the issue of unit commitment is one of the most important economic plans in power system. in modern and traditional power systems, in addition to being economical of the planning, the issue of security in unit operation is also of great importance. hence power system operation confronts units’ participation and input considering network security constrains. the issue of units’ participation is ...

In this paper, a new method for modelling and estimation of reliability parameters of power transformer components in distribution and transmission voltage levels for preventive-corrective maintenance schedule of transformers is proposed. In this method, with optimal estimation of Weibull distribution parameters using least squares method and input data uncertainty reduction, failure rate and p...

A parametric analysis is an analysis whose input and output are parametrized with a number of parameters which can be instantiated to abstract properties after analysis is completed. This paper proposes to use Cousot and Cousot’s Cardinal power domain to capture dependencies of analysis output on its input and obtain a parametric analysis by parametrizing a base analysis. We illustrate the meth...

background: although stabilization ponds and lagoons are suitable treatment processes due to simplicity of operation and low per capital costs, the effluents of these systems have too high of a total suspended solids concentration to be discharged into receiving waters. this problem is mainly caused by algae. in this study, an electro-coagulation reactor was examined to re­move algae from the f...

A new approach for designing an ultra wideband (UWB) CMOS low noise amplifier (LNA) is presented. The aim of this design is to achieve a low noise figure, reasonable power gain and low power consumption in 3.1-10.6 GHz. Also, the figure of merit (FOM) is significantly improved at 180nm technology compared to the other state-of-the-art designs. Improved π-network and T-network are used to obt...

in this study an ultra-broad band, low-power, and high-gain cmos distributed amplifier (cmos-da) utilizing a new gain-cell based on the inductively peaking cascaded structure is presented. it is created bycascading of inductively coupled common-source (cs) stage and regulated cascode configuration (rgc).the proposed three-stage da is simulated in 0.13 μm cmos process. it achieves flat and high ...

In this paper a novel very high performance current mirror is presented. It favorably benefits from such excellent parameters as: Ultra high output resistance (36.9GΩ), extremely low input resistance (0.0058Ω), low output (~0.18V) and low input voltage (~0.18V) operation, very low power consumption (20μW), very low offset current (1pA), ultra wide current dynamic range (150dB), and ultra high a...
