Vortex Search Algorithm for Optimal Sizing of Distributed Generators in AC Distribution Networks with Radial Topology
(Springer, 2019)
This paper proposes a vortex search algorithm (VSA) optimization for optimal dimensioning of distributed generators (DGs), in radial alternating current (AC) distribution networks. The VSA corresponds to a metaheuristic ...
Integration of PV Arrays in DC Power Grids via Unidirectional Boost Converters: A PBC Approach
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018)
This paper presents a general control design for photovoltaic systems integrated with Direct-Current power grids by using an unidirectional boost converter. Passivity-based control (PBC) theory is used as a control technique ...
Analysis of Power Losses in Electric Distribution System Using a MATLAB-Based Graphical User Interface (GUI)
(Springer, 2019)
This paper describes a graphical user interface (GUI) developed in MATLAB that provides a user-friendly environment for analyzing the power loss behavior in distribution networks with radial configurations. This GUI allows ...
Adoption barriers for electric vehicles: Experiences from early adopters in Sweden
(Elsevier Ltd, 2017)
Electric vehicles are considered as one of the most effective technologies for reducing current greenhouse gas emissions from the transport sector. Although in many countries, local and national governments have introduced ...
Energy consumption feedback devices' impact evaluation on domestic energy use
(Elsevier Ltd, 2013)
Household energy accounts for one of the major contributors to the countries energy balances. It has been shown, that an effective way to achieve energy saving in that sector, is by providing consumers with information and ...
A preliminary analysis for selecting the best hydrological probability density functions of annual peak flows associated to various return periods in some rivers of Colombia
(2021-11-01)
Analysis of extreme events of annual flow peaks are used for sizing hydraulic structures for specified return period. Cumulative distribution functions are applied to annual flow peak records in order to obtain extreme ...
A practical methodology of design of off-line reservoirs for reducing maximum water levels in urban channels
(2020-08-06)
Flooding can often occur in many places due to the increasing trend of rainfall events (climate change), the urbanization process of a catchment area, or by an undersized urban channel. Reservoirs are used for limiting ...
A Generic Materials and Operations Planning Approach for Inventory Turnover Optimization in the Chemical Industry
(2020-05-22)
Chemical industries usually involve continuous and large-scale production processes that require demanding inventory control systems. This paper aims to show the results of the implementation of a mixed-integer programming ...
Adaptive Control of a Single-Phase Grid-Forming for Feeding Unknown Resistive Loads
(2022-03-24)
This research aims to relate Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in the processes of distribution and use of knowledge in Higher Education Institutions (HEI). The methodology used was based on the quantitative ...
A predictive model for the missing people problem
(2021-03-01)
The disappearance of people is a multidimensional phenomenon, in which several aspects must be considered. It affects people’s security perception and consumes police resources in its treatment. Therefore, does exists an ...
