Reliable Dispatch of Active Distribution Networks via a Two-layer Grid-Aware Model Predictive Control: Theory and Experimental Validation

Mario Paolone, Rahul Kumar Gupta, Antonio Zecchino, Ji Hyun Yi

Dispatching active distribution networks (ADNs) is an energy-intensive application that, if implemented via battery-energy storage systems (BESSs), can require a large capacity of these assets in order to fully balance the uncertainties caused by the stoch ...

Bidirectional bionic limbs: a perspective bridging technology and physiology

Silvestro Micera

Precise control of bionic limbs relies on robust decoding of motor commands from nerves or muscles signals and sensory feedback from artificial limbs to the nervous system by interfacing the afferent nerve pathways. Implantable devices for bidirectional co ...

Understanding Wavelength-Dependent Synergies between Morphology and Photonic Design in TiO2-Based Solar Powered Redox Cells

Giulia Tagliabue, Jiaming Ma, Kiseok Oh

Solar powered redox cells (SPRCs) are promising for large-scale and long-term storage of solar-energy, particularly when coupled with redox flow batteries (RFBs). While efforts have primarily focused on heterostructure engineering, the potential of synergi ...

Dissipative Kerr solitons in a photonic dimer on both sides of exceptional point

Tobias Kippenberg, Kenichi Komagata, Hairun Guo, Mikhail Churaev, Alexey Tikan, Aleksandr Tusnin

Exceptional points are a ubiquitous concept widely present in driven-dissipative coupled systems described by a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian. To date, exceptional points have been extensively examined in the systems supporting only a few optical modes, thereb ...

System and method for high beam quality pulse generation in mode-locked multimode fiber lasers

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Ugur Tegin

A system and method to generate ultrashort high beam quality pulses from spatio- temporally mode-locked multimode fiber laser are described. The invention relies on engineering the intra-cavity pulse propagation in a multimode laser cavity to shape the spa ...

Positioning Left-hand Movement in Violin Performance: A System and User Study of Fingering Pattern Generation

Su Li, Yi-Hsin Jen

Organizing fingerings, i.e., choosing which fingers to press on which positions and strings, is a crucial step for playing the violin. As the violin fingering comprises several components, the mapping of a musical phrase to the corresponding fingering arra ...

Grammar-based generation of bar networks in static equilibrium with bounded bar lengths

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Ioannis Mirtsopoulos

This paper presents a generative approach for the conceptual design of structures, which aims at exploring alternative bar networks in static equilibrium by means of a grammar rule. Operating on incomplete networks of bars in interim static equilibrium, th ...

Assessing the energy potential of modernizing the European hydropower fleet

Anton Schleiss, Elena Vagnoni

About 50% of all hydropower plants (HPPs) worldwide were originally commissioned more than 40 years ago, so that the advanced age of the fleet is a major concern across all continents, and especially in Europe. The modernization of HPPs can generate severa ...
