Grid integration and coordinated control of voltage source inverters with energy storage systems
Published 2021“…Due to the proliferation of nonlinear loads, considerable harmonic currents are injected into the microgrid, leading to severe power quality issues. In view of this challenge, it is expected that DESSs can cooperatively share the harmonic currents and contribute to the total harmonic distortion (THD) reduction of the point of common coupling (PCC) voltage. …”

Clustering-based solutions for energy efficiency, adaptability and resilience in IoT networks
Published 2024“…Owing to their low- cost nature and susceptibility to damage, tampering or battery exhaustion, some devices may become faulty leading to unexpected behavior. IoT networks need to remain functional and resilient even with the presence of such faulty devices. …”

A study of atmospheric gradient for the analysis of weather events and prediction of rainfall in the tropical region
Published 2024“…The atmospheric gradient in the surrounding region converges at the location of precipitation which is also an indication of atmospheric convergence leading to a vertical updraft of warm air. The gradient magnitude exhibits negligible shift in values between rainy and non-rainy hours while forecasting precipitation over a region. …”

Evolutionary explanations and the debunking of moral beliefs
Published 2020“…Power in Cultural Evolution and the Spread of Prosocial Norms</b></p> <p>According to cultural evolutionary theory in the tradition of Boyd and Richerson, cultural evolution is driven by individuals' learning biases, natural selection, and random forces. Learning biases lead people to preferentially acquire cultural variants with certain contents or in certain contexts. …”

Computational analysis for infectious diseases surveillance and host-pathogen interactions (in the context of Influenza A viruses)
Published 2017“…Thus, we hypothesise that this could partially explain the mechanism how infectious LPAI viruses shed by chickens lack the inflammatory response and cellular disruption that may lead to disease conditions. In the third project (chapter 5), we used a systems-based approach to investigate changes to the transcriptome of primary murine lung macrophages (PMФ) in response to infection with the mouse-adapted H1N1/WSN virus and low pathogenic avian influenza (LPAI) viruses H5N2 and H5N3. …”

Preparation of low-dimensional materials for plasmonic bio-sensing
Published 2022“…Actual development of the proposed model will have many uncertain conditions like the quality of the nanomaterials fabricated, closeness and compactness of the SPR senor packing, variation of refractive indices and thicknesses with temperature, pressure and mechanical stress that can lead to loss of sensitivity. During the entire research duration of two and a half years, we focused on the use of simulation methods in predicting the sensitivity of SPR structures made of hybrid multi-layer low dimensional materials. …”

Tsewang Norbu NGB
Published 2025“…Given the recent near destruction of the entire rNying ma'i rgyud 'bum corpus, coupled with the fact that we often find numerous and substantial variants in rNying ma'i rgyud 'bum texts both transmissional (unwitting changes by copyists) and recensional (deliberate changes by editors), all editions are now invaluable sources for any research on this religious tradition, or, indeed, to any efforts to render these texts fully readable once more through careful textual editing. The well-written and attractively presented Rig 'dzin Tshe dbang nor bu edition manuscripts are thus of great significance to the preservation of the whole rNying ma Tantric tradition, and it is our hope that our work in cataloguing them, among other things made with future text-critical concerns in mind, will enable future scholarship in this field to progress.…”
