A Mathematical Theory of Power
This paper proposes a new approach to power in Game Theory. Cooperation and conflict are simulated with a mechanism of payoff alteration, called F-game. Using convex combinations of preferences, an F-game can measure players' attitude to cooperate. We can then define actual and potential power as special relations between different states of the system.

Gas pressure reduction stations are commonly applied to decrease the pressure of natural gas in the transmission pipelines. In such stations, natural gas is expanded in throttling valves without producing any energy.

Tracing Power With Circuit Theory
Power tracing is the task of disaggregating the power injection of a generator (or a load) into a sum of constituent components that can unambiguously be attributed to loads (generators) and losses. Applications of power tracing range the broad spectrum of: transmission services pricing, loss allocation in distribution networks, fixed-cost allocation ...

Power, Masculinities, Southern Theory
Raewyn Connell began work in political sociology in the 1960s and has not entirely stopped since. However, her approach to power now transcends a narrow focus on the state and extends to fields such as culture, education and gender. She is best known in

Sequential Power-Dependence Theory [PDF]
Existing methods for predicting resource divisions in laboratory exchange networks do not take into account the sequential nature of the experimental setting. We extend network exchange theory by considering sequential exchange. We prove that Sequential Power-Dependence Theory—unlike Power-Dependence Theory and most other exchange theories—has a unique

To investigate the effect of nodal configuration on the mechanical properties of hexachiral honeycombs, three specimens, namely, a standard honeycomb, a thickened-node honeycomb, and a filled-node honeycomb, were prepared using 3D-printing technology ...

Theory Exploration Powered by Deductive Synthesis [PDF]
AbstractThis paper presents a symbolic method for automatic theorem generation based on deductive inference. Many software verification and reasoning tasks require proving complex logical properties; coping with this complexity is generally done by declaring and proving relevant sub-properties. This gives rise to the challenge of discovering useful sub-

ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. High‐dose intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP) is the standard first‐line therapy for acute attacks, although some patients remain refractory.
