Figure 1. A diagram depicting th e hybrid biological/organic photochemical half-cell. This report describes our progress towards the design, assembly, characterization, and optimization of a biological/organic hybrid photochemical halfcell. This device will couple PS I, which efficiently captures and stores energy derived from sunlight, with either an [FeFe]-H2ase or a [NiFe]-H2ase, which can g...

The paper proposes design of voltage source inverters for renewable energy applications such as HEV. The wind and solar are growing energy sources to world this sources to be converted alternating one for grid interfacing. Conventional inverters are electronic thyristor which has some drawbacks. To improve its efficiency and performance MOSFET based inverters using controllers has been designed...

The power management controller of a hybrid vehicle orchestrates the operation of onboard energy sources, namely engine and auxiliary power source with the goal of maximizing performance objectives such as the fuel economy. The paper focuses on optimization of the power management strategy of the refuse truck with parallel hydraulic hybrid powertrain. The high power density of hydraulic compone...

This paper presents an analysis of the energy storage requirements for hybrid railway vehicles. Autonomous hybrid railway vehicles combine two power sources. The conventional diesel primemover is supplemented with power derived from an on-board energy storage device. The device is discharged during high power demand, and may be recharged through regenerative braking. The energy savings that are...

Introduction: In this study, organ radiation doses were calculated for the renal agent 99mTc-DTPA in children. Bio-kinetic energy of 99mTc-DTPA was evaluated by scintigraphy and estimates for absorbed radiation dose were provided using standard medical internal radiation dosimetry (MIRD) techniques.Material and Methods: In this applied research, fourteen children patients (6 males and 8 females...

This paper proposes a photovoltaic (PV) and battery interfaced series hybrid active power filter (SHAPF), which consists of series active power filter and an LC shunt passive filter. The main benefits of the proposed system provide the compensation against the voltage harmonics, current harmonics and voltage interruption for the whole day. A series active power filter (SAPF) demands a source of...

This paper concentrates on the control of hybrid fuelcell (FC)/energystorage distributed generation (DG) systems under voltage sag in distribution systems. The proposed control strategy makes hybrid DG system work properly when a voltage disturbance occurs in distribution system, and it stays connected to the main grid. This controller determines the supercapacitor power that should be generate...

In a hybrid energy system consisting of renewable sources of energy, there should be some storage facility or backup generation to maintain continuity of supply to the load when renewable source alone is not sufficient. The objective of this paper is to present one of such generating system that is capable of acting as a backup generator. This paper presents the modeling and simulation of a mic...

A hybrid wind/ fuel cell generation system is designed to supply power demand. The aim of this design is to minimize the total cost of the hybrid system over an expected 20 years of operation. The optimization problem is solved aimed at providing a reliable supply for the consumer’s demand. The system consists of fuel cells, some wind units, some electrolyzers, a reformer, an anaerobic reactor ...

In this work the hybrid Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) [1] algorithm PLANTS [2][3][4] (Protein-Ligand ANT System) for the task of structureand ligand-based drug design is introduced. Like other ACO-based approaches it is inspired by the behaviour of real ants finding a shortest path between their nest and a food source. The ants use indirect communication in the form of pheromone trails, which m...
