This paper investigates the stability of switched systems with time-varying delay and all unstable subsystems. According to the stable convex combination, we design a state-dependent switching rule. By employing Wirtinger integral inequality and Leibniz-Newton formula, the stability results of nonlinear delayed switched systems whose nonlinear terms satisfy Lipschitz condition under the designed state-dependent switching rule are established for different assumptions on time delay. Moreover,some new stability results for linear delayed switched systems are also presented. The effectiveness of the proposed results is validated by three typical numerical examples.
A novel topological-data-analytical (TDA) method is proposed to distinguish, from noise, small holes surrounded by high-density regions of a probability density function. The proposed method is robust against additive...

In this paper, we present a novel kinetic growth model for the micro-organism Methytococcus capsutatus (Bath) that couples growth and pH. We apply growth kinetics in a model for single-cell protein production in a laboratory scale continuous stirred tank reactor inspired by a physical laboratory fermentor. The model contains a set of differential algebraic equations describing growth and pH-dynamics in the system. We present a method of simulation that ensures non-negativity in the state and algebraic variables. Additionally, we introduce linear scaling of the algebraic equations and variables for numerical stability in Newton’s method. Finally, we conduct a numerical experiment of economic optimal control for single-cell protein production in the laboratory-scale reactor. The numerical experiment shows non-trivial input profiles for biomass growth and pH tracking.
We provide a recursive description of all decompositions of the positive roots R+ of a quotient root system R into disjoint unions of inversion sets. Our description is type-independent and generalizes the analogous r...

The increasing adoption of photovoltaic (PV) modules for renewable energy generation highlights the importance of maintaining their performance and efficiency. Anomalies in PV modules can lead to energy losses and reduced system reliability. Classical approaches for detecting PV module anomalies include current-voltage (IV) curve analysis, visual inspection, infrared thermography, and electroluminescence imaging. However, these methods often require employees, manual intervention, and may lack scalability and *** this study, we explore unsupervised machine learning techniques for detecting anomalies in PV modules using data from a PV plant, aiming to develop more efficient and accurate solutions compared to classical approaches. We evaluate four unsupervised machine learning algorithms—Isolation Forest, Local Outlier Factor (LOF), K-Means and DBSCAN, and compare their effectiveness based on metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 *** findings reveal that the K-Means and DBSCAN algorithms, when properly tuned, demonstrate superior performance in detecting anomalies, while other algorithms show promise with further optimization. This study provides insights into the potential of unsupervised machine learning algorithms as an alternative to classical approaches for anomaly detection in PV modules, contributing to the development of efficient, accurate, and scalable anomaly detection systems in the solar energy sector and enhancing PV system performance and reliability.

Electrifying parking lots (PLs) is becoming increasingly challenging as the number of electric vehicle (EV) chargers operating within PLs increases, putting a strain on the internal electricity grid. Reinforcing the local grid can be an expensive solution. Therefore, an alternative approach is to design a mechanism that optimizes the distribution of incoming EVs along the PL infrastructure, minimizing operating costs for the PL owner and the charging costs for EV users. This paper proposes a user-aware pricing mechanism for EV charging in PLs based on locational marginal prices (LMPs), which consists of a base tariff and a location-dependent tariff. A mixed-integer second-order programming model is developed to determine the optimal charging spot for each EV upon arrival at the PL. Results show that the proposed LMP-based allocation mechanism distributes the strain more evenly throughout the local grid, increasing the EV hosting capacity of the PL, while minimizing charging costs for users. Compared to a random allocation approach, the proposed mechanism resulted in 30.9% less energy not served and 17.5% lower charging costs.
