Chiral liquid crystal colloids
Ye Yuan, Angel Martinez, Bohdan Senyuk +2
Colloidal particles disturb the alignment of rod-like molecules of liquid crystals, giving rise to long-range interactions that minimize the free energy of distorted regions. Parti…
Repulsion-attraction switching of nematic colloids formed by liquid crystal dispersions of polygonal prisms
Bohdan Senyuk, Qingkun Liu, Philip D. Nystrom +1
Self-assembly of colloidal particles due to elastic interactions in nematic liquid crystals promises tunable composite materials and can be guided by exploiting surface functionali…
Liquid Crystal Colloids
Ivan I. Smalyukh
Colloids are abundant in nature, science and technology, with examples ranging from milk to quantum dots and the "colloidal atom" paradigm. Similarly, liquid crystal ordering is im…
Power-Traffic Coordinated Operation for Bi-Peak Shaving and Bi-Ramp Smoothing -A Hierarchical Data-Driven Approach
Huaiguang Jiang, Yingchen Zhang, Yuche Chen +2
With the rapid adoption of distributed photovoltaics (PVs) in certain regions, issues such as lower net load valley during the day and more steep ramping of the demand after sunset…
Load Forecasting Based Distribution System Network Reconfiguration-A Distributed Data-Driven Approach
Yi Gu, Huaiguang Jiang, Jun Jason Zhang +3
In this paper, a short-term load forecasting approach based network reconfiguration is proposed in a parallel manner. Specifically, a support vector regression (SVR) based short-te…
Chance-Constrained Day-Ahead Hourly Scheduling in Distribution System Operation
Yi Gu, Huaiguang Jiang, Jun Jason Zhang +3
This paper aims to propose a two-step approach for day-ahead hourly scheduling in a distribution system operation, which contains two operation costs, the operation cost at substat…
Collective behavior of active topological solitons, knotted streamlines, and transport of cargo in liquid crystals
Hayley R. O. Sohn, Paul J. Ackerman, Timothy J. Boyle +3
Active colloids and liquid crystals are capable of locally converting the macroscopically-supplied energy into directional motion and promise a host of new applications, ranging fr…
Online Stochastic Optimization of Networked Distributed Energy Resources
Xinyang Zhou, Emiliano Dall'Anese, Lijun Chen
This paper investigates distributed control and incentive mechanisms to coordinate distributed energy resources (DERs) with both continuous and discrete decision variables as well…
A cross-vendor and cross-state analysis of the GPS-probe data latency
Zhongxiang Wang, Masoud Hamedi, Elham Sharifi +1
Crowdsourced GPS probe data has become a major source of real-time traffic information applications. In addition to traditional traveler advisory systems such as dynamic message si…
Generalized gradient optimization over lossy networks for partition-based estimation
Marco Todescato, Nicoletta Bof, Guido Cavraro +2
We address the problem of distributed convex unconstrained optimization over networks characterized by asynchronous and possibly lossy communications. We analyze the case where the…
Predicting kinetics of polymorphic transformations from structure mapping and coordination analysis
Vladan Stevanovic, Ryan Trottier, Felix Therrien +3
To extend rational materials design and discovery into the space of metastable polymorphs, rapid and reliable assessment of their lifetimes is essential. Motivated by the early wor…
Superlinear Increase of Photocurrent due to Stimulated Scattering into a Polariton Condensate
D. Myers, B. Ozden, M. Steger +5
We show that when a monopolar current is passed through an n-i-n structure, superlinear photocurrent response occurs when there is a polariton condensate. This is in sharp contrast…
Critical role of electronic correlations in determining crystal structure of transition metal compounds
Nicola Lanatà, Tsung-Han Lee, Yong-Xin Yao +2
The choice that a solid system "makes" when adopting a crystal structure (stable or metastable) is ultimately governed by the interactions between electrons forming chemical bonds.…
Virtual-Voltage Partition-Based Approach to Optimal Transmission Switching
Chin-Yao Chang, Sonia Martinez, Jorge Cortes
This paper deals with optimal transmission switching (OTS) problems involving discrete binary decisions about network topology and non-convex power flow constraints. We adopt a sem…
