Battery-Induced Load Hiding and Its Utility Consequences by Aly, Hussein

“…Our findings reveal that the inclusion of battery users in datasets can diminish the quality of conclusions drawn from these data. This can result in a decrease in the Area Under the Curve (AUC) by more than 10% when attempting to profile users within single-occupant and multiple-occupant households. …”

Individual and Synergic Effects of Phosphorus and Gibberellic Acid on Organic Acids Exudation Pattern, Ultra-Structure of Chloroplast and Stress Response Gene Expression in Cu-Stre... by Alatawi, Aishah

“…Results revealed that C. capsularis tolerated up to 200 mg kg−1 Cu concentration without a significant (P < 0.05) decrease in biomass, plant height and root length but further increase in Cu concentration from 400 mg kg−1 exhibited a significant reduction in plant height, root length, stem fresh weight, stem dry weight, plant fresh weight and plant dry weight. …”

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

“…Extensive simulations and numerical results show that the BSCS aggregator with demand-side regulation capacity can increase its income by 59.05% and 36.78% on working and non-working days, respectively. 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.…”

Backfilling Shaft Surround Using Recycled Concrete Waste Material by Brown, John

“…Additionally, mock-up tests are scheduled to confirm the field attributes before implementation on site for shafts in non-traffic areas. Using RCA as shaft backfill is more beneficial from a sustainability perspective as it will decrease the carbon footprint by 70% when compared with using traditional backfill materials. …”

Experimental results and modelling of corrosion-damaged concrete beams strengthened with externally-bonded composites by Elghazy M.

“…The FE models were able to capture the non-linear behavior of the strengthened beams. The interfacial bond stress-slip models at the fabric/matrix and composite/concrete interfaces and the number of composite layers had the most significant impact on the predicted response of the strengthened beams whereas the corrosion level, modeled as a reduction in the steel reinforcement cross-section, showed a slight effect on their performance. …”
