Modern distribution systems are equipped with various distributed energy resources (DERs) because of the importance of local generation. These distribution systems encounter more and more uncertainties because of the ever-increasing use of renewable energies. Other sources of uncertainty, such as load variation and system components? failure, will intensify the unpredictable nature of modern distribution systems. Integrating energy storage systems into distribution grids can play a role as a flexible bidirectional source to accommodate issues from constantly varying loads and renewable resources.

Joint Modeling Of Rayleigh Wave Dispersion And H/V Spectral Ratio Using Pareto-Basedmultiobjective Particle Swarm Optimization, Ersi̇n Büyük, Ekrem Zor, Abdullah Karaman

Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences

Estimating the shear wave velocity and thickness of geologic units in a sedimentary structure is important for quantifying the local site effect caused by an earthquake. Inversion of the Rayleigh wave dispersion alone is sensitive to the absolute average shear wave velocity, while the H/V spectral ratio is sensitive to velocity contrasts. The solution of these models in a joint system using conventional inversion techniques suffers from difficulties while evaluating partial derivatives, dependencies to the initial model that is sometimes difficult to estimate, and trapping at a local minimum. Herein, a joint model using the Pareto optimality technique with multiobjective …
