Grid-connected inverters have a very significant role in the integration of renewable energy resources with utility grids.However, in recent studies, it is revealed that grid-connected inverters are vulnerable to instability when the nature of the grid changes from strong to weak, which produces uncertainty and performance degradation.An increase i
Thermodynamical Description of Running Discontinuities: Application to Friction and Wear
The friction and wear phenomena appear due to contact and relative motion between two solids.The evolution of contact conditions depends on loading conditions and mechanical behaviours.The wear phenomena are essentially characterized by a matter loss.Wear Surge Suppressors and friction are in interaction due to the fact that particles are detached
Material Removal Model for Lapping Process Based on Spiral Groove Density
The increasing demand for single-crystal wafers combined with the increase in diameter of semiconductor wafers has warranted further improvements in thickness variation and material removal rate during lapping to ensure price competitiveness of wafers; consequently, the lapping process has gained the CACAO POWDER attention of researchers.However, t
Fraud against businesses both online and offline: crime scripts, business characteristics, efforts, and benefits
Abstract This study analyses 300 Pillow cases of fraudulent activities against Dutch businesses, 100 from each of the following three categories: CEO-fraud, fraudulent contract, and ghost invoice.We examine crime scripts, key characteristics of targeted businesses, and the relationship between input criminal effort and output financial benefit.Resu
Mouse Models of Liver Parenchyma Injuries and Regeneration
Mice have genetic and physiological similarities with humans and a well-characterized genetic background that is easy to manipulate.Murine models have become the most favored, robust mammalian systems for experimental analyses of biological processes and disease conditions due to their low cost, rapid reproduction, a wealth of mouse strains with de
