This paper presents a sparse Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) design for damping oscillations in wide-area power system networks. We first show how, depending on the severity and location of a fault, different sets of ...

This paper presents an integrated bottom-up approach aimed at helping those dealing with strategical analysis of installation of Building Integrated Photo Voltaic (BIPV) to estimate the electricity production potential ...

In this paper a distributed Model Predictive Control design is presented for inter-area oscillation damping in power systems under two critical cyber–physical constraints — namely, communication constraints that lead to ...

In this chapter, we considered a building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) system, which was installed at Yasar University in Izmir, Turkey, within the framework of an EU/FP7-funded project and has been successfully operated ...

Electromechanical oscillations in power systems have been observed ever since synchronous generators were interconnected to provide reliability and higher generation capacity, and they have become a severe threat for the ...

Finite element models (FEMs) are extensively used in the design optimization of utility scale steam turbines. As an example, by simulating multiple startup scenarios of steam power plants, engineers can obtain turbine ...

This paper presents an online distributed control design for suppressing inter-area oscillations in large power systems under structural constraints posed on the underlying communication network. The presence of multiple ...

In this study, for a near-room-temperature magnetic cooling system, a decoupled multi-physics numerical approach (Magnetism, Fluid Flow, and Heat Transfer) is developed using a commercial CFD solver, ANSYS-FLUENT, as a ...

In this study, performance of a radiant heating-cooling via air source heat pump was investigated. This study is part of a project funded by European Union's FP7 for research, technological development and demonstration. ...

In this study, performance of a near room temperature magnetic cooling system was investigated experimentally in terms of temperature span. The current setup has a permanent magnet pairs (0.7 Tesla), a magnetocaloric ...
