A wind farm is a collection of wind turbines built in an area to provide electricity. Wind power is a renewable energy resource and an alternative to non-renewable fossil fuels. In this paper impact of wind farms in power system reliability is investigate and a new procedure for reliability assessment of wind farms in HL1 level is proposed. In proposed procedure, application of Fuzzy – Markov f...

landsat data for 1992, 2000, and 2013 land use changes for ekbatan dam watershed was simulated through ca-markov” model. two classification methods were initially used, viz. the maximum likelihood (mal) and support vector machine (svm). although both methods showed high overall accuracy and kappa coefficient, visually mal failed in separating land uses, particularly built up and dry lands.there...

due to the effective role of markov models in customer relationship management (crm), there is a lack of comprehensive literature review which contains all related literatures. in this paper the focus is on academic databases to find all the articles that had been published in 2011 and earlier. one hundred articles were identified and reviewed to find direct relevance for applying markov models...

OBJECTIVE To develop an empiric natural-history model that can predict quantitative changes in the laboratory values and clinical characteristics of patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD), to be used to calibrate an individual microsimulation model. METHODS The authors report the development of a stochastic model that uses cubic splines to interpolate between observed laboratory values ...

A great disparity exists between the direction of travel demand forecasting by researchers, and the travel demand models used by transportation planning organizations. Activity-based models of travel demand have become increasingly studied in the academic realm and significant advances have been made in recent years. However, travel demand forecasting tools used in practice have lagged behind, ...

This paper describes the rainfall data generation processes, which were used to simplify the recharge model developed by Khazai and Spink. The principles of techniques used for single and two sites generation are discussed. The application of the techniques for extending the rainfall records at the existing stations and increasing arbitrarily the numbers of rain gauges within the catchment are ...

with regard to the society’s need for complicated software and high level of expenses on its development, it is necessary to take all stakeholders’ requirements and the demands into consideration, before any investments and put on the design and utilization stages. software architecture is a technical description of a software system that indicates components and their relationships between the...
