Mitigation of lightning-induced transient effects on a hybrid photovoltaic–wind system based on lightning protection standards by Abda, Zmnako Mohammed Khurshid, Ab Kadir, Mohd Zainal Abidin, Hizam, Hashim, Gomes, Chandima

“…It comprises a 2 MW PV farm, a 2 MW wind farm, and a backup energy storage system (ESS), which are all connected to a 132 kV grid via a step-up transformer and a transmission line. The results were obtained at critical system nodes for two standard lightning current surges, i.e., 1/10 µs and 10/350 µs, considering two lightning strike point scenarios with and without a lightning protection system (LPS). …”

Towards Health Centered Drug Policy: An Analysis of Past and Developing Drug Policy by Lewis, Benjamin B.

“…As a result, many argue that policies which decriminalize marijuana are exacerbating the problem of drug addiction. Seemingly in line with this argument, overdose-related deaths–largely driven by increases in opioid consumption–have soared in recent years, and at the same time an increasing number of states have decriminalized marijuana. …”

The impact of protozoan predation on the pathogenicity of Vibrio cholerae by Espinoza-Vergara, Gustavo, Hoque, M. Mozammel, McDougald, Diane, Noorian, Parisa

“…Many of these intra-phagosomal factors used to kill and digest bacteria are highly conserved between eukaryotic cells and thus are also expressed by the innate immune system in the gastrointestinal tract as the first line of defense against bacterial pathogens. Since pathogenic bacteria have been shown to be hypervirulent after they have passed through protozoa, the resistance to digestion by protist hosts in their natural environment plays a key role in enhancing the infectious potential of pathogenic Vibrio spp. …”
