In the selected treatment modes, a thin wedge-shaped twin was observed, it passed through a section of the crystal with a weak concentration of visible defects. Additional etching of the titanium film revealed an ordered arrangement of dislocations with contrast that appeared on the surface inside the circular sites, which are the stacking faults inside the dislocation loop. The authors provide an explanation of the formation of stacking faults using the detected oscillating contrasts of the faults that are close to the surface. The voltage fields around the wedge-shaped twin, which were constructed with the use of computer simulation, made it possible to determine the value of the elastic stress when it comes into contact with the stopper.

The need for Interconnected power system is increasing day by day because of continuous growth of Electrical energy demand and to transmit Electric power to remote places at minimum cost and minimum losses. With the operation of power system in interconnected manner, maintaining the system security is difficult task i.e. whenever a disturbance occurs, the system undergoes stability problems. Even though Conventional energy sources are available, Electrical Engineers prefer Renewable energy sources integration because of Energy crisis and pollution problems related to the former, one such Renewable energy source isWind power.Wind energy has major share in Renewable energy sources because of its abundant availability in the nature. Whenever Wind generators coupled to the power system, the system exhibits drooping voltage characteristics and this situation becomes worse during faults. This condition can be neutralised with FACTS (Flexible AC transmission system) devices, one such FACTS device is STATCOM (static synchronous compensator). STATCOMsupports reactive and real power exchange and also improves Transient stability of the system because of its superior characteristics and quick response. In this paper a 9 bus Wind farm integrated test power system is taken and stability studies are done. Since, Wind farm is integrated with the system whenever a fault occurs, overall system stability is reduced i.e. the conventional synchronous generators can withstand it, whereas the Wind generators can’t. So to enhance the Transient stability of the system, a STATCOM is installed and the system behaviour is observed.

This paper presents the solution methodology of a multi-objective probabilistic fractional programming problem. In the proposed model the parameters in the constraints coefficient and the right-hand sides of the constraints follow continuous random variables having known distribution. Since the programming problem consists of random variables, multi-objective function and fractional objective function, it is lengthy, time-consuming and clumsy to solve the proposed programming problem using analytical methods. Stochastic simulation-based genetic algorithm approach is directly applied to solve multi-objective probabilistic non-linear fractional programming problem involving beta distribution and chi-square distribution. In the proposed method, it is not necessary to find the deterministic equivalent of a probabilistic programming problem and applying any traditional methods of fractional programming problem. The stochastic simulation-based genetic algorithm is coded by Code block C++ 16.01 compiler. A set of Pareto optimal solutions are generated for a multi objective probabilistic non-linear fractional programming problem. A numerical example and case study on inventory problem are presented to validate the proposed method.

Published: November 2019

There is a pool of techniques and methods in addressing dynamics behaviors in higher frequency data, prominent among them is the ARCH/GARCH techniques. In this paper, the various types and assumptions of the ARCH/GARCH models were tried in examining the dynamism of exchange rate and international crude oil prices in Nigeria. And it was observed that the Nigerian foreign exchange rates behaviors did not conform with the assumptions of the ARCH/GARCH models, hence this paper adopted Lag Variables Autoregressive (LVAR) techniques originally developed by Agung and Heij multiplier to examine the dynamic response of the Nigerian foreign exchange rates to crude oil prices. The Heij coefficient was used to calculate the dynamic multipliers while the Engel & Granger two-step technique was used for cointegration analysis.  The results revealed an insignificant dynamic long term response of exchange rate to crude oil prices within the periods under review. The coefficient of dynamism was insignificantly in most cases of the sub-periods. The paper equally revealed that the significance of the dynamic multipliers depends greatly on external information about both market indicators which are two-way interactions. Thus, the paper recommends periodic intervention in the foreign exchange market by the monetary authorities to stabilize the market against any shocks in the international crude oil market, since crude oil is the main source of foreign exchange in Nigeria.
Energisation Method For Offshore Wind Farms Connected To HVdc Via Diode Rectifiers

Published: November 2019

Diode rectifiers (DRs) have been recently suggested as a viable alternative for connecting offshore wind farms (OWFs) to HVdc, eliciting growing interest from both industry and academia. However, energisation of DR-connected OWFs is not straightforward. The present study constitutes a proof of concept of a novel energisation method for DR-connected OWFs, in which auxiliary power is provided from the shore through the HVdc link and the dc bus bar of one or more WTs. The proposed method provides an alternative with minimal additional hardware, which can be easily extended to more WTs in the OWF, increasing reliability by providing redundancy. The study includes coinciding auxiliary loads with active and reactive power components and a semi-aggregated OWF model, in which every WT is individually represented in the string containing the energising WT. An additional sequence of simulation events is considered following the initial energisation sequence. Such sequence comprises wind power taking over the provision of the auxiliary power. The simulation results indicate that the proposed method is a suitable alternative for energising OWFs connected to HVdc via DRs.

Hakikat Pelayan Jemaat dari Perspektif Allah
Authors: Gea Nurcahaya
Published: November 2019

Artikel ini ditulis dalam rangka membantu para Pendeta Jemaat menjawab pergumulan mereka oleh karena tuntutan Jemaat terhadap kriteria pendidikan dan kecakapan yang harus mereka miliki, untuk merespons perkembangan zaman. Tuntutan tersebut mendorong para pelayan berusaha memenuhinya dengan menempuh pendidikan atau pelatihan atas usaha sendiri. Namun di sisi lain, hal itu menimbulkan problema baru. Para pelayan semakin kurang mengandalkan kekuatan spiritualitas dalam melayani. Pelayanan semakin berorientasi pada prestasi. Akibatnya tidak sedikit pelayan yang lupa akan hakikat pelayanan. Tingginya biaya untuk mengasah kemampuan dan ketrampilan, yang tidak diimbangi oleh kemampuan Jemaat menanggulangi biaya hidup pelayan, menyebabkan pelayanan pelayan berorientasi pada kepentingan dirinya. Untuk menjawab pergumulan tersebut, penulis menyodorkan perspektif lain tentang hakikat pelayan, dengan menelusuri pengalaman dan pandangan Paulus, melalui kajian literatur, dengan melakukan studi hermeneutik atas 2 Korintus 2:14a. Ayat tersebut mengandung sebuah metafora, yakni tawanan perang, yang digunakan Paulus untuk mengemukakan pembelaannya terhadap kerasulannya, yang sedang mendapat serangan dari pihak luar Jemaat, yang berhasil memprovokasi Jemaat Korintus, sehingga Jemaat itu mulai menilai Paulus berdasarkan tradisi pada waktu itu, yaitu mengandalkan kemampuan manusia. Dengan ukuran itu mereka menganggap Paulus tidak layak sebagai rasul. Menghadapi tuduhan tersebut, Paulus menggambarkan kerasulannya dengan menggunakan metafora tawanan perang yang rela dipermalukan dan digiring ke dalam maut (2 Kor 2:14a) demi kemuliaan sang pemenang yang menawannya. Melalui metafora itu, Paulus mendemonstrasikan pelayanan Yesus, yang rela menyerahkan diriNya ke dalam maut untuk melakukan kehendak BapaNya. Untuk itu Paulus memandang bahwa kemampuannya melayani tidak dengan mengandalkan usaha-usaha manusia, melainkan kemampuan yang semata-mata berasal (keluar) dari Allah saja.

Published: November 2019

У статті автор досліджує вплив римського права на діяльність юридичного факультету Львівського університету. Показується важливість вивчення сьогодні римського права для студентів та науковців. Висвітлюються важливі дослідження відомих професорів-науковців, які працювали на юридичному факультеті Львівського університету з 1661 до 1918 рр. та розкрито їх внесок у дослідженні римського права.

Автор статті стверджує, що побудова в Україні правової, демократичної держави неможлива без належного вивчення досвіду, знань та практичних навичок, які існували в Римській державі. Оскільки так, як приймались норми права та втілювалися у життя, було, є та залишається взірцем для наслідування. Норми права, прийняті у Римській імперії, відзначаються своєю логічною побудовою, простотою та справедливістю. Така їх внутрішня будова та структурованість одержала загальне визнання у всьому світі. Норми римського права присутні у системах права багатьох держав світу, у точу числі і України.
