Subsynchronous resonance (SSR) can bring significant negative effects on the grid system like stability, security, and even generator shaft damage.This work presents a tray new method of using a doubly-fed induction machine (DFIM) based system of variable speed pumped storage plant (VSPS) to mitigate SSR in the power system with high penetration of
Osteocytes harbour much potential for paleobiological studies.Synchrotron radiation and spectroscopic analyses are providing fascinating data on osteocyte density, size and orientation in fossil taxa.However, such studies may be costly and time consuming.Here we describe an uncomplicated and inexpensive method to measure osteocyte lacunar densities
1.Bats are the second largest mammalian Order and important providers of ecosystem services including insect pest control, pollination and seed dispersal.Yet, the lack of basic information on their demographic rates hampers detecting changes in population trends, and thus conservation efforts.2.The elusive life-styles, that leads to imperfect and b
This paper is an introduction to a special issue of the Journal of Political Ecology on "Ecologies of Hope." The authors argue that discrete, specific, and often, local actions can create spaces that are bettering human lives and livelihoods.The five papers identify actions and movements that are situated in the "middle" between the individual and
