Beyond Capacity Limitations

Locational Prices in Capacity Subscription Market Considering Transmission Limitations

This study focuses on one of the most effective type of capacity markets named Capacity Subscription (CS) market which is predicted to be widely used in the upcoming smart grids. Despite variant researches done about the mechanism and structure of capacity markets, their performances have been rarely tested in the presence of network constraints. Considering this deficiency, we tried to propose...

Capacity Limitations in Human Cognition

Interference and memory capacity limitations.

Working memory (WM) is thought to have a fixed and limited capacity. However, the origins of these capacity limitations are debated, and generally attributed to active, attentional processes. Here, we show that the existence of interference among items in memory mathematically guarantees fixed and limited capacity limits under very general conditions, irrespective of any processing assumptions....

Beyond the Limitations of API RP-14E Erosional Velocity -A Field Study for Gas Condensate Wells

Fluid velocity has the potential to cause severe erosion damage to oil & gas production infrastructure. In order to avoid or alleviate damage due to erosion, the American Petroleum Institute Recommended Practice (API RP) 14E recommends a threshold fluid velocity for production tubing and pipelines. However, field and laboratory data have proven that the applied empirical constants, known as C-f...

Beyond Accessibility: Lifting Perceptual Limitations for Everyone

Proceedings of the CHI 2017 Workshop on Amplification and Augmentation of Human Perception, May 07, 2017, Denver, CO, USA. Copyright is held by the owner/author(s). Abstract We propose that accessibility research can lay the foundation for technology that can be used to augment the perception of everyone. To show how this can be achieved, we present three case studies of our research in which w...
