A Novel Technique for Multiple Microgrids Planning by Considering Demand Response Programming and Social Welfare Enhancement in Power Market
This paper presents a novel approach for planning and operating of multiple Micro-grids in restructured power systems environment and electricity market. Power quality indicators, voltage profiles, and power losses are considered as effective parameters for supplying the network active and reactive powers. Also, the necessary financial incentives are introduced in this paper from the economic point of view for these resources, and demand response programs are also used. in which variables are programmable distributed generators and interruptible loads based on demand response programs. In the proposed model, the operator implements a market with the locational pricing and considering the power losses based on domestic market implementation and upstream market modeling in the role of a dual player. In this way, active and reactive power markets will implement simultaneously in order to maximize social welfare. Subsequently, the Beta and Weibull Probability Density Function (PDF) methods are used for modeling the uncertainties in power generation. Also, the Locational Marginal Pricing method (LMP) is used to determine the prices in the system and the intelligent GA-PSO hybrid algorithm is used for optimization of this problem. Finally, the results are compared with the results obtained from other algorithms
Ensuring Security Using Core Based Routing Algorithm In Wireless Sensor Networks
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) circulate hundreds to thousands of modest miniaturized scale sensor hubs in their locales and these hubs are vital parts of Internet of Things (IoT). In WSN-helped IoT, the hubs are asset obliged from multiple points of view, for example, stockpiling assets, figuring assets, vitality assets, et cetera. Powerful steering conventions are required to keep up a long system lifetime and accomplish higher vitality use. To upgrade WSNs for secured data transmission both at group head and base station data aggregation is required. Data aggregation is performed in each switch while sending data. The life time of sensor arranges lessens in view of utilizing vitality wasteful hubs for data aggregation. Thus aggregation process in WSN ought to be upgraded in vitality proficient way. ESCR will enhance the performance of the system with good potential. Therefore ensuring security using core based routing (ESCR) algorithm in WSNs is proposed. Simulation results show that ESCR perform better than the existing algorithms
Addition of Polyurethane in the reformation of Bitumen
In the current research, the addition of Polyurethane in the process of reforming the Bitumen has been investigated. The construction engineers are concern about the asphaltic damages and consume too much money in order to maintenance of asphaltic roads. There are many efforts in order to enhance the resistance and the age of asphalt including the improvement of Bitumen”™s characteristics. It is common to use polymers in order to reform the Bitumen”™s characteristics. Thermoplastic Elastomers and reactive polymers are the families of polymers which have impressive effects on the characteristics of Bitumen. TPU and PU were used as modifier additive in Bitumen. Bitumen penetration test, softening point, TFO, PAV,DSR,BBR and FTIR on the modified samples with different forms of Polyurethane have been done in the current research. The achieved findings showed that Polyurethane decreased the penetration degree and even it increases the softening point of Bitumen. The mentioned modified Bitumen had the following characteristics: high viscosity and less sensitivity. Polyurethane also has increased the temperature of base Bitumen”™s performance and its resistance towards the transformation. In an average temperature, the modified Bitumen has better performance than fatigue of base Bitumen. Although the Polyurethane has a little positive effect on the Bitumen”™s performance, it couldn”™t add any positive performance to Bitumen in low temperature. The results of FTIR test showed, the Polyurethane bonds determined the chemical structures

The Effect of Talent Management on the Succession and Profession Skills of Employees
Succession planning and finding talent are considered as the most principle duties of managers in the organizations. Performing talent finding plans and succession planning for finding management talents in organizations should not cause educational investment barriers of employees who are valuable in their own job notwithstanding the lack of talent for suitable managerial career. In order to solve talent crisis, organizations pay their attentions more on the interior aspects of organizations and adapt succession planning which concentrate on the developing and fostering available talents. Historically, the most successful organizations in the aspect of performance perform long term investments on their employees. By investing on the time and cost for developing interior talents, such kind of organizations would be able to pass the crisis while retiring the main talents or voiding in any reason. The research investigates the effect of talent management on the succession planning and professional skills of employees. Methodology of the research is descriptive- analytic and as an applied one and context finding. Population of the research include 518 employees of social security organization. In order to analyze data we used spss 22 software.
