Optimized integration of photovoltaic systems and distribution static compensators in distribution networks using a novel discrete-continuous version of the adaptive JAYA algorithm... by Paolo Iván Cubillo-Leyton, Oscar Danilo Montoya, Luis Fernando Grisales-Noreña

“…For comparison, the discrete-continuous versions of the vortex search algorithm (VSA), the sine-cosine algorithm (SCA), Phasor Particle Swarm Optimization (PPSO), New Self-Organising Hierarchical PSO (NHPSO-JTVAC), Differential Evolution (DE), Gold Search Optimization (GSO) and the classical version of JAYA are used, validating the effectiveness of our proposal on the 33- and 69-bus test systems while considering variable generation and demand. In terms of the best solution, the average solution, and the required processing times, the AJAYA-SA strategy yields the best results in both test systems, making it the most efficient method to solve the problem under study.…”

Explaining trunk strength variation and improvement following resistance training in people with chronic low back pain: clinical and performance-based outcomes analysis by Shouq Althobaiti, David Jiménez‑Grande, Janet A. Deane, Deborah Falla

“…The baseline trunk extension strength variance (R 2 = .65) was explained by demographic covariates and lumbar erector spinae (LES) activity during a maximum trunk extension contraction. Demographic variables, trunk muscle co-activation, baseline trunk flexion strength, level of physical function, and pain intensity over the past week influenced the change in trunk flexion strength after training (R 2 = .93). …”
