文摘Energy resilience is about ensuring a business and end-use consumers have a reliable,regular supply of energy and contingency measures in place in the event of a power failure,generating a source of power such as electricity for daily needs from an uninterrupted source of energy no matter either renewable or nonrenewable.Causes of resilience issues include power surges,weather,natural disasters,or man-made accidents,and even equipment failure.The human operational error can also be an issue for grid-power supply to go down and should be factored into resilience planning.As the energy landscape undergoes a radical transformation,from a world of large,centralized coal plants to a decentralized energy world made up of small-scale gas-fired production and renewables,the stability of electricity supply will begin to affect energy pricing.Businesses must plan for this change.The challenges that the growth of renewables brings to the grid in terms of intermittency mean that transmission and distribution costs consume an increasing proportion of bills.With progress in the technology of AI(Artificial Intelligence)integration of such progressive technology in recent decades,we are improving our resiliency of energy flow,so we prevent any unexpected interruption of this flow.Ensuring your business is energy resilient helps insulate against price increases or fluctuations in supply,becoming critical to maintaining operations and reducing commercial risk.In the form short TM(Technical Memorandum),this paper covers this issue.
文摘Mood disorders are often an indication or a sign of depression,and individuals suffering from mood swings may face higher probability and increased suicidal tendencies.Depression-also called“clinical depression”or a“depressive disorder”-is a mood disorder that adversely impacts how an individual feels,thinks,and handles daily activities,such as sleeping,eating,or working.To be diagnosed with depression,symptoms must be present most of the time,nearly every day for at least minimum of 2 to 3 weeks.Feeling sad or having low emotional energy may be common among people.For most,however,these feelings are transitory and can be managed by changing daily life routines.But for some,prolonged mood disorders can lead to depression and foster suicidal tendencies.Suicide is a major public health concern.Over 47,000 people died by suicide in the United States in 2017.It is the 10th leading cause of death overall according to NIMH(National Institute of Mental Health).Suicide is complicated and tragic,but it is often preventable.Identifying the warning signs for suicide and how to get help can be a major mitigating factor.In this short communication,we are reviewing the promise and limitations of AI(artificial intelligence)with its integrated tools such as ML(machine learning)and DL(deep learning)for mood analysis as a means for detecting early signs of depression and increased suicidal tendencies for possible suicide risk management.
文摘In the past decade or so,AI(artificial intelligence)technology has been growing with such a mesmerizing speed that today its presence in almost any industry that deals with any huge sheer volume of data is taking advantage of AI by integrating it into their day-to-day operation.Meanwhile,seven billion people worldwide shape the world’s energy system and directly impact the fundamental drivers of energy,both renewable and non-renewable sources,to meet the demand for electricity from them.These energy sources can be reached from nature such as solar,wind,etc.,and human-made such as NPPs(nuclear power plants)in the form of either fission as an old technology since the Manhattan project and in the near future as fusion in the form of magnetic or inertial confinements.Meanwhile,AI controlling nuclear reactors are about to happen.The basic idea is to apply AI with its two subset components as ML(machine learning),and DL(deep learning)techniques to go through the mountains of data that come from a reactor,spot patterns in it,and calling them to the unit’s human attention operators is not invadable either.Designers of such nuclear reactors will combine simulation and real-world data,comparing scenarios from each to develop“confidence[in]what they can predict and what is the range of uncertainty of their prediction”.Adding that,in the end,the operator will make the final decisions in order to keep these power plants safe while they are in operation and how to secure them against cyber-attack natural or human-made disasters.In this short communication article,we would like to see how we can prove some of these concepts;then a NPP manufacturer can pick it up and use it in their designs of a new generation of these reactors.
文摘Nearly all scientists,at conjunction with simplifying a differential equation,have probably used dimensional analysis.Dimensional analysis(also called the Factor-Label Method or the Unit Factor Method)is an approach to the problem that uses the fact that one can multiply any number or expression without changing its value.This is a useful technique.However,the reader should take care to understand that chemistry is not simply a mathematics problem.In every physical problem,the result must match the real world.In physics and science,dimensional analysis is a tool to find or check relations among physical quantities by using their dimensions.The dimension of a physical quantity is the combination of the fundamental physical dimensions(usually mass,length,time,electric charge,and temperature)which describe it;for example,speed has the dimension length/time,and may be measured in meters per second,miles per hour,or other units.Dimensional analysis is necessary because a physical law must be independent of the units used to measure the physical variables in order to be general for all cases.One of the most derivation elements from dimensional analysis is scaling and consequently arriving at similarity methods that branch out to two different groups namely self-similarity as the first one,and second kind that through them one can solve the most complex none-linear ODEs(Ordinary Differential Equations)and PDEs(Partial Differential Equations)as well.These equations can be solved either in Eulearian or Lagrangian coordinate systems with their associated BCs(Boundary Conditions)or ICs(Initial Conditions).Exemplary ODEs and PDEs in the form of none-linear can be seen in strong explosives or implosives scenario,where the results can easily be converted to induction of energy in a control forms for a peaceful purpose(i.e.,fission or fusion reactions).
文摘Nuclear energy driven magnetic confinement via donut shape device known as Tokamak,a toroidal apparatus,for producing controlled fusion reactions in hot plasma,was originally suggested as a basic yet more promising fusion reactor.Today the more innovative version of this apparatus that is known as an ITER(international thermonuclear experimental reactor)shows a way toward MCF(magnetic confinement fusion)of hot plasma goal by satisfying Lawson’s Criteria to some degree of achievement.However,since this fusion driven reactor of hot plasma needs to operate at almost 150 million Celsius,the internal material of this reactor is a matter of concern for scientists that are involved with its fabrication.Uniqueness of nanomaterials from the point of view of physical and chemical properties is suggested as a possible potential application for this special and innovative reactor for a nuclear fusion device.Convergence of nanotechnology in study of new generation of materials of this kind can shape the path for various technological developments and a large variety of disciplines,including MCF driven plasma of hot fusion as well.This short TM(technical memorandum)written by these two authors will cover this aspect of technology in a holistic way and the more granular level is left to the reader of this TM to investigate further.
文摘Speed is the new stealth and earlier this week America’s top nuclear commander described a grim scenario for U.S.forces facing off against hypersonic weapons.“We do not have any defense that could deny the employment of such a weapon against us,”Air Force Gen.John Hyten,commander of U.S.Strategic Command,told the Senate Armed Services Committee on Tuesday March 20,2018.Russian and Chinese are aggressively developing new weapons that travel at Mach 5 or higher,which is at least five times faster than speed of sound(hypersonic).These weapons travel in excess of 3,600 miles per hour(1 mile per second)and currently,no military possesses a credible defense.Finding,tracking and intercepting something that fast is unprecedented.Given that Russia and China have invested heavily in advanced defensive technologies that now hold most of our traditional forms of power projection at risk,this is a significant advantage—it is one that would impose major costs upon a defending nation.Recently,according to the director of the Army’s Rapid Capabilities and Critical Technologies Office(ARCCTO),The Army will field a battery of truck-borne hypersonic missiles in 2023,with a contract award in August,the service’s new three-star Program Executive Officer said.The service will also field a battery of 50-kilowatt lasers on Stryker armored vehicles by 2021,he said.A program to put a 100-plus-kilowatt laser on a heavy truck,however,is under review and may be combined with Air Force and/or Navy efforts to reach comparable power levels,Lt.Gen.Neil Thurgood told reporters in his interview.In this white paper we are suggesting a new technology as a counter-measure against such an adversary measure and threat that is aggressively being pursued by these two nations,Russia and China both tactically and strategically.We also briefly discuss possible physics and science of aerodynamics involved with these vehicles traveling between range of 5 Mach and higher,where we discuss current status and future direction driven by phenomena of plasma aerodynamics thorough possibly,weakly ionized gases(WIG)program that was started by the former Soviet Republics under AJAX Vehicle and that was direct understanding of the role of plasmas in the performance of this vehicle.
文摘There exist a lot of controversial issues around the subject of SW(Scalar Waves)and the purpose of this white paper is to take an innovative theoretical approach to prove and backup up existence of such phenomena.We basically define this wave as a SLW(Scalar Longitudinal Wave),whose existence derives from the MCE(More Complete Electrodynamic)theory aspect of Maxwell’s classical electrodynamic equations.MCE falls into the QED(Quantum Electrodynamic)aspect of the Maxwell’s equations,in particular out of his four famous classical equations,our interest focuses on the one that is known to us as Faraday’s Law of the Maxwell’s Equation set.
文摘Neurological disorders with symptoms such as chronic pain,depression,and insomnia are widespread.Very weak electric fields applied through the skull can enhance or diminish neural activity and modulate brain waves in order to treat many of these common medical problems.This approach is to be contrasted with well-established pharmacological methods or more recent invasive electrical Deep Brain Stimulation(DBS)techniques that require surgery to insert electrodes deep into the brain.We claim that Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation(NIBS)will provide new treatment methods with much greater simplicity,lower cost,improved safety and in some cases,possibly greater effectiveness.This emerging use of NIBS is a branch of a new multidisciplinary field that we coined Neuro-systems Engineering[1].This field involves neuroscientists,psychologists,and electrical engineers.This emerging field relies on existing standards for the safe implementation of these novel treatment modalities[2].Methods of stimulating the brain are based on emerging electro-technologies such as transcranial Direct Current/Alternating Current(DC/AC)electric fields and pulsed magnetic fields.Application of functional and time-dependent brain imaging methods can be used to locate relevant brain regions and determine the most appropriate stimulation method.Application of tailored and individualized control can be combined with other therapy methods to effectively treat neurological disorders while minimizing or even eliminating the use of pharmaceuticals.In this paper,we are presenting our embodiment for a closed loop,feedback controlled,non-invasive application of electrical stimulation of the brain to enhance individual/group performance or to treat neurological disorders.
