An Assessment of Optimal Allocation of FACTS Devices in Power Systems Using Metaheuristics
(2021-11)
The increasing power demand, the optimal use of grids, the need for economic efficiency, and the high costs associated with building new grids have created unavoidable challenges such as power line overload and excessive ...
Enhanced Speed Control of Separately Excited DC Motor Using Fuzzy-Neural Networks Controller
(IEEE, 2022-02)
The dynamic behavior of a PID-type fuzzy logic control depends on the appropriate choice of its scaling factors. Fixed scaling factors cannot provide adequate control performance under a wide range of operating conditions. ...
Optimal Sizing and Placement of Solar Photovoltaic based DGs in the IEEE 9 bus system using Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm
(2018)
Solar energy is one of the most commonly exploited renewable resource globally. Integration of power from solar to the main grid can either bring positive or negative impact which normally depends on their size and location. ...
Voltage Stability Enhancement of the Uganda Power System Network
(IEEE, 2021-08)
The unprecedented growth in demand and drive towards deregulation has brought about a complex and constantly changing grid. More so, with the current environmental and economic pressures, there's a reported growing number ...
Accelerating Research in Africa through Sustainable Virtual Research Communities
(2012)
Despite the commendable efforts by African NRENs to interconnect universities and research
institutions, research capacity in Africa is still a major challenge. In particular African universities
and research institutions ...
Implementation of a Structural Complexity Metrics Tool for Sassy Cascading Style Sheets (SCMT-SCSS)
(2020)
The development of metrics tool is a basic requirement for the defined software metrics to be acceptable in the software industry. There are several metrics proposed over the years without tool support and this trend cannot ...
Review of policies and frameworks on climate change, agriculture, food and nutrition security in Ethiopia
(2020-07)
Agriculture is the mainstay of Ethiopia’s economy, contributing over 50% of the gross domestic product (GDP), accounting for more than 85% of the labor force and over 90% of the foreign exchange earnings (Alemu et al. ...
Voltage Stability Analysis and Improvement of Power System With Increased SCIG-based Wind System Integration
(2020)
This paper presents voltage stability analysis and improvement of power system when there is increase in wind power penetration. Loading parameter-Voltage curve was used
to calculate the loadability and the megawatt margin ...
The use of RC4 Encryption for Smart Meters
(2014)
The electrical power grid is undergoing improvements and is being transformed to the Smart Grid. Smart Grid makes use of two way flow of power and information to better monitor, plan and control the electrical power grid. ...
