Unbalanced optimal power flow refers to a class of optimization problems subject to the steady state physics of three-phase power grids with nonnegligible phase unbalance. Significant progress on this problem has been made on the…

We study a nonlinear, degenerate cross-diffusion model which involves two densities with two different drift velocities. A general framework is introduced based on its gradient flow structure in Wasserstein space to derive a notion of…

The unsupervised task of aligning two or more distributions in a shared latent space has many applications including fair representations, batch effect mitigation, and unsupervised domain adaptation. Existing flow-based approaches estimate…

First we present an approach to formulate unbalanced three-phase power flow problems for general networks that explicitly separates device models and network models. A device model consists of (i) an internal model and (ii) a conversion…

Simulations have shown that while semi-definite relaxations of AC optimal power flow (AC-OPF) on three-phase radial networks with only wye connections tend to be exact, the presence of delta connections seem to render them inexact. This…

Linear optimal power flow (LOPF) algorithms use a linearization of the alternating current (AC) load flow equations to optimize generator dispatch in a network subject to the loading constraints of the network branches. Common algorithms…

The homotopy analysis method is studied in the present paper. The question of convergence of the homotopy analysis method is resolved. It is proven that under a special constraint the homotopy analysis method does converge to the exact…

We study the existence of weak solutions to the two-phase model of crowd motion. The model encompasses the flow in the uncongested regime (compressible) and the congested one (incompressible) with the free boundary separating the two…

Power distribution networks, especially in North America, are often unbalanced but are designed to keep unbalance levels within the limits specified by IEEE, IEC, and NEMA standards. However, rapid integration of unbalanced devices, such as…

A finite element method with mass-lumping and flux upwinding, is formulated for solving the immiscible two-phase flow problem in porous media. The method approximates directly the wetting phase pressure and saturation, which are the primary…

The AC power flow equations describe the steady-state behavior of the power grid. While many algorithms have been developed to compute solutions to the power flow equations, few theoretical results are available characterizing when such…

We study the routing problem for vehicles with limited energy through a network of inhomogeneous charging nodes. This is substantially more complicated than the homogeneous node case studied in [1]. We seek to minimize the total elapsed…

This paper addresses the problem of voltage regulation in power distribution networks with deep-penetration of distributed energy resources, e.g., renewable-based generation, and storage-capable loads such as plug-in hybrid electric…

This two-part paper details a theory of solvability for the power flow equations in lossless power networks. In Part I, we derive a new formulation of the lossless power flow equations, which we term the fixed-point power flow. The model is…

We study the problem of routing vehicles with energy constraints through a network where there are at least some charging nodes. We seek to minimize the total elapsed time for vehicles to reach their destinations by determining routes as…

In this paper, we discuss our approach and algorithmic framework for solving large-scale security constrained optimal power flow (SCOPF) problems. SCOPF is a mixed integer non-convex optimization problem that aims to obtain the minimum…

The distribution system problems, such as planning, loss minimization, and energy restoration, usually involve the phase balancing or network reconfiguration procedures. The determination of an optimal phase balance is, in general, a…

Capacity expansion models for the electric power system often employ zonal (rather than nodal) resolution, necessitating estimates of aggregate power transfer limits across the interfaces between model zones. Interface limits between…

We consider the problem of how multiple areas should jointly cover congestion rents of internal and tie-lines in an interconnected power system. A key issue of our concern is the loop flow problem, which represents discrepancies between…

The increasing global spread of electric vehicles (EVs) has introduced significant interdependence between transportation and power networks. Most of the previous studies on coupled networks focus on the formation of equilibrium states…
