Guest Editorial: Operational and structural resilience of power grids with high penetration of renewables

The switch to renewable power generation is promoted aggressively by government policies, growing investments, consumer preferences, and many other factors. However, high renewable penetration can impose significant challenges to designing and employing measures that enhance power grid resilience. Resilience has been posed as a requirement of...

A numerical Bayesian-calibrated characterization method for multiscale prepreg preforming simulations with tension-shear coupling

Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRPs) are attracting growing attention in industry because of their enhanced properties. Preforming of thermoset carbon fiber prepregs is one of the most common production techniques of CFRPs. To simulate preforming, several computational methods have been developed. Most of these methods, however, obtain...
