Abstract Electric vehicle (EV) is the growing vehicular technology for sustainable development to reduce carbon emission and to save fossil fuel. The charging station (CS) is necessary at appropriate locations to facilitate the EV owners to charge their vehicle as well as to keep the distribution system parameters within permissible limits. Besides that, the selection of a charging station is also a significant task for the EV user to reduce battery energy wastage while reaching the EV charging station. This paper presents a realistic solution for the allocation of public fast-charging stations (PFCS) along with solar distributed generation (SDG). A 33 node radial distribution network is superimposed with the corresponding traffic network to allocate PFCSs and SDGs. Two interconnected stages of optimization are used in this work. The first part deals with the optimization of PFCS’s locations and SDG’s locations with sizes, to minimize the energy loss and to improve voltage profile using harris hawk optimization (HHO) and few other soft computing techniques. The second part handles the proper assignment of EVs to the PFCSs with less consumption of the EV’s energy considering the road distances with traffic congestion using linear programming (LP), where the shortest paths are decided by Dijkstra's algorithm. The 2m point estimation method (2m PEM) is employed to handle the uncertainties associated with EVs and SDGs. The robustness of solutions are tested using wilcoxon signed rank test and quade test.

With the development of smart grid and low-carbon electricity, a high proportion of renewable energy is connected to the grid. In addition, the peak-valley difference of system load increases, which makes the traditional grid scheduling method no longer suitable. Therefore, this paper proposes a two-stage low-carbon economic scheduling model considering the characteristics of wind, light, thermal power units, and demand response at different time scales. This model not only concerns the deep peak state of thermal power units under the condition of large-scale renewable energy, but also sets the uncertain models of PDR (Price-based Demand Response) virtual units and IDR (Incentive Demand Response) virtual units. Taking the system operation cost and carbon treatment cost as the target, the improved bat algorithm and 2PM (Two-point Estimation Method) are used to solve the problem. The introduction of climbing costs and low load operating costs can more truly reflect the increased cost of thermal power units. Meanwhile, the source-load interaction can weigh renewable energy limited costs and the increased costs of balancing volatility. The proposed method can be applied to optimal dispatch and safe operation analysis of the power grid with a high proportion of renewable energy. Compared with traditional methods, the total scheduling cost of the system can be reduced, and the rights and obligations of contributors to system operation can be guaranteed to the greatest extent.

This paper addresses the vibration control of single-span beams subjected to a moving mass by coupling the saturated nonlinear control and an improved point estimation method (IPEM). An optimal nonlinear feedback control law, for a kind of uncertain linear system with actuator nonlinearities, is derived using the combination of Pontryagin's maximum principles and the improved point estimation method. The stability of the feedback system is guaranteed using a Lyapunov function. In order to obtain the instantaneously probabilistic information of output responses, a novel moment approach is presented by combining the improved point estimation method, the maximum entropy methodology and the probability density evolution theory. In addition to the consideration of stochastic system parameters, the external loadings are considered as a nonstationary random excitation and a moving sprung mass, respectively. The proposed strategy is then used to perform vibration suppression analysis and parametric sensitivity analysis of the given beam. From numerical simulation results, it is deduced that the improved point estimation method is a priority approach to the optimal saturated nonlinear control of stochastic beam systems. This observation has widespread applications and prospects in vehicle–bridge interaction and missile–gun systems.

Over the last decades, the resonance-related dynamics for bridge systems subjected to a moving train has been researched and discussed from mechanics, physics and mathematics. In the current work, new perspectives of train-induced resonance analysis are investigated through introducing random propagation process into the train–bridge dynamic interactions. Besides, the Nataf-transformation-based point estimation method is applied to generate pseudorandom variables following arbitrarily correlated probability distributions. A three-dimensional (3D) nonlinear train-ballasted track–bridge interaction model founded on fundamental physical and mechanical principles is employed to convey and depict train–bridge interactions with random properties considered. After that, extensive applications are illustrated in detail for revealing the statistical characteristics of the so-called “random resonance”. Numerical results show that the critical train speeds associated with resonance and cancelation are random in essence owing to the variability of system parameters; the correlation between parameters exerts obvious influences on system dynamic behaviors; the last vehicle of a train will be in more violent vibrations compared to the front vehicles; the influences of track irregularities on the wheel–rail interactions are significantly greater than those of resonance.
