Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8898: Simulation Model for Electrical Operation in Agrivoltaic Power Plants: Nine Hourly Panel Orientation Modes
5+ day, 16+ hour ago (355+ words) In an agrivoltaic plot, the hourly panel tracking angle governs electricity, on-site economics, avoided carbon dioxide, irrigation demand and crop yield. Operating for photovoltaic output alone discards that space, and does so when a midday kilowatt-hour has lost its value:…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8868: Room-Temperature Hydrometallurgical Recovery of Lithium and Iron from Spent LiFePO4 Batteries via Selective Leaching and Oxalic Acid Precipitation
6+ day, 1+ hour ago (519+ words) The increasing demand for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) highlights the need for efficient recycling strategies to recover critical materials and reduce environmental impact. This study presents an optimized hydrometallurgical process for the recovery of lithium (Li) and iron (Fe) from spent lithium…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8826: Modeling and Experimental Analysis of the Transmission Error in Top-Hat Harmonic Drive Considering Manufacturing and Assembly Errors
1+ week, 1+ day ago (450+ words) Top-hat-type harmonic drives are widely used in industrial robots and high-end equipment due to their large hollow structure, high load capacity, and high precision. However, unlike cup-type harmonic drives, the transmission error characteristics of top-hat-type structures are influenced by assembly-induced…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8805: Lightweight State of Health Estimation for Lithium-Ion Batteries Based on Hybrid PSO-NM Algorithm and Event-Triggered Adaptive Closed-Loop Correction
1+ week, 1+ day ago (466+ words) Advanced battery management systems (BMS) demand high-precision online prediction of lithium-ion battery state of health (SOH). To address engineering challenges where deep learning and multi-physics models struggle with edge deployment on automotive-grade microcontrollers (MCUs) due to high memory footprints and…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8803: Advanced Control Strategies for Hybrid Fuel Cell/Lithium-Ion Battery Systems in Renewable Applications
1+ week, 1+ day ago (466+ words) This paper presents a model predictive control (MPC)-based energy management strategy for hybrid power systems combining a proton-exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) with a lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery storage unit for renewable energy applications. The proposed framework optimizes…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8799: Speed-Adaptive Horizon Model Predictive Control for Autonomous Vehicle Lateral Path Tracking Under Varying Speeds
1+ week, 1+ day ago (514+ words) This paper addresses the lateral path tracking problem for autonomous vehicles operating over a wide speed range by proposing a speed-adaptive horizon model predictive control (SAH-MPC) strategy. Unlike conventional fixed-horizon MPC, the proposed approach schedules both the prediction horizon Np…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8786: A Hybrid Anomaly-Filtered Spatio-Temporal Framework for Robust Energy Demand Forecasting in Solar-Integrated Smart Grids
1+ week, 2+ day ago (548+ words) The study introduces the Hybrid Anomaly-Filtered Spatio-Temporal Representation Network (HASTRN) to achieve accurate forecasting of short-term and day-ahead energy demand by utilizing smart-meter, solar PV, and weather-integrated data. Energy demand forecasting in residential buildings has become increasingly difficult due to…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8731: Intraday Dispatch Strategies of Battery Energy Storage Systems to Smooth the Duck Curve: A Real-Life Brazilian Case
1+ week, 3+ day ago (280+ words) The growing penetration of centralized and distributed solar photovoltaic (PV) generation has introduced significant operational challenges in power systems, most notably the “duck curve” phenomenon, which is characterized by steep net load ramp-up at dusk. This issue has become increasingly…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8725: Intelligent Forecasting of Smart Home Energy Consumption and Generation Based on Weather Variables
1+ week, 3+ day ago (482+ words) The growing adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) aims to improve global standards of living. However, this trend is accompanied by an increasing demand for energy. AI is rapidly integrating into home energy management systems (HEMS). While numerous artificial neural network…...
Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8698: Hybrid Electro-Thermal and FNN Framework for Joint SoC, SoH Estimation and Lifetime Prediction of Lithium-Ion Batteries in Electric Vehicles
1+ week, 4+ day ago (459+ words) Improving the performance and lifespan of lithium-ion batteries is a key challenge for the development of electric vehicles. However, accurately estimating the state of charge (SoC), state of health (SoH), and life cycle remains complex due to the electrical, thermal,…...
