Many benefits can derive by a massive integration of distributed energy resources (DERs) into distribution system; in this view a big issue concerns the treatment of the high number of information needed for a full exploitation of DERs, which require new functionalities and tools for their management and control. A possible solution is to introduce virtual aggregations, such as load areas and virtual...
The JEM-EUSO Collaboration aims to study Ultra-High-Energy Cosmic Ray (UHECR) using a novel approach of looking down from space and using the atmosphere as a large detector to achieve a large effective area and therefore high-statistics on these events for the first time. For this purpose we have been developing a series of pathfinders operating from the ground, high altitude balloons and space, all...
With the moving of distribution systems towards a renewed architecture, new monitoring and control functionalities have emerged; with them a large amount of information need to be treated. Not all this information is strictly necessary; a relevant part of it can be simplified by the concept of Load Area: a group of prosumers whose power injection has a similar impact on the distribution grid operating...
The evolution of the distribution systems involves updated and new control functionalities; along with them, a huge amount of information is made available and has to be handled. Actually, only part of this information is necessary; a remarkable simplification can be obtained by considering only the relevant information. For this scope, a method was recently proposed based on the concept of Load Area,...
The validation of a power control system in industrial plants requires a modelling for simulation of the electric power system that is fairly accurate and computationally-efficient. The second aspect is particularly relevant if a real-time simulation is required. In this paper the classical models of the network and the induction motors are revised so as to allow an adequate trade-off between computational-efficiency...
The updated and new monitoring and control functionalities for distribution systems make available a huge amount of information. Indeed, not all the available information is needed to be considered; a significant simplification could be achieved by selecting and treating only the relevant information. With this aim, the concept of Load Area (LA) was recently introduced: a LA is a group of prosumers...
Distribution System Operators (DSOs) are called to play a new role in the scenario of smart distribution systems: they must allow the full exploitation of demand flexibility, and also benefit from its spreading. To this aim, Distribution Management Systems have to be equipped with new or upgraded functionalities, which could profit of the well-established know-how in the transmission systems. Unfortunately,...
The PAMELA satellite experiment was launched into low earth orbit on June 15th 2006. The combination of a permanent magnet silicon strip spectrometer, and a silicon-tungsten imaging calorimeter allows precision studies of the charged cosmic radiation to be conducted over a wide energy range (100 MeV - 200 GeV). A primary scientific goal is to search for dark matter particle annihilations by measuring...
PAMELA is a satellite-borne experiment designed for precision studies of the charged cosmic radiation. The primary scientific goal is the study of the antimatter component of the cosmic radiation (antiprotons, 80 MeV - 190 GeV; and positrons, 50 MeV - 270 GeV) in order to search for evidence of dark matter particle annihilations. PAMELA will also search for primordial antinuclei (in particular, anti-helium),...
