Thus, enhancing distribution system resilience against this catastrophic natural hazard is essential and imperative. Commonly researchers have used two-dimensional (2D) surface flow models to evaluate flood risk on power systems. Though these 2D models can provide descriptions of overland flow propagation, they fail to provide overflow locations which are crucial in flash flood modelling. Furthermore, these models are computationally expensive, hence not suitable for real-time analysis. Therefore, this study presents a probabilistic flood model that is easy to develop and can handle heavy uncertainties related to urban flash flooding. In this respect, the Monte Carlo technique is employed to predict overflow locations in a grid-based environment. Considering rainfall intensity, soil moisture, and curvature of the surface, reinforcement learning is then leveraged to trace the flow path of floodwater from these overflow locations, to identify distribution substations at the risk of inundation. The proposed flood model is applied to IEEE 33-bus and a real 23-bus distribution systems considering a hypothetical terrain and validated on a real urban area. This work will assist decision-makers and utility operators in enhancing power system resiliency to urban flash floods while overcoming the barriers of limited data and time.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48648,"journal":{"name":"Ain Shams Engineering Journal","volume":"16 3","pages":"Article 103325"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143509026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous studies have investigated various shapes and conditions, but there is a significant research gap in studying the fluid flow and thermal performance of hexagonal enclosures with circular obstacles under natural convection regimes with the application of magnetic fields. Thus, this study plans to inspect the fluid behavior and thermal performance in a hexagonal-shaped enclosure with a heated bottom wall and circular obstacle using Casson fluid. The variables chosen for analysis include the Hartmann number (0 ≤ Ha ≤ 100), aspect ratio (0.10 ≤ AR ≤ 0.20), Casson number (1 ≤ β ≤ 10), Lewis number (1 ≤ Le ≤ 10), buoyancy ratio (1 ≤ N ≤ 10), and inclination angle of the magnetic field (0° ≤ γ ≤ 90°). The findings are plotted as streamlines, isotherms, <em>iso</em>-concentration plots, and variable plots of average Nusselt and Sherwood numbers for various Casson numbers, buoyancy ratios, Lewis numbers, and inclination angles for variable Hartmann numbers. Results show that both aspect ratio and Hartmann number increase the thermal performance and mass transfer in the enclosure. Buoyancy ratio and inclination angle have a significant role in increasing heat transfer rate. On the other hand, higher Casson number, Lewis number, and buoyancy ratio ensure better mass transfer in the study.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48648,"journal":{"name":"Ain Shams Engineering Journal","volume":"16 4","pages":"Article 103330"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143591506","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, maintaining robust connectivity is challenging due to urban environments and network variability in vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication systems. This paper proposes a novel framework for link adaptation and multi-objective resource optimization, leveraging power-domain non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) and blind reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (IRS). The proposed method incorporates a multi-agent Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) model, where each agent dynamically allocates resources by optimizing power control and scheduling based on real-time network data and traffic patterns. Our approach uses IRS to enhance signal quality and extend coverage even in complex and highly dynamic environments, while the multi-agent DRL framework with graph attention mechanisms enables decentralized and scalable resource management. The agents learn from the environment, adjusting resource allocation across multiple objectives, such as maximizing throughput, improving energy efficiency, and ensuring reliable connectivity. By optimizing power allocation and link adaptation, the framework addresses the challenges of channel variability and improves network performance without requiring precise channel state information (CSI). Simulation results show that the proposed approach achieved significant improvements in both energy efficiency and throughput compared to conventional methods such as NFVMCH and HetVNet. Additionally, the throughput of TRONICS scales effectively, reaching nearly 55 Mbps/Hz with 60 users per cluster, while competing methods only manage up to 26 Mbps/Hz, underscoring its advanced resource optimization capabilities.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48648,"journal":{"name":"Ain Shams Engineering Journal","volume":"16 4","pages":"Article 103331"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143562262","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Transmission Switching (TS) can influence rotor angle transient stability (RATS). The alteration of the short-circuit power at points of interconnection of certain generators (POIs) due to switching can cause those generators to lose stability post-clearance of severe network faults. Therefore, it is imperative that RATS be taken into account when adopt switching in transmission networks. In the literature, analyses of generator angle separation only during and after fault incidence are used for predicting RATS issues. This can be quite challenging for network operators in terms of the available time for carrying out mitigating actions. Generation redispatch, among other measures, can be utilized to preserve RATS post-network switching. In previous work, the authors addressed the optimization of transmission network switching using steady state analysis as an inexpensive way to manage increased short circuit currents amid large-scale generation integration in some networks. This paper is the sequel of the previous work where the preservation of RATS amid such switching actions is addressed. An algorithm for preserving RATS after switching is proposed. The algorithm depends on the MATLAB regression learner that identifies the best heuristic technique for a solution with the least root mean square error (RMSE). PSS®E is utilized to run the simulations on a real-size practical extra-high voltage network. The results are then fed to the MATLAB regression learner, which identifies the relation between the impedance seen by each generator and the altered setpoints (e.g., generator dispatch). The algorithm therefore provides sufficient time for network operators to react to expected RATS issues since it anticipates these issues before fault events occur. Additionally, this algorithm enhances the industry-based software used for transient security assessment because it eliminates the need to run all the network contingencies every time if the relation between the impedance and the setpoints is kept within desirable values.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48648,"journal":{"name":"Ain Shams Engineering Journal","volume":"16 4","pages":"Article 103329"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143548624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
