Diab, I. (author), Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Bauer, P. (author)In-Motion-Charging (IMC) buses are destined to become a key player in sustainable urban transport as they combine the advantages of both trolleybuses (overhead supply mode) and e-buses (on-board battery mode). Defining the route ratio of these two modes of operation is a critical task in order to ensure that the IMC battery can complete a...conference paper 2022

Diab, I. (author), Scheurwater, Bram (author), Saffirio, Alice (author), Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Bauer, P. (author)Reducing the environmental impact of transportation requires the successful integration of renewable energy sources into the electrical transportation networks. However, the mismatch between renewable generation and the intermittent bus schedules causes temporary absence of loads and creates considerable excess energy, potentially rendering...journal article 2022

Yu, Y. (author), Shekhar, A. (author), Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Bauer, P. (author)This paper benchmarks the performance of three practical electric vehicle (EV) charging scheduling methods relative to uncontrolled charging (UNC) in low-voltage (LV) distribution grids. The charging methods compared are the voltage droop method (VDM), price-signal-based method (PSM) and average rate method (ARM). Trade-offs associated with the...journal article 2022

Bauer, M.S. (author)How does an organism regulate its genes? The involved regulation typically occurs in terms of a signal processing chain: an externally applied stimulus or a maternally supplied transcription factor leads to the expression of some downstream genes, which, in turn, are transcription factors for further genes. Especially during development, these...review 2022
