Download or read book Planning and Operation Strategies for Enhancing Power System Flexibility in Low Carbon Energy Transition written by Mingfei Ban and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-02-21 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global energy system is undergoing a profound transformation from a system based mainly on fossil fuels to a low-carbon one based on variable renewable energy (VRE), such as wind power and solar power, to achieve the 2050 Paris Agreement. By 2050, solar and wind power, with more than 14,500 GW installed capacity, would account for three-fifths of global electricity generation. This transformation comes with significant challenges since high VRE shares will greatly increase system flexibility requirements for balancing supply and demand. Accordingly, all sectors of the power system need to unlock further requisite flexibility through technology, business, and policy innovations, including power supply, transmission, distribution, storage, and demand.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adult ADHD: Diagnostic Assessment and Treatment, Third Edition covers not only diagnostic assessment, but also comorbidity patterns as well as differential diagnosis of ADHD with for example bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder. The symptom overlap and misdiagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome in girls and women with the inattentive subtype of ADHD, ADD is explored. The chronic delayed sleep phase syndrome associated with ADHD based on disturbances in the circadian rhythm, and the possible consequences for general health (obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and cancer) are discussed. There are sections on ADHD and intelligence, criminality, sexuality, dyslexia and autism. Adult ADHD can be treated effectively but as yet the disorder is not always recognised by professionals and this book aims to help correct this. Diagnostic tools are included, such as the structured Diagnostic Interview for Adult ADHD (DIVA), and an ultra-short and somewhat longer screening tool, all based on the DSM-IV criteria for ADHD. Treatment options cover psychoeducation and motivation and individual and group coaching; long-acting stimulants and other new drugs for treating ADHD; use of melatonin to treat the delayed sleep-phase disorder. Useful information is included on the setting up and organisation of a department for adult ADHD with a multidisciplinary team. References, websites and useful international addresses have all been updated. Adult ADHD: Diagnostic Assessment and Treatment, Third Edition is intended for students, junior doctors/residents, psychologists, psychiatrists, other mental healthcare professionals and interested parties and provides a quick overview of the current state of the science and of the methods used in diagnosis and treatment. Adult ADHD: Diagnostic Assessment and Treatment, Third Edition was originally published by Pearson Assessment and Information BV, The Netherlands.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mediumistically gifted people have been a source of creative action in various cultures from time immemorial—be it in the arts or as seers and advisors. When we feel the divine spark flowing into our being, a bridge is built between the material and the ethereal world, allowing essential information and decision-making aids to be imparted to us. The capability for extrasensory perception is inherent in each of us; we only have to recognize it. In The Sensory Channel to the Spiritual World, the author's first major work, Linda Roethlisberger explores insights into knowledge she receives as a medium. She delves into our human mediumistic dispositions, how and why we would do well to actively develop them and, above all, the positive and meaningful value which continuous inner work has for us in our everyday life, including our working life, at a very practical level. The clearly structured course book teaches you everything you need to know for building this bridge. The many tried-and-tested exercises enable you to unfold spiritually in dialogue with your spiritual companions and to expand the gates of your perception.
Download or read book Casindra Lost written by Marti Ward and published by Supres. This book was released on 2023-09-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "there's a difference between being a loner and being alone" A 3.5 year mission from which they'll never return, a 2.5 million lightyear journey to another galaxy, a 1.5 member crew comprising a solitary captain and a half-baked AI... Captain Sideris is a loner and knows LETO ships like nobody else, having risen to command the Lunar-Earth construction fleet, as they build ships to mine asteroids and colonize Mars. Suddenly he finds the colonization effort is for another planet, in another galaxy, and he's the sole human guinea pig being gated through a wormhole with an AI playing Noah to LETO SS Casindra's ark. Everything goes well as he starts to survey four planets they plan to exploit, as he gets to know emergent AI 'Al', as he discovers he's building a special relationship with empathic cat 'Simba'. Problem is message drones gated home are not being returned per protocol, with little explanation, no supplies, and some cryptic and disturbing messages. This full length novel reminiscent of Clarke and Asimov is set in the multi-author multi-genre Paradisi universe. Casindra Lost opens the Lost Mission Series which explains what happened to some of the early missions that underlie the various Paradisi colonization and post-colonization stories. Welcome to the Paradisi Chronicles... It's not Alice down the rabbithole, but Sideris down the wormhole. And that's just the start of the story. It's not the old man and the sea, more like the old man and the galaxy. The enemy is not a whale, but a whale of an asteroid... And that's the start of another story. Word to the Wise: This is the Lost Mission Series. So it's not really a cliffhanger ending when the missions end up, you know, lost! For those that are familiar with the Paradisi Chronicles universe already, this series fills in backstory to the earlier books. Casindra Lost and Moraturi Lost take us on two different ships as they commence their mission, and each is the start of a separate arc, arcs that take several books to resolve. But the stories are not independent, and intertwine in a multitude of ways - still you can read either arc independently, starting either one and picking up the other later. Casindra Lost won the Gold Medal in Science Fiction in the 2021 Global Book Awards for Self-Publishing, and Moraturi Lost won Silver in Science Fiction/Adventure. Moraturi Ring won Silver for Science Fiction Series in the 2021 Global Book Awards. "If you enjoyed The Martian, and were looking for something better than Ad Astra, Casindra Lost is for you!"

Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A poignant and tender story of love, loss, passion, and the fragile threads that bind families together from the author of The Nightingale. “A beautifully simple, deeply compassionate story.”—Diana Gabaldon Annie Colwater's only child has just left home for school abroad. On that same day, her husband of twenty years confesses that he's in love with a younger woman. Alone in the house that is no longer a home, Annie comes to the painful realization that for years she has been slowly disappearing. Lonely and afraid, she retreats to Mystic, the small Washington town where she grew up, hoping that there she can reclaim the woman she once was—the woman she is now desperate to become again. In Mystic, she is reunited with her first love, Nick Delacroix, a recent widower unable to cope with his grieving, too-silent six-year-old daughter, Izzie. Together, the three of them begin to heal, and, at last, Annie learns that she can love without losing herself. But just when she has found a second chance at happiness, her life is turned upside down again, and Annie must make a choice no woman should have to make. . . .

Download or read book ADHD on Trial written by Michael Gordon and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2009-03-05 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2006 Philadelphia, graduate student Jonathan Love sued the organization that publishes the Law School Admissions Test. Love had attained average scores on the test, but claimed he should have been given extra time because he qualified as a person with a disability - and allowances provided by the Americans with Disabilities Act - due to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. The case, which drew in author psychologist Michael Gordon as an expert witness for the defense, reached federal court and resulted in a precedent-setting ruling still as controversial as the disorder that triggered the trial. In this work, Gordon takes us into the courtroom and behind the scenes with attorneys and experts to look not only at this trial, but more than a dozen others that have involved ADHD or other psychiatric diagnoses, and the questions they raise, including what the real meaning of disability is, how malingering can be an issue with psychological disorders, and what the more far-reaching effects for the public can be if accommodations are provided to people who do not have a legally-defined disability. When does deference to an individual with a disorder like ADHD begin to invade the rights of the non-disabled? Controversy fills these pages, from discussion of ADHD and the debate over its justifiability as a disability to public reactions regarding the ruling in Love's case and others. Comparisons and contrasts are also raised between the Love trial and earlier cases involving people claiming psychological disabilities who fought actions by The National Board of Medical Examiners, United Airlines, Toyota Motor Manufacturing, the Georgia State Board of Veterinary Medicine, and other organizations. Do the decisions help or harm disability rights and people with disabilities? Gordon offers the insights not only of a psychologist, but a seasoned legal insider who has testified as an expert witness at many of the trials.
