Sommario/riassunto

This handy pocket book will help veterinary nurses with all types of calculations. Numerous worked examples are included to develop the reader's confidence in carrying out the procedures involved. Each type of calculation has its own separate section in the book and the authors have used the simplest possible method in explaining each one. The book is structured in such a way that the reader can progress from a simple explanation of the arithmetic principles involved, to the application of these principles to essential veterinary calculations.   Qualified veterinary nurses and students ali

Charging Coordination Paradigms of Electric Vehicles -- Control and Management of PV Integrated Charging Facilities for PEVs -- Hierarchical Coordinated Control Strategies for Plug-in Electric Vehicle Charging -- Impacts of Plug-in Electric Vehicles Integration in Distribution Networks under Different Charging Strategies -- Smart Management of PEV Charging Enhanced by PEV Load Forecasting -- Optimal Charging Strategies of Plug-in Electric Vehicles for Minimizing Load Variance within Smart Grids.

Sommario/riassunto

This book covers the recent research advancements in the area of charging strategies that can be employed to accommodate the anticipated high deployment of Plug-in Electric Vehicles (PEVs) in smart grids. Recent literature has focused on various potential issues of



uncoordinated charging of PEVs and methods of overcoming such challenges. After an introduction to charging coordination paradigms of PEVs, this book will present various ways the coordinated control can be accomplished. These innovative approaches include hierarchical coordinated control, model predictive control, optimal control strategies to minimize load variance, smart PEV load management based on load forecasting, integrating renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic arrays to supplement grid power, using wireless communication networks to coordinate the charging load of a smart grid and using market price of electricity and customers payment to coordinate the charging load. Hence, this book proposes  many new strategies proposed recently by the researchers around the world to address the issues related to coordination of charging load of PEVs in a future smart grid.
