A-priori multi-objective optimization for the short-term dispatch of distributed energy resources by G. Carpinelli, A.R. Di Fazio, S. Perna, A. Russo, M. Russo

“…In order to exploit the flexibility provided by distributed energy resources (DERs), a multi-objective optimization (MOO) approach is proposed to minimize the bus voltage deviations, the network losses, and the current security index. Effective linear power flow equations are included into both the objective functions and the inequality constraints of the MOO model, thus yielding benefits in terms of reduced model dimension and computational complexity. …”

The causes of the causes: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander oral health and the neoliberalisation of Australia’s dental health system by Brianna Poirier, Gustavo Soares, Madison Cachagee, Emma Flannagan, Joanne Hedges, Lisa Jamieson

“…Oral disease is a direct reflection of societal disadvantage and is arguably a more visible representation of one’s social position than any other trait. The disparities in oral health outcomes established by colonisation are perpetuated and widened by neoliberalism in Australia operate through insidious pathways of social marginalisation. …”

Fuzzy Constrained Predictive Optimal Control of High Speed Train with Actuator Dynamics by Xi Wang, Yan Zhao, Tao Tang

“…The goal of this study is to design a state feedback control law at each decision step to enhance safety, comfort, and energy efficiency of high speed train subject to safety constraints on the control input. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, the problem of optimizing an upper bound on the cruise control cost function subject to input constraints is reduced to a convex optimization problem involving linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). …”
