This paper presents results about power system stabilizers (PSS) coordination in multi-machine power systems. Due to their versatility, power system stabilizers have been employed extensively to enhance the power oscillations damping. One of the main tasks within this context is to estimate the best PSS’s parameters. In this paper, this is solved by a neural network. The applicability of the pr...

A 1 2 -arc-transitive graph is a vertexand edgebut not arc-transitive graph. In all known constructions of quartic 1 2 -arc-transitive graphs, vertex stabilizers are isomorphic to Z 2,Z 2 2 or to D8. In this article, for each positive integer m ≥ 1, an infinite family of quartic 1 2 -arctransitive graphs having vertex stabilizers isomorphic to Z m

We report on the use of (kraft and soda) lignins as polymeric amphiphiles for the stabilization of emulsions. Lignins’ phase behavior in oil/water systems is presented and explained in terms of their molecular affinities. Emulsions with various oils (including crude oils) were formulated and their properties were rationalized in terms of lignin surface activity as a function of pH and salinity....

Endodontic implants or stabilizers are metallic extension of the tooth root into the bone. With increase in the scope of implantology in dentistry, the endodontic implants help provide a conservative treatment method to retain a natural teeth rather than replacing it. These endodontic implants are inserted through the previously prepared canals of the tooth into the osseous portion of the perio...

BACKGROUND Despite the use of mood stabilizers, a significant proportion of patients with bipolar affective disorder experience frequent relapses. A pilot study of cognitive therapy (CT) specifically designed to prevent relapses for bipolar affective disorder showed encouraging results when used in conjunction with mood stabilizers. This article reports the outcome of a randomized controlled st...

INTRODUCTION Human serum albumin (HSA) is a monomeric multi-domain protein that possesses an extraordinary binding capacity. It plays an important role in storing and transporting endogenous substances, metabolites, and drugs throughout the human circulatory system. Clinically, HSA is used to treat a variety of diseases such as hypovolemia, shock, burns, hemorrhage, and trauma in critically ill...

This paper presents a modified Iteration Particle Swarm Optimization (IPSO) algorithm to tune optimal gains of a Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) type multiple stabilizers and non-smooth nonlinear parameters (such as saturation limits) for multi machine power system, simultaneously. The problem of robustly tuning of PID based multiple stabilizer design is formulated as an optimization pro...

Propylisopropylacetic acid (PIA) is a constitutional isomer of valproic acid (VPA). It has previously been found to be a weak antiepileptic, but in common with mood stabilizers, causes inositol depletion and growth cone spreading, suggesting the basis of a new series of mood stabilizers. To assess this possibility, we have compared the effects of racemic (R,S)-PIA and its individual enantiomers...
