In this paper, a single-ended fault location method is presented based on a circuit breaker operation using the frequencies of traveling waves. The proposed method receives the required data from voltage traveling waves with the aid of Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and Wavelet Transform. Then, the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) identifies fault type and determines its location. In order to eval...

Boiler-turbines are one of the most important parts in power generation plants. The safety problem in such systems has always been a special concern. This paper discusses the application of control reconfig uration by fault-hiding approach for a boiler-turbine unit. In Fault-hiding approach, after occurrence of a fault, nominal controller of the system remains unchanged; instead, a reconfigurat...

Background: Despite years of continuous research, maternal mortality due to preeclampsia is still a serious threat. Researchers believe that preeclampsia is a multifactorial disease and proposed many risk factors including immunological factors for it. Given the description of preeclampsia as an excessive response of the immune system, the relationship between preeclampsia and immunological cha...

lectins that agglutinate red blood cells (rbcs) were demonstrated in anopheles stephensi mosquito midgut extracts using human (four groups: a, b, ab and o, rh+) rat, sheep and rabbit blood cells. only rabbit rbcs showed agglutination reaction against the midgut extracts. significant differences in hemagglutinin titers and carbohydrate specifity were detected between male and female mosquitoes a...

Nowadays, faults and failures are increasing especially in complex systems such as Network-on-Chip (NoC) based Systems-on-a-Chip due to the increasing susceptibility and decreasing feature sizes. On the other hand, fault-tolerant routing algorithms have an evident effect on tolerating permanent faults and improving the reliability of a Network-on-Chip based system. This paper presents reliabili...

HSFDONES is an expert system fault diagnosis which makes the fault diagnosis working more intelligently, HSFDONES uses the ontologybased self-leaning theory and technology to build fault diagnosis expert system. The fault diagnosis knowledge structure is defined and the relevant structure ontology and core fault ontology is researched in HSFDONES; the fault diagnosis data warehouse is built, th...
