The upgraded Pixel Detector of theA TLAS Experiment for Run 2 at the Large Hadron Collider
(2016)Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated EquipmentDuring Run 1 of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the ATLAS Pixel Detector has shown excellent performance. The ATLAS collaboration took advantage of the first long shutdown of the LHC during 2013 and 2014 and extracted the ATLAS Pixel Detector from the experiment, brought it to surface and maintained the services. This included the installation of new service quarter panels, the repair of cables, and the installation of the new Diamond ...Conference Paper -
Recent Results from Beam Tests of 3D and Pad pCVD Diamond Detectors
(2016)38th International Conference on High Energy Physics, ICHEP 2016Results from prototypes of a detector using chemical vapor deposited (CVD) diamond with embedded resistive electrodes in the bulk forming a 3D diamond device are presented. A detector system consisting of 3D devices based on poly-crystalline CVD (pCVD) diamond was connected to a multi-channel readout and successfully tested in a 120 GeV/c proton beam at CERN proving for the first time the feasibility of the 3D detector concept in pCVD for ...Conference Paper -
Multi-horizon Modeling in Hydro Power Planning
(2016)Energy Procedia ~ 5th International Workshop on Hydro Scheduling in Competitive Electricity MarketsIn this paper, a novel modeling framework is proposed, the multi-horizon modeling approach. This approach allows a very detailed and transparent modeling of many problems in hydro power planning by simultaneously being computationally very efficient. The model is applied to a complex pumped storage hydro power plant in a liberalized market environment in order to give decision support for the self-scheduling of it. The modeling framework ...Conference Paper -
Integrating Variable Wind Power using a Hydropower Cascade
(2016)Energy Procedia ~ 5th International Workshop on Hydro Scheduling in Competitive Electricity MarketsIn this paper, we examine the ability of a hydropower cascade to balance variability from wind power. We consider a coordinated hydro-wind system that satisfies a single power balance, and we use a real-time control scheme to optimize system operations such that wind and load curtailment is minimized. The control scheme considers system hydraulics (including dynamic tailrace elevations and water travel times) and system constraints. ...Conference Paper -

Effects of asperity distribution on fluid flow and induced seismicity during deep geothermal exploitation
(2016)Energy Procedia ~ European Geosciences Union General Assembly 2016, EGU Division Energy, Resources & the Environment (ERE)This work investigates the injection-induced seismic response of a heterogeneous fault plane, featuring low-permeability asperities embedded into a high-permeability damage zone. We simulate the pressure evolution with a hydrogeological simulator, accounting for the heterogeneous fault plane. Seismicity occurs then on the asperities, represented as unstable patches reactivating by means of the Mohr-Coulomb criterion. The hydrological and ...Conference Paper -
Searches for BSM physics in diphoton final state at CMS
(2016)PoS: Proceedings of ScienceMany physics scenarios beyond the standard model predict the existence of heavy resonances decaying to diphotons. This note presents searches for BSM physics performed on 3:3 fb-1 of proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment in 2015 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The interpretation of the search results focuses on spin-0 and spin-2 resonances in the mass range of 500 - 4500 GeV and with a relative width up to ...Conference Paper -
Energy Management Optimization for a Hybrid Tracked Vehicle Using the Radau Pseudospectral Method
(2016)Energy Procedia ~ CUE 2015 - Applied Energy Symposium and Summit 2015: Low Carbon Cities and Urban Energy SystemsThis study explored the feasibility of using the Radau pseudospectral method (RPM) to optimize the energy management strategy for a hybrid tracked vehicle. The engine–generator set and the battery pack of the serial hybrid tracked vehicle were modeled and validated through the bench test. A DC-DC converter was equipped between the battery pack and the DC bus in this hybrid powertrain, which increased the flexibility of energy distribution ...Conference Paper -
Knowing whether spatio-temporal analysis procedures are applicable to datasets
(2016)Frontiers in Artificial Intelligence and Applications ~ Formal Ontology in Information SystemsHow can data analysts identify spatio-temporal datasets that are suitable for their task? Answering this question is not only dependent on the aim of the analysis and the semantic contents of the data, but also on knowing whether the required data combinations and transformations, spatio-temporal analysis methods, charts and map visualizations are meaningfully applicable to the data. Operators need to assess whether they can meaningfully ...Conference Paper
