Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Greetings! We would like to to bring your attention to our special issue, Recent  Advances in Industrial Mathematics and Applications for Current Smart Energy Systems.

Advanced industrial mathematics has achieved tangible success in ubiquitous energy industry operations, both historically and presently. Inspired by this, this Special Issue focuses on the development and/or use of recent advances in industrial mathematics for the control, operation, and planning of the current energy systems including electric power, thermal, gas, water, and transportation systems or their combinations. Academics, industrial stakeholders, and research groups are invited to bring novel insights into problems related to current multi-energy systems, active distribution systems, smart grids, smart cities, green buildings, etc. This Special Issue provides a platform for our community to present novel and unpublished work in the domain of control theory, operations research, and machine learning that attacks the unsolved or emerging problems. This will contribute to facilitating future research in industrial mathematics related to the energy industry.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  1. Mathematical models and analytical characteristics of current smart energy systems;
  2. Deterministic reformulation techniques for uncertainty-incorporated mathematical programming problems;
  3. Exact algorithms for general multi-level mixed-integer linear programs with applications to energy systems;
  4. Interval mathematics, including interval analysis and optimization algorithms, with applications to energy systems;
  5. Efficient cutting-plane algorithms for multistage stochastic/robust/distributionally robust planning/scheduling models;
  6. Learning-based smart energy systems operation and control.

Offshore wind farms have boomed worldwide due to the sustainability of wind power and ocean resources. Power grid companies should consider the wind power consumption problem with more power generated. Power-flow calculation is the most fundamental tool in energy management. This paper proposes the convex-relaxation-based method for offshore wind farms’ power flow. In this method, the traditional equations’ problem solving is transferred into standard convex optimization, which can be solved efficiently with unique optimum. Second-order cone relaxations are imposed to describe the quadratic relationship. The exactness of the relaxation is guaranteed with the special definition of the objective function.The superiority of the proposed method is tested on the case study, for which a computational efficiency improvement is shown. Moreover, the reliability of the power-flow results is verified within the precision tolerance. Full article

This paper expresses the output power of renewable generators and load demand as interval data and develops the interval economic dispatch (IED), as well as interval reactive power optimization (IRPO) models. The two models are generalized into a specific type of linear interval programming (LIP) and nonlinear interval programming (NLIP), respectively. A security limits method (SLM) is proposed to solve LIP and NLIP problems. As for the LIP, the maximum radii of the interval variables are first calculated by the optimizing-scenarios method (OSM) for defining security limits, and the LIP is transformed into deterministic linear programming (LP), for which its constraints are the security limits, which can be solved by the simplex method. As for the NLIP, Monte Carlo simulations were used to obtain the maximum radii of the interval variables, and the average interval ratio of the interval variables is defined to compute the security limits for transforming the NLIP to deterministic nonlinear programming (NLP), which can be solved by using the interior point method. Finally, the IED and IRPO are used to verify the effectiveness and engineering of the proposed SLM. Full article
