Large-Scale Setpoint Tracking Controller for Co-regulation of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations: Coordinating Charging with Energy Market Dynamics

This research explores the feasibility of building a large-scale setpoint tracking controller for the co-regulation of Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations, aiming to coordinate charging with energy market dynamics and minimize the error between a power setpoint and the aggregated consumption of charging stations while capitalizing on...

Modelling Second Order Effects of Changes in Civil Engineering Projects

One of the most common hurdles especially in large infrastructure projects is scope change. Scope changes negatively affect time, quality and usually lead to cost overruns due to underestimating the change order impacts on the project. There are two main categories through which the impacts could be quantified: the first and second order effects...
