Distributed photovoltaic reactive power control strategy based on improved multiobjective particle swarm algorithm by Hongli Liu, Li Hao, Li Ji, Shao Lei

“…Abstract Distributed power supply access to the distribution network, although it can effectively support the band voltage, will also cause problems such as voltage overruns at the point of grid connection and large network losses, so this paper establishes a reactive power optimization model containing three objectives: network loss, voltage fluctuation rate, and static reactive power generator (SVG) installation capacity in distributed photovoltaic power generation scenarios by taking advantage of the characteristics of SVG that both absorb and send out reactive power. …”

A Review on the Effect of Crumb Rubber Addition to the Rheology of Crumb Rubber Modified Bitumen by Mohd Rasdan Ibrahim, Herda Yati Katman, Mohamed Rehan Karim, Suhana Koting, Nuha S. Mashaan

“…However, the mixing temperature and duration can cause rubber particles to depolymerize and subsequently cause loss of viscosity. Crumb rubber modification also improves the properties of bitumen by increasing the storage and loss modulus and enhancing the high and low temperature susceptibility. …”

Comprehensive Approach to Mitigating Solar Photovoltaic Power Penetration Effects in a Microgrid by Youngil Kim, Manef Bourogaoui, Azeddine Houari, Hyeok Kim

“…High solar photovoltaic (PV) penetration in the electrical grid can result in undesired effects on the voltage quality, leading to line loss and voltage magnitude increases. One of the main criteria to ensure the safe penetration of high-power solar systems in the main grid is maintaining an acceptable voltage magnitude when a disturbance occurs (e.g., 0.95 and 1.05 per unit) with respect to total installed power generation capacity of PV power plants. …”

Oxidative Dehydrogenation of n-Butane over LaV Catalysts Supported on TiO2 by Le Minh Cam, Ngo Duc Huyen, Nguyen Ngoc Ha

“…It was found that La doping of V/TiO2 catalyst had a negative effect on the dispersion of V species and led to formation of V2O5 clusters. This resulted in a loss of activity. Although slight improvement of selectivity was observed in comparison to undoped V/TiO2 samples due to lower acidity of La-doped –V/TiO2, this could not compensate the loss of activity and finally did not lead to higher butene yields.…”

Corrosion Behavior of Work Hardened SnPb-Solder Affected Copper in the Bay of Bengal Water Environment by M. Muzibur Rahman, S. Reaz Ahmed, M. Salim Kaiser

“…Here, the result shows that overall leaching is increased for the addition of Sn and/or Pb in Cu over the whole immersion period in the stagnant water of the Bay of Bengal. The highest loss is found to be of Cu-Pb alloy which is followed by SnPb-solder affected copper, then Cu-Sn alloy and the lowest loss is of pure copper. …”

Investigating the past, present and future responses of Shallap and Zongo Glaciers, Tropical Andes, to the El Niño Southern Oscillation by Alasdair Richardson, Rachel Carr, Simon Cook

“…Sensitivity experiments demonstrate that Shallap and Zongo are highly sensitive to ENSO forcing scenarios and the combination of ENSO and climate warming can cause rapid ice loss under the most extreme scenarios. Results also demonstrate the strong sensitivity of both glaciers to changes in the equilibrium line altitude, whereby rapid ice loss occurred when melt extended into present-day accumulation areas.…”
