abstract: one the most important problems in recent sensitive loads is the quality of voltage. for this challenge custom power devices are used in distribution systems. dynamic voltage restorer (dvr) is a custom power device that improves voltage, decrease power distortion, filter harmonics and balance distributed generations (dgs) with low voltage distribution system. in this paper, a new algo...

In this study, the performance of an irreversible regenerative Brayton cycle is sought through power maximizations using finite-time thermodynamic concept in finite-size components. Optimizations are performed using a genetic algorithm. In order to take into account the finite-time and finite-size concepts in the current problem, a dimensionless mass-flow rate parameter is used to deploy ti...

the ever increasing rate of power consumption has led to an increase in public exposure to extremely low frequency magnetic fields (elf-mfs) and brought severe concerns about their health effects. considering previous studies and the facts about potential health effects of these fields, the present study aimed to evaluate the elf-mf flux densities from power distribution lines near hospitals i...

Abstract. In this paper, we propose to study a generalized form of the exponential power distribution which contains others in the literature as special cases. This unifying exponential power distribution is characterized by a parameter ω and a function h(ω) which regulates the tail behavior of the distribution, thus making it more flexible and suitable for modeling than the usual normal di...

We consider the existence of pairs of probability ensembles which may be efficiently distinguished from each other given k samples but cannot be efficiently distinguished given k0 < k samples. It is well known that in any such pair of ensembles it cannot be that both are efficiently computable (and that such phenomena cannot exist for nonuniform classes of distinguishers, say, polynomial-size c...
