Dynamic Simulation of Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries for Remote Isolated Microgrids
International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.This study investigates the dynamic performance of a vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) integrated into a photovoltaic (PV)‐based remote isolated microgrid (IMG), with emphasis on the influence of electrolyte flow rate on electrochemical behavior, energy delivery, and operational stability. A MATLAB/Simulink model was developed to represent the coupled

Engineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2025.FSBE combined with BG reinforcement produced a highly refined and stabilized microstructure through dynamic recrystallization and Zener pinning. BG particles acted as potent heterogeneous nucleation sites, accelerating β‐Mg17Al12 precipitation and enhancing precipitation kinetics. Aging for 12 h maximized mechanical performance, with yield strength and

An Evaluation of Nurses' Compliance With Pressure Ulcer and Fall Risk Assessments
Nursing Open, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2025.ABSTRACT Aim Pressure ulcers (PUs) and falls are two major issues following patient hospitalisation. They result in a series of complications affecting patients, families, and healthcare. Many factors can lead to PUs and falls. The absence of proper assessments of their etiologies exacerbates these issues.
