Mitigation of Voltage and Frequency Excursions in Low-Inertia Microgrids

Drazen Dujic

Power systems proliferated by distributed generation sources are becoming increasingly prone to frequency and voltage disturbances. These problems are exacerbated in microgrids since they have fewer intrinsic disturbance-rejecting measures and features. To ...

Enabling renewable Europe through optimal design and operation

Alessio Santecchia

Europe is currently transitioning from fossil energy sources to renewable generation of electric power. Although fundamental to reach net-zero targets, intermittent renewables are disrupting conventional methods used in operational planning and design of p ...

The simulation and classification of contact clusters between rough surfaces

Shijun Yin

The contact area of rough surfaces has a great influence on many mechanical process in tribology. In this report, we used the simulation method to study the contact area between two rough surfaces and its evolution when sliding. We generated artificial sel ...

Application of Time Series Methods on Long-Term Structural Monitoring Data for Fatigue Analysis

Eugen Brühwiler, Bartlomiej Wojciech Sawicki, Morteza Ahmadivala

Structural health monitoring (SHM) can be employed to reduce uncertainties in different aspects of structural analysis such as: load modeling, crack development, corrosion rates, etc. Fatigue is one of the main degradation processes of structures that caus ...

Battery Storage System Optimal Exploitation Through Physics-Based Model Predictive Control

Mario Paolone, Fabrizio Sossan, Dimitri Torregrossa, Emil Namor

Traditionally, the safe operation of a battery energy storage system (BESS) is achieved by imposing conservative constraints on its DC bus current and voltage. By using a computationally efficient single particle model (SPM), we propose to replace these co ...

A non-stationary stochastic ensemble generator for radar rainfall fields based on the short-space Fourier transform

Nikola Besic, Urs Martin Germann, Daniele Nerini

In this paper we present a non-stationary stochastic generator for radar rainfall fields based on the short-space Fourier transform (SSFT). The statistical properties of rainfall fields often exhibit significant spatial heterogeneity due to variability in ...

Aggregation of Power Capabilities of Heterogeneous Resources for Real-Time Control of Power Grids

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Mario Paolone, Lorenzo Enrique Reyes Chamorro, Wajeb Saab, Andrey Bernstein

Aggregation of electric resources is a fundamental function for the operation of power grids at different time scales. In the context of a recently proposed framework for the real-time control of microgrids with explicit power setpoints, we define and form ...
