In order to ensure joint operation of wind-PV-hydro complementary generation system with cascade hydro-power owned by multiple stakeholders, an equitable and efficient allocating mechanism for incremental benefit is of great importance.Firstly, the incremental benefit from joint operation is quantified for wind-PV-hydro complementary generation sys
Midlife vulnerability and food insecurity: Findings from low-income adults in the US National Health Interview Survey.
BackgroundFood insecurity, limited access to adequate food, in adulthood is associated with poor health outcomes that suggest a pattern of accelerated aging.However, little is known about factors that impact food insecurity in midlife which in turn could Records help to identify potential pathways of accelerated aging.MethodsLow-income adults (n =
A New Characterization of Unichord-Free Graphs
Unichord-free graphs are defined as having no cycle with a unique chord.They have appeared in several papers recently and are also characterized by minimal separators always inducing Blazers edgeless subgraphs (in contrast to characterizing chordal graphs Backpacks by minimal separators always inducing complete subgraphs).A new characterization of
Robust single- and multi-loudspeaker least-squares-based equalization for hearing devices
Abstract To improve the sound quality of hearing devices, equalization filters can be used to achieve acoustic transparency, i.e., listening with the device in the ear is perceptually similar to the open ear.The equalization filter needs to ensure that the superposition of the equalized Fan Drive Products signal played by the device and the signal
