simultaneous market clearing of energy and reserve by stochastic programming based on scenarios generated via Monte Carlo simulation ...

in the current engineering practices, buildings are commonly designed for an effective lifetime of 50 years. this lifetime can increase the cost of buildings with short lifetimes and can reduce the safety level of buildings with large lifetimes. in this paper, a “service-life factor” has been defined. applying this factor into the nominal values of live, earthquake, wind, and snow loads, the ef...

Load modeling is widely used in power system studies. Two types of modeling, namely, static and dynamic, are employed. The current industrial practice is the static modeling. Static modelss are algebraic equations of active and reactive power changes in terms of voltage and frequency deviations. In this paper, a component based on static modeling is employed in which the aggregate model is deri...

the karkheh dam reservoir with a capacity of more than 5 billion cubic meter is the largest dam in iran with both agricultural and drinking usages. its hydrodynamics and water quality were modeled and simulated to analyze the total maximum daily load (tmdl) of total dissolved solids (tds). the simulation was supported with measurements of temperature and tds measurements during two years. a lat...
