With the rise in electricity, gas and oil prices persistently high levels of carbon emissions, there is an increasing demand for effective energy management systems, including electrical grids. Recent literature exhibits large potential optimizing behavior such systems towards performance, reducing peak loads exploiting environmentally friendly ways production. However, primary challenge relies...

Electric vehicles are anticipated to be essential components of future energy systems, as they possess the capability assimilate surplus generated by renewable sources. With increasing popularity plug-in hybrid electric (PHEVs), conventional internal combustion engine (ICE)-based expected gradually phased out, thereby decreasing greenhouse gases and reliance on foreign oil. Intensive research d...

The area of smart power grids needs to constantly improve its efficiency and resilience, provide high quality electrical in a resilient grid, while managing faults avoiding failures. Achieving this requires component reliability, adequate maintenance, studied failure occurrence. Correct system operation involves those activities novel methodologies detect, classify, isolate failures model simul...

In recent years rapid development of infrastructures in metro cities compounded with scarcity of useful land and compelled the engineers to improve the properties of soil to bear the load transferred by the infrastructure e.g Buildings, bridges, roadways railways etc. The engineering techniques of ground improvement are removal and replacement, pre-compression, vertical drains, in-situ densific...
