The operational economics of compressed air energy storage systems under uncertainty
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2013)
A Compressed Air Energy Storage System is a means of storing energy which can then be used when the demand for energy increases. In this system air is compressed in a cavern when power prices are low and this air is used ...
Investigation of PSt-MWCNT concentration on epoxyacrylate photopolymerization and conductivity of polymer films
(Elsevier Science SA, 2013)
Photopolymerization kinetics and conductivity changes of epoxyacrylate composites for various loading modified PSt-MWCNT weight fractions changing from 0.0025 to 0.2 wt.% were evaluated by performing photo differential ...
Superelastic percolation network of polyacrylamide (PAAm)-kappa carrageenan (kappa C) composite
(Springer, 2013)
The elasticity of the polyacrylamide (PAAm)-kappa carrageenan (kappa C) composite was determined as a function of (w/v-%) kappa C content at 40 A degrees C. The gel composites studied contained various percentages (w/v-%) ...
Insights into the binding mode of new N-substituted pyrazoline derivatives to MAO-A: docking and quantum chemical calculations
(SPRINGER WIEN, 2013)
The binding modes of four N-substituted pyrazoline derivatives as novel MAO-A inhibitory agents were investigated using docking and quantum chemical molecular modelling tools.
SPINAL: scalable protein interaction network alignment
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
Motivation: Given protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks of a pair of species a pairwise global alignment corresponds to a one-to-one mapping between their proteins. Based on the presupposition that such a mapping ...
A multi-objective mathematical model for the industrial hazardous waste location-routing problem
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2013)
Industrial hazardous waste management involves the collection transportation treatment recycling and disposal of industrial hazardous materials that pose risk to their surroundings. In this paper a new multiobjective ...
Oxygen Diffusion into Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube Doped Polystrene Latex Films Using Fluorescence Technique
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2013)
This study examines the oxygen diffusion into polystyrene (PS) latex/multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) nanocomposite films (PS/MWNT) consisting of various amounts of MWNT via steady state fluorescence technique (SSF). ...
Investigation of Drying of Poly(N-isoproplacrylamide-co-acrylamide) by Fluorescence Technique
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2013)
The steady-state fluorescence technique was performed on drying of various molar percentages of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co- acrylamide) [poly(NIPA-co-AAc)] to elucidate the mechanism of temperature-induced phase separation ...
Multi-objective Fuel Supply for Coal-fired Power Plants Under Emission Transportation and Operational Constraints
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2013)
Coal-fired power plants need to decrease their generation cost in deregulated power markets so as to be selected dispatched and compete with other cheaper resources. On the other hand coal prices have risen significantly ...
Agent-based Optimization to Estimate Nash Equilibrium in Power Markets
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2013)
In most deregulated power markets firms bid daily into a day-ahead power market. The auction mechanism supply and demand determine the equilibrium at each hour. In this environment firms aim to maximize their revenues by ...
