TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided a literature review on different heuristic optimization methods to solve the optimal PMU placement (OPP) problem and compared with different points of views.
Abstract: Phasor measurement unit (PMU) plays an important role in operation, protection, and control of modern power systems. PMU provides real time, synchronized measurements of bus voltage and branch current phasors. It is neither economical nor possible to place all the buses of the system with PMUs because of their high cost and communication facilities. Attaining the minimal number of PMUs to access an observable power system is the main objective of optimal PMU placement (OPP) problem, which is solved by utilizing different techniques. Graph theoretic and mathematical programming procedures have been first introduced to solve OPP problem, aiming to access power system observability. Heuristic method as an experience-based technique is defined as a quick method for obtaining solutions for optimization problems, in which optimal solutions are not achievable using mathematical methods in finite time. This paper provided the literature review on different heuristic optimization methods to solve the OPP problem. Then, the available methods were classified and compared with different points of views. Results from the tests of researches on heuristic algorithms with and without the consideration of zero-injection buses were compared and superiorities of the introduced heuristic concepts were demonstrated with relative to each other.

TL;DR: Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed DTC is able to follow the reference speed with a reasonable dynamic and relatively low error.
Abstract: A three-phase squirrel-cage induction motor is used as the propulsion system of an electric vehicle (EV) The motor is controlled at different operating conditions using a direct torque control (DTC) technique combined with a new switching pattem producing low harmonics The operating flux of the motor is chosen optimally for both loss minimization and good dynamic response Since speed estimation is sensitive to rotor resistance variations, the rotor resistance value is calculated and modified in real-time continuously Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed DTC is able to follow the reference speed (which may be only input reference of the system) with a reasonable dynamic and relatively low error

TL;DR: This review focuses on microRNAs (miRNAs) and their regulatory effect on epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) mechanisms that can regulate metastasis ofadder cancer cells.
Abstract: Bladder cancer (BC) is the 11th most common diagnosed cancer, and a number of factors including environmental and genetic ones participate in BC development. Metastasis of BC cells into neighboring and distant tissues significantly reduces overall survival of patients with this life-threatening disorder. Recently, studies have focused on revealing molecular pathways involved in metastasis of BC cells, and in this review, we focus on microRNAs (miRNAs) and their regulatory effect on epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) mechanisms that can regulate metastasis. EMT is a vital process for migration of BC cells, and inhibition of this mechanism restricts invasion of BC cells. MiRNAs are endogenous non-coding RNAs with 19-24 nucleotides capable of regulating different cellular events, and EMT is one of them. In BC cells, miRNAs are able to both induce and/or inhibit EMT. For regulation of EMT, miRNAs affect different molecular pathways such as transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β), Snail, Slug, ZEB1/2, CD44, NSBP1, which are, discussed in detail this review. Besides, miRNA/EMT axis can also be regulated by upstream mediators such as lncRNAs, circRNAs and targeted by diverse anti-tumor agents. These topics are also discussed here to reveal diverse molecular pathways involved in migration of BC cells and strategies to target them to develop effective therapeutics.

TL;DR: Wild progenitors of common wheat are a potential source of tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses and four species of wild relatives responded well to drought stress with a lower percentage decline for most traits and high values for the first two components.
Abstract: Wild progenitors of common wheat are a potential source of tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. We conducted a glasshouse pot experiment to study genotypic differences in response to drought stress in a collection of 180 accessions of Aegilops and Triticum along with one tolerant and one sensitive control variety. Several physiological traits and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters were evaluated. Our findings indicated that drought significantly reduced shoot fresh (59.45%) and dry (50.83%) weights, stomatal conductance (41.52%) and maximum photosynthetic capacity (41.06%), but increased initial fluorescence (28.10%). Drought stress also decreased the chlorophyll content, relative water content and maximum quantum efficiency by 14.90, 12.13 and 11.42%, respectively. Principal component analysis of the 182 individuals identified three components that explained 57.61 and 61.68% of the total variation in physiological and photosynthetic traits under control and stress conditions, respectively. When grouped into the 12 species tested, the three top components explained 78.22% of the total variation under drought. The means comparison, stress tolerance index and biplot analysis identified five accessions with superior tolerance to drought. Remarkably, four species of wild relatives—Ae. cylindrica (DC genome), Ae. crassa (DM genome), Ae. caudata (C genome) and T. urartu (Au genome)—responded well to drought stress with a lower percentage decline for most traits and high values for the first two components. The potential of these species offers further opportunities for analysis at the molecular and cellular levels to confront with drought stress through a physiological mechanism.
