As a small energy system, microgrid plays an important role in utilizing distributed resources, improving traditional networks, and building intelligent integrated systems. However, management is always challenging optimization problem due to different factors. Meta-heuristics have been widely used solve complex problems many fields, including there lack of systematic summary the application me...

this paper discusses some of the fundamental considerations when managing mining slopes. the goal of management is to reduce all components that contribute to the geotechnical risk and by doing so reduce the risk to as low as reasonably achievable. the techniques and procedures suggested are not exhaustive; they represent a snapshot of some of the practical techniques the author has found usefu...
