Fairness and Utilitarianism in Allocating Energy to EVs during Power Contingencies Using Modified Division Rules
Download2022-03-25
Hussain, Akhtar, Musilek, Petr
In order to maximize utilitarianism and fairness in allocating energy to electric vehicles (EVs) during outages, this study proposes an optimization method based on modified division rules. The idea of essential energy demand is introduced in this paper to maximize the number of EVs that are...

Fast damping of ultralow frequency waves excited by interplanetary shocks in the magnetosphere
Download2015
Zong, Qui-Gang, Wang, Chengrui, Rankin, Robert
Analysis of Cluster spacecraft data shows that intense ultralow frequency (ULF) waves in the inner magnetosphere can be excited by the impact of interplanetary shocks and solar wind dynamic pressure variations. The observations reveal that such waves can be damped away rapidly in a few tens of...
