Abstract:
The past several decades have witnessed a remarkable increase in the number of amicus curiae briefs filed at the U.S. Supreme Court. While scholars debate the effectiveness of amicus curiae briefs, they generally agree on the effectiveness of briefs filed by executive attorneys. A plethora of studies address the amicus curiae brief activity of the solicitor general, but relatively few examine state attorneys general. State attorneys general are the legal representatives of the states and have become increasingly successful as amici since the early 1980s. I explore state attorney general am

State and local governments forfeit over $80 billion in tax revenue each year in order to incentivize businesses to expand operations and create jobs in, relocate to, or refrain from leaving their states. The use of tax incentives has expanded massively during recent decades to include all states and a range of industries. Targeted tax incentives are proven to be an inefficient method of promoting economic growth and job creation, because of the negative impact of public spending cuts that offset the decline in revenue.

Abstract:
When the primary measurement sensor is passive in nature--by which we mean that it does not directly measure range or range rate--there are well-documented challenges for target state estimation. Most estimation schemes rely on variations of the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF), which, in certain situations, suffer from divergence and/or covariance collapse. For this and other reasons, we believe that the Kalman filter is fundamentally ill-suited to the problems that are inherent in target state estimation using passive sensors. As an alternative, we propose a bounded-error (or set-membership)

Abstract:
Distributed resources (DR), such as residential small wind turbines and solar cells, generate electrical energy in the form of a direct current (DC). An inverter is needed to convert this DC power into an alternating current (AC) for regular usage. The main purpose of this dissertation was to determine the performance of the inverter under steady-state and transient-state conditions, and then develop a power flow model that would be useful for power system operators and planners to determine how much high penetration of distributed photovoltaic energy would affect their power systems.
