This paper proposes a novel two-stage Microgrid (MG) scheduling methodology to decide optimal location and size of MG and outputs of dispatchable and intermittent distributed generators (DGs). In the first stage, a system stability index (SSI) representing the performance of the distribution...

In this paper, we study a leader-following consensus problem for a multi-agent system with a varying-velocity leader and time-varying delays. Here, the interaction graph among the followers is switching and balanced. At first, we propose a neighbor-based rule for every agent to track a leader...

Large-scale development of urban land use has led to change of a variety of natural processes and ecological processes, resulting in complex eco-environmental consequences. The objective of this study was to analyze the urban land use and its impact on air environment effect in Chengdu, western...

To combat energy shortage, RIES has become an important research direction in the international energy field. In order to improve energy efficiency and the large-scale consumption of renewable energy, this paper presents the key technologies of RIES, which consists of the coupling relationship,...
