A framework for analytical power flow solution using Gaussian process learning by Pareek, Parikshit, Nguyen, Hung D.

“…Further, the application of the proposed framework in calculation of voltage limit violation probability and dominant voltage influencer ranking has also been presented. Through test simulations for 33-bus and 56-bus systems, the proposed method achieves low mean absolute error (MAE) of order E-05 (pu) in voltage magnitude and E-04 (rad) in angle. …”

Escalated deep-subwavelength acoustic imaging with field enhancement inside a metalens by Chen, Jian, Sun, Zeqing, Rao, Jing, Lisevych, Danylo, Fan, Zheng

“…However, the imaging mechanism under unity transmission based on Fabry-Perot resonances means the metalens fundamentally suffers from narrow bandwidth and limited deep-subwavelength contrast, and therefore further advancement of deepsubwavelength imaging has been stalled. Here we break the barriers for deep-subwavelength acoustic imaging comprehensively in spatial resolution, resolving contrast, and working bandwidth, by exploiting field enhancement inside the metalens. …”
