Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOptimal Location of Static Var Compensator Device for Damping OscillationsM. W. Mustafa, N. MagajiProblem statement: Static Var Compensators (SVC) devices are used to improve voltage and reactive power conditions in AC systems. An additional task of SVC is to increase transmission capacity as result of power oscillation damping. The effectiveness of this controller depends on its optimal location and proper signal selection in the power system network. A residue factor had been proposed … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,371 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsControl Strategy for Discontinuous Conduction Mode Boost Rectifier with Low Total Harmonic Distortion and Improved Dynamic ResponseH.S. AthabDue to its simplicity, the discontinuous conduction mode boost rectifier is potentially the least expensive active line-harmonics reducing circuit. Problem statement: The line current however, shows considerable distortion when the peak input voltage is close to the output voltage, As a result, the input power factor is poor. This study proposes a simple, low-cost method to reduce the line harmonics. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,418 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUltrasonic Microwave Assisted Extraction, Chemical Characterization and Antioxidant Activity of Polysaccharides from Fig LeavesBaikangzhe Zheng, Yang Miao, Yi Zhou et al.This study employed ultrasonic-microwave-assisted extraction (UMAE) to isolate water-soluble polysaccharides from fig (Ficus carica L.) leaves (FLPs). Polysaccharide yield was used as the primary index to evaluate extraction efficiency. The effects of material-liquid ratio, microwave power, extraction temperature, and extraction time on polysaccharide yield were systematically investigated through single-factor experiments, followed by response surface methodology optimization. Structural characterization and antioxidant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 3 Mar 2026 · 1,671 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of a Synchronous Reference Frame Controlled Fuzzy Logic Based Distribution Static Compensator to Enhance Distribution System Power QualityRekha Sampath, Lokesh Mallaiah, Ashwini A V et al.The demand for enhanced power quality in distribution systems has increased due to the widespread utilization of various AC loads, including rectifiers, inductive loads, and variable speed drives. When these nonlinear loads are combined with renewable energy sources, harmonics are introduced in the system. These can affect the way other equipment in the network works and leave the system vulnerable … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 27 Feb 2026 · 1,710 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Evolution Framework for Evaluating Intelligent Spectrum Sensing Mechanisms in Cognitive RadioArchana Krishnamuthy, Sudhindra Kumbhashi RajgopalCognitive radio technology has advanced to address the challenge of limited spectrum availability by employing spectrum sensing techniques. This process is framed as a detection problem involving two core hypotheses: Hypo-0 and Hypo-1. Hypo-0 represents the scenario where only noise is present, and its modeling depends on parameters such as the number of observed samples, the timing of signal acquisition, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 8 · 4 Sep 2025 · 5,807 accessesView PDFCite
