Coordinated Voltage and Reactive Power Control for Renewable Dominant Smart Distribution Systems
Driven by their economic and environmental advantages, smart grids promote the deployment of active components, including renewable energy sources (RESs), energy storage systems (ESSs), and electric vehicles (EVs), for sustainability and environmental benefits. As a result of smart grid technologies and the amount of data collected by smart meters, better operation and control schemes can be developed to allow for cleaner energy with high efficiency, and without breaching network operating constraints. Power distribution networks may face some operational and control challenges as the integration of intermittent energy sources (wind and PV power systems) increases. Some of these challenges i...

Medicinal Plants and Environmental Challenges
This book sheds new light on the role of various environmental factors in regulating the metabolic adaptation of medicinal and aromatic plants. Many of the chapters present cutting-edge findings on the contamination of medicinal plants through horizontal transfer, as well as nanomaterials and the biosynthesis of pharmacologically active compounds. In addition, the book highlights the impacts of environmental factors (e.g., high and low temperature, climate change, global warming, UV irradiation, intense sunlight and shade, ozone, carbon dioxide, drought, salinity, nutrient deficiency, agrochemicals, waste, heavy metals, nanomaterials, weeds, pests and pathogen infections) on medicinal and ar...
Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming
Many engineering, operations, and scientific applications include a mixture of discrete and continuous decision variables and nonlinear relationships involving the decision variables that have a pronounced effect on the set of feasible and optimal solutions. Mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problems combine the numerical difficulties of handling nonlinear functions with the challenge of optimizing in the context of nonconvex functions and discrete variables. MINLP is one of the most flexible modeling paradigms available for optimization; but because its scope is so broad, in the most general cases it is hopelessly intractable. Nonetheless, an expanding body of researchers and practitioners — including chemical engineers, operations researchers, industrial engineers, mechanical engineers, economists, statisticians, computer scientists, operations managers, and mathematical programmers — are interested in solving large-scale MINLP instances.
Marvels of Artificial and Computational Intelligence in Life Sciences
Marvels of Artificial and Computational Intelligence in Life Sciences is a primer for scholars and students who are interested in the applications of artificial intelligence (AI and computational intelligence (CI) in life sciences and other industries. The book consists of 16 chapters (9 of which focus on AI and 7 which showcase the benefits of CI approaches to solve specific problems). Chapters are edited by subject experts who describe the roles and applications of AI and CI in different parts of our lives in a concise and lucid manner. The book covers the following key themes: AI Revolution in Healthcare and Drug Discovery: AI's Impact on Biology and Energy Management AI and CI in Physical Sciences and Predictive Modeling Computational Biology The editors have compiled a good blend of topics in applied science and engineering to give readers a clear understanding of the multidisciplinary nature of the two facets of computing. Each chapter includes references for advanced readers.
Multi-objective Group Decision Making
This book proposes a set of models to describe fuzzy multi-objective decision making (MODM), fuzzy multi-criteria decision making (MCDM), fuzzy group decision making (GDM) and fuzzy multi-objective group decision-making problems, respectively. It also gives a set of related methods (including algorithms) to solve these problems. One distinguishing feature of this book is that it provides two decision support systems software for readers to apply these proposed methods. A set of real-world applications and some new directions in this area are then described to further instruct readers how to use these methods and software in their practice.
Advances in Computer Science for Engineering and Education III
This book comprises high-quality refereed research papers presented at the Third International Conference on Computer Science, Engineering and Education Applications (ICCSEEA2020), held in Kyiv, Ukraine, on 21–22 January 2020, organized jointly by National Technical University of Ukraine “Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute”, National Aviation University, and the International Research Association of Modern Education and Computer Science. The topics discussed in the book include state-of-the-art papers in computer science, artificial intelligence, engineering techniques, genetic coding systems, deep learning with its medical applications, and knowledge representation with its applications in education. It is an excellent source of references for researchers, graduate students, engineers, management practitioners, and undergraduate students interested in computer science and their applications in engineering and education.
The Legend of the Dream Giants
An orphaned giant named Berg is in search of just one person he can call friend. When he was very young, Berg's mother hid him in a cave and led an angry mob of villagers away, sacrificing her own life to protect her son. In all the years since, Berg has lived alone, the only reminders of his family are his mother's satchel and his recurring dreams of a white bear who shares a magical sand from a fallen star. When the white bear touches Berg with the star-blue sand, he feels safe and happy in his dreams. Sometimes, when he feels lonely, he will risk entering a village to trade a smooth river rock or a feather for food. He's really searching for kindness, companionship, and, maybe one day, so...
