PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS ON PMSG BASED WIND GENERATION SYSTEM INTERFACED MULTILEVEL CONVERTER WITH ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TECHNIQUE
Authors: Choudhary Pramod Kumar , Shivkumar Singh Ashwini
Published: June 2023

This paper focuses on the development of ANN based MPPT interfaced Permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) for wind energy conversion system (WECS). There are many drawbacks to conventional energy sources, such as higher fossil fuel prices, damaging to the environment, a shortage of resources, and increased pollution. Due to the unpredictable and arbitrary nature of wind energy, it is crucial to introduce several control strategies in order to maximize its efficiency. In this work, Levenberg algorithms are developed for Artificial Intelligence Technique using MPPT algorithms for PMSG-based wind energy conversion systems. The proposed system consists of 3 kW PMSG integrated WECS, DC to DC boost converter, multilevel inverter and different loads. The DC to DC converter is connected to the multilevel inverter through a DC link capacitor. The inverter power is fed to the grid through a step-down transformer. MPPT controllers are used in the standalone wind energy conversion system. The goal of this research is to develop an MPPT controller using Levenberg-based Artificial Intelligence Technique for wind energy conversion systems. With the proposed Levenberg-based Artificial Intelligence Technique, MPPT uses voltage and current as input variables for DC to DC boost converter duty ratios. The Artificial Intelligence Technique of MPPT controller for standalone wind energy conversion systems with various different input/output conditions is modeled and simulated in MATLAB/ Simulink environment. The performance of the Artificial Intelligence Technique-based MPPT controller versus the conventional incremental conductance MPPT controller. Simulation results show that for a wide range of input wind speed, Artificial Intelligence Technique based MPPT controller shows improved performance than the conventional MPPT at various operating conditions. The response of the developed Levenberg based Artificial Intelligence Technique based MPPT algorithms for PMSG based wind energy conversion system in MATLAB/ Simulink environment to investigate the robustness of the developed control strategy and validate the reliability and stability under different input/output conditions for grid connected wind generation system.

Introduction. Injuries of the ACL are the most common ligamentous injuries of the knee joint, highlighting the importance of tools to easily determine the patients from a risk group. Aims. The aims of this study were: to establish whether the posterior condylar angle (PCA) is a risk factor of ACL injury among 18-30 year-old males and to assess the differences in PCA among patients with isolated ACL injury vs. ACL injury combined with acute MCL, or meniscal injury. Methods and materials. A case group was formed, according to a priori power analysis (α = 0.05, β = 0.95), with 44 patients with an ACL injury and a control group with 44 healthy patients. Then, the case group was subdivided into three subgroups: the MCL and meniscal injured. Two lines were drawn on the axial MRI – the posterior condylar axis and the surgical transepicondylar axis. The PCA was defined as the angle between them. Statistical analyses included U Mann-Whitney, t-student independent-sample tests, linear regression models and correlation analyses. Results. The mean PCA in the control and study group was 1.90° ±1.25° and 1.30° ±2.49°(p = 0.178), respectively. Univariate analyses of PCA in isolated ACL injury vs. ACL injury combined with acute MCL, MM or LM injury had p values of 0.981, 0.814 and 0.813, respectively. Multivariable analysis had p values of 0.744, 0.421 and 0.873, respectively. Intrarater ICCs were 0.931 and 0.928 (excellent reliability) and interrater ICCs was 0.868 (good reliability). Conclusions. PCA is not associated with acute ACL injuries in the studied population. MCL or meniscal injuries did not alter PCA values among patients with an ACL injury.
Surface replacement arthroplasty in the surgical treatment of hip osteoarthritis

Published: June 2023

Surface arthroplasty, also referred to as resurfacing, is a method of sparing hip arthroplasty, which is a surgical alternative usually reserved for younger, active patients. The introduction of successive generations of implants with metal-on-metal articulation resulted in increased interest in this method of treatment. Despite the unquestionable advantages and promising initial results, resurfacing has some limitations and disadvantages. One of them is the increase in the concentration of metal ions. Although they are necessary for the proper functioning of the human body, in large amounts they can lead to serious reactions of the soft tissues adjacent to the prosthesis, including metallosis, ALVAL (Aseptic Lyphocytic Vasculitis-Associated Lesion), or the formation of pseudotumours. Despite numerous studies and scientific reports, there is a need for further work on the relationship between the concentration levels of metal ions in people after resurfacing and the biological, causal mechanisms of the development of adverse reactions in the body.
Tricortical bone graft from lateral malleolus as an alternative for iliac crest graft in the operative treatment of foot deformities: graft harvesting technique and its application
Authors:   Ortop Poliklinika, Poznań, Poland, Napiontek Marek
Published: June 2023

The paper describes the technique and application of a tricortical bone graft harvesting from the lateral malleolus. Graft harvesting does not interfere with the continuity of the fibula. Due to its structure, the graft is equivalent to a similarly structured graft taken from the iliac crest. The graft is used in osteotomies and arthrodesis within the foot and ankle joint, which require a strong piece of bone as a wedge. The author typically uses this type of graft for osteotomy of the anterior part of the calcaneus with an opening wedge (Evans’ osteotomy), calcaneal-cuboid arthrodesis, talo-calcaneal arthrodesis, especially after calcaneal fractures, Green-Grice extra-articular talo-calcaneal arthrodesis and Dwyer II of calcaneus osteotomy for the correction of varus deformity with opening wedge from the middle, opening wedge osteotomy of medial cuneiform and supplement bone defects in techniques requiring lengthening of metatarsals.
C6 is differentially expressed in central nervous system metastasis.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: June 2023

Metastasis to the brain occurs in a significant fraction of patients with breast cancer and lung cancer (1-3). We mined published RNA-sequencing and multiplexed gene expression data (4, 5), comparing primary and brain metastatic tumor transcriptomes for the discovery of genes associated with metastasis to the CNS. We found that complement component 6, encoded by C6, was among the genes whose expression was most different in the brain metastases of patients with metastatic breast cancer as compared to primary tumors of the breast. Multiplexed gene expression data (5) revealed conserved differential expression of C6 in CNS metastasis in patients with lung cancer. C6 mRNA was present at decreased quantities in metastasis to the brain in humans with breast cancer. Expression of C6 in primary tumors of the breast was correlated with overall, distant metastasis-free, and recurrence-free survival in patients with breast cancer. Modulation of C6 expression may be relevant to the biology by which tumor cells metastasize from the breast to the brain in humans with cancer of the lung and breast.

File Drawer Report: Characterizing infants' understanding of ownership and ownership rights
Authors: Garcia Marissa , Smith-Flores Alexis Sierra , Pesowski Madison Leigh , Schachner Adena , Powell Lindsey J
Published: June 2023

Understanding ownership is difficult because it can not be directly inferred from the perceptual features of an object. In these studies, we investigated infants’ understanding of ownership rights by asking if they were surprised by ownership violations (Experiment 1, N = 34 11 to 13 months old) or if they expected owners to have a negative emotional reaction to violations (Experiment 2, N = 64 16 to 18 months old). We found no evidence that 1-year-old infants expect ownership rights to be respected nor that they expect owners to be upset by violations. A conceptual replication attempt of the finding that infants use possessive articles (i.e., “my”) to identify owners also failed (Experiment 2). We are thus unsure whether 1) infants do not understand ownership rights and their impact on actions or emotions or 2) simply did not encode ownership in the current studies.
Theatre In Canada: A Viewpoint On Its Development and Future

In Canada, the quality of our lives is largely determined by the amount of snow that falls annually on our landscape. By cutting through it — going over it, creating a lore of seeming indifference about it, and just learning to live with it as a reality for much of our lives — we manage to survive. Until eventually the thought of living without snow of one form or another becomes unthinkable in our mystique. Because of this, the folk-expression “snow job” has a particular poignancy when taken off the landscape and applied to such things as the evolution of our national consciousness.

Vancouver

Published: June 2023

Some thirty months ago the playwrights’ movement was launched in English Canada. That was the time of the Gaspe Manifesto with its demand for fifty percent Canadian content in subsidized theatres; conferences at Niagara and in Vancouver; formation of the National Playwright’s Circle which spawned the Playwrights’ Co-op. The situation looked hopeless in 1971: the playwrights’ demands met with resistance from most artistic directors, some of it wrapped in nice rationalizations, the kind usually offered by people who have all the cards. Then came OF Y and LIP and instead of trying to storm the phalanx of large theatres, playwrights created an alternative which had already existed in Montreal. Almost one hundred Canadian works were produced in Toronto within a twelve-month period; probably more than in the entire preceding century. The Factory Lab has been sent to perform in London by External Affairs and the author of Leaving Home earned almost as much in one year as an auto-worker or a plumber.

The nation’s chain of regional theatres has taken quite a bashing over the past couple of years from the more militant of our Canadian playwrights. In the view of these vociferous nationalists, the big regional theatres have sinned greatly in declining to schedule more than a token amount of native material in a given season.
Abroad
Authors: Rubin Don
Published: June 2023

With the exception of the Toronto Festival of Underground Theatre (FUT) held in, on, under and around the St. Lawrence Centre back in 1970, Canada has never really had a massive gathering of its artistic avant garde. As with so many other areas of our theatre, there is individual discussion to be sure and interchange on a personal level, but rarely have groups come together to let one another know where they’re at, why they are at, and how they’re going to get where they’re going if, in fact, they’re going anywhere. The problem, once again here, is communication, finance and distance. But it may also have to do with a certain unwillingness on the part of many companies to “talk” about their work — fearful, it is assumed, that discussion, debate and serious analysis would contaminate the holy product or the religious process. The fact is, though, that such ventures into the market place have traditionally provided companies from various parts of the world with fresh grist for their theatrical mills, new insights into their own work (there is always value in having to verbalize exactly what it is you’re doing) and a unique opportunity to relate what a particular company is doing to what others are doing.

Ignored Again
Authors: Cook Michael
Published: June 2023

One of the most unpleasant aspects of being a playwright in this great country of ours is having to endure, almost daily, a variety of opinions from critics, directors and simple cultural bagmen about the state of the playwright. Very rarely do the playwrights get to speak for themselves. They can be personally abused and vilified by reviewers, yet denied even the right of reply. Their work provides expense account luncheons and booze parties far in excess of their own earnings. The reason for their neglect is obvious. The industry they generate is understandably nervous about releasing the source of their income without ensuring that they are suitably gagged, caged, or otherwise made innocuous.
Canada’s Workers’ Theatre - II
Authors: Souchotte Sandra
Published: June 2023

Undoubtedly the most socially radical and adventurous production of the Workers’ Theatre in Canada was a six-act, collective work Eight Men Speak in 1933, billed explicitly as a political play. Written by Oscar Ryan, E. Cecil-Smith, H. Francis and Mildred Goldberg, it deals with the attempted murder of Communist political prisoner Tim Buck (then general secretary of the Canadian Communist party) in Kingston Penitentiary. The scenario includes satiric caricatures of the controlling personnel of Kingston society, realistic prison scenes, a mimed shadow-curtain shooting of Buck and a symbolic conviction of Capitalism by the Labour Defense League, ending with a ringing assertion of Socialist triumph.

Both the theatre’s founder, the late Tyrone Guthrie, and its current artistic director, Michael Langham, brought with them Canadian personnel — actors, designers and technicians. This past season, the Guthrie even offered a Canadian script — Michael Ondaatje’s The Collected Works of Billy the Kid on its new second stage, Guthrie 2. At present, though, the Guthrie only employs five Canadians and Langham announced that he himself will leave the Guthrie at the end of the 1977 season. Langham was interviewed for CTR about the Guthrie and his own plans by free-lance critic Jennifer Merin.
Breaking Portuguese Censorship
Authors: Rebello Luiz Francisco
Published: June 2023

In 1927, just one year after the military coup d’etat that established a fascist dictatorship in Portugal, a law was passed which began nearly a half century of censorship in the arts, a censorship that was not abolished until the democratic developments of April 1974. It was in 1927 that public authorities, under the pretext of “protecting and publicizing” the country’s arts, were charged with “controlling” and “repressing” anything deemed “contrary to the law, morality or the institutions of the country”. The new law was not only vague but it was also all-encompassing enough that it did in fact severely limit all political theatre in Portugal.
Medival Theatre in the Round
Authors: Parker R.B.
Published: June 2023

In the last 20 years the study of medieval English drama has virtually been revolutionized. Scholars such as H.C. Gardiner, F.M. Salter, Richard Southern, Glynne Wickham, and O.B. Hardison Jr. have re-examined the conclusions of E.K. Chambers, Karl Young , and Hardin Craig , challenging their evolutionary tendency to see medieval drama as merely a prelude to the age of Shakespeace , and, in particular, questioning their assumption that the norm for presenting the great mystery cycles was the pageant-car method of Chester and York. In doing so, they have made us look at the cycles more closely as plays for staging, with the happy result that we have rediscovered their theatrical worth and are beginning to see them revived more and more frequently. To no one do we owe a greater debt for this than to Richard Southern whose classic study of 1957 has been reissued , dedicated like the original significantly to Bertolt Brecht.
Denise Pelletier
Authors: Sabbath Lawrence
Published: June 2023

Until her sudden and untimely death this past May, the place of Denise Pelletier on the Canadian theatre scene was both unusual and remarkable. For nearly all of her acting career of 33 years, with both French and English companies, she stood virtually alone in her qualifications and achievements. Unchallenged by any other Quebec actress, she was constantly in demand and so able to select the roles she wanted. It is a tribute to her character that she accepted those parts which would challenge and expand her already enormous acting range.
Dramatic Data (Processing)
Authors: McCaughey Gerald
Published: June 2023

In the Montreal Museum of Art there is an early Joseph Legare oil that portrays a small, serious, black-costumed figure surrounded by blanket-clad Indians, obviously engaged in some form of histrionic performance. It is entitled “Edmund Kean performing for Indians at Quebec City, 1826.” The whole idea seemed just too bizarre to have sprung out of the artist’s imagination. I did some research and found that Kean was indeed in Quebec City in the fall of 1826, and he did subsequently claim to have been made an honourary chief during his visit. At the time, Kean was the Labourer. or Ingomar the Barbarian. Theatre “taste” then as now, was likely to be “popular” rather than “cultural.”
Question Time; The Dybbuk
Authors: Andrews Alan R.
Published: June 2023

Robertson Davies’ new play, written to a commission from Toronto Arts Productions who first produced it a year ago , make s a cur iou s comparison with John Hirsch’s version of The Dybbuk. For though both have a spiritual dim ension , Question Time elicits feelings of a quite different kind . Feelings indeed seem to be kept at some remove, so that the audience can share its analytic probings into the meaning of life, respecting the witty intelligence of the author, admiring the generall y cool quality of the discourse, the sharpness of its passing observation on th e more transient elements of the national scene (“That’s the news. Lloyd Robertson for The National”), and so on.

Aside: The Cultural Olympics
Authors: Rubin Don
Published: June 2023

Rule 31 of the International Olympic Committee’s general bylaws deals with those non-athletic events which every four years surround Olympics’ activities. That is to say, rule 31 deals with what has come to be known as the “cultural Olym- pics,” an international festival of the arts which goes on as long as the games them- selves. Curiously, the 1976 Canadian Olympics quite obviously contravenes rule 31. Instead of an “international” festival, the world is being offered a “national” festival, two full weeks of only Canadiana. Looking from the outside, one could no doubt explain this break with tradition by referring to Canada’s developing national awareness. And were this, in fact, the reason, it might be worth praising ourselves for some new breakthrough in self-confidence. But truth tends to be simpler than fiction and the fact is that Canada’s “national” festival evolved because the thinking in Montreal early on was that it would be cheaper than having an international one.
Image and Label: Notes For A Sense Of Sjelf
Authors: Wallace Robert
Published: June 2023

How do I react to being labeled a gay playwright? First I’m surprised and happy to be acknowledged as any sort of playwright. Usually I’m called an academic (I’ve taught university for eight years); often I’m called a teacher. I’ve also been called a home-owner, a television producer, a gardener, a writer, a director, a land-lord, a communications expert, a cook — and a lot of names. I’ve been introduced as an Anglican, a WASP, a homosexual, a roommate, a Christian, a son, a lover, a friend. I think of myself as all these things, but none in particular. Only in the last few years have I thought of myself as a playwright. The fact that I’m gay makes me a gay playwright, but, of course, I’m also a gay anything.
A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF CANADIAN THEATRE HISTORY (1583-1975); A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF ENGLISH-LANGUAGE THEATRE AND DRAMA IN CANADA (1800-1914)
Authors: Ball John , Plant Richard , Snider Edwin
Published: June 2023

In the last five years, valuable bibliographic aids have begun to appear in the relatively ignored field of Canadian drama. The Brock Bibliography ofCanadian Stage Plays finally brought together documentation on plays published in this country in English between 1900 and 1972. Heather McCallum’s invaluable little book, Theatre Resources in Canadian Collections, published in 1973, helped researchers locate good early material. But except for John Ball’s modest bibliography of Canadian theatre history published by Canadian Literature in 1962, the field of general theatre bibliography in Canada has been pretty well ignored. Now come two new bibliographies - one dealing primarily with the 19th century and the other ranging over nearly 400 years .

Vancouver’s The Beard
Authors: Page Malcolm
Published: June 2023

Vancouver’s most notorious obscenity case was that of Erskine Caldwell’s Tobacco Road, staged by Sydney Risk’s Everyman Company at the old Avon Theatre in January 1953. The cast, warned that they would be arrested at the intermission, played straight through without stopping: the charges and subsequent trials were internationally publicized.
Strange Passion in the County Court

Obscenity: An American Perspective
Authors: Rosen Carol
Published: June 2023

Counsel doesn’t understand my show… they are defending me by throwing me in with a band of pornographers. My thinking is, I believe in censorship. I believe, as I said, in prior restraint. I don’t believe a building has to burn down for the building inspector to look at the wires. I know what obscene means. I know more than the district attorney… Let me do the show. Let me do the gestures. Let me show you what I did… .
Saskatoon’s Twenty-Fifth Street House
Authors: Eamer Claire
Published: June 2023

Until very recently, theatre in Saskatoon meant local companies producing works from England, France, the United States and, very rarely, other parts of Canada. Twenty-Fifth Street House Theatre is an attempt to change all that. In its third season, Twenty-Fifth Street House has survived and continues to survive on the unlikely diet of original Saskatchewan drama. In its first season, one of the three plays was a Saskatchewan product — the other two shows were also Canadian.
James Reaney: Poet and Dramatist
Authors: Huebert Ronald
Published: June 2023

Inside James Reaney’s imagination there has always been a creative tension between lyrical and dramatic forms of expression. Reaney earned recognition as a major poet very early in life, when his first book of poetry (The Red Heart, 1949) won the first of several Governor-General’s Awards. Reaney as playwright attracted public attention much more slowly. Stratford acknowledged his growing stature as a dramatist in 1967, with a production of Colours in the Dark. And in 1974, he won the Chalmers Award with Tarragon Theatre’s production of The St. Nicholas Hotel (part II of The Donnellys trilogy).
Iran Festival of the Arts
Authors: Merin Jennifer
Published: June 2023

The Iran Festival of Arts, known for its patronage of experimental theatre, this year focused attention on Ta’zieh, a traditional Persian religious poetic drama. The tenth annual Festival (August 19-September 2) was preceded by a week long Ta’zieh Symposium, attended by leading scholars. Ta’zieh, often compared to European mystery cycles, relates (in an unspecified number of texts) the tragic events of the beleaguerment and martyrdom of Shi’ite Moslem (Persian) leader Imam Housein and his followers, by Sunni (Arab) Moslem warriors, of the Plain of Kerbela (in modern Iraq) in the year 680 A.D. Ta’zieh is a communal expression of religious belief that manifests itself in dramatic form. It is unique to the Shi’ite sect; most Islamic sects strictly prohibit representation of human beings in the arts.
Canada And The Commonwealth
Authors: Stephenson Tony
Published: June 2023

After listening to innumerable arguments about Canadian theatre and its problems, one is left with the impression that the difficulties Canada has faced in developing an indigenous theatre are unique. This might even be a necessary illusion, helping to stimulate Canadian artists by giving them a sense of heroic isolation. However, it is an illusion. Flattering parallels have sometimes been drawn between Canada now and Ibsen’s Norway or Synge’s Ireland, but the most illuminating parallels are much less gratifying to national pride. What, in fact, could be more likely than that the pattern of development in Canadian theatre would be very similar to that in other Commonwealth countries? In fact, if the patterns of development in the theatres of Australia, New Zealand and South Africa are examined, it will be seen that Canada’s experience is by no means an uncommon one.
