Abstract Natural disasters would destroy power grids and lead to blackouts.To enhance resilience of distribution systems, the sequential load restoration strategy can be adopted to restore outage portions using a sequence of control actions, such as switch on/off, load pickup, distributed energy resource dispatch etc.However, the traditional strate
Scientific publications in journals of international repute acts as a medium for self-actualization academics in the development of science internationally.Higher education institutions that have the quality of education , science and technology are good tend to have a high number of international ELDER FLOWERS publications.To produce scientific pu
We develop a four-sector (labor-intensive agriculture, capital-intensive Sailing Skorts agriculture, service & construction, and manufacturing) general-equilibrium model of North American countries to analyze the effects of tighter U.S.immigration policies.Results show that these policies erode the comparative advantage of U.S.labor-intensive agric
In our recent work, we developed an optofluidic platform that allows a direct link to be made between the phenotypes (functions) and the genotypes (genes) of microbial MISC cells within natural communities.By combining stable isotope probing, optical tweezers, Raman microspectroscopy, and microfluidics, the platform performs automated Raman-based s
While novel whole-plant phenotyping technologies have been successfully implemented into functional genomics and breeding programs, the potential of automated phenotyping with cellular resolution is largely unexploited.Laser scanning confocal microscopy has the potential to close this gap by providing spatially highly resolved images containing ana
