We provide conditions under which seriality is preserved during an update in the BMS framework. We consider not only whether the entire updated model is serial but also whether its generated submodels are serial. We also introduce the notion of crazy formulas which are formulas such that after being publicly announced at least one of the agents’ beliefs become inconsistent.

ENVS135 American Food This course investigates topics in the history of food production from the colonial period to the present, with emphasis on the American contribution to the development of world food systems and cultures of consumption. Topics to be addressed include the production of agricultural commodities, development of national markets, mass production of food, industrialization of a...

In this article we describe the OAUC’s participation in the CLEF 2016 SBS Search Suggestion track. We are trying to represent appeal elements, used in readers’ advisory theory and practice, to see if they can be used in an automatic retrieval and recommendation context. We are still working with the pace appeal element, used in fiction to capture how quickly the buildup of the story or the plot...

Battery management systems (BMSs) are used in many battery-operated industrial and commercial systems to make the battery operation more efficient and the estimation of battery state nondestructive. The existing BMS techniques are examined in this paper and a new design methodology for a generalized reliable BMS is proposed. The main advantage of the proposed BMS compared to the existing system...

Modeling of the battery for 42V PowerNet system is presented. For the Battery Management System (BMS) algorithm in a Mild hybrid vehicle, accuracy in the battery model is crucial. The battery model is needed for the BMS algorithm as well as for the system computer simulation for the energy management. The battery model was composed of impedance elements and each element of the model is estimate...

Range anxiety and battery cycle life are two major factors which restrict the development of electric vehicles. Battery degradation can be reduced by adding supercapacitors to create a Hybrid Energy Storage System. This paper proposes a systematic approach to configure the hybrid energy storage system and quantifies the battery degradation for electric vehicles when using supercapacitors. A con...

Battery storage system is emerging as an essential component of hybrid power system based on renewable energy resources such as solar and wind in order to make these sources dispatchable. Accurate modeling of battery storage system is essential in order to ensure optimal planning of hybrid power systems incorporating battery storage. Majority of the system planning studies involving battery sto...
