Aggregating distributed energy resources for grid flexibility services: A distributed game theoretic approach

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract We propose a hierarchical energy management scheme for aggregating Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) for grid flexibility services. To prevent a direct participation of numerous prosumers in the wholesale electricity market, aggregators, as self‐interest agents in our scheme, incentivize prosumers to provide flexibility. We firstly model the

Discursive Governance and Development Goals: A Performative Theory of Corporate Purpose in Sustainability Discourse

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study theorises and empirically tests performative purpose alignment theory (PPAT), which conceptualises corporate purpose as a performative artefact materialised through discursive and multimodal signals. To operationalise this, we introduced the SDG–Purpose Alignment Index (SPAI), a computational construct that quantifies the thematic ...

Performance change detection and recovery in inferential control loops

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract In most industrial environments, soft sensors are crucial for estimating variables that are hard to measure. It is critical that these variables be estimated quickly and accurately because they are closely linked to plant safety and profit. Therefore, performance drift in the soft sensors cannot be ignored.

Extended admissibility

open access: yesTheoretical Computer Science, 2002
We give a new definition of admissible representations which allows to handle also non countably-based topological spaces in the framework of Type-2 Theory of Effectivity. We prove that admissible representations \(\delta_{X},\delta_{Y}\) of topological spaces \(X,Y\) have the desirable property that every partial function \(f\subseteq X\rightarrow Y\)

Harnessing machine learning and optimization for informed chemical engineering decisions: A styrene reactor analysis

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
This study shows that integrating multiple machine learning models with optimization and decision‐making improves chemical process design, and that a consensus‐based strategy across models provides more robust and reliable operating recommendations than any single model, especially under limited or noisy data conditions.

La Impugnación de la Competencia en Asuntos Contenciosos ante la Corte Internacional de Justicia

open access: yesACDI: Anuario Colombiano de Derecho Internacional, 2008
In this comment the different procedures available to a State whichis unwilling to appear before the International Court of Justice are discussed. Challenges to the Court’s jurisdiction or the admissibility of the application are explained, including the

A Geometric Characterization of Steady Laminar Flow

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study the steady states of the Euler equations on the periodic channel or annulus. We show that if these flows are laminar (layered by closed non‐contractible streamlines which foliate the domain), then they must be either parallel or circular flows.

Modelling Sustainability Performance in Manufacturing Companies

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nowadays, organisations need to operate with economic, social and environmental goals in mind. Indices objectively quantify such goals; hence, an organisation can develop and compare policies based on future index values. We propose a system dynamics‐based model of a manufacturing company that frames its operations in terms of a set of easily ...

Admissibility of Linear Predictors of Finite Population Parameters under Reflected Normal Loss Function [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2016
One of the most important prediction problems in finite population is the prediction of a linear function of characteristic values of a finite population.

Upper bound limit analysis of coral reef limestone cavern roof stability incorporating a tension‐shear failure mechanism with tensile‐strength cut‐off

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
For the roof of coral reef limestone caverns, a novel tension‐shear composite failure mechanism was developed. The most critical tensile crack model was identified using a hybrid optimization algorithm, and the stability of the cavern roof was analyzed accordingly.
