Resilient power systems operation with offshore wind farms and cloud data centers by Liu, Shengwei, Li, Yuanzheng, Liu, Xuan, Zhao, Tianyang, Wang, Peng

“…To enhance the resilience of power systems with offshore wind farms (OWFs), a proactive scheduling scheme is proposed to unlock the flexibility of cloud data centers (CDCs) responding to uncertain spatial and temporal impacts induced by hurricanes. The total life simulation (TLS) is adopted to project the local weather conditions at transmission lines and OWFs, before, during, and after the hurricane. …”

Productivity improvement for smart manufacturing systems by Sundararaman Manoj

“…On considering the improvements in manufacturing a product, this project aims to focus on developing a fundamental study that compares the infinite buffer and finite buffer settings for a production line and an assembly line. In an assembly line, queue ratio concept is introduced, that states, the parts from the upstream station is sent to two or more downstream stations for processing based on smallest queue ratio between two downstream stations. …”

Combined 2D and 3D features for robust RGB-D visual odometry by Cai, Pei

“…Some works attempt to address this issue by incorporating line features. However, these methods still extract line features merely based on 2D RGB images, resulting in a restricted utilization of the environment’s 3D structural information and therefore providing only limited performance improvement. …”
