    Relieving network congestions is a critical goal for the safe and flexible operation of modern power systems, especially in the presence of intermittent renewables or distributed generation. This paper deals with the real-time coordinated operation of distributed static series compensators (DSSCs) to remove network congestions by suitable modifications of the branch reactance. Several objective functions are considered and discussed to minimize the number of the devices involved in the control actions, the total losses or the total reactive power exchanged, leading to a non-convex mixed-integer non-linear programming problem. Then, a heuristic methodology combining the solution of a regular NLP with k-means clustering algorithm is proposed to get rid of the binary variables, in an attempt to reduce the computational cost. The proposed coordinated operation strategy of the DSSCs is tested on several benchmark systems, providing feasible and sufficiently optimal solutions in a reasonable time frame for practical systems

    In recent years, populations of the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri Kuwayama (Hemiptera: Liviidae), have increased in rural citrus orchards and urban backyard gardens. In order to find biological control options for D. citri, a search for natural enemies was conducted in the department of Valle del Cauca, Colombia. The collections were carried out in citrus orchards in rural areas and house gardens and street trees in urban areas. Natural enemies were collected from D. citri found on Citrus spp. and Murraya paniculata (L.) Jack (Rutaceae). A total of 16 species of natural enemies of D. citri distributed in six families in fi ve orders are reported from Colombia. Herein we provide an updated list of 95 species of arthropod (arachnids and insects) natural enemies of D. citri distributed in nine orders and 23 families recorded worldwide

    This article shows a methodology for the technical and economic analysis of the incorporation of Facts devices in electrical power systems. The methodology proposed consists of a deterministic stage and a stochastic stage which involve aspects of technical and economic feasibility, respectively. The first stage is based on a non-linear binary mixed programming model developed at AMPL in order to minimize generation of safety given the location of a Facts device. The second stage employs an energetic model based on a stochastic dynamic dual programming (SDDP) which determines the cost-benefit ratios of the incorporation of Facts for different hydrothermal series. In order to illustrate the applicability of the methodology proposed, a case study is shown in the Colombian electrical system, taking into account the incorporation of a Statcom in the Atlantic Coast. Additionally, it is shown that the solution proposed resolves oscillatory instability problems of power, identified in minimum generation scenarios before critical contingencies.En este artículo se presenta una metodología para el análisis técnico y económico de la incorporación de dispositivos Facts en sistemas eléctricos de potencia. La metodología propuesta consta de una fase determinista y una estocástica que consideran aspectos de factibilidad técnica y económica, respectivamente. La primera fase se basa en un modelo de programación no lineal binario mixto desarrollado en AMPL que pretende minimizar la generación de seguridad dada la ubicación de un dispositivo Facts. La segunda fase utiliza un modelo energético basado en programación dual dinámica estocástica (SDDP) que determina las relaciones beneficio/costo de la incorporación de Facts para diferentes series hidrotérmicas. Para ilustrar la aplicabilidad de la metodología propuesta se presenta un estudio de caso en el sistema eléctrico colombiano considerando la incorporación de un Statcom en la costa atlántica. Adicionalmente, se muestra que la solución propuesta resuelve problemas de inestabilidad oscilatoria de tensión identificados en escenarios mínimos de generación ante contingencias críticas.Neste artigo, apresenta-se uma metodologia para a análise técnica e econômica da incorporação de dispositivos Facts em sistemas elétricos de potência.

    Diagnostico del látex en árboles con fuste de Hevea brasiliensis injertados en la copa con clones de Hevea pauciflora en el Piedemonte Amazónico

    Dentro de un proyecto del Instituto Amazónico de Investigaciones Científicas SINCHI en convenio con la Asociación de Heveicultores del Caquetá ASOHECA y la Universidad de la Amazonia, en el Centro de Investigaciones Amazónico Macagual, localizado en el municipio de Florencia, Caquetá, a una altura de 326 m.s.n.m., con temperatura media de 26ºC y precipitación de 3695 mm al año, se realizó un estudio con el objetivo de evaluar parámetros fisiológicos del látex y medidas dasométricas de cada árbol que permitan seleccionar en forma temprana clones de caucho. Se utilizó estadística descriptiva para la selección de nueve combinaciones de Hevea brasiliensis injertados en la copa de Hevea pauciflora. La duración de escurrimiento (asociada a sólidos totales) y fósforo inorgánico y sacarosa (asociados a la regeneración del látex) fueron las variables mas importantes consideradas para la selección de clones. Las combinaciones PB2859/CPAAC15, RRIM703/PA31 y RRIM600/CBA1 sobresalieron en comparación de las demás. Se sugiere seguir con la utilización de estas combinaciones en cultivos a gran escala en otras regiones del Caquetá
