Abstract: Sexual knowledge is an important part of every life and it is necessary for clinicians to have a specific format in which to address sexual issues with their patients. A systematic approach to working with female spinal cord injury (SCI) patients need to present their sexual knowledge and experience. To explore the sexual knowledge and experience of women with spinal cord injury in the community level. The researcher conducted a mixed method research. In order to assess sexuality a standard questionnaire was developed on the basis of the clinical experience and review of relevant literature. The items of the questionnaire were selected keeping in mind the complex culture and principles of our society. VAS scale and likert scale was used to measure 9 close questions related to sexual knowledge and experience. Another 2 open ended question explored their perception how they maintain good relation and what they want to know from the rehabilitation program. Paired ‘t’ test was used for identify the quality of sexual life. The total participant was 30. Mean ages were 30.73 ± 7.47 years. Mean duration of injury was 7.733 years. Of the participants 17 (56.7%) live in rural and 13 (43.3%) live in urban. The participant 23 (76.7%) was married before injury, 7 (23.3%) was married after injury. The study result was who stay in urban area their sexual happiness means score (54.384) was more than who stay in rural area (35.47). Married after injury (7 women) their mean sexual happiness score (72%) was more than who was married (23 women) before injury (mean score 33.82) and Significantly difference (P<0.05) quality of sexual life before and after injury. 50% of participant indicated that support of husband was not much and not at all. Advice from the participants for maintaining good relationship, financial independence, self-confidence, copes with the present situation is important. Participants want to know proper guidance after operation and different individual problem-solving technique in the rehabilitation education program. This study present important information with regards for improving sexual rehabilitation services to women with SCI.

Abstract: Frequency stability is one of the crucial indicators of electric power system. Pumped storage hydro (PSH) serves to improve grid security and achieve cost effectiveness and efficiency of overall power system. Frequency regulation is one of PSH's important ancillary services offered to grid. Based on the conventional classifications of frequency regulation, ie., primary frequency regulation (PFR), secondary frequency regulation (SFR) and tertiary frequency regulation (TFR), this paper explores the interreaction process of generation and grid in detailed and proposes two more frequency regulations which are defined as initial frequency regulation (IFR) and 2.5th frequency regulation (contingency frequency regulation, CFR). Therefore the principles and characteristics of five types of frequency regulation are introduced and presented, and performance and economics of various generation units such as hydro, coal-fired, gas, gas combined-cycle and PSH that are engaged in five types of frequency regulation are compared and analyzied in this paper. Especially, the performance of PSH on CFR are illustrated in detail with successful operations of several pump-storage power plants in East China and North China grid under the circumstance of contingency. In one hand PSH's competence on CFR is advantageous compared to other generation units, in the otherhand since the PSH's compensation from frequency regulation is too minor, and more importantly, to avoid mix-up of CFR and contingency reserve which is the core competence of PSH, rhetorical assessment is not proposed on PSH's capability at CFR.
