The power of myth in impeding service innovation : A perspective gained from analysis of service providers' narratives
(2008-03-01)The author discusses a service innovation that was intended to create "woman-centered" maternity care in U.K. health care. This innovation has now fallen into disuse. The author explores and offers a partial explanation ... -
The power of past performance in multidimensional supplier evaluation and supplier selection: Debiasing anchoring bias and its knock-on effects
(2024-05-16)This research examines how anchoring bias affects managers’ multi-dimensional evaluations of supplier performance, supplier selection, and the effectiveness of two debiasing techniques. We consider the supplier past ... -
Power Optimisation and Relay Selection in Cooperative Wireless Communication Networks
(2018-06-14)Cooperative communications have emerged as a significant concept to improve reliability and throughput in wireless systems. In cooperative networks, the idea is to implement a scheme in wireless systems where the nodes can ... -
Power Quality Enhancement in Electricity Grids with Wind Energy Using Multicell Converters and Energy Storage
(2019-01-10)In recent years, the wind power industry is experiencing a rapid growth and more wind farms with larger size wind turbines are being connected to the power system. While this contributes to the overall security of electricity ... -
Power Quality Enhancement in Hybrid Photovoltaic-Battery System based on three–Level Inverter associated with DC bus Voltage Control
(2017-12-23)This modest paper presents a study on the energy quality produced by a hybrid system consisting of a Photovoltaic (PV) power source connected to a battery. A three-level inverter was used in the system studied for the ... -
Power Quality Enhancement of DFIG Based Wind Energy System Using Priority Control Strategies
(2015)The integration of intermittent renewable energy sources into the electric grid presents some challenges in terms of power quality issues, voltage regulation and stability. Power quality relates to those factors which ... -
Power Quality Improvement and Low Voltage Ride through Capability in Hybrid Wind-PV Farms Grid-Connected Using Dynamic Voltage Restorer
(2018-11-13)This paper proposes the application of a dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) to enhance the power quality and improve the low voltage ride through (LVRT) capability of a three-phase medium-voltage network connected to a hybrid ... -
Power Quality Improvement in Isolated Wind-Diesel Power System
(2017)Power quality related disturbances in electrical distribution networks have become a major concern for both network managers and operators associated with the continuous increase of renewable energy resources worldwide. ... -
Power relations and the production of new knowledge within a Queensland Music Festival community cultural development project
(2013)Conflict during the creative development process of community cultural development projects is inevitable (Adam and Goldbard 2001), yet through the productive use of power (Foucault 1977, 1980, 1982) new knowledge can be ... -
Power system security enhancement by HVDC links using a closed-loop emergency control
(2019-03-01)In recent years, guaranteeing that large-scale interconnected systems operate safely, stably and economically has become a major and emergency issue. A number of high profile blackouts caused by cascading outages have ... -
Power, Hegemony, and relationships in the festival planning and construction process
(2011)Purpose– This paper aims to develop an illustrative case study of power and hegemony involved inthe creation of a local community festival, through the representations of local communities’ culturesfrom various ethnic ... -
A Power-Aware Framework for Executing Streaming Programs on Networks-on-Chip
(2014-03-01)Software developers are discovering that practices which have successfully served single-core platforms for decades do no longer work for multi-cores. Stream processing is a parallel execution model that is well-suited for ... -
Powering lights with piezoelectric energy harvesting floors
(2018-05-09)The present work introduces a new technology for converting energy from steps into electricity. It starts with a study of the mechanical energy available from steps in a busy corridor. The subsequent development efforts ... -

The PPAR target gene CD36 is a rate limiting factor for the sensing of gram positive S-aureus in vascular smooth muscle cells but not in macrophages
(2008-08-01)Bacteria activate macrophages and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) resulting in induction of nitric oxide synthase (NOS)II activity. Here we show that the PPARc agonist rosiglitazone (rosi) increases the sensing of ... -
The PPARβ/δ agonist GW0742 prevents LPS-induced nitrite production in rat parenchyma but not in aorta or pulmonary arteries
(2014-12)Peroxisome Proliferator activated receptors (PPARs) are therapeutic targets in the treatment of inflammatory lung disease. The PPARβ/δ agonist GW0742 has potent anti-inflammatory effects in the vasculature (Kapoor et al ...
