Abstract:
A stochastic dynamic programming model (called P.B.S.D.P.) based on the consideration of peak discharge and time between peaks as two stochastic variables has been used to model and to solve a reservoir operation problem. This conceptualization of the physical reality allows to solve, in this order, the tactical and strategic operation of surface reservoirs. This P.B.S.D.P. model has been applied to the Sau reservoir in the Northeastern corner of Spain. The results showed a significant improvement over the currently used operation procedure, yielding values of yearly average electricity produc

In the present electrical market there is an increasing penetration of intermittent energy sources.

The wear of a hydropower unit is generally at a minimum when operated close to best efficiency and increases when operating at higher or lower set points.

Abstract:
With the increasing amount of renewable and difficult-to-forecast generation units, Transmission System Operators (TSO) face new challenges to operate the grid properly. The deterministic N-1 criterion is currently used to assess grid reliability. This criterion states that the loss of an active component should not trigger the violation of operational constraints. It has been chosen in the conventional context of electricity in which large units produced power transmitted to the consumer through the transmission and the distribution systems. The renewable energy sources, the distributed gener

Abstract:
District heating systems are projected to face significant new challenges in terms of increasing requirements in system dynamics handling, disturbance rejection and system efficiency. Therefore, a systematic approach to network development is required. Complexity is a defining characteristic of district heating systems. Piping network includes hundreds of consumers and usually dozens of loops are present in the pipe network. Exact modeling of such a complex system is a difficult task and model-based control approaches are only starting to emerge. During high demand separate supplementary power

Abstract:
In recent times, with regards to rural water supplies in Victoria and most other parts of Australia, emphasis is placed more on efficient use of existing water resources than on new resource developments. This is especially true for irrigation systems. This emphasis is mainly due to limited funds available for construction works, lack of suitable hydrologic sites, and the spirited and justifiable lobbying of enviromnental groups against construction of new projects. Hence to meet the increased water demands, efficient operation of existing irrigation systems is required. Recently with the hig

Abstract:
Distribution centres in the supply chain are an intermediate point for fast and cost-effective distribution. For a supply chain to be efficient and effective, organisations have to use dynamic distribution centres. Cross-docking as a JIT and lean concept has attracted the attention of many researchers and practitioners. Many companies implement cross-docking because this approach helps companies reduce their cost via reducing inventory. Operations in cross-dock centres (CDCs) are influenced by the dynamic nature of the business environment, which is full of uncertainties such as unknown arriv

Abstract:
The present work examines the potential impact of changes in climatic conditions on the long-term functioning of nuclear power plants. Nuclear power plants are potentially susceptible to changes both in acute risks, such as severe storm events, and chronic risks, such as detrimental changes in the thermodynamics of plant operation. Extending plant lifetimes well beyond the lengths of operation for which they were originally designed suggests the necessity of studying the impacts such changes might have. Potential threats are examined in light of earlier work performed by Business Continuity Co
