Multi-field coupling in the scrape-off layer of tokamak plasma

We study a reduced electrostatic fluid model for the tokamak scrape-off layer, which incorporates temperature gradient and vorticity gradient as two free energy fields.Two scenarios of field coupling are addressed: (1) sheath condition; (2) vortex wave coupling.For the Me Outerwear sheath condition induced field coupling, the poloidal $mathbf{E} i

An agent-based modelling framework for the simulation of large-scale consumer participation in electricity market ecosystems

Abstract The role of consumers as price-sensitive participants in electricity markets is considered essential to ensure efficient and secure operations of electricity systems.Yet the uncertain or unknown consequences of active market participation remain a large barrier for active consumer-side market participation.Simulations are a powerful tool t

Splenic rupture in an extremely low birthweight infant

Splenic rupture is a rare event in preterm and term infants.Symptoms of splenic rupture include acute blood loss, abdominal distention, and hypotension.We present the case of a 24 4/7 weeks gestation male infant born in the setting of preterm Carabinas premature rupture of membranes who developed splenic rupture at 24 hours of life.Initially, the i
