Load shedding using GA and ACO in smart gird environment
subject: ACO; GA; Load Management; Smart Grid; Smart Load Shedding
description: Increasing pressure on the utilities to accommodate energy efficiency, load management and progress in advanced technology has led to transformations for existing grid into a smarter grid. Creating awareness among the end-users to participate in load management programs instead of capacity addition is the best solution for maintaining the stability in the grid. Load shedding is a strategy under load management in which load connected to the smart grid is individually controlled via two- way communication. In this paper, a Smart Load shedding approach is developed based on load prioritization. The required amount of load to be shed under lack of sufficient generation level is optimized by Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithms. The proposed approach is implemented using a real time feeder data from the substation, India. The results reflect the effectiveness of proposed algorithms taken into practical applications.

Partial load shedding using ant colony algorithm in smart grid environment
subject: Intelligent load shedding; optimization; Partial load shedding Ant colony algorithm; Smart grid
description: Effective power distribution methodology is one of the basic necessities to meet the increasing power demand in any power system. Load shedding is done when power demand is more than power generation, to sustain the power system stability. Load shedding methods followed today shed a particular load completely, neglecting the critical consumers within the system. Controlling the loads at individual utility level in smart grid system enables us to put a maximum power limit on utility. Hence by partially shedding the load, demand can be reduced. The technique used here utilizes ant colony algorithm to choose a maximum power limit for each load dynamically based on the importance and priority of load. This method forces the consumer to manage his load internally based on criticality. It also effectively makes use of availability based tariff schemes. 2015 IEEE.

Design and implementation of Adaptive PI control based dynamic voltage restorer for solar based grid integration
subject: adaptive PI control; dynamic voltage restorer; solar energy
description: This paper introduces an innovative approach to address voltage fluctuations in solar-based grid integration by implementing an adaptive PI control-based Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR). This DVR is engineered to counteract voltage disruptions resulting from grid disturbances and the intermittent nature of solar energy generation. To achieve optimal performance in diverse operating conditions, the adaptive PI controller dynamically adjusts its parameters, adapting to changes in load and solar generation. The system is realized on a digital signal processor (DSP) and evaluated within a laboratory-scale solar-based grid integration setup. The findings reveal that the proposed system effectively mitigates voltage fluctuations, ensuring a stable integration of solar energy into the grid. The adaptive PI control-based DVR outperforms traditional PI control-based DVRs, particularly when dealing with variable solar energy generation. This approach holds significant potential for practical applications in solar-based grid integration systems. 2024 IEEE.

Intelligent load shedding using ant colony algorithm in smart grid environment
subject: Ant colony algorithm; Grading of loads; Intelligent load shedding; Optimization; Smart grid
description: For every country which is expecting a large growth in power demand in the near future or facing a power crisis, an effective load control and power distribution strategy is a necessity. Load shedding is done whenever power demand is more than power generation in order to sustain power system stability. The current load shedding strategies fails to shed exact amount of load as per the system requirement and does not prioritize loads which are being shed. Given the dimension of the problem, it would not be feasible computationally, to use regular optimization techniques to solve the problem. The problem is typically suited for application of meta-heuristic algorithms. This paper proposes a new scheme for optimizing load shedding using ant colony algorithm in a smart grid platform considering loads at utility level. The algorithm developed considers each electrical connection from Distribution Company as one lumped load and provides an effective methodology to control the load based on various constrains such as importance of load and time of load shedding.

Models for load forecasting and demand response /
subject: Electrical & Electronics Engineering
description: Increasing pressure on the utilities to accommodate energy efficiency, load management and progress in advanced technology has led to transformations of existing grids into smarter grids. With the development of Smart Grid Technology and the integration of smart meters it is possible to control the equipment installed at the consumer site. Creating awareness among the end users to participate in load management programs instead of capacity addition is the best solution for maintaining the stability in the grid. Utilities can also encourage consumer participation in load control activities. They can ensure that power is given to a consumer during his priority time. For this, loads have to be categorized, prioritized and then considered for load shedding so that revenue loss and social impacts of load shedding are minimized. It would be beneficial if a consumer's load is not completely shed during load shedding. Amount of power that is shed from a consumer can be limited and consumers can be allowed to adjust their loads based on the availability of power and get incentives from the utilities for their change in load pattern. Consumers are also benefited with the reduced energy charges on the consumed energy during these periods.

Review of the recent research work shows that demand response and load forecasting play an important role to relieve the power system from economic and environmental constraints. Various approaches have been used in the past for developing different demand response and forecasting methodologies including neural networks, fuzzy logic and statistical techniques. These methodologies fluctuate in complication, suppleness, and information necessity. In addition, statistical methods such as time series, regression, and state space methods have large numerical deviation in the predicted load series. In general, for accurate modeling of nonlinear and undecided type of load behavior, artificial intelligence-based techniques are employed. Also, these …

Molecularly imprinted PEDOT on carbon fiber paper electrode for the electrochemical determination of 2,4-dichlorophenol
subject: 2,4-DCP; Conducting polymer; Electrochemical sensor; Molecularly imprinted polymers; PEDOT
description: A highly selective electrochemical sensor has been developed for the determination of the pesticide molecule, 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) using molecularly imprinted conducting polymer. 2,4-dichlorophenol imprinted polymer films were prepared by electropolymerising 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) on surface of carbon fiber paper electrode (CFP) in presence of 2,4-dichlorophenol. Electrochemical over-oxidation was carried out for the controlled release of 2,4-DCP templates and to generate definite imprinting sites. Surface morphology of the imprinted electrode was analysed by Scanning Electron Microscopy-Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectrometry, Fourier Transform Infrared and Raman spectroscopy. In optimized conditions, the voltammetric sensor gave a linear response in the range of 0.21 nM 300 nM. The significantly low detection limit (0.07 nM) demonstrates the ultra-low sensitivity of the method. The imprinted sensor displayed higher affinity and selectivity towards the target 2,4-DCP over similar structural analogical interference than the non-imprinted sensor. MIP sensor was efficaciously employed for the selective determination of 2,4-DCP in real samples of water. 2020 Elsevier B.V.

Road-Traffic Congestion in Bengaluru : Psychological and Social Consequences
subject: Psychology
description: The study investigated the commuting experiences of frequent travelers during congestion using a three-phase sequential exploratory design. Using semi-structured interviews, phase-1 explored the experiences of a sample of ten (4 women and 6 men) regular commuters on Bengaluru's congested roads. Thematic analysis revealed that psychological experiences due to travel adversities during congestion generated negative affect that narrowed thought-action repertoire of the commuters into fight or flight responses. Fight responses caused negative road occurrences that intensified travel adversities further, creating a vicious cycle showing a non-linear loop. Social consequences included challenges for personal time and activities, family time, health and health care activities, work, social, community, and recreational activities, increase of virtual socialization, and social Darwinism. In phase 2, a check-list of psychological consequences was developed based on the thematic analysis. Phase 3 statistically validated the vicious cycle in a sample of 190 (87 women and 103 men) commuters using structural equation modelling. The model substantiated the probability of the vicious cycle. Based on the model, a mathematical model was developed that could be used to test the non-linear relationship between the components of the vicious cycle.

Electrochemical deposition for metal organic Frameworks: Advanced Energy, Catalysis, sensing and separation applications
subject: Electrocatalysis; Electrochemical deposition; Energy storage; Metal-organic framework; Surface modification; Thin film
description: The advent of metalorganic frameworks has gathered ever-increasing attention owing to their versatility, unparalleled porosity, tuneability, and rich topography. The need for an efficient synthetic method and the trending appeal for thin film MOFs has brought in huge data on electrochemical deposition techniques. Thin films have immense applications in the field of electronics (including energy devices such as batteries and supercapacitors), sensors, catalysis, and as liquid/gas separation devices. Here, the electrodeposition method requires no pre-treatment step, allows miniaturization, a homogeneous film with desirable thickness, and is observed to be an eco-friendly method. The limited number of articles focusing on the supremacy of the technique has motivated the authors to collectively summarize the scattered data. To limit the discussion to reasonable bounds, the article focuses on a critical comparison of electrodeposition techniques with other synthetic methods, and different types of electrodeposition methods, and familiarize them with the various electrodeposited MOF-composite designs. Finally, we discuss extensively the existing as well as future applications. This will encourage future researchers to exploit this electrochemical technique for designing & developing newer MOF films and similar next-generation materials which are energy-efficient, rapid, and accurate while in use. This review article hopes to list out significant advances in the area to the advantage of both commercial and academic aspects. 2023 Elsevier B.V.

Thermoluminescence (TL) studies of quartz sample collected from Meghalaya for radiation dosimetry
subject: gamma dose; Quartz; radiation dosimetry; thermoluminescence (TL)
description: This study focuses on the investigation of the TL behavior of the quartz sample that was collected from Khonglah, West Jaintia Hills District in Meghalaya. The sample was crushed into powdered sizes (10100 m) and heated to reset the trap structures prior to irradiation. Characterization techniques, such as XRD and EDS, were performed to analyze the structure and elemental composition of the prepared sample. The sample shows a trigonal structure with a hexagonal lattice arrangement. Intrinsic defects and impurity centers, such as Al, Mg, and Mn, were present in the sample. TL glow curve analysis was performed after gamma irradiation with different doses (1070 Gy). With a gamma dose of 50 Gy, the sample showed a well-resolved glow curve with four intense peaks at 201C, 238C, 302C and 350C. Deconvolution of the peaks was done by using CGCD software and calculation of different trap parameters like the order of kinetics (b), activation energy (E), and the frequency factors (s) of the fitted glow curve was performed by Peaks shape method. These results suggested that natural quartz from Meghalaya exhibits promising dosimetric characteristics due to its good TL response with gamma dose and can serve as a reliable and cost-effective material for personal and environmental radiation monitoring. 2026 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.

Computational and experimental investigation on biological and photophysical properties of high yielded novel aryl-substituted pyrazolone analogue
subject: Antibacterial activity; Antioxidant study; In vitro antifungal activity; Photophysical studies; Pyrazolones
description: A series of new aryl-substituted pyrazolone derivatives 5(a-h) were synthesised via the Baylis-Hillman acetate reaction with pyrazolones and tested for antifungal, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties in vitro. Among the tested molecules 5d and 5e show good in vitro antifungal and antibacterial activities due to the presence of fluorine, which enhances the absorption rate by increasing lipid solubility and improves the pharmacological activity. It is also evident from the results obtained from structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies. Further, the photophysical properties of synthesized compounds were theoretically estimated using the ab-intio technique. The ground state optimization and HOMOLUMO energy levels are calculated using the DFT-B3LYP-6-311 basis set. Using the theoretically estimated HOMOLUMO value, global chemical reactivity descriptor parameters are estimated, and the result shows that compounds 5d and 5e have a higher electronegative and electrophilicity index than other molecules. Overall results suggest that, fluorine substituted pyrazolone derivatives show good photophysical, SAR, and biological properties. 2022 Elsevier B.V.

Photophysical and In Vitro-In Silico Studies on Newly Synthesized Ethyl 3-((3-Methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)oxy)-2-methyleneheptanoate
subject: HOMOLUMO; in vitro and in silico biological activity; MESP; NBO; pyrazolones
description: Abstract: In the present work, the aryl-substituted pyrazolone derivative ethyl 3-((3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)oxy)-2-methyleneheptanoate (ETT) has been synthesized by the reaction of Baylis-Hillman acetate with pyrazolones and screened for their in vitro antifungal, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties. The molecule shows good in vitro antifungal and antibacterial activities due to the presence of pentane, which enhances the absorption rate by its increased lipid solubility and improves the pharmacological activity. It is also evident from the results obtained from structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies. In silico studies were conducted on the synthesized molecule, examining its interactions with DNA Gyrase, Lanosterol14 alpha demethylase, and KEAP1-NRF2 proteins. The results revealed strong binding interactions at specific sites. Further, the photophysical properties of synthesized compounds were theoretically estimated using the ab-intio technique. The ground state optimization, dipole moment, and HOMOLUMO energy levels are calculated using the DFT-B3LYP-6-31G(d) basis set. Using the theoretically estimated HOMOLUMO value, global chemical reactivity descriptor parameters are estimated, and the result shows the synthesised molecule has a highly electronegative and electrophilic index. NBO analysis proved the presence of intermolecular ON.H hydrogen bonds caused by the interaction of the lone pair of oxygen with the anti-bonding orbital. The results suggest that pentane-substituted pyrazolone derivatives show good photophysical and biological applications. Pleiades Publishing, Ltd. 2024.

NSS-ML: a Novel spectrum sensing framework using machine learning for cognitive radio IoT networks
subject: 5G communications; BAT algorithm; Cognitive radio; Spectrum sensing
description: A key component of cognitive radio systems is spectrum sensing, which reduces coexistence problems and maximises spectrum efficiency. However, the introduction of multiple situations with distinct characteristics brought about by 5G communication presents problems for spectrum sensing to support a wide range of applications with high performance and flexible implementation. Inspired by these difficulties, a new method with a multi-layer extreme learning machine optimised for bats is presented in this study. This technique makes use of a variety of input vectors, such as channel ID, energy, distance, and received signal intensity, to enhance user categorization and sensing capabilities. Moreover, we compare the proposed method with the state-of-the-art spectrum sensing approaches in order to evaluate its effectiveness in 5G situations, especially in healthcare applications. Evaluation metrics including channel detection probability, sensitivity, and selectivity are carefully examined. The findings unequivocally prove the suggested spectrum sensing approachs superiority over current methods and highlight its potential for smooth incorporation into a variety of 5G applications.
