Can Personal Goal Setting Tap the Potential of the Gifted Underachiever?
Roeper Review, 2010Although underachieving gifted students have been largely ignored in empirical research, there has been a modest surge of interest in describing and “treating” this population in recent years. It is estimated that nearly half of gifted youth achieve significantly below their potential.

Optimising Low-Voltage Transformer Tap Settings in Distribution Networks
2019 29th Australasian Universities Power Engineering Conference (AUPEC), 2019In this paper, a practical method of determining the optimal tap setting of no-load distribution tap-changing transformers is proposed. The uptake of distributed energy resources impacts the risk of distribution systems violating voltage constraints.

On-load tap changer's dynamic resistance measurement: Settings and interpretation
2011 Electrical Insulation Conference (EIC)., 2011An on-load tap changer (OLTC) is prone to many different defects and degradation mechanisms due to its continuous operation under load condition. A high load current and high operation temperature accelerate the process of contact wear. Contacts erode due to the fact that under certain conditions the contacts develop a resistive layer due to hot ...

Carrier and Clock Recovery from Transversal Equalizer Tap Settings for a Partial Response System
IEEE Transactions on Communications, 1975A general expression is derived for the tap settings of a linear transversal equalizer using the minimum mean-square error (MMSE) criterion when the class-4 partial-response (PR) signal is distorted by noise as well as carrier phase and timing errors. The values of the tap settings are used to reduce the carrier and timing phase errors.

Optimal Tap Setting of Voltage Regulation Transformers in Unbalanced Distribution Systems
IEEE Transactions on Power Systems, 2016In this paper, we propose a method to optimally set the tap position of voltage regulation transformers in distribution systems. We cast the problem as a rank-constrained semidefinite program (SDP), in which the transformer tap ratios are captured by 1) introducing a secondary-side “virtual” bus per transformer, and 2) constraining the values that ...

Variable voltage set point control of tap changers in distribution grids
IEEE PES Innovative Smart Grid Technologies, Europe, 2014This paper discusses changing requirements for tap changer controllers in distribution grids with high penetration of renewable generation. Furthermore, a new tap changer controller approach based on a power flow dependent voltage set point curve using hysteresis is introduced.

Optimization of tap settings and capacitor units with expert system on distribution system
Proceedings of TENCON '93. IEEE Region 10 International Conference on Computers, Communications and Automation, 2002An expert system method for discrete VAr optimization on distribution system is presented in this paper. The expert system can aid the planning engineers to make an initial feasible solution, and to decide the position of transformer tap settings and the number of capacitor units.

There is great interest in using proximal probe techniques to simultaneously image and measure physical properties of surfaces with nanoscale spatial resolution. In this regard, there have been recent innovations in generating time-resolved force interaction between the tip and surface during regular operation of tapping mode atomic force microscopy ...

Is tap water a safe alternative to normal saline for wound irrigation in the community setting?
Journal of Wound Care, 2001Objective: This double-blind randomised controlled trial compared the effects of tap water and normal saline on the healing and infection rates of acute and chronic wounds. Method: The trial was conducted in two metropolitan community health centres in New South Wales, Australia.
