The ongoing modernization of the power system, involving new equipment installations and upgrades, exposes the power system to the introduction of malware into its operation through supply chain attacks. Supply chain attacks present a significant threat to power systems, allowing cybercriminals to bypass network defens...

The first law of thermodynamics restates the law of conservation of energy. It partitions the change in energy of a system into two pieces, heat and work. While there is no ambiguity to define heat and work in classical thermodynamics, their classification in the quantum regime is not that obvious. Thus, the first law ...

Let $\mathbb{A}=\{z: r< |z|<R\}$ and $\A^\ast=\{z: r^\ast<|z|<R^\ast\}$ be annuli in the complex plane. Let $p\in[1,2]$ and assume that $\mathcal{H}^{1,p}(\A,\A^*)$ is the class of Sobolev homeomorphisms between $\A$ and $\A^*$, $h:\A\onto \A^*$. Then we consider the following Dirichlet type energy of $h$: $$\mathcal{F...

Climate change mitigation in urban mobility requires policies reconfiguring urban form to increase accessibility and facilitate low-carbon modes of transport. However, current policy research has insufficiently assessed urban form effects on car travel at three levels: (1) Causality -- Can causality be established beyo...

A Lorenz hull is the convex hull of the range of an $n$-dimensional vector of finite signed measures defined on a common measurable space. We show that the set of $n$-dimensional Lorenz hulls is endowed with a natural product that is commutative, associative, and distributive over Minkowski sums. The same holds with "z...

DyRu2Si2 is a frustrated magnet to exhibit multiple magnetic phase transition in zero and finite magnetic fields. We investigated and characterized the phase transition between the partially-ordered antiferromagnetic phases at zero field by ac susceptibility measurements. Detailed ac susceptibility measurements reveal ...
