Abstract:
Fluctuations in demand require diverse considerations with respect to planned capacity. At peak periods, decreased capacity may result in supply shortages and   thus in lower revenues and unachievable profits.  In contrast, smaller capacity at off-peak periods reduces the substantial costs of large and unutilized capacity.  
 
 The questions to be addressed ask (i) what the optimal pricing policies are at peak and off-peak periods; (ii) what the optimal capacity is for profit maximization of the supplier; and furthermore (iii) how the shif

Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the positional mean peak running periods during a field hockey match using a moving average method. The secondary aim was to investigate how the peak periods changed between quarters and playing positions. The moving average method was used to analyse the data because of the nature of field hockey, which has natural fluctuations of high and low intensity periods of play. The time periods included periods from 1 to 10 minutes. The level of significance for results was set at p ≤ 0.05. The study found that forwards had a peak running intensity of

Urban sprawl remains as a remnant of previous Apartheid legacy policies and has a daily impact on the majority of South African commuters: large, densely populated residential areas (i.e. informal settlements) are generally located on the periphery of towns or cities, far away from areas of employment. As a result, a large number of commuters have to travel great distances to-and from work on a daily basis, and those making use of private vehicles have to accept very high levels of congestion for a large part of their journey.

Abstract:
An organism’s circadian clock exists as a self-regulating oscillator that can synchronize with its surroundings. This manifests as physiological and behavioral output which can anticipate changes in environment. These rhythms may even persist internally and are known to oscillate at a period (tau) of around 24 hours even in the absence of external cues. In the laboratory, such rhythmic output is known as a free-running period (FRP). Given that circadian rhythms are distributed in a number of taxa as well as their tendency to oscillate along with the solar day, it has been suggested that they r

Abstract:
Clock scheduling is studied to improve the performance of synchronous sequential circuits. The performance improvement covers the optimization of the clock frequency and the peak power consumption, separately. For clock period minimization, cycle stealing method is utilized, in which the redundant cycle time of fast combinational logic is transferred to slower logic by proper clock skew adjustment of registers. The clock scheduling system determines the minimum clock period that a synchronous sequential circuit can operate without hazards. The timing of each register is adjusted for operation

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter assesses the techno-economic characteristics of demand side management (DSM) in comparison with other flexibility options (e.g., energy storages) in order to estimate its flexibility and benefit for the system integration of renewable energy sources (RES). The results show that load shedding and load shifting are less flexible than other flexibility options and can therefore only balance short-term fluctuations. In contrast, load increase is more flexible and can integrate excess feed-in from RES also over longer periods. Analysis about the impact of DSM on other flexibility options show, that DSM lowers utilization and contribution margin of peak load plants and energy storages, while it increases both for baseload power plants. More electricity is consumed nationally due to DSM as it decreases imports and exports.

Abstract:
Abstract When studying peaks in electricity demand, we may be interested in understanding the risk of a certain large level for demand being exceeded. For example, there is potential interest in finding the probability that the electricity demand of a business or household exceeds the contractual limit. An alternative, yet in principle equivalent way, involves assessment of maximal needs for electricity over a certain period of time, like a day, a week or a season within a year. This would stem from the potential interested in quantifying the largest electricity consumption for a substation, household or business.

Abstract:
Streamflow influences the distribution and organization of high water marks along rivers and streams in a landscape. The federal definition of ordinary high water mark (OHWM) is defined by physical and vegetative field indicators that are used to identify inundation extents of ordinary high water levels without any reference to the relationship between streamflow and regulatory definition. Streamflow is the amount, or volume, of water that moves through a stream per unit time. This study explores regional characteristics and relationships between field-delineated OHWMs and frequency-magnitude

Abstract:
Since emerging in eastern Libya in 2014, ISIS laid claim to wilayat within Libya’s three regional provinces—Tripolitania, Barqa, and Fezzan—moving fast to establish a quasi-state in the coastal city of Sirte and amassing just a few thousand fighters at its peak strength. Yet, just as ISIS core’s territorial hold in Syria and Iraq withered, its strength in Libya also soon diminished. Sustained domestic and international counterterrorism efforts have severely depleted ISIS in Libya’s (ISIS-L) numbers, operational capacity, and opportunity for safe haven. However, while weakened, ISIS-L’s surviva

The US Army Corps of Engineers, Galveston District, is executing the Sabine Pass to Galveston Bay Coastal Storm Risk Management (CSRM) project for Brazoria, Jefferson, and Orange Counties regions. The project is currently in the Pre-construction, Engineering, and Design phase. This report documents coastal storm water level and wave hazards for the Port Arthur CSRM structures. Coastal storm water level (SWL) and wave loading and overtopping are quantified using high-fidelity hydrodynamic modeling and stochastic simulations.
