Dendritic cable with active spines: a modeling study in the spike-diffuse-spike framework [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The spike-diffuse-spike (SDS) model describes a passive dendritic tree with active dendritic spines. Spine-head dynamics is modelled with a simple integrate-and-fire process, whilst communication between spines is mediated by the cable equation. Here we

The nonlinear time-dependent response of isotactic polypropylene

open access: yes, 2002
Tensile creep tests, tensile relaxation tests and a tensile test with a constant rate of strain are performed on injection-molded isotactic polypropylene at room temperature in the vicinity of the yield point. A constitutive model is derived for the time-

Modelling cytoskeletal traffic: an interplay between passive diffusion and active transport [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We introduce the totally asymmetric exclusion process with Langmuir kinetics (TASEP-LK) on a network as a microscopic model for active motor protein transport on the cytoskeleton, immersed in the diffusive cytoplasm.

Active Distribution Networks Operation Within a Distribution Market Environment

open access: yes, 2017
No This chapter proposes a novel method for the operation of active distribution networks within a distribution market environment taking into account multi-configuration of wind turbines. Multi-configuration multi-scenario market-based optimal power flow is used to maximise the social welfare considering uncertainties related to wind speed and load ...

State-of-Charge Balancing Control of a Modular Multilevel Converter with an Integrated Battery Energy Storage

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
With the fast development of the electric vehicle industry, the reuse of second-life batteries in vehicles are becoming more attractive, however, both the state-of-charge (SOC) inconsistency and the capacity inconsistency of second-life batteries have ...

Distribution network optimisation for an active network management system

open access: yes, 2011
The connection of Distributed Generators (DGs) to a distribution network causes technical concerns for Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) which include power flow management, loss increase and voltage management problems.

Active distribution network with efficient utilisation of distributed generation ancillaryservices

open access: yesIET Smart Grid, 2018
This study introduces an active distribution network with high penetration of inverter‐based distributed generations (IBDGs) to improve the steady state, dynamic and transient performance of the distribution network. The size and location of the IBDGs, capacitor bank, on‐load tap changers position and voltage regulator set points have been optimised to

A nanoflare model for active region radiance: application of artificial neural networks

open access: yes, 2008
Context. Nanoflares are small impulsive bursts of energy that blend with and possibly make up much of the solar background emission. Determining their frequency and energy input is central to understanding the heating of the solar corona.

A Novel Data-Driven Fast Capacity Estimation of Spent Electric Vehicle Lithium-ion Batteries

open access: yesEnergies, 2014
Fast capacity estimation is a key enabling technique for second-life of lithium-ion batteries due to the hard work involved in determining the capacity of a large number of used electric vehicle (EV) batteries.
