Flexibility resource planning of a power system considering a flexible supply–demand ratio

Frontiers in Energy Research, 2023
Aiming at the problems of insufficient power system regulation capacity and lack of flexible resources caused by source-load uncertainty, the flexible resource planning of power systems is studied with the goal of improving flexibility.

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Decision Flexibility

CoRR, 2013
The development of new methods and representations for temporal decision-making requires a principled basis for characterizing and measuring the flexibility of decision strategies in the face of uncertainty. Our goal in this paper is to provide a framework - not a theory - for observing how decision policies behave in the face of informational ...

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

What is the physical condition profile of elderly women? Research looking at the level of flexibility

Tanjungpura Journal of Coaching Research
Background and Study Aim. Age changes are believed to be one of the factors affecting a person's physical abilities. Decreased physical capacity will result in some direct interference in doing everyday activities.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

A Multiobjective Strategy for Generation Expansion Planning to Enable Increased Penetration of Variable Renewable Energy Sources

IEEE Access
This work explores the generation expansion planning (GEP) problem from a multiobjective perspective, estimating the maximum capacity of non-controllable variable renewable energy (VRE) sources to be installed, when investments in flexible technologies ...
