Optimal Operation and Control of Power Systems Using an Algebraic Modelling Language

By: Nnamdi Nwulu,Saheed Lekan Gbadamosi

This book presents mathematical models of demand-side management programs, together with operational and control problems for power and renewable energy systems. It reflects the need for optimal operation and control of today’s electricity grid at both the supply and demand spectrum of the grid. This need is further compounded by the advent of smart grids, which has led to increased customer/consumer participation in power and renewable energy system operations. The book begins by giving an overview of power and renewable energy systems, demand-side management programs and algebraic modeling languages. The overview includes detailed consideration of appliance scheduling algorithms, price elasticity matrices and demand response incentives. Furthermore, the book presents various power system operational and control mathematical formulations, incorporating demand-side management programs. The mathematical formulations developed are modeled and solved using the Advanced Interactive Multidimensional Modeling System (AIMMS) software, which offers a powerful yet simple algebraic modeling language for solving optimization problems. The book is extremely useful for all power system operators and planners who are concerned with optimal operational procedures for managing today’s complex grids, a context in which customers are active participants and can curb/control their demand. The book details how AIMMS can be a useful tool in optimizing power grids and also offers a valuable research aid for students and academics alike.

The Deployment of Prepaid Electricity Meters in Sub-Saharan Africa

Riding the Fourth Industrial Wave

By: Njabulo Kambule,Nnamdi Nwulu

This book provides a novel and holistic perspective on the deployment of prepaid electricity meter technology among energy impoverished (vulnerable) households based in developing or under-developed communities of Sub-Saharan Africa. It explores and reviews the nexus between the technology and socio-economic development, technology acceptance and rejection in low-income households, and ultimately proposes a contextual model to avert or assuage energy poverty in the region using the technology. Science is applied as a convenient, valid, and reliable model to generate bespoke, contextual, and relevant knowledge for policy makers on the development of prepaid meter market in the region. The knowledge shared contributes to extant discourse and debates around the effectiveness of the technology within indigent household settings. The book is intended for energy/electricity utilities, prepaid electricity businesses, policy developers, and other interested parties whose work is related to prepaid electricity meters.

Risk Management Framework for Fourth Industrial Revolution Technologies

By: Omoseni Oyindamola Adepoju,Nnamdi Ikechi Nwulu,Love Opeyemi David

This book focuses on major challenges posed by the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR), particularly the associated risks. By recognizing and addressing these risks, it bridges the gap between technological advancements and effective risk management. It further facilitates a swift adoption of technology and equips readers with the knowledge to be cautious during its implementation. Divided into three parts, it covers an overview of 4IR and explores the risks and risk management techniques and comprehensive risk management framework specifically tailored for the 4IR. Features: • Establishes a risk management framework for Industry 4.0 technologies. • Provides a ‘one stop shop’ of different technologies emerging in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. • Follows a consistent structure for each key Industry 4.0 technology in separate chapters. • Details required risk management skills for the technologies of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. • Covers risk monitoring, control, and mitigation measures. This book is aimed at graduate students, technology enthusiasts, and researchers in computer sciences, technology management, business management, and industrial engineering.

Re-skilling Human Resources for Construction 4.0

Implications for Industry, Academia and Government

By: Omoseni Adepoju,Clinton Aigbavboa,Nnamdi Nwulu,Michael Onyia

This book examines the burgeoning revolution in the construction industry known as Construction 4.0, the attendant need for re-skilling human resources, and key stakeholders' roles in developing the required skills for Construction 4.0. It views the lack of 21st-century skills and skills gap in the industry as significant challenges limiting the uptake and implementation of Construction 4.0 technologies, especially in developing countries. In order to determine the skills required, this book examines the critical technologies of Construction 4.0, such as building information modelling (BIM), robotic construction, 3D printing and drones, which have transformed the construction industry, thereby creating digital, intelligent and sustainable construction solutions. Furthermore, the book considers the benefits, risks and relevant skills required to implement Construction 4.0 technologies.

Engineering Education through Social Innovation

The Contribution of Professional Societies

By: Douglas Gorham,Nnamdi Nwulu

This book explores the nexus between professional technical societies and engineering education by examining several societies’ efforts to promote and support engineering and engineering education in the areas of pre-university education, university education and informal education through programs and activities designed to leverage social innovation. Professional societies are in a unique position to support and contribute to engineering education, and have dedicated substantial resources to social responsibility programs and activities that promote engineers and engineering. The book is chiefly intended for engineers, engineering educators, staff members of professional technical societies, and for the broad range of scholars whose work involves technology education and education policy.
