the share of dc-based renewable energy resources (rers) and electricity storage systems are increasing due to developments of smart grid technologies. moreover, the share of dc-based load has rapid growth due to significant developments of power electronic technologies. therefore, a more flexible power system is required for efficient integration of emerging loads and generators. in this paper,...

Recently, a new notion of cooperation was proposed to solve multi-channel coordination problems. When a transmit-receive pair wishes to initiate communication, neighboring nodes share their knowledge of channel usage. This helps to substantially reduce collisions and increases throughput significantly. However, it comes at the cost of increased energy consumption since idle nodes have to stay a...

The paper presents a formulation of the energy management problem for Hybrid Electrical Vehicles and Plug-in Hybrid Electrical Vehicles alike, which permits to consider different cost indexes like fuel consumption, total and primary energy consumption, economic cost or CO2 footprint. In-depth analysis of the problem optimal solution is done by means of the application of the λ plot method, whic...

cotton (gossypium hirsutum l.) as a unique crop in natural fiber production has an important role in texture industry. it has also a large share in oil production for human nutrition and as a protein concentrate for animal feeding. therefore, cotton role in job opportunities in agriculture, industry and business divisions are undeniable. in order to determine the share of each direct and indire...

the main aim in this research has been to determining the growth regime in iran based on an open economy concerning the bhaduri and marglin(1990) model.  this model which has been widely used in post keynesian economics is a kaleckian-post keynesian macroeconomic model which is based on effective demand. bhaduri and marglin(1990) concerning wage as a cost item as well as a component of aggregat...

 Contribution change of factor costs analysis may help managers in decision making and in adjusting to changes. Over the last two decades, production and enhancement of kutum fingerlings have increased in Iran, reaching to more than 229 million fingerlings by 2005, but declined to 187 million from 2005 to 2008. Over the years 2002-2006, a study of fingerling production costs for kutum fish was ...

air pollution is an example of a negative externality; it imposes harmful effects and costs on people other than polluters. in controlling air pollution, efficiency argument implies that, there is a rolefor the government to play. studies show that taxation of fuels can be a powerful indirect instrumentfor controlling air polluticn because of the association between fuels use and emissions. in ...
