Systems are inherently tied to uncertainty, which necessitates the development of designs and schedules that accommodate this unpredictability. Particularly in modern power systems, the variable efficiency of numerous factors, including pricing, underscores the need for uncertainty modeling. In the meantime, the incorporation of EVs (electric vehicles) into the electrical grid is advancing, with these vehicles being recognized for their role in reducing dependency on fossil energies and enhancing the resilience, stability and efficiency of the grid. However, the rapid growth of the EV sector necessitates thoughtful strategies from decision-makers to manage its expansion effectively, particularly considering the environmental implications associated with the life cycle of EVs, including their charging and discharging processes. This research introduces the conceptual design and optimization approach utilizing a hybrid bat algorithm and differential evolution algorithm (BA-DEA) to improve the efficiency and resilience of EV-smart parking lots under the unpredictable conditions caused by grid pricing fluctuations within the DRP (demand response program). The technique effectively modulates daily costs by adjusting loads among peak and off-peak periods. Key features of the proposed approach include a non-dominated sorting model, innovative variable identification, a memory-based selection process, and the application of fuzzy theory to identify optimal Pareto outcomes. This methodology is not only swift in converging to a solution but also demonstrates a high likelihood of reaching the global optimum. Modeling considerations for smart hydrogen storage systems (SHSSs) incorporate significant constraints, notably those associated with electrolyzers, fuel cells, and storage capacities. The algorithm's effectiveness is validated in scenarios involving parking facilities and multiple uncertain resources, demonstrating a robust reduction in specific cost indicators and adjustments in cost dynamics when DRP is considered. Specifically, the algorithm achieves a substantial 42% decrease in cost variability when DRP is excluded, and a 46.9% reduction in cost variability when DRP is included, despite a minor 5% increase in average cost. These outcomes underscore the proposed system's capability to improve resilience and thermal performance under fluctuating conditions, making it a promising solution for future smart energy systems. Further, the results exhibited the complex interplay between cost optimization and operational adjustments in response to demand-side management.
To improve the properties of AZ31B Mg alloy and for the first time, the rare earth cerium oxide (CeO2) and zirconium dioxide (ZrO2) were combined for synergistic benefits and introduced into the structural AZ31B magnesium alloy through the solid-state friction stir processing procedure to form the hybridized AZ31B Mg/ZrO2+CeO2 composites under variable levels of the tool's rotational speed up to 1200 rpm. The macro-/microstructure, hardness, shear punching strength, tensile strength, corrosion behaviours, and tribological characteristics such as weight/wear loss, wear rate, coefficient of friction, worn surfaces, and debris of the AZ31B Mg/ZrO2+CeO2 hybrid composites were investigated and compared. The results indicated that void, tunnel defect, and ZrO2+CeO2 agglomeration could not be prevented at low speed (800 rpm) while defect-free composites were obtained at high speed (1200 rpm). Grain refinement from 7.39 μm to 3.38 μm and the ZrO2+CeO2 fragmentation (4.52–2.49 μm) ensued after a rise in the tool's rotational speed owing to higher plastic straining, dynamic recrystallization, and ZrO2+CeO2 particle-aided pinning effects. Improvements in hardness (99–135 HV), shear punching strength (121–237 MPa), tensile strength (172–228 MPa) and wear properties of the composite were attained due to the defect elimination, inherent finer Mg grains, and the uniformly dispersed ZrO2+CeO2 particles. These attributes also enhanced the corrosion resistance of the AZ31B Mg/ZrO2+CeO2 composite at the elevated rotating speed of the tool. The combination of the CeO2 and ZrO2 particles is an effective particle-blend for improving the properties of Mg alloy to expand its application scope.
Limited due to the severe shuttle effect, the wide application of lithium-sulfur batteries is difficult to achieve. To overcome this problem, various materials with catalytic effect are developed to inhibit the polysulfide shuttle effect. Herein, we synthesized N-doped porous carbon/Fe2O3 composite (NPC/FO)–efficient catalysts to promote the polysulfide conversion during the electrochemical cycles. Owing to the superior catalytic effect of NPC/FO composite host, the polysulfide shuttle effect could be inhibited. As a result, the as-prepared NPC/FO@S cathode delivered initial high capacity of 1288 mAh/g at 0.1 C. In addition, the NPC/FO@S cathode exhibits excellent rate performance and stable cycling performance. Our finding demonstrates that the N-doped porous carbon/Fe2O3 composites are new efficient host materials for lithium-sulfur batteries.
Owing to the high-energy density and specific capacity, lithium-sulfur batteries are regarded as the most promising energy storage systems, whereas the wide applications of lithium-sulfur batteries are hindered by the severe "shuttle effect" and sluggish redox kinetics of lithium polysulfides. Many strategies have been applied to modify the electrochemical performance, including preparing suitable sulfur hosts, designing functional interlayer, and protecting the lithium anode. Among these strategies, designing functional interlayers is considered as an efficient method to inhibit the shuttle effect and improve the redox kinetics of lithium polysulfides. Herein, MoS2 nanofiber (MSNF) interlayers are prepared and used in the lithium-sulfur batteries. On the one hand, the polysulfide migration could be inhibited due to the chemical adsorption between MoS2 and polysulfide. On the other hand, due to the 3D nanofiber structure of MoS2, it could provide the rapid electron/ion transport and fast redox kinetics. As a result, the lithium-sulfur batteries with MSNF interlayers display high specific capacity and excellent cycling stability.

In a multi-stage gear transmission system, the motion state of the system will change with the excitation frequency, and the frequency characteristics will also change accordingly. If this change is not taken into account, there is often a great deviation in identifying and judging system faults according to unified standards, especially when the system has such early undetectable fault as crack. In this paper, the dimensionless differential equations of motion of multistage gear transmission system are established. The stiffness model of gear tooth crack is established by potential energy method. The changes of the motion state of the system with the increase of excitation frequency are obtained by calculating the displacement bifurcation diagram of cracked gear tooth. The influences of crack fault on each motion state are studied by using time domain, frequency domain, phase diagram and Poincaré cross section, and the fault frequency characteristics are summarized. By comparing the theoretical and experimental data of the vibration response characteristics of the system, the motion state of the system can be effectively determined and the crack fault can be identified.

In the multistage gear transmission system, when multiple faults are coupled, the faults with weak signals are often hidden and hard to identify. Multi-fault coupling may also cause new coupling fault characteristics, such as new peaks or side bands in the spectrum. These characteristics are likely to contain fault information. Studying the sources of frequency components in coupled fault signals will help to decouple the signals and dig out the correlation characteristics between faults. The coupling fault of fixed-axis gear crack and planetary gear tooth broken was studied in this paper. The nonlinear dynamic model of the multi-stage gear transmission system was used for simulation, and the fault frequency characteristics of the system varying with the excitation frequency were obtained. The short-time Fourier transform (STFT) and waterfall plot analysis were applied to the experimental signals to separate the fault features. By comparing the theoretical and experimental signals, we found the natural frequency of the system, the side frequency characteristics of single fault and coupling fault, and the cause of new peaks. This study has a guiding significance for the separation and identification of coupling faults of the multi-stage gear transmission system.
