Two reconfiguration situations are considered: operation mode adjustment with the objective of minimizing active power loss(situation Ⅰ) and service restoration with the objective of maximizing loads restored(situation Ⅱ). These two situations are modeled as a mixed integer quadratic programming problem and a mixed integer linear programming problem, respectively. The properties of the distribution network with distributed generation considered are reflected as the structure model and the constraints described by directed graph. More specifically, the concepts of "in-degree" and "out-degree"are presented to ensure the radial structure of the distribution network, and the concepts of "virtual node" and"virtual demand" are developed to ensure the connectivity of charged nodes in every independent power supply area.The validity and effectiveness of the proposed method are verified by test results of an IEEE 33-bus system and a 5-feeder system.展开更多

A randomized complete block design (RCBD) experiment tested five tree species (Afzelia xylocarpa (Kurz) Craib, Eugenia cumini (L.) Druce, Ficus racemosa Roxb., Gmelina arborea Roxb. and Schleichera oleosa (Lour.) Oken) with 5 substrate amelioration treatments and 3 replicates. Germination percent was the highest for Afzelia xylocarpa (88.1%) and lowest for Ficus racemosa (5.9%). The substrate amelioration treatments had no significant effects on both seed germination and seedling establishment for all species tested. Schleichera oleosa had the highest seedling establishment percent (45%) followed by Afzelia xylocarpa (40%). A suitability scoring system indicated that these two species were the most suitable for direct seeding to complement other techniques of mine site rehabilitation in northern Thailand, where establishment of indigenous forest tree species is required for biodiversity recovery.展开更多

Then the model of nonlocally centralized simultaneous sparse coding(NCSSC)is proposed for reconstructing the original image, and an algorithm is proposed to transform the simultaneous sparse coding into reweighted low-rank approximation. Experimental results on image denoisng, deblurring and super-resolution demonstrate the advantage of the proposed NC-SSC method over the state-of-the-art image restoration methods.展开更多
