Analysis of MPPT Failure and Development of an Augmented Nonlinear Controller for MPPT of Photovoltaic Systems under Partial Shading Conditions

Applied Sciences, 2017
The output–voltage–power curves of photovoltaic (PV) arrays exhibit complex multi-peak shapes when local shading occurs. The existing maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms to solve this multi-peak problem do not consider the possibility of ...

Contrasting associations between parental coordination and breeding success in albatrosses across differing environmental contexts

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our study demonstrates that the benefits of parental coordination in albatrosses are context‐dependent rather than universal. Coordinated parental care enhanced reproductive success in stable environments, but had little effect in variable environments, where individual flexibility may be more valuable.

Technology, Work Intensification and Burnout*

Economic Record, EarlyView.
We model how technologies that allow managers to directly communicate with and more closely monitor employees can lead to an intensification of work, heightening employee vulnerability to burnout. When multiple managers assign tasks simultaneously, like in a matrix organisation, employees can become overburdened, decreasing their productivity and well ...

Beyond Spherical Harmonics: Rethinking Appearance Models for Radiance Reconstruction

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract View‐dependent appearance modeling remains a challenging problem in novel‐view synthesis and reconstruction. Accurately representing complex angular effects often requires substantial memory and computational resources. For new learning‐based methods, a common approach is to rely on Spherical Harmonics (SH).

A New Maximum Power Point Tracking Method For Photovoltaic System Under Partial Shading Conditions

Majlesi Journal of Electrical Engineering
A photovoltaic (PV) power generation system under partial shaded conditions (PSC) exhibits multiple power peaks in the power-voltage (P-V) characteristic curve and traditional optimization methods fail to detect the global maximum power point (GMPP ...

TOP1MT rs2293925 is an enhancer‐active regulatory SNP that shapes mitochondrial R‐loop dynamics

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This study shows how a common genetic variant of mitochondrial topoisomerase 1 (TOP1MT rs2293925) can influence mitochondrial gene regulation, DNA topology, and formation of noncanonical nucleic acid structures such as R‐loops. By linking this enhancer‐active variant to mitochondrial nucleic acid stress in cellular contexts relevant to amyotrophic ...

Enhanced Harmony Search Algorithm for Maximum Power Point Tracking Under Partial Shading in PV Systems

IEEE Access
Multiple power peaks are introduced under nonuniform irradiation conditions in photovoltaic (PV) systems. However, conventional maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms, such as the perturb-and-observe (P&O) algorithm, are only effective ...

Computed tomography reveals the endocranial anatomy of Crocodylia: Implications for phylogenetic relationships and ecomorphological convergence across Crocodylomorpha

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The evaluation of the endocranial anatomy of 43 crocodylian species reveals several differences, including variation in the curvature of the encephalic endocast, the size of the endosseous labyrinth and paratympanic sinuses, and the presence of additional snout sinuses.

Ecological and genomic variation in ectomycorrhizal fungal exploration types

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) produce mycelia with variable extension and complexity, which can be classified according to soil ‘exploration types’ (ETs). ETs have received attention as one of the few mycorrhizal trait frameworks, but without an empirical classification of ET functional diversity and environmental preferences, understanding and ...

AVA‐MAPbI3 Cap‐and‐Root Islands on Mesoporous TiO2 Toward Neutral‐Color Semi‐Transparent Perovskite Solar Cells in Agrivoltaics

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
Photograph and scanning electron microscopy images of semi‐transparent AVA‐MAPbI3 cap‐and‐root islands in mesoporous TiO2. The spectrally neutral light transmitted by this architecture benefits agrivoltaic applications such as lettuce cultivation while maintaining a positive energy balance to meet annual greenhouse demands for lighting, irrigation, and
