The available transfer capability indicates how much interarea power transfers can be increased without compromising system security. That is, the available transfer capability is the total transfer capability minus the base case transfer together with adjustments to allow some margin of safety. Much of the experience in computing transfer capabilities concerns line #ow limits and uses DC load ...

There are many spectrum balancing algorithms to combat the deleterious impact of crosstalk interference in digital subscriber lines (DSL) networks. These algorithms aim to find a unique operating point by optimizing the power spectral densities (PSDs) of the modems. Typically, the figure of merit of this optimization is the bit rate, power consumption or margin. This work poses and solves a dif...

Abstract This study aims to analyze the effect of third-party funds, non-performing loans, loan-to-deposit ratio, net interest margin, and operating-income-to-operating-expenses on growth working capital loans disbursement in Indonesian banking industry. Making use purposive sampling technique, thirteen out a population forty six conventional commercial banks listed Stock Exchange were selected...

This paper describes a methodology for obtaining minimum load-shed at selected buses from voltage stability margin viewpoint. The buses for load-shed have been selected based on line voltage stability index and its sensitivities at operating point. Computational algorithms for minimum load-shed have been developed using conventional particle swarm optimization (PSO) and coordinated aggregation ...

Joints for the ITER superconducting Central Solenoid should perform in rapidly varying magnetic field with low losses and low DC resistance. This paper describes the design of the ITER joint and presents its assembly process. Two joints were built and tested at the PTF facility at MIT Test results are presented; losses in transverse and parallel field and the DC performance are discussed. The d...

Background: Most contemporary computing systems are based on Von Neumann architecture. While such systems are efficient in solving certain mathematical problems involving data storage, retrieval and repetitive and predetermined tasks, they are less successful in operating outside of the well-defined envelope they are designed for. Furthermore, interaction with such systems has to happen in a ve...

There is very little theory developed for the calculation of the Transmission Reliability Margin (TRM) in the Available Transfer Capability (ATC) computation of electric power systems. This paper proposes and evaluates several different approaches to the calculation of TRM. The TRM is supposed to account for uncertainty in the operating conditions used in computing Total Transfer Capability (TT...

This paper proposes a fast pattern matching technique using Artificial Neural Networks that takes advantage of the off-line studies to accurately estimate security limits on-line. The precise methodology of operation planners is followed to establish the limits used to train the networks. A hierarchical design combining margin estimators for different security criteria and operating conditions ...

Obtaining a reliable distal margin during anterior colorectal resection can be difficult. In this study, endoscopic transmural tattoos were placed to mark the distal transection point in patients with distal colorectal neoplasms who undergo bowel resection. In the operating room, before surgery, sigmoidoscopy is performed with a 2-channel scope using CO₂ insufflation. Through channel 1, a biops...
