Feeder reconfiguration is a common technique that is used by distribution system operators
during normal or emergency operational planning. By changing the status of switches on the …

The L-shaped junctions in running and gating systems used in aluminum gravity casting
have been investigated. Using computational modeling, a guideline for constructing two …

Pretesting is the most commonly used method for estimating test item difficulty because it
provides highly accurate results that can be applied to assessment development activities. …

Survey of academic literature or papers should be considered with both relevance and
importance of references. Authors cite related references by considering integrity and novelty. …

The roles of reactive power control in a distribution system become essential due to the high
penetration of distributed generations (DG) these days. Proper reactive power control can …

Standardized tests are an important tool in education. During the test preparation process, the
difficulty of each test item needs to be defined, which previously relied on expert validation …

Using soft computing for solving distribution reconfiguration problems were studied for many
years. Genetic algorithm (GA) is one of the most popular technologies in the soft computing …

Rumen fungi are a rich source of enzymes degrading lignocelluloses. XynR8 is a glycosyl
hydrolase family 11 xylanase previously cloned from unpurified rumen fungal cultures. …

The objective of feeder reconfiguration on distribution system during normal operation is to
find the best switch operation plan for reducing power losses and enhancing service reliability…

In gravity casting, the quality of an aluminum alloy casting relies on, among other things, the
design of the runner system in which the ingate velocity into the mold cavity should be …
