Optimal operation of the microgrid in presence of electric vehicles considering demand response

Microgrid is a collection of electric loads, distributed generation units and battery storage operating as a controllable load which is able to supply the local loads. Air pollution due to fossil fueled vehicles increase by faculties development. Besides, shortage in fossil fuels increase the trends into electric vehicles. In this paper, optimal stochastic operation problem of microgrid in pres...

Secure Electric Power Grid Operation

This thesis examines two problems concerning the secure and reliable operation of the electric power grid. The first part studies the distributed operation of the electric power grid using the power flow problem, which is vital to the operation of the grid. The power flow problem is a feasibility problem for finding an assignment of complex bus voltages that satisfies the power flow equations a...

Spontaneous shears in smectic elastomers.

We model the spontaneous elastic shear deformations of smectic elastomers as they make the thermal transition between the A and C phases. Tilt of the director is accompanied by shear. Unlike nematic elastomers where spontaneous elongation is associated with changes in the magnitude of order, spontaneous distortion in smectics is instead shear and is associated with rotation of the director of t...

Shears from shapelets

Aims. Accurate measurement of gravitational shear from images of distant galaxies is one of the most direct ways of studying the distribution of mass in the universe. We describe an implementation of a technique that is based on the shapelets formalism. Methods. The shapelets technique describes PSF and observed images in terms of Gauss-Hermite expansions (Gaussians times polynomials). It allow...
