The increasing integration of intermittent renewable sources (RSs) poses a dynamic frequency stability challenge for modern marine vessel microgrids. To address this issue, this paper proposes a novel control approach, specifically targeting frequency and tie-line power stabilization in a diverse source marine microgrid (MμG) with two intertied areas featuring renewable (wind-wave) sources. The suggested approach introduces a modified tilt-integral active disturbance rejection (TI-ADRC) controller designed to ensure effective damping of power frequency oscillations.

There are three standard equivalent circuit models of solar cells in the literature-single-diode, double-diode, and triple-diode models. In this paper, first, a modified version of the single diode model, called the Improved Single Diode Model (ISDM), is presented. This modification is realized by adding resistance in series with the diode to enable better power loss dissipation representation.

Objective: Hospital performance evaluation is vital in terms of managing hospitals and informing patients about hospital possibilities. Also, it plays a key role in planning essential issues such as electrical energy management and cybersecurity in hospitals. In addition to being able to make this measurement objectively with the help of various indicators, it can become very complicated with the participation of subjective expert thoughts in the process.

As synthetic antioxidants that are widely used in foods are known to cause detrimental health effects, studies on natural additives as potential antioxidants are becoming increasingly important. In this work, the total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant activity of Ficus carica Linn latex from 18 cultivars were investigated. The TPC of latex was calculated using the Folin-Ciocalteu assay.

Article Synopsis
  • This study introduces a new type of quasi-solid dye-sensitized solar cell (QSDDSC) using a starch derivative that dissolves in organic solvents.
  • Rheological tests showed that blending starch with certain additives like LiI enhanced the gels' rigidity and tackiness, while other additives like TPAI resulted in less effective gels.
  • The QSDDSC achieved a notable photoconversion efficiency of 3.94%, highlighting its potential as one of the better-performing solar cells derived from starch-based materials.
