Individually-controlled electric motors provide opportunities for enhancing the handling characteristics and energy efficiency of fully electric vehicles. Online power loss minimisation schemes based on electric motor efficiency data may, however, be impractical for real-time implementation due to the heavy computational demand. In this paper, the optimal wheel torque distribution for minimal p...

The use of marker-based pedigrees is increasing in aquaculture breeding, and obtaining high assignment rates is necessary for practical use of this methodology. In this paper, we used 12 real parentage assignment datasets from three species (European sea bass Dicentrarchus labrax, common carp Cyprinus carpio and rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss) to investigate the relationships between theoret...

This paper investigates the use of reinforcement learning in electric power system emergency control. The approach consists of using numerical simulations together with on-policy Monte Carlo control to determine a discrete switching control law to trip generators so as to avoid loss of synchronism. The proposed approach is tested on a model of a real large scale power system and results are com...

The proliferation of multimedia-capable mobile devices and ubiquitous high-speed network technologies to deliver multimedia objects is fueling the demand for mobile streaming multimedia. However, the end-user experience is severely constrained by the available battery capacity on the mobile clients. Wireless network interface cards (WNIC) consume significant amounts of power. Since streaming ap...

A substantial quantity of real power loss is accounted for the distribution system due to its radial nature. Efficient and secure operation a system, it necessary minimize active system’s voltage stability index (VSI). Power VSI in can be minimized with optimal integration distributed genera

This article first of all presents an innovative application of Real-Time Simulation Monitoring (RTSM), defined hereafter as “hydro-cloning”, developed by Power Vision Engineering. Second, a successful implementation of hydro-cloning is presented for the 170 MW La Bâtiaz hydroelectric power plant, HPP, owned and operated by Electricité d’Emosson SA, in the Canton of Wallis, Switzerland. The “Hy...
