Enabling beam-scanning antenna technologies for terahertz wireless systems: A review by Dongze Zheng, Geng-Bo Wu, Zhi Hao Jiang, Wei Hong, Chi Hou Chan, Ke Wu

“…While producing a scannable highly-directive antenna beam proves to be indispensable in the period of microwaves, the significance of such functionality is more critical in the THz era, considering that THz waves have more intractable challenges such as the severity of free-space propagation losses, the susceptibility to atmospheric environments, and the unavailability of efficient signal sources. …”

Possible paths towards sustainable tourism development in a high-mountain resort by Laurent Arcuset

“…The local approach of "sustainable tourism", indeed, seems for the moment rather to aim - as in many other high mountain ski resorts - towards a more environmental management of the basic urban functions than a real questioning of a tourist model based upon the triptych development of the ski slopes, securizing of the snow resource and touristic real estate programs.…”

AGC of a Multi‐Area Hydrothermal Interconnected Diverse Deregulated Power System Using a Proposed Novel SBOA‐Multi‐Level Fuzzy Logic‐Tilt Controller Incorporated With IPFC by Getaneh Mesfin Meseret, Nishant Kumar, Tarkesh Kumar Mahato, Rajesh Kumhar, Poonam Lakra, M. D. Mofeed Alam

“…ABSTRACT The increasing size and complexity of power systems, along with fluctuating power demands, modeling inaccuracies, changes in system structures, and variations in system parameters over time, have made the Automatic Generation Control (AGC) task more challenging. A significant drop in frequency can negatively affect electric clock synchronization, magnetizing currents in transformers and induction motors, the consistent speed of AC motors, the ongoing operation of processes, and the coordinated functioning of various components within the power system. …”
