A Novel Approach to the Investigation of Molecular Polarization Using MATLAB Application
Abstract: Molecular polarization involves the separation of electric charge in a molecule due to the result of aninduced external field leading to a dipole having a positive charge on one side and the negative charge atthe other end. This helps us to know the characteristics of molecules and how they react with others. It isalso helpful to know their physical and chemical properties. Molecular polarization also includes itsintermolecular forces, dielectric behavior …

Multi-Objective Optimization of Distributed Generator in the Transmission System
Abstract: This paper proposes a multi-objective optimization method to determine the optimal size allocation of four different types of distributed generators, that is, TYPE-1, TYPE-2, TYPE-3, and TYPE-4 in transmission networks. In one such optimization strategy, distributed generators are injected after the Newton–Raphson method, a popular power flow analysis tool, has been applied first. A power system’s steady-state operating conditions, including voltage magnitudes, phase angles, line flows, and power losses, can …

Role of Bioactive Compounds on Protein Utilization in Ruminants: A Review
Abstract: Insufficient nutrition is the primary drive of low productivity by ruminants. These insufficiencies can be corrected by supplementation with high-density feeds and locally available tree legumes. These tree legumes contain various types of bioactive compounds, which can be defined as secondary plant metabolites (PSM) that are extra nutritional substances having pharmacological or toxicological effects in man and animals. Besides the primary biosynthetic, the secondary metabolites are also produced within the …
