Optimized FTR portfolio construction: the speculator's problem
… an optimized financial transmission rights (FTR) portfolio for the speculator, who purchases FTR holdings in order to have returns that are as good as possible. The conventional approach of selecting the FTR in a portfolio requires the exhaustive evaluation of all the possible FTR …

Optimized FTR portfolio construction for market participants in a multi-period horizon
Financial transmission rights (FTR) are hedging instruments that entitle their holders to receive reimbursements from the independent system operator (ISO) for the congestion rents when congestion happens in the direction specified by the FTR source and sink nodes. In this thesis, we extend the …

The effects of treadmill and voluntary wheel training on morbidity and inflammation during ulcerative colitis in mice
… exercise training (30 sessions of treadmill-FTR and 30 days of voluntary wheel running-VWR) effects on morbidity and inflammation in a dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis model in C57Bl/6J mice. We hypothesized that FTR and VWR would improve indices of morbidity and inflammation …

MULTI-STAGE MULTI-MARKET OPTIMAL BIDDING STRATEGY IN ELECTRICITY MARKETS
… this surplus to the MPs through the FTR auction. The FTR value is dependent to the DA LMP. That is, the DA market and FTR auction are interrelated from a MP’s viewpoint. Furthermore, a strategic MP may tend to manipulate the FTR value employing the virtual transactions to improve its …

The Impact of Nursing Skill Mix on the Outcomes of Hospitalized Adult Surgical Patients
… variations in mortality and failure to rescue (FTR) persist between hospitals. Despite the critical role that registered nurses (RNs) play in providing care to hospitalized patients, there has been limited exploration of the relationship between nursing skill mix and surgical patient outcomes. …

A Framework for Congestion Management Analysis
… to the study of the revenue adequacy for the FTR issuer and the design of secondary FTR markets with added liquidity. The extension of the framework for applications to issues over longer time horizon is also discussed. Extensive simulation results are included to support the analytical …

Analysis of Financial Transmission Rights Obligations and Hourly Congestion Prices in PJM Markets
In this research we analyze patterns of FTR obligation contracts using hourly data from January 1st, 2015 through December 31st, 2018 between PJM Western and AEP Dayton hubs and concluded that there are positive net profits in FTR obligation contracts if someone were to buy and hold the contracts …

Signal detection for pediatric patient deterioration in simulation with nursing students : a mixed methods study
… it is known as a failure to rescue (FTR). Pediatric patients in the hospital are at risk of being harmed or dying due to FTR. Pediatric patient deterioration detection poses a different challenge because pediatric patients physiologically respond differently from adults. Student …

L'estigma dels professionals de la salut envers les persones amb trastorns mentals
… llar (SALL), la Fundació Tutelar del Ripollès (FTR) i al Servei de Rehabilitació Comunitària de Salut Mental del Ripollès (SRCR). També 19 professionals de suport vinculats a SALL i FTR. Les persones ateses perceben un tracte respectuós i empàtic, amb poca presència d'estigmatització. Els …

Optimization of Financial Transmission Right Portfolios Using Risk-Reward Analysis of Deregulated Power Systems
Financial Transmission Rights (FTR) is an investment that protects the market customers from price uncertainty in the case of transmission line congestion. Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland Interconnection (PJM) allows bidding of FTR's on various transmission paths. This thesis investigates …

Advanced framework for assessment and reduction of model form uncertainty of the closure laws in thermal-hydraulics codes
… of the TRACE system code in modeling of FTR phenomena. Under model form uncertainty estimated in this work, TRACE predicted FTR event for all validation experiments.

Characterization of the thioredoxin system in Methanosarcina mazei
… donor and ferredoxin thioredxoin reductase (FTR) which depends on reduced ferredoxin as electron donor. Although NTR is widely distributed in the three domains of life, it is absent in some archaea, whereas FTRs are mostly found in plants, photosynthetic eukaryotes, cyanobacteria, and some …

Analysis of Methylotrophic Methanogenesis in Methanosarcina Barkeri Fusaro
… or the formyl-MF:H4 MPT formyltransferase (ftr) were unable to grow on methanol. However, both the mtr and mer deletion strains were still able to oxidize methanol to carbon dioxide in cell suspension. Therefore, a bypass of a portion of the main C-1 oxidation pathway was possible but this …

Sulfite reductase and thioredoxin in oxidative stress responses of methanogenic archaea
… ferredoxin-dependent thioredoxin reductase (FTR), in all organisms. We found that FTR was most likely originated in the phylogenetically deeply-rooted microaerophilic bacteria where it regulates CO₂ fixation via the reverse citric acid cycle.

A High-Q Micromachined Quatrefoil Suspension Gyroscope
… the gyroscope using the force-to-rebalance (FTR) method. The QSG showed a linear response in the range ±400 °/s: above this range measurements were limited by the benchtop electronics employed for these measurements. \par Finally, this thesis also discusses gyroscopic operation using …
