Supply chains often consist of stakeholders with different power levels collaborating with each other in order to meet customer demand. This im-balance of power along the supply chain is a critical factor that affects its short and long-term behavior, as w ...

Research was conducted to measure the effects of the economic crisis on public transport quality, user satisfaction, and transit demand. The survey used in this research extended a research effort that began in 2008; the survey aimed to analyze the variabi ...
Demand response (DR) refers to a set of dynamic demand mechanisms that aim to manage electricity consumption in response to supply-side signals. DR can be used for the purpose of demand regulation (e.g. to maintain voltage and frequency within safety limit ...
A complete dual polarized substrate integrated structure is presented. It comprises planar excitation schemes for both orthogonal TE10 and TE01 modes along with an orthomode transducer (OMT) to combine/split them. The whole structure is compact (only 2 lay ...
Demand response (DR) is a Smart Grid application that aims at managing consumption of electricity in response to supply-side signals. The exchange of sensitive information (i.e., electricity consumption data) between the consumers and the DR provider is ne ...
Peak demand is a major challenge for power utilities across the world. Demand Response (DR) is considered to be effective in addressing peak demand by altering consumption of end consumers, so as to match supply capability. However, an efficient DR system ...
In the 19th Century, hydraulic engineering was typically addressed in two parallel approaches. On one hand, classical theoretical fluid mechanics with the use of analytical approaches to study various flow occurrences. Due to the difficulty and complexity ...
The fish early-life stage (FELS) test (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development [OECD] test guideline 210) is the primary test used internationally to estimate chronic fish toxicity in support of ecological risk assessments and chemical manag ...
A dual-polarized system fully implemented in substrate integrated technology is presented. It comprises an Orthomode Transducer (OMT) with planar excitation schemes for both orthogonal TE10 and TE01 modes and a dual-polarized horn antenna. The whole struct ...
