Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSupplying a Common Distribution Load through Two Different SourcesM. H. Naeem, K. P. BasuPhase angle difference between any two Busbar voltages of a big power system varies with the loading and operating condition of the power system. Supplying a common distributed load from these two phase shifted sources needs the application of a controlled phase shifter. Three-phase tapped autotransformer connected in delta with properly controlled variation of input and output tap settings may … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,498 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effects of Harmonic Components on Transformer Losses of Sinusoidal Source Supplying Non-Linear LoadsI. Daut, H. S. Syafruddin, Rosnazri Ali et al.An important consideration when evaluating the impact of harmonics is their effect on power system component and loads. Transformers are major components in power systems. The increased losses due to harmonic distortion can cause excessive losses and hence abnormal temperature rise. The measurement of iron losses and copper losses of single-phase transformers is important in particular for transformers feeding nonlinear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2006 · 8,401 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAI-Integrated Probabilistic Optimization for Inventory Control Under Stochastic DemandJanardan BeheraThe identification and operationalization of increasingly nonstationary and volatile demand patterns challenge the conduct of inventory management in contemporary supply chains. The classical models, especially EOQ and static policies, rest on the stability of demand assumptions, either deterministically or distributionally, and are hence less apt under real-world uncertainty. In view of these limitations, the present study puts forward an integrated … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 6 May 2026 · 2,227 accessesView PDFCite
