Abstract:
This work proposes a fault detection and imputation scheme for a fleet of small-scale photovoltaic (PV) systems, where the captured data includes unlabeled faults. On-site meteorological information, such as solar irradiance, is helpful for monitoring PV systems. However, collecting this type of weather data at every station is not feasible for a fleet owing to the limitation of installation costs. In this study, to monitor a PV fleet efficiently, neighboring PV generation profiles were utilized for fault detection and imputation, as well as solar irradiance. For fault detection from unlabeled

Abstract:
Abstract In model predictive control, the control action is found at each sampling time by solving an online optimization problem. Computationally, this step is very demanding, especially if compared to the evaluation of traditional control laws. This has limited the application of model predictive control to systems with slow dynamics for many years. Recently, several methods have been proposed in the literature which promise a substantial reduction of the computation time by either running the computation in parallel (distributed model predictive control) or exploiting the problem structure

Abstract:
The increasing fleet of VHR optical satellites (e.g. Pléiades, Spot 6/7, WorldView-3) offers new opportunities for the monitoring of surface deformation resulting from gravitational (e.g. glaciers, landslides) or tectonic forces (coseismic slip). Image correlation techniques have been developed and successfully employed in many geoscientific studies to quantify horizontal surface deformation at sub-pixel precision. The analysis of time-series, however, has received less attention in this context and there is still a lack of techniques that fully exploit archived image time-series and the incre

It is possible to observe this inequality when analyzing each region's route network and the total number of flights.

The efficiency of the use of the marine fleet is associated with a reduction in the cost of transportation, the need for which is steadily increasing. A significant share of the total transportation costs is occupied by the costs associated with the operation of ships, therefore, reducing these costs is a reserve for reducing the cost of maritime transportation. The problem of increasing the efficiency of the operation of marine vessels is closely related not only to reducing the cost of it, but also to reducing the time for maintenance and repair of ships.

The world merchant fleet covers about 90 % of all world trade. Over the past decades, there has been a growth trend and currently stands at 93,262 units, or 1.9 billion tons of deadweight. As the number of fleets grows, so does fuel consumption, which in turn increases emissions of harmful substances into the atmosphere. Currently, annual carbon dioxide emissions are about 800 million tons. According to experts, this figure may double by 2060.

AbstractWith the advent of big data, it has become increasingly difficult to obtain high-quality data. Solutions are required to remove undesired outlier samples from massively large datasets. Ship operators rely on high-frequency in-service datasets recorded onboard the ships for monitoring the performance of their fleet. The large in-service datasets are known to be highly unbalanced, making it difficult to adopt ordinary outlier detection techniques, as they would also result in the removal of rare but quite valuable data samples.

Offshore wind structures are exposed to a harsh marine environment and are subject to deterioration mechanisms throughout their operational lifetime. Even if the deterioration evolution of structural elements can be estimated through physics-based deterioration models, the uncertainties involved in the process hurdle the selection of lifecycle management decisions, e.g., lifetime extension. In this scenario, the collection of relevant information through an efficient monitoring system enables the reduction of uncertainties, ultimately driving more optimal lifecycle decisions.

Most existing studies focus on the reduction of server-oriented delay, i.e., the overall time taken by MCs (servers) to carry out sensor charging and travel inside the sensing field.
