description: Molecular adsorption on surfaces is a key element for many applications, including sensing and catalysis. Non-invasive sugar sensing has been an active area of research due to its importance to diabetes care. The adsorption of sugars on a template surface study is at the heart of matter. Here, we study doped hexagonal boron nitride sheets ($h$-BNNs) as adsorbing and sensing template for glucose and glucosamine. Using first principles calculations, we find that the adsorption of glucose and glucosamine on $h$-BNNs is significantly enhanced by the substitutional doping of the sheet with Al and Ga. Including long range van der Waals corrections gives adsorption energies of about 2 eV. In addition to the charge transfer occurring between glucose and the Al/Ga-doped BN sheets, the adsorption alters the size of the band gap, allowing for optical detection of adsorption. We also find that Al-doped boron nitride sheet is better than Ga-nitride sheet to enhance the adsorption energy of glucose and glucosamine. The results of our work can be potentially utilized when designing support templates for glucose and glucosamine.

description: When taking lightning and surge protection measures, the unique nature of PV systems has to be taken into consideration. Therefore, additional information on lightning protection for buildings with photovoltaic power supply systems was summarised in the 2009 edition of Supplement 5 of the German DIN EN 62305-3 standard “Lightning and overvoltage protection for photovoltaic power supply systems“. Meanwhile, an updated edition of Supplement 5 of the German DIN EN 62305-3 standard was published in February 2014. In this new edition, Annex D on lightning and overvoltage protection for ground-mounted PV systems has been reworded. The current Supplement 5 does no longer exclusively focus on the earth-termination system of ground-mounted PV systems, but also includes information on the lightning current distribution and lightning current stress on the cabling of ground-mounted PV systems.

description: The motion of classical spinning test particles in the equatorial plane of a Kerr black hole is considered for the case where the particle spin is perpendicular to the equatorial plane. We review some results of our recent research of the innermost stable circular orbits (ISCO) [P.I. Jefremov, O.Yu. Tsupko and G.S. Bisnovatyi-Kogan, Phys.Rev. D 91 124030 (2015)] and present some new calculations. The ISCO radius, total angular momentum, energy, and orbital angular frequency are considered. We calculate the ISCO parameters numerically for different values of the Kerr parameter $a$ and investigate their dependence on both black hole and test particle spins. Then we describe in details how to calculate analytically small-spin corrections to the ISCO parameters for an arbitrary values of $a$. The cases of Schwarzschild, slowly rotating Kerr and extreme Kerr black hole are considered. The use of the orbital angular momentum is discussed. We also consider the ISCO binding energy. It is shown that the efficiency of accretion onto an extreme Kerr black hole can be larger than the maximum known efficiency (42 %) if the test body has a spin.

description: It is quite evident that the output power of the PV module is highly influenced by the partial shading. In this work, we have proposed a novel structure of a non-isolated DC-DC converter to use as a distributed power converter in PV application. This converter is designed with wider voltage gain range specially to address the variations of output voltage of PV cells. The description of the proposed converter and the operational principle are explained here. This paper also demonstrates the benefits and suitability of the proposed converter in PV application. Simulation results of the proposed converter are also presented to verify the viability of the converter.

description: In this paper the power quality analysis of a micro-grid characterised by a relevant presence of non-linear electric loads and non-linear electrical generators, like photovoltaic (PV) systems, is presented. The presence of nonlinear loads, such as PCs, printers, electronic equipment and other such devices, determines a time varying evolution of micro-grid active and reactive powers and causes currents imbalance in the three-phase system. Moreover, non-linear loads introduce current distortions that pollute the electrical network with harmonic components. In this framework it is interesting to analyze how the introduction of PV plants can influence the power quality (PQ). In fact, the harmonic pollution associated with the presence of non-linear loads can interfere with PV energy conversion systems, determining high voltage distortion and worsening the micro-grid stability and reliability. However, under particular energy balance conditions the introduction of PV plants could improve the power quality reducing the harmonic components. In the present paper, the impact of two different PV systems on the power quality of the tested micro-grid has been analyzed for different load conditions. Total harmonic distortion (THD) indexes have been correlated with the active power profile and their evolutions have been discussed referring to the active power absorbed and generated.

description: This paper proposes an evolutionary algorithm integrating genetic programming and a decomposition-based multi-objective algorithmto address a crude oil refinery scheduling problem. Four objectives are modelled, two related to maintaining the crude oil processing level, and the other two aim to keep the refinery operations as smooth as possible. The proposed method, Constrained-Decomposition of Quantum-Inspired Grammar-based Linear Ge?netic Programming (C-DQIGLGP), uses Quantum-Inspired Grammar-based Linear Genetic Programming (QIGLGP), replacing its hierarchical approach for the objectives with a multi-objective decomposition-based one. To achieve this goal, QIGLGP was profoundly modified regarding sorting individuals, updating the population, and applying the evolutionary operator. Individuals whose objective values related to processing level are under a predefined limit are better ranked. We compare the results of C-DQIGLGP for five scenarios from a real refinery to those obtained by QIGLGP and Constrained Non-dominated Sort QIGLGP (C-NSQIGLGP), from literature, demonstrating the better performance of C-DQIGLGP for all cases.

description: Abstract: Purpose - The aim of the research is to discover, mainly, the opinions and perceptions of undergraduate students in Greek Universities regarding plagiarism. Design/methodology/approach - This research attempts to discover not only the opinions and perceptions but also the proposals of undergraduate students in Greek Universities regarding plagiarism. The research method that was used for the survey is quantitative, with the use of questionnaires. A total of 467 questionnaires were collected by students from all Greek Universities and the majority of the scientific fields. This research is an attempt to collect data regarding the students' perceptions of the essence and concept of plagiarism, their opinions about the factors that lead students to plagiarize or to plagiarism and the consequences that the Universities where they study impose. In addition, through the questionnaire, students had the opportunity to express their proposals about the methods they think are appropriate for plagiarism to be prevented effectively. The main objective of this research is to portray the extent of the problem of plagiarism in Greek Universities. Additionally, it aims to contribute to the problem’s solution and create the necessary policies and mixture of methods that will lead to the required education for students to avoid plagiarism. Findings – The research revealed various valuable findings. It is worth pointing out that the vast majority of the undergraduate students replied that they knew the term plagiarism (98,3%). On the other hand, below half the student population said they had not been trained in academic writing and, consequently, how to avoid plagiarism. Originality/value - The paper presents Greek Universities' undergraduate students' perceptions of plagiarism. Remarkably, the collected data outcome is from all Greek Universities.

description: In the last years, ultra-low temperature chemical kinetic experiments have demonstrated that some gas-phase reactions are much faster than previously thought. One example is the reaction between OH and CH3OH, which has been recently found to be accelerated at low temperatures yielding CH3O as main product. This finding opened the question of whether the CH3O observed in the dense core Barnard 1b could be formed by the gas-phase reaction of CH3OH and OH. Several chemical models including this reaction and grain-surface processes have been developed to explain the observed abundance of CH$_3$O with little success. Here we report for the first time rate coefficients for the gas-phase reaction of OH and CH3OH down to a temperature of 22 K, very close to those in cold interstellar clouds. Two independent experimental set-ups based on the supersonic gas expansion technique coupled to the pulsed laser photolysis-laser induced fluorescence technique were used to determine rate coefficients in the temperature range 22-64 K. The temperature dependence obtained in this work can be expressed as k(22-64 K) = (3.6+/-0.1)e-12 (T/ 300)^(-1.0+/-0.2) cm3 molecule-1 s-1. Implementing this expression in a chemical model of a cold dense cloud results in CH3O/CH3OH abundance ratios similar or slightly lower than the value of 3e-3 observed in Barnard 1b. This finding confirms that the gas-phase reaction between OH and CH3OH is an important contributor to the formation of interstellar CH3O. The role of grain-surface processes in the formation of CH3O, although it cannot be fully neglected, remains controversial.

description: The majority of residential systems in the US fall under third-party ownership, neither owned by the site host of the installer. These same owners are also responsible for operating the PV system. This puts responsibility on the owner/operator to service and maintain the system to both the owner’s and site host’s satisfaction. Oftentimes, the meter is the sole source of information on the operating state of the system. Full instrumentation of a fleet of residential systems is not cost effective for such a disparate fleet. Nor is it practical to maintain personnel on-site. As a result, we explore methods of using a geographic peer group of systems, satellite data, and other touchpoints to confidently describe the operation state of the system and flag issues needing attention. Observations in system losses, such as soiling loss, snow loss, and degradation, can be generalized and included into modeling for new customers. Prior to implementing this solution, 50% of issues were identified by customer calls to the operator. This metric dropped to 15% and continues downward as processes are refined. Monitoring teams went from processing a few tens of cases per person per month, to hundreds. The precision of the methodology has remained high indicating that little time is spent on false alarms.

description: Organic polaritons resulting from the strong hybridisation between photons and matter excitations have arisen as a suitable platform to device light-matter technological interfaces at room temperature. Despite their inherent complexity, organic polaritons are commonly regarded as coherent light-matter excitations that can be described in terms of Landau's quasiparticle approach. Here, we experimentally unveil the role of incoherent matter excitations on the polaritons by exploring the relevant energy-momentum parameter space. We demonstrate the emergence of a well-defined lower polariton branch and an intriguing fading of the upper polariton at its entrance to a continuum of matter excitations. This marks the breakdown of the simplistic quasiparticle picture for this branch and the formation of a more complex quantum state. Our experimental results are sustained by a general theoretical framework that allows understanding the light-matter hybridisation beyond the quasiparticle approach. Our work expands the understanding of organic polaritons in all their complexity and increases their technological significance.

description: Soft shading sources such as tree limbs, structural elements of buildings and chimneys, scatter and refract sunlight, significantly reducing the amount of radiation reaching the surface of the module. The hard shadings located directly on the surface (i.e. bird droppings, leaves, snow) tend to stop sunlight completely. These phenomena significantly affects the output characteristics of photovoltaic modules and often contribute to the creation of additional local maximum power point. The value of VMPP is often greater than typical 0.8 VOC. The paper presents results of the experimental studies that make particular emphasis on the impact of the intensity of the incident radiation and partial shading (obtained by shading different parts of the module) on the generated electrical power output.Design of the newest semiconductor technology charge controller solution dedicated for standalone photovoltaic systems having maximum power point tracking system has been proposed and presented.The possibility of implementation in larger systems and adaptation to the needs of installations based on LiFePO4 battery technology has been discussed.The concept and schematic block diagram of a computer aided test bench allows to perform many, including long-term, studies of the controller. The results of research have been presented and discussed.

description: Single phase PV inverters with a resonant intermediate stage in which a high frequency (HF) transformer is included are already commercially available. They have demonstrated to correctly satisfy mandatory requirements for these applications such as high efficiencies, high power densities and safety. The core of these inverters is the HF transformer. Thus, special care must be paid in the transformer design, modeling and operation, in order to obtain the desired interaction with the rest of the power converter while keeping its high performance. In this paper, a dedicated high frequency (HF) transformer model is proposed to be used in this PV application. Based on this model, an analysis of the impact of the HF model parameter variation on the converter operation is carried out. The influence of the transformer behavior on the common mode currents is specifically addressed. Finally, some key points in the transformer design for this particular application are identified, and some guidelines are extracted in order to keep the transformer parameter values under control.

description: To shed light on the mechanism responsible for the in-plane resistivity anisotropy in the nematic phase of the iron-based superconductors, we investigate the impact of spin fluctuations on the anisotropic AC conductivity. On the one hand, the scattering of electrons off magnetic fluctuations causes an anisotropic scattering rate. On the other hand, the accompanying Fermi velocity renormalization contributes to both the plasma frequency and the scattering rate in antagonistic ways, giving rise to anisotropies in these quantities that exactly cancel each other in the DC limit. As a result, the effective scattering rate changes its sign as function of temperature, but the DC conductivity retains the same sign, in agreement with recent experiments.

description: Abstract: Purpose - This paper aims to examine Greek citizens' awareness regarding the necessity of transitioning from the traditional medical record to the Electronic Health Record. The present study attempts to investigate the degree to which the citizens of Greece know the use and the value of the Electronic Health Record and to study their opinion that the EHR can ensure data security and increase their knowledge regarding their health. Design/methodology/approach - The research methodology was based on bibliographic and qualitative tools to achieve the above purpose. As a research tool was chosen a questionnaire with closed-ended questions. The sample consisted of 100 Greek citizens who were selected through a random sampling method. For the data analysis, the statistic software SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) version 23 was used. Restrictions - The study is subject to certain restrictions, in particular, due to the way the questionnaire is distributed via e-mail, which means that it is aimed at citizens who have access to the internet and the use of e-mail. Another limitation is that the sample comes from the region of Attica and not from all regions of Greece, a fact that may have affected the results of the research, as the citizens of the decentralised areas may be less informed about the Electronic Health Records. In addition, another limitation is the inability of health professionals to collect data, which does not allow clear conclusions to be drawn regarding the use of EHR and the benefits of using it to upgrade health services. Findings - Women agree more than men that the Electronic Health Record will contribute to saving time, cost, and error reduction in the medical system (p-value=0,008) and that the Electronic Health Record guarantee a better, more reliable and faster organisation of health care. (p-value=0,005). An interesting finding is that the younger participants with higher education levels had a more positive opinion about the advantages arising from the implementation of the Electronic Health.

description: The aims of this paper are to propose an intelligent hybrid control based in two methods of maximum power point tracking (MPPT) using fuzzy logic and classical PID controllers of a photovoltaic system under variable temperature and irradiance conditions, to improve the dynamic response, the efficiency and the stability of single stage three-phase photovoltaic grid-connected inverter. The combination of the intelligent fuzzy logic with the classical PID controller makes the control of nonlinear characteristic of photovoltaic array more feasible. The proposed intelligent hybrid PID-Fuzzy logic controller automatically varies the coefficients Kp, Ki and Kd under variable temperature and irradiation, load change. Finally, the method gives a good optimization of MPPT operation at any photovoltaic array under different conditions such as changing solar radiation and PV cell temperature. The simulation results and the comparison of results obtained separately from PID controller and hybrid proposed intelligent controller of PID-Fuzzy logic show the advantages of the proposed intelligent algorithm in terms of correctness and the feasibility, overshooting and stability and maintains its response better than the PID controller in many aspects.

description: The return on investment from a PV plant depends largely on the annual yield output. As such, the effects of degradation cannot be ignored. Over the past years module manufacturers have tried to ramp up production and increase throughput. Though most of these advancements have come through better process and optimization of resources, questions remain as to how this process has affected quality. During the past years, module quality has been largely an issue for investors but more recently yield losses faced by investors due to degradation is an emerging concern.
In recent studies there have been a number of causes identified as the source of degradation. Light Induced Degradation, Potential Induced Degradation, degradation due to delamination and EVA quality issues have all been observed. The question as how to measure and quantify degradation and its effects with relevance to real time operations therefore becomes very critical.
Additionally the problem of system sizing, in particular string sizing has been one the major issues, where the planners are restricted by constraints such as the maximum system voltage of 1,000 V, Maximum Power Point Tracker (MPPT) range of the inverters whereas the higher initial voltages of certain thin film technologies have just made string planning even more critical. It is very much important that the maximum power point of the module string at a given irradiation is within the MPPT range of the inverter throughout the useful life of the plant.
Degradation of photovoltaic modules is a well-known phenomenon. However if module output degrades at a rate much faster than anticipated, it can lead to unanticipated yield losses and additional costs down the road. This study on degradation focuses on the conceptualization of degradation, “Is it the loss of MPP current or loss of MPP voltage that plays a vital role in power degradation?”, investigates the implications of module / string power degradation, especially drop in string voltage and its implications on the maximum power point tracker’s functionality and thus throws light on how degradation in some module technologies can have far fetching effects for investors and plant owners.

description: We examine the azimuthal variations in gas-phase metallicity profiles in simulated Milky Way mass disk galaxies from the Feedback in Realistic Environments (FIRE-2) cosmological zoom-in simulation suite, which includes a sub-grid turbulent metal mixing model. We produce spatially resolved maps of the disks at $z \approx 0$ with pixel sizes ranging from 250 to 750~pc, analogous to modern integral field unit (IFU) galaxy surveys, mapping the gas-phase metallicities in both the cold & dense gas and the ionized gas correlated with HII regions. We report that the spiral arms alternate in a pattern of metal rich and metal poor relative to the median metallicity on the order of $\lesssim 0.1$~dex, appearing generally in this sample of flocculent spirals. The pattern persists even in a simulation with different strengths of metal mixing, indicating that the pattern emerges from physics above the sub-grid scale. Local enrichment does not appear to be the dominant source of the azimuthal metallicity variations at $z \approx 0$: there is no correlation with local star formation on these spatial scales. Rather, the arms are moving inwards and outwards relative to each other, carrying their local metallicity gradients with them radially before mixing into the larger-scale interstellar medium. We propose that the arms act as freeways channeling relatively metal poor gas radially inwards, and relatively enriched gas radially outwards.

description: A PV power system on the flat roof of an industrial building was investigated by flight thermography using a remote controlled octocopter. The PV system was known to show significant power reduction within in the first year of operation. The investigation of about 350 solar modules could be performed within only one hour, including the preparation of the octocopter, the thermography flight itself and subsequent analysis. About 10 percent of the modules were identified to show potential-induced degradation (PID) and could be attributed to that part of the strings with negative potential. PID affected modules were dismounted and analyzed in the laboratory showing a power degradation of up to 60%.

description: Aerial, drone-mounted IR-imaging is an interesting method for inspecting installed PVmodules in solar parks. Using aerial vehicles new parameters have to be taken into account, e. g. altitude, which influence the resulting radiometric and geometric resolution and accordingly the temperature evaluation. With increasing altitude the geometric resolution decreases strongly. The dependence of the radiometric resolution is described by the radiometric law. That means the irradiance reduces with the square of distance from the radiator, what has to be considered for stating the temperature. While large, extended areas, like normal solar panels, show only a small temperature decrease with increasing altitude, small areas, as individually heated cells or spots, exhibit a strong temperature drop. This has to be taken into account when evaluating temperatures of IR-images of PV-modules. At large heights temperatures might be underestimated. If the image of one cell counts more than 3x3 pixels, this underestimation can be avoided. Images from large distances are valuable for qualitative evaluation and provide helpful overviews for the localization of outstanding modules.

description: A blind HI survey of the extragalactic sky behind the southern Milky Way has been conducted with the multibeam receiver on the 64-m Parkes radio telescope. The survey covers the Galactic longitude range 212 < l < 36 and Galactic latitudes |b| < 5, and yields 883 galaxies to a recessional velocity of 12,000 km/s. The survey covers the sky within the HIPASS area to greater sensitivity, finding lower HI-mass galaxies at all distances, and probing more completely the large-scale structures at and beyond the distance of the Great Attractor. Fifty-one percent of the HI detections have an optical/NIR counterpart in the literature. A further 27% have new counterparts found in existing, or newly obtained, optical/NIR images. The counterpart rate drops in regions of high foreground stellar crowding and extinction, and for low-HI mass objects. Only 8% of all counterparts have a previous optical redshift measurement. A notable new galaxy is HIZOA J1353-58, a possible companion to the Circinus galaxy. Merging this catalog with the similarly-conducted northern extension (Donley et al. 2005), large-scale structures are delineated, including those within the Puppis and Great Attractor regions, and the Local Void. Several newly-identified structures are revealed here for the first time. Three new galaxy concentrations (NW1, NW2 and NW3) are key in confirming the diagonal crossing of the Great Attractor Wall between the Norma cluster and the CIZA J1324.7-5736 cluster. Further contributors to the general mass overdensity in that area are two new clusters (CW1 and CW2) in the nearer Centaurus Wall, one of which forms part of the striking 180 deg (100/h Mpc) long filament that dominates the southern sky at velocities of ~3000 km/s, and the suggestion of a further Wall at the Great Attractor distance at slightly higher longitudes.

description: The PV model temperature and irradiance coefficients used by commercial simulation programs may differ from actual values due to measurement uncertainty, module variability and/or model fitting errors[1][2]. The sensitivity of predicted energy yield (YF) to coefficient discrepancy has been analysed at 12 sites worldwide with respect to the PMAX temperature coefficient (GAMMA), Nominal operating cell temperature (NOCT), Low light efficiency coefficient (LLEC) and parasitic loss due to RSERIES (I².RS). The predicted energy yield YF sensitivity is site specific (e.g. thermal coefficient errors have a larger effect at high temperature sites). Simulation program studies ranking predicted kWh/kWp figures therefore depend on their database values and PV model discrepancies which can vary between module and manufacturer types.

description: This work presents a PV system and financial optimization tool, targeting a holistic design and control approach of real PV systems with the purpose of maximizing the energy yield in synergy with the smart grid. Three typical use cases are shown in this work. For each use case a sensitivity analysis of different design options indicates the potential to reduce Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE). The first use case targets system developers, comparing the cost-efficiency of different PV module orientations and PV-to-AC dimensioning ratios. The second use case targets inverter developers, comparing the cost-optimization of different inverter dimension limits (DC current, DC voltage and AC power). The last use case targets smart PV module developers, evaluating the gains that can be obtained by the use of by-pass diodes in combination with smart reconfiguration schemes depending on shade conditions. Results show that cost-efficient integration of the different PV system components is reached through holistic cost optimization. The validation of the tool shows that the output results are very close to the real output of operating systems.
