DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.
Electric vehicle and photovoltaic advanced roles in enhancing the financial p...IJECEIAES
Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network

Principles of Viscosity & Definitions
Viscosity is a quantity describing a fluid’s resistance to flow. Fluids
resist the relative motion of immersed objects through them as well as
to the motion of layers with differing velocities within them.
Formally, viscosity (represented by the symbol η) is the ratio of the
shearing stress (F/A) to the velocity gradient (Δvx/Δz or dvx/dz) in a fluid.

The more usual form of this relationship is called “Newton’s equation.”
It states the resulting shear of a fluid is directly proportional to the force
applied and inversely proportional to its viscosity. Note the similarity to
Newton’s second law of motion (F = ma).

Viscosity SI Units
According to NIST’s Guide for the International System of Units (SI), the
proper SI units for expressing values of viscosity η (also called
dynamic viscosity) and values of kinematic viscosity ν are, respectively,
the Pascal second (Pa·s) and the meter squared per second (m2/s) (and
their decimal multiples and submultiples as appropriate).
The Pascal second [Pa·s] has no special name. And, although touted as
an international system, the International System of Units (SI) has had
very little international impact. The Pascal second is rarely used in sci-entific
and technical publications today.
The most common unit of viscosity is the dyne second per square
centimeter (dyne · s/cm2), which is given the name poise (P) after the
French physiologist Jean Louis Poiseuille (1799-1869). Ten poise equal
one Pascal second (Pa·s) making the centipoise (cP) and millipascal
second (mPa·s) identical.

Viscosity
There are actually two quantities called viscosity. The quantity defined
above usually is just called viscosity. However, it sometimes is also
called dynamic viscosity, absolute viscosity, or simple viscosity to dis-tinguish
it from the other quantity.

Va = dynamic, absolute, or simple viscosity

Kinematic Viscosity
The other quantity, called kinematic viscosity (represented by the sym-bol
ν), is the ratio of the viscosity of a fluid to its density.
v =

Kinematic viscosity is a measure of the resistive flow of a fluid under
the influence of gravity. It is frequently measured by a “capillary
viscometer” — basically a graduated can with a narrow tube at the bot-tom.
When two fluids of equal volume are placed in identical capillary
viscometers and allowed to flow under the influence of gravity, a
viscous fluid takes longer than a less viscous fluid to flow through the
tube.

Kv
The SI unit of kinematic viscosity is the square meter per second (m2/s),
which also has no special name. This unit is so large it is rarely used. A
more common unit of kinematic viscosity is the square centimeter per
second (cm2/s), which has been given the name stoke [St] after the Eng-lish
scientist George Stoke. Since this unit is also large, the more com-monly
used unit is the square millimeter per second (mm2/s) or centis-toke
(cSt).
According to NIST’s Guide for the International System of Units (SI), the
CGS units commonly used to express values of these quantities, the
poise (P) and the stokes (St), respectively [and their decimal submulti-ples
the centipoise (cP) and the centistoke (cSt)], are not to be used.
However, since CGS units are, in fact, the most widely used terms, they
are included in this ISA Handbook.

Measuring Viscosity
Hagen-Poiseuille’s Law
French physician and physiologist Jean Poiseuille, while developing an
improved method for measuring blood pressure, formulated a mathe-matical
expression for the flow rate for the laminar (nonturbulent) flow
of fluids in circular tubes. Discovered independently by Gotthilf Hagen,
a German hydraulic engineer, this relation is also known as the Hagen-
Poiseuille equation, or Hagen-Poiseuille Law.
For laminar, non-pulsatile fluid flow through a uniform straight pipe, the
flow rate (volume per unit time) is:
• directly proportional to the pressure difference between the
ends of the tube,
• inversely proportional to the length of the tube,
• inversely proportional to the viscosity of the fluid, and
• proportional to the fourth power of the radius of the tube.

Stoke’s Law
George Gabriel Stokes, an Irish-born mathematician who spent much of
his life working with fluid properties, is most famous for his work
describing the motion of a sphere through viscous fluids. This led to the
development of Stokes’s Law – an equation that shows the force
needed to move a small sphere through a continuous, quiescent fluid at
a certain velocity. It is based primarily on the radius of the sphere
and the viscosity of the fluid. He found what has become known as
Stokes’ Law:
The drag force on a sphere of radius (R) moving through a fluid of vis-cosity
η at speed Vc is given by:
F(drag) = 6πRηVc
Where
R = the radius of the sphere
η = the viscosity
Vc = the velocity through a continuous fluid
The faster a sphere falls through a fluid, the lower the viscosity. The
measurement involves dropping a sphere through a measured
distance of fluid and measuring how long it takes to traverse the distance.
