Coordinated Adaptive Virtual Inertia and Virtual Impedance Control for Stability Enhancement in Ultra-Weak Mountainous Microgrids

This paper proposes a novel Coordinated Adaptive Virtual Inertia and Virtual Impedance (AVI) control strategy that dynamically modulates virtual parameters to significantly enhance the stability and resilience of ultra-weak, high-impedance mountainous microgrids, extending critical inductance limits and reducing power oscillations compared to traditional fixed-parameter approaches.

The Infrastructure Deficit and Resilience Horizon: A Comprehensive Empirical Analysis of Nigeria's Telecommunications Landscape in 2026

This 2026 empirical study analyzes Nigeria's telecommunications infrastructure, revealing that despite high cybersecurity readiness, the sector suffers from severe resilience deficits driven by off-grid power dependency, frequent physical cable cuts, and high operational costs, while highlighting the potential of regulatory reforms and solar-hybrid retrofits to significantly improve service quality and economic feasibility.

When Zero-Shot Transfer Fails: Parameter-Efficient Few-Shot Adaptation of a Selective State-Space Battery RUL Model to an Unseen LFP Fleet

This study demonstrates that while a selective state-space (Mamba) battery RUL model fails to generalize zero-shot across chemistries (NMC to LFP), a parameter-efficient adaptation using only 10% of parameters and 61 source cells significantly restores performance, provided that evaluation strictly adheres to a causal end-of-life denominator to avoid inflated, non-deployable metrics.

Assessing the role for long-duration energy storage in microgrids considering resilience, energy cost savings, and CO2 emission reductions

This study evaluates the role of long-duration energy storage (LDES) in microgrids for enhancing resilience, reducing costs, and lowering emissions, finding that while LDES offers specific benefits for high-resilience, midday-peaking loads, it generally remains uneconomical compared to lithium-ion storage under current and projected future conditions.

Design-Space Exploration for Macro-Based SRAM Configuration on the SKY130 PDK

This paper introduces an automated design-space exploration framework for SKY130 macro-based SRAM configuration that evaluates nine memory-type and placement combinations using realistic area and leakage metrics, demonstrating that the choice of candidate selection method—specifically a Pareto-optimality filter versus traditional heuristics—significantly impacts the final design outcomes.

Effects of Immersion Level and Gender on Cognitive Load and Task Performance in Virtual Reality Crane Operation Training

This study demonstrates that while immersive VR (IVR) and desktop VR yield comparable overall cognitive loads, IVR significantly reduces task completion time and may better support women's spatial processing strategies by lowering frustration and leveraging environmental cues, suggesting its potential as an inclusive platform for crane operation training.
