Wildfire Resilient Unit Commitment under Uncertain Demand
Public safety power shutoffs (PSPS) are a common pre-emptive measure to reduce wildfire risk due to power system equipment. System operators use PSPS to de-energize electric grid elements that are either prone to failure or located in regions at a high risk of experiencing a wildfire. Successful power system operation during PSPS involves coordination across different time scales. Adjustments to generator commitments and transmission line de-energizations occur at day-ahead intervals while adju…

NASCAR Top-10 Power Rankings: Las Vegas
Note: The quotes in this article are fictional. 1. Kyle Larson: Larson dominated throughout the day on Sunday, sweeping the stages and leading 181 laps on his way to the win in the Pennzoil 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. “There wasn’t a car on the track that could challenge me,” Larson said. “You could say I was ‘untouchable,’ which is what advertisers were calling me back in the spring of 2020.” 2. Ryan Blaney: Blaney finished third in the Pennzoil 400. “I don’t know what…

On the two-dimensional Brillouin flow
The Brillouin flow is a rectilinear, sheared electron fluid flow in a crossed electric field (E) and magnetic field (B), in the E x B direction with zero flow velocity and zero electric field at the surface with which the flow is in contact. It is broadly considered as the equilibrium electron flow in high power crossed-field devices including the magnetron and magnetically insulated transmission line oscillators. This paper provides an examination of Brillouin flow in two dimensions, in a cyli…

Long Duration Battery Sizing, Siting, and Operation Under Wildfire Risk Using Progressive Hedging
Battery sizing and siting problems are computationally challenging due to the need to make long-term planning decisions that are cognizant of short-term operational decisions. This paper considers sizing, siting, and operating batteries in a power grid to maximize their benefits, including price arbitrage and load shed mitigation, during both normal operations and periods with high wildfire ignition risk. We formulate a multi-scenario optimization problem for long duration battery storage while…

Efficient 6-dimensional phase space reconstruction from experimental measurements using generative machine learning
Next-generation accelerator concepts which hinge on the precise shaping of beam distributions, demand equally precise diagnostic methods capable of reconstructing beam distributions within 6-dimensional position-momentum spaces. However, the characterization of intricate features within 6-dimensional beam distributions using conventional diagnostic techniques necessitates hundreds of measurements, using many hours of valuable beam time. Novel phase space reconstruction techniques are needed to …
