Recent increases in gas-fired power generation have engendered increased interdependencies between natural gas and power transmission systems. These interdependencies have amplified existing vulnerabilities to gas and power grids, where disruptions can require the curtailment of load in one or both systems. Although typically operated independently, coordination of these systems during severe disruptions can allow for targeted delivery to lifeline services, including gas delivery for residential heating and power delivery for critical facilities. To address the challenge of estimating maximum joint network capacities under such disruptions, we consider the task of determining feasible steady-state operating points for severely damaged systems while ensuring the maximal delivery of gas and power loads simultaneously, represented mathematically as the nonconvex joint Maximal Load Delivery (MLD) problem. To increase its tractability, we present a mixed-integer convex relaxation of the MLD problem. Then, to demonstrate the relaxations effectiveness in determining bounds on network capacities, exact and relaxed MLD formulations are compared across various multi-contingency scenarios on nine joint networks ranging in size from 25 to 1,191 nodes. The relaxation-based methodology is observed to accurately and efficiently estimate the impacts of severe joint network disruptions, often converging to the relaxed MLD problems globally optimal solution within ten seconds.

As the use of renewable generation has increased, electric power systems have become increasingly reliant on natural gas-fired power plants as fast ramping sources for meeting fluctuating bulk power demands. This dependence has introduced new vulnera
bilities to the power grid, including disruptions to gas transmission networks from natural and man-made disasters. To address the operational challenges arising from these disruptions, we consider the task of determining a feasible steady-state operating point for a damaged gas pipeline network while ensuring the maximal delivery of load. We formulate the mixed-integer nonconvex maximal load delivery (MLD) problem, which proves difficult to solve on large-scale networks. To address this challenge, we present a mixed-integer convex relaxation of the MLD problem and use it to determine bounds on the transport capacity of a gas pipeline system. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the relaxation, the exact and relaxed formulations are compared across a large number of randomized damage scenarios on nine natural gas pipeline network models ranging in size from 11 to 4197 junctions. A proof of concept application, which assumes network damage from a set of synthetically generated earthquakes, is also presented to demonstrate the utility of the proposed optimization-based capacity evaluation in the context of risk assessment for natural disasters. For all but the largest network, the relaxation-based method is found to be suitable for use in evaluating the impacts of multi-contingency network disruptions, often converging to the optimal solution of the relaxed formulation in less than ten seconds.
In recent years, developments in plug in hybrid electric vehicles have provided various environmental and economic advantages. In the future smart grids, electric vehicles are seen as an important means of transportation to reduce greenhouse gas emis
sions. One of the main issues regarding to this sort of vehicles is managing their charging time to prevent high peak loads over time. Deploying advanced metering and automatic chargers can be a practical way not only for the vehicle owners to manage their energy consumption, but also for the utilities to manage the electricity load during the day by shifting the charging loads to the off-peak periods. Additionally, an efficient charging schedule can reduce the users electricity bill cost. In this paper we propose a new coordinated multi-period management model for electric vehicles charging scheduling based on multi-objective approach, aiming at optimizing customers charging cost. In the proposed method, a stochastic model is given for starting time of charging, which makes the method a practical tool for simulating the vehicle owners charging behavior effectively. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, two market policies are used as case studies. The computation results can be used to evaluate the impact of electric vehicles scheduling on economic performance of smart grid.
This paper investigates the sparse recovery models for bad data detection and state estimation in power networks. Two sparse models, the sparse L1-relaxation model (L1-R) and the multi-stage convex relaxation model (Capped-L1), are compared with the
weighted least absolute value (WLAV) in the aspects of the bad data processing capacity and the computational efficiency. Numerical tests are conducted on power systems with linear and nonlinear measurements. Based on numerical tests, the paper evaluates the performance of these robust state estimation mod-els. Furthermore, suggestion on how to select parameter of sparse recovery models is also given when they are used in elec-tric power networks.
This paper addresses the problem of control synthesis for nonlinear optimal control problems in the presence of state and input constraints. The presented approach relies upon transforming the given problem into an infinite-dimensional linear program
over the space of measures. To generate approximations to this infinite-dimensional program, a sequence of Semi-Definite Programs (SDP)s is formulated in the instance of polynomial cost and dynamics with semi-algebraic state and bounded input constraints. A method to extract a polynomial control function from each SDP is also given. This paper proves that the controller synthesized from each of these SDPs generates a sequence of values that converge from below to the value of the optimal control of the original optimal control problem. In contrast to existing approaches, the presented method does not assume that the optimal control is continuous while still proving that the sequence of approximations is optimal. Moreover, the sequence of controllers that are synthesized using the presented approach are proven to converge to the true optimal control. The performance of the presented method is demonstrated on three examples.
This paper considers the optimal control for hybrid systems whose trajectories transition between distinct subsystems when state-dependent constraints are satisfied. Though this class of systems is useful while modeling a variety of physical systems
undergoing contact, the construction of a numerical method for their optimal control has proven challenging due to the combinatorial nature of the state-dependent switching and the potential discontinuities that arise during switches. This paper constructs a convex relaxation-based approach to solve this optimal control problem. Our approach begins by formulating the problem in the space of relaxed controls, which gives rise to a linear program whose solution is proven to compute the globally optimal controller. This conceptual program is solved by constructing a sequence of semidefinite programs whose solutions are proven to converge from below to the true solution of the original optimal control problem. Finally, a method to synthesize the optimal controller is developed. Using an array of examples, the performance of the proposed method is validated on problems with known solutions and also compared to a commercial solver.
