The massive integration of distributed renewable energy resources is a reality in the current power system. In this new context with greater volatility on generation side it required to incorporate assets provide additional flexibility system accommodate as much possible. Among these assets, DC or AC flexible links could play key role managing flows within radial distribution systems. These con...

APPLICABILITY OF NORMAL FORMS IN HYPERLINK DATABASE STRUCTURE

In our study we assume that the latency of food safety policy making renders the issue an ideal case to study the mobilization by challenger organization through the Internet. By analyzing online issue networks in the field of food safety in the UK, the US, Germany and Switzerland we seek to reveal food safety issue networks in the Internet and determine the dominant actors and coalitions. We d...

This paper presents the full dynamics and control of arbitrary number of quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) transporting a rigid body. The rigid body is connected to the quadrotors via flexible cables where each flexible cable is modeled as a system of arbitrary number of seriallyconnected links. It is shown that a coordinate-free form of equations of motion can be derived for the complet...

We review the elasticity of flexible and stiff polymer networks with permanent cross-links and synthesize these results into a unifying polymer chain network model. This framework is then used to address how the network elasticity becomes modified when the network cross-linking is thermoreversible in nature, changes in the stability of the network with deformation, and the effect of a variable ...
