Why Smart Appliances May Result in a Stupid Energy Grid? [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
This article discusses unexpected consequences of idealistic conceptions about the modernization of power grids. We will focus our analysis on demand-response policies based on automatic decisions by the so-called smart home appliances. Following the usual design approach, each individual appliance has access to a universal signal (e.g.

Understanding the clinical management of co‐occurring sleep‐related bruxism and obstructive sleep apnea in adults: A narrative and critical review

Journal of Prosthodontics, Volume 34, Issue S1, Page 46-61, April 2025.
Abstract Sleep‐related bruxism (SRB) is a motor oral behavior characterized by tooth grinding and jaw clenching activity, reported by 8%–12% of the adult general population and 3% of older individuals. The frequency of one of its biomarkers, rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA), remains elevated across ages.
