Stand-alone power supplies for relay protection by T. A. Novozhilov, A. N. Novozhilov, A. O. Yusupova, G. Zh. Assainov

“…Existing devices are unreliable, expensive to manufacture and operate. In contrast to the well-known power supply devices, it is proposed to use Autonomous power sources to provide constant current for relay protection and diagnostics devices, which receive energy directly from the network by means of current or voltage transformers, as well as by means of an induction Converter located in the end zone of the electric machine. …”

X-Ray Performance of SiC NPN Radiation Detector by Jing Wang, Leidang Zhou, Liang Chen, Silong Zhang, Fangbao Wang, Tingting Fan, Zhuo Chen, Song Bai, Xiaoping Ouyang

“…In this paper, a silicon carbide (SiC) phototransistor based on an open-base structure was fabricated and used as a radiation detector. In contrast to the exposed and thin sensitive region of traditional photo detectors, the sensitive region of the radiation detector was much thicker (30 μm), ensuring the high energy deposition of radiation particles. …”

Impact of Frequency Heterogeneity on Mutually Synchronized Spatially Distributed 24 GHz PLLs by Christian Hoyer, Jens Wagner, Frank Ellinger

“…This research analyzes the mutual self-organized synchronization of phase-locked loops (PLLs) in the presence of variations in the free-running frequency of a PLL. In contrast to traditional synchronization methods that rely on a reference signal, this study investigates the synchronization dynamics that arise solely from the interactions of PLL nodes within a network. …”

Integrated assessment of environmental suitability and water-energy conflict for optimizing solar energy in Northwest China's desert regions by Weike Zhao, Zhangxinyue Zhao, Wenjuan Hou, Dezheng Jiang, Kaijin Zhang, Xueliang Zhang

“…The findings indicate that the Tengger and Kumtag Deserts exhibit higher environmental suitability, lower water resource pressure, and favorable spatial equilibrium, making them optimal for PV and CSP development. In contrast, the Ulan Buh, Badain Jaran, and Qaidam Deserts face significant water resource pressures, necessitating careful planning to avoid ecological impacts. …”

Activation of MEK1/2/Nrf-2 Signaling Pathway by Epstein-Barr Virus-Latent Membrane Protein 1 Enhances Autophagy and Cisplatin Resistance in T-Cell Lymphoma by Xintao Jia, Qiuyu He, Mei Zeng, Yuhua Chen, Yan Liu

“…First, we found that overexpression of LMP1 significantly promoted the resistance of KHYG-1 cells to cisplatin (DDP), which was related to increased autophagy in the cells. In contrast, knockdown of LMP1 expression in SNK-6 cells promoted cellular sensitivity to DDP and reduced the autophagy of cells after DDP treatment. …”

Spatiotemporal Expression and Molecular Characterization of miR-344b and miR-344c in the Developing Mouse Brain by Jia-Wen Leong, Syahril Abdullah, King-Hwa Ling, Pike-See Cheah

“…In situ hybridization analysis showed that miR-344b and miR-344c were expressed in the germinal layer during embryonic brain developmental stages. In contrast, miR-344b was not detectable in the adult brain while miR-344c was expressed exclusively in the adult olfactory bulb and cerebellar granular layer. …”

Monitoring Urban Expansion and Loss of Agriculture on the North Coast of West Java Province, Indonesia, Using Google Earth Engine and Intensity Analysis by Laju Gandharum, Djoko Mulyo Hartono, Asep Karsidi, Mubariq Ahmad

“…At the category level, IA results showed that the area of agricultural land experienced net losses in both periods, with net loss in 2013–2020 being 2.3 times greater than that in 2003–2013 (∼1,850 ha per year). In contrast, the built-up area made net gains in both periods, reaching almost twice as much in the second period as in the first (∼2,030 ha per year). …”

The Long Echo of Conflict: The Memory of 1990s Black Decade in the Modern Political Culture of Algeria by A. I. Vasilenko

“…However, as a rule, they have focused primarily on internal political trends in Algeria in recent years or on the process of post-conflict reconstruction started in the country at the turn of the century. In contrast, the author stresses that in order to provide the correct understanding of dynamics of political processes in Algeria all these issues should not be viewed in isolation from each other. …”
