Analytical Computation of Power Grids’ Sensitivity Coefficients with Voltage-Dependent Injections

Mario Paolone, Sherif Alaa Salaheldin Fahmy

With the increasing need of real-time regulation in power systems, grid-aware-control-frameworks are relying more often on sensitivity coefficients (SCs) to formulate and efficiently solve optimal control problems. As known, SCs are the derivatives of cont ...

Further Results on Efficient Implementations of Block Cipher Linear Layers

Subhadeep Banik

At the FSE conference of ToSC 2018, Kranz et al. presented their results on shortest linear programs for the linear layers of several well known block ciphers in literature. Shortest linear programs are essentially the minimum number of 2-input xor gates r ...

3D Smith chart constant quality factor semi-circles contours for positive and negative resistance circuits

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Andrei Müller

The article firstly proves that the constant quality factor (Q) contours for passive circuits, while represented on a 2D Smith chart, form circle arcs on a coaxal circle family. Furthermore, these circle arcs represent semi-circles families in the north he ...

A Laplacian approach to stubborn agents and their role in opinion formation on influence networks

Melvyn Sandy Tyloo

Within the framework of a simple model for social influence, the Taylor model, we analytically investigate the role of stubborn agents in the overall opinion dynamics of networked systems. Similar to zealots, stubborn agents are biased towards a certain op ...
