Fuzzy-Virtual Inertia Control To Improve The Frequency Response Of Multi-Area Power Systems, Nourelhouda Djaraf, Yacine Daili, Abderrahim Zemmit, Abdelghani Harrag
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Virtual inertia control (VIC) is essential for power systems dominated by electronic devices to compensate for the lack of inertia and ensure frequency regulation. However, most existing VICs often focus solely on optimizing the virtual inertia parameter to adapt to the high penetration of renewable energy sources (RESs) without considering the damping factor. This oversight can lead to significant fluctuations and power mismatches, especially in interconnected systems where the coordination between MGs is sensitive and essential, and there is a risk of propagation of deviations between MGs, which makes the control more complex. To address these issues, this paper presents …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Fuzzing is an automated process for detecting crashes and vulnerabilities in software system and it is classified as grammar- or mutation-based in terms of input generation. While the grammar-based fuzzing generates inputs from a specification and takes highly-structured inputs, mutation-based fuzzing generates inputs by modifying input files and abstract syntax trees randomly. There are not many case studies comparing the crash detection capabilities in the scope of mutation-based fuzzing. To add to the body of empirical evidence in this area, this case study compares fuzzing with different mutation strategies to evaluate their effectiveness in three aspects: fault detection effectiveness, fault …

Biquandle Power Brackets Of Oriented Links, Nesli̇han Gügümcü, Sam Nelson
Turkish Journal of Mathematics
In this paper, we introduce biquandle power brackets, an infinite family of invariants of oriented links containing the classical skein invariants and the quandle and biquandle 2-cocycle invariants as special cases. Biquandle power brackets are generalizations of biquandle brackets in which the values of Kauffman states also depend on the biquandle colors they admit. We provide example computations and discuss the relationship between these new invariants and the previous cases.
