TECHNOLOGY ADOPTION UNDER EMBODIMENT: A TWO-STAGE OPTIMAL CONTROL APPROACH [PDF]

open access: yesMacroeconomic Dynamics, 2004
We use two-stage optimal control techniques to solve some adoption problems under embodied technical change. We first solve a benchmark problem without learning behavior. At the date of switching, the consumption level is shown to drop, as the relative price of capital goes down (obsolescence).

A Two-Stage Decomposition Approach for AC Optimal Power Flow [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Power Systems, 2021
The alternating current optimal power flow (AC-OPF) problem is critical to power system operations and planning, but it is generally hard to solve due to its nonconvex and large-scale nature. This paper proposes a scalable decomposition approach in which the power network is decomposed into a master network and a number of subnetworks, where each ...
