The future distribution network comprising different energy carriers will include small-scale energy resources (SSERs) and loads, known as a Networked multi-carrier microgrid (NMCMG). This concept not only leads to an efficient reduction in operation costs, but also encompasses the energy transformation between gas and electric networks at combined nodes, as well as district heating networks. I...

Hexagrid structural system is an innovated system with structural behavior which is similar to a tubular system. In this paper, a numerical study is conducted to estimate the seismic performance of horizontal hexagrid concerning the combined horizontal and vertical hexagrid, tubular and diagrid structural systems. First 30 and 50 story buildings are modeled using ETABS, then pushover and nonlin...

Biomass gasification is the process of converting biomass into a combustible gas suitable for use in boilers, engines, and turbines to produce combined cooling, heat, and power. This paper presents a detailed model of a biomass gasification system and designs a multigeneration energy system that uses the biomass gasification process for generating combined cooling, heat, and electricity. Energy...

Adenosine deaminase (ADA) deficiency results in the accumulation of toxic metabolites that destroy the immune system, causing severe combined immunodeficiency (ADA-SCID), often referred to as the "bubble boy" disease. Strimvelis is a European Medicines Agency approved gene therapy for ADA-SCID patients without a suitable bone marrow donor.

unknown noise and artifacts present in medical signals with  non-linear fuzzy filter will be estimate and then removed. an adaptive neuro-fuzzy interference system which has a nonlinear  structure presented  for the noise function prediction by before samples. this paper is about a neuro-fuzzy method to estimate unknown noise of electrocardiogram (ecg) signal. adaptive neural combined with fuzz...

This paper presents a Multi-MetaHeuristic combined Ant Colony System (ACS)-Travelling Salesman Problem(TSP) algorithm for solving the TSP. We introduce genetic algorithm in ACS-TSP to search solutions space for dealing with the early stagnation problem of the traveling salesman problem. Moreover, we present a new strategy of Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) coupled with Nearest Neighbor(NN) to const...

Automation is a step beyond mechanisation, to increase productivity and to improve the quality. Automated manufacturing systems operate in the factory on the physical product to perform operations such as processing, assembly, inspection, or material handling and sometimes accomplishing more than one of these operations in the same system. One of the strategies for the automation is combination...
