Dispatchable capacity optimization strategy for battery swapping and charging station aggregators to participate in grid operations by Mingze, Zhang

“…Also, the aggregator does not worsen the original power load while meeting the EV swapping demand and can decrease the daily load fluctuations by 0.65% and 12.89%, reduce the peak–valley difference by 5.81% and 7.80%, and increase the load rate by 3.67% and 4.08% in working and non-working day situations through providing the dynamic dispatchable capacity for the grid.…”

The Effect of the Variation of the Modulus of Subgrade Reaction on the Design of Large Shallow Foundations by Al Kaaby Al Zoaby, Hassan

“…The effect of the variability of ks along the same raft on steel reinforcements is investigated while taking into consideration other aspects such as mat rigidity and soil/rock modulus values. With the use of variable coefficient across the mat foundation, a significant decrease in the steel reinforcement is witnessed and an optimized/ more adapted steel distribution is observed.…”
