Network-constrained market clearing procedures in pool-based electricity markets of hydropower systems have traditionally neglected the constraints associated with physical and operating aspects of hydroelectric generation ...

Recent studies on the impacts of forest fragmentation on understory insectivorous birds in the Neotropics have highlighted that even narrow linear clearings, such as roads, can affect the movements of this guild of birds. ...

In the realm of solar forecasting, it is common to use a clear sky model output to deseasonalise the solar irradiance time series needed to build the forecasting models. However, most of these clear sky models require the ...

Learning effects have been considered in operations management problems since the early twentieth century [1]. The learning effect has a direct influence on production scheduling problems, since it modifies the use of ...

Mixed integer linear programming is one of the main approaches used to solve unit commitment problems. Due to the computational complexity of unit commitment problems, several researches remark the benefits of using less ...

Nonlinear structures are frequent in structural dynamics, specially considering screwed components, with joints, clearance or flexible components presenting large displacements. In this sense the monitoring of systems based ...
