In this paper, we present a work based on the computational load distribution among the homogeneous nodes and the Hub/Sink of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). The main contribution of the paper is an early decision support framework helping WSN designers to take decisions about computational load distribution for those WSNs where power consumption is a key issue (when we refer to "framework" in...

This paper presents a hybrid electric scooter model developed and simulated using Matlab/Simulink. This hybrid scooter modeled has a parallel hybrid structure. The main propulsion units consist of a two stroke internal combustion engine and a hub motor attached to the front wheel of the scooter. The methodology used to optimize the energy and fuel consumption of the hybrid electric scooter is t...

This paper presents a stochastic bi-objective model to reduce the operation cost and carbon emission of smart railway station along with dependent commercial buildings, according multi-energy hub system's structure. The proposed energy system (EHS) includes power, heating, cooling subenergy hub. recovered obtained from regenerative braking (RB) during train deceleration is utilized supply load ...

The rapid growth of urban areas and concerns over climate change make it vital to improve the energy sustainability cities. Understanding complex interactions within different sectors (sectoral) localities (spatial) cities plays a crucial role in improving efficiency sustainability, which is extremely challenging due morphology. State-of-the-art concepts do not facilitate detailed consideration...

This paper examines the time series econometric relationship between the Henry Hub natural gas price and the West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil price. Typically, this relationship has been approached using simple correlations and deterministic trends. When data have unit roots as in this case, such analysis is faulty and subject to spurious results. We find a cointegrating relationship rel...

This article deals with the estimation of the energy demand for residential buildings in the city of Vienna. As first step, the energy demand for space heating is computed on the basis of the guidelines issued by the Austrian Institute of Construction Engineering and starting from a CityGML-based semantic 3D city model which acts as information hub containing integrated and harmonised spatial a...
