Hybrid gas turbine-solid oxide fuel cell power generation has the potential to create a positive economic and environmental impact. Annually, the U.S. spends over $235 billion on electricity, and electric utilities emit 550 million metric tons of carbon. The integration of distributed hybrid generation can reduce these emissions and costs through increased efficiencies. In this paper, a model i...

recently, peer-to-peer (p2p) networks contribute to a large fraction of the internet backbone traffic. consequently, misusing such networks for malicious purposes is a potential side effect. in this review article, we investigate different techniques of misusing p2p overlay networks to launch large-scale next-generation distributed denial of service (ddos) attacks. in particular, we investigate...

presence of distributed generation (dg) in electric distribution systems provides an attractive new alternative in capacity expansion planning of these systems. in this paper a new model is developed for solving simultaneous placement of hv/mv substations and dg units as a static planning tool. this model aims to minimize fixed and variable costs of planning. constraints related to dgs, substat...

Complex power generation scheduling, correlated uncertainties, environmental issues and hybrid energy system modeling have become very important research topics due to rapid growth of large-scale distributed renewable energy system, deregulated electric power markets and responsive demand. The intermittent nature of the primal energy sources (i.e. wind, sun, water) increases uncertainty as well...

This paper presents an approach of model-based diagnosis for the health monitoring of hybrid systems. These systems have both continuous and discrete dynamics. Modified Particle Petri Nets, initially defined in the context of hybrid systems mission monitoring, are extended to estimate the health state of hybrid systems. This formalism takes into account both uncertainties about the system knowl...

nowadays using of new energies in the form of dispersed resources in the worlds is wide spreading. in this article we will design a dispersed production source in the form of a solar/wind hybrid power plant in order to supply the energy of a residential unit according to a sample load pattern. the aim of aforementioned design is to reduce its costs in a period of 20 years. in order to optimi...

Solar and wind energy systems are omnipresent, freely available, environmental friendly, and they are considered as promising power generating sources due to their availability and topological advantages for local power generations. Hybrid solar–wind energy systems, uses two renewable energy sources, allow improving the system efficiency and power reliability and reduce the energy storage requi...

We present a new method that addresses the various deficiencies of the state-ofthe-art non-linear invariant generation methods for hybrid systems. Present approaches for non-linear invariant generation are limited to linear systems, or they relay on non scalable methods which have high complexity. Moreover, for hybrid systems with discrete transitions, differential rules, and local conditions t...
