The steady growth in the utilisation of wind power for electricity generation has led to increased interest in methods for synthetically generating wind speeds that are able to more accurately determine the site potential.

The availability of hourly wind speed data is becoming increasingly important for ensuring the proper design of wind energy conversion systems. For many sites, measured series of such high resolution are incomplete or entirely lacking; hence the need for a model for synthesizing wind speed data.

In a high wind penetration scenario in electricity production, the availability of models for synthetically generating hourly wind speed data becomes increasingly important for both sizing and modeling integrated renewable systems. A methodology for generating hourly wind speed time series is...

Estimating the spatial organization of cities yields insights into interactions over a spatial structure, and thus creating efficient subcenters with more balanced distribution of travel patterns over urban agglomerations can be exercised via models which support an evidence-based spatial...

Following the framework in Oliva et al. 1987, GEMCAT II implements a flexible method to test catastrophe models containing multivariate (i.e., latent) variables while allowing for a priori variable specifications. The system uses an efficient hybrid minimization algorithm combining the Downhill...

The current study contributes to the already substantial scholarly literature on telecommuting by estimating a joint model of three dimensions—option, choice and frequency of telecommuting. In doing so, we focus on workers who are not self-employed workers and who have a primary work place...
