Distributed droop schemes for standalone and interlinked AC microgrids by Inam Ullah

“…So far, the common objective focused by the droop schemes has been proportional power sharing among the DGs based on their respective ratings. This objective is fine if the DGs are of the same type, just like the classical control of parallel synchronous generators. …”

Multi-species rotational grazing of small ruminants regenerates undergrowth vegetation while controlling weeds in the oil palm silvopastoral system by Tohiran, Kamil Azmi, Nobilly, Frisco, Zulkifli, Raja, Yahya, Muhammad Syafiq, Norhisham, Ahmad Razi, Rasyidi, Md Zainal, Azhar, Badrul

“…The use of single-species livestock grazing is likely to cause oil palm growers to use herbicides to control undesirable weeds. Hence, we concluded managing undergrowth vegetation in oil palm plantations using multi-species livestock grazing is a practical approach, and it should be fine-tuned for example by choosing livestock species based on the targeted objectives and the grazing sequence that will be practiced to regenerate the oil palm silvopastoral system. …”
