A Rapid Post‐Disaster Restoration Method for Networked Microgrids Based on Adaptive Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
To enhance the power restoration speed of networked microgrids (NMGs) after extreme natural disasters and reduce the power outage of the system, this paper proposes a rapid post‐disaster restoration method for NMGs based co‐optimization of fault repair and load restoration.

A Resilience‐Based Reward‐Penalty Scheme for Hardening Electricity Distribution Assets Against High‐Impact, Low‐Probability Disasters

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper introduces a novel resilience‐based reward‐penalty scheme (RPS) for electricity grids facing high‐impact, low‐probability (HILP) disasters. By modeling the costs of proactive asset immunization against reactive RPS penalties, our analysis conclusively demonstrates that long‐term investment in grid resilience is the more economically rational

Venous blood lactate concentration as a predictor of intestinal viability in horses with acquired indirect inguinal hernia

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Acquired indirect inguinal hernia represents a life‐threatening emergency. Therapeutic decision‐making largely depends on intestinal viability, for which specific predictive parameters (such as venous lactate) have not been evaluated.

Exploring the Nexus Between Sustainability Index and Central European Stock Markets Competitiveness: Evidence Through Time–Frequency Analysis and SHAP

Journal of Forecasting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainability has become an important factor shaping financial markets and investor behavior. This paper examines the relationship between sustainability indices and Central European stock markets using a time–frequency approach. Wavelet coherence is employed to capture time‐varying co‐movements between sustainability indices and stock market
