Abstract In 2004, the National Patient Safety Agency (NSPA) released a safety alert relating to the management and use of infusion devices in England and W...

An economic estimation of a network of distributed energy resources (DERs) forming a power delivery system in an Indian scenario has been made. The mathematical analysis is based on the application of real valued cultural algorithm (RVCA). The RVCA-evaluated total annual cost for power delivery networks has been obtained utilizing both solar and fuel cells as DERs along with a battery energy st...

Distributed energy resources (DERs) can serve as non-wire alternatives to capacity expansion by managing peak load to avoid or defer traditional expansion projects. In this paper, we study a planning problem that co-optimizes DERs investment and operation (e.g., energy efficiency, energy storage, demand response, solar photovoltaic) and the timing of capacity expansion. We formulate the problem...

Several benefits can be gained from implementation of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) in distributed systems. This paper proposes the application of Shuffled Frog Leaping Algorithm to optimally determination the location and size of multiple DERs considering a multi-objective benchmark. Several objectives including loss minimization, reduction in power purchased from the network and upgrade...

Greater penetration of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) in power networks requires coordination strategies that allow for self-adjustment of contributions in a network of DERs, owing to variability in generation and demand. In this article, a distributed scheme is proposed that enables a DER in a network to arrive at viable power reference commands that satisfies the DERs local constraints o...

Residential microgrids (MGs) may host a large number of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs). The strategy that maximizes the revenue for each individual DER is the one in which the DER operates at capacity, injecting all available power into the grid. However, when the DER penetration is high and the consumption low, this strategy may lead to power surplus that causes voltage increase over reco...

BACKGROUND Emotion dysregulation is a unifying dimension of several psychopathological symptoms such as prolonged dysphoria, labile mood, high anger, persistent fear and excessive worry. Deficits in emotion regulation (ER), or emotion dysregulation, appear to be relevant to the development, maintenance, and promising treatment target in a broad range of mental disorders. The Difficulties in Emo...

Research suggests that difficulties in emotion regulation are an important correlate of nonsuicidal selfinjury (NSSI) in adults. Research examining this link in adolescents is limited by the lack of comprehensive instruments to assess difficulties in emotion regulation. Against this background, the aims of the current study were to (a) confirm the six-factor structure of the Difficulties in Emo...

objective : the purpose of this study was to determine the construct validity and reliability of the two forms of the persian version of the difficulties in emotion regulation scale (ders-6 & ders-5-revised) in a clinical sample. methods : the clinical sample consisted of 181 patients diagnosed with functional gi disorders (fgid) who referred to the digestive psychosomatic clinic in isfahan in ...
