For the virtual power plants containing energy storage power stations and photovoltaic and wind power, the output of PV and wind power is uncertain and virtual power plants must consider this uncertainty when they participate in the auction in the electricity market.In this context, this paper studies the bidding strategy of the Wok Rings virtual p
Human-type sialic acid receptors contribute to avian influenza A virus binding and entry by hetero-multivalent interactions
It is believed that human Influenza HA glycoprotein attaches to alpha2-6 linked sialic acids (SA) on cells, while avian viruses bind to alpha2-3 linked sialic acids, therewith contributing to host tropism.Here, Liu et al.show that mixing low-affinity alpha2-3 Glass Filter SA with low amounts of high-affinity alpha2-6 SA increases binding and entry
Techniques to produce and evaluate realistic multivariate synthetic data
Abstract Data modeling requires a sufficient sample size for reproducibility.A small sample size can inhibit model evaluation.A synthetic data generation technique addressing this TIG Gloves small sample size problem is evaluated: from the space of arbitrarily distributed samples, a subgroup (class) has a latent multivariate normal characteristic;
Thermal design studies in superconducting rf cavities: Phonon peak and Kapitza conductance
Thermal design studies of superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities involve two thermal parameters, namely the temperature dependent thermal conductivity of Nb at low temperatures and the heat transfer coefficient at the Nb-He II interface, commonly known as the Kapitza conductance.During the fabrication process of the SRF cavities, Nb sheet i
