This paper proposes a risk-averse strategy for resilience improvement multiyear planning distribution networks against hurricanes, considering the uncertainty of load demand and wind power generation. For enhancement, DG placement line hardening are regarded as measures, rescheduling, topology reconfiguration, microgrid forming, priority-based curtailment considered operational measures. The mo...

This paper describes the application of an Intelligent Genetic Design Tool (IGDT) in the design of architectural, structural elements. As a computer design aid an IGDT is innovative in its intelligent interaction with the designer. By always submitting multiple solutions for review by the designer, it is less likely to cause design fixation than other optimization techniques, and allows the use...

Power network operators have recently faced new challenges due to an increase in the penetration of non-dispatchable renewable energy sources power grids. Incorporating emerging flexible resources like electric vehicle parking lots (EVPLs) and demand response programs (DRPs) into systems, could be a good solution deal with inherent uncertainties imposed by these grid. EVPLs can improve system o...

Abstract Despite gaming disorder now being diagnosable by the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) as a new mental due to addictive behaviors, little is known about concrete reasons for which people seek treatment their videogame play. As current literature mainly based on children and adolescents, there strong need better understanding adult treatment-seekers in particular. This p...

Nowadays, the high penetration of renewable energy sources (RESs) with non-uniformly distributed patterns has created unprecedented challenges for regional power systems to maintain system flexibility and reliability. These technical obligate operators curtail part produced at various scheduling intervals. Motivated by these challenges, grid-connected hubs are seen as a way forward boost flexib...
