Power System Modeling of 20% Wind-Generated Electricity by 2030 Preprint R. O'Connell Conference Paper Power System Modeling of 20% Wind- Generated Electricity by 2030
Abstract-The Wind Energy Deployment System model was used to estimate the costs and benefits associated with producing 20% of the nation's electricity from wind technology by 2030. This generation capacity expansion model selects from electricity generation technologies that include pulverized coal plants, combined cycle natural gas plants, combustion turbine natural gas plants, nuclear plants, and wind technology to meet projected demand in future years. Technology cost and performance projections, as well as transmission operation and expansion costs, are assumed. This study demonstrates that producing 20% of the nation's projected electricity demand in 2030 from wind technology is technically feasible, not cost-prohibitive, and provides benefits in the forms of carbon emission reductions, natural gas price reductions, and water savings

Shroom2 regulates contractility to control endothelial morphogenesis
Shroom2 regulates proper endothelial morphogenesis through a direct interaction with Rho kinase and the subsequent assembly of a cortical actomyosin network. Loss of Shroom2 results in decreased cell contractility and cytoskeletal organization and increased cell migration and angiogenesis
