This study presents a simulation approach using MATLAB to model the Ferranti effect in Algerian power networks. The Ferranti effect, a phenomenon observed in long transmission lines, results in voltage rise at the receiving end due to capacitive coupling. Understanding and mitigating this effect are crucial for maintaining the stability and efficiency of power systems. By employing MATLAB simulations, various scenarios of Algerian power networks are analyzed to assess the impact of the Ferranti effect on voltage levels and system performance. The study provides insights into effective mitigation strategies to address voltage rise issues caused by the Ferranti effect, contributing to the optimization of power system operations in Algeria.

This study investigates the mechanical behavior of chemically treated jute/polymer composites, aiming to enhance their performance and suitability for various engineering applications. Jute fiber, a natural and renewable resource, is combined with polymer matrices to produce lightweight and eco-friendly composite materials. However, untreated jute fibers exhibit limitations in terms of adhesion and compatibility with polymer matrices, leading to suboptimal mechanical properties. Chemical treatments are employed to modify the surface characteristics of jute fibers, enhancing their interfacial adhesion with polymer matrices and improving composite performance. Through a series of experiments, including tensile testing, flexural testing, and impact testing, the mechanical properties of chemically treated jute/polymer composites are evaluated and compared with untreated counterparts. Preliminary findings suggest that chemical treatments result in significant improvements in tensile strength, flexural strength, and impact resistance of the composites. The enhanced mechanical behavior of chemically treated jute/polymer composites holds promise for a wide range of applications, including automotive components, construction materials, and consumer goods.

This randomized controlled trial investigates the impact of four weeks of yogic practice on various psychological variables among college women. Utilizing a pre-test post-test design, participants were randomly assigned to either a yoga intervention group or a control group. The yoga intervention group engaged in regular yoga sessions over the four-week period, while the control group maintained their usual activities. Pre-test and post-test assessments were conducted to measure changes in psychological variables, including stress levels, anxiety, depression, and overall well-being. Results indicate significant improvements in psychological variables among participants in the yoga intervention group compared to the control group. These findings highlight the potential benefits of yogic practice for enhancing mental health and well-being among college women.

This study investigates the impact of juror and defendant race on social identity dynamics within the Canadian courtroom. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, including surveys, interviews, and courtroom observations, we explore how racial diversity among jurors and defendants influences perceptions of fairness, bias, and social identity in legal proceedings. Preliminary findings suggest that the racial composition of juries and defendants can significantly influence trial outcomes and perceptions of justice. Factors such as racial stereotyping, implicit bias, and group dynamics play a crucial role in shaping juror decision-making and courtroom interactions. This research sheds light on the complexities of social identity dynamics in the Canadian legal system and offers insights into strategies for promoting diversity and fairness in the courtroom.
