this paper presents an application of benders decomposition to deal with the complexities in the simultaneous generation expansion planning (gep) and transmission expansion planning (tep). unlike the power system operation fields of study, the power system planning methods are not expected to be fast. however, it is always preferable to speed up computations to provide more analysis options for...

The statistical theory of fluctuations was initiated by ERICSON 1 in 1960 in the appendix of his review article on the statistical model of the compound nucleus. This was at a time when nuclear fluctuations had not yet been observed or recognized as such in scattering experiments. ERICSON pointed out that the excitation functions and angular distributions of nuclear reactions involving a compou...

Expressions for peak and average powers required to produce a given average gradient in an accelerator section are given. They are valid for both lossy and lossless (superconducting) sections, for both traveling wave and standing wave sections, and for pulsed or continuous wave rf input. The expressions are given in terms of structure parameters that are equally applicable to traveling wave or ...
