Climate change has significantly affected marine fisheries. In recent years, marine heatwaves (MHWs) have intensified concurrently with increasing sea surface temperature (SST), particularly along the coast of Japan in the Northwest Pacific. Although the relationships between MHWs and large-scale cl...

In this paper, an optimal transient control (OTC) scheme is proposed to improve the transient stability of the grid-forming (GFM) wind farm (WF) based on the transient stability of the WTs. The converter’s current operating safety range is considered to quantify the maximum KES capabilities of the W...

Abstract Transient stability assessment (TSA) plays an important role in ensuring the reliable operation of power systems. With the popularity of phasor measurement units (PMUs), data‐driven TSA methods have been widely concerned. However, the performance of TSA model may deteriorate when data loss...

Introduction Videolaryngoscopes are recommended as the top preference for tracheal intubation in adults, children, infants and neonates, and even in patients with anticipated difficult airways, since they are generally easier to use and quicker to master than fibreoptic bronchoscopes. Compared with...
