This work focuses on a wireless power transfer (WPT) system at GHz frequency based on near field coupling (NFC) with a class E rectifier and DC-DC converter with power inductor, designed for loads in the mW range. The design is completed on an integrated board, allowing for integration of the WPT coils and power inductor on the circuit board with designed electrical characteristics. The WPT coils and class E rectifier are designed for maximum efficiency, minimizing the losses associated with high frequency, low power operation. A commercial off the shelf (COTS) buck converter is integrated into the architecture to fix the output voltage. The power inductor is fabricated with a Nickel Zinc ferrite epoxy composite screen printed on the top and bottom layer of the integrated board. The complete circuit design is fabricated and measured, with the total measured system efficiency peaking at 22.7% power efficiency at a WPT transmission distance of 2 mm.","PeriodicalId":231217,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Conference on Technologies for Sustainability (SusTech)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125771650","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given the demographic trend of cities, welcoming an increasing share of the world's population, urban planners and government officials are challenged by a growing Urban Density. With a significant population increase pace, Portland's leadership in Sustainability that the largest city of Oregon is claiming could be jeopardized by the effects of Urban Density. What should Portland's urban planners and policies makers do to overtake this challenging trend and remain in a leading position in Sustainability? Various solutions exist in different sectors. Using an Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method, this paper starts by developing a multi-perspective, multi-criteria model that will integrate Portland's specificities for a sustainable overtake of Urban Density. Then, by integrating to this model the proper expertise, the outputs of this model result in a ranked proposal of solutions which aim to give Portland's city planners and leaders an orientation as of which path to consider for preserving Sustainability in an increase urban density context based on both a qualitative input and a quantitative computation of expertise. While the experts' rankings reached a significantly low disagreement rate, B Corp incentive program was the preferred solution for all the panel. Therefore, tackling the Urban Density issue from the economic side was our recommendation.","PeriodicalId":231217,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Conference on Technologies for Sustainability (SusTech)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126579939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The simulation reads recorded data of power generations and loads and attempts to balance the supply and demand to sustain a stable and high quality electricity system. The 3D model is designed to provide a user-friendly game-like educational STEM learning environment. The model simulates the integration of renewable energy (solar, wind, and hydro), energy storage, loads (industrial, commercial, and residential), and the distribution management system with resilient control [1][2] in the microgrid power system. The DMS performance is measured by a proportional, integral, and derivative (PID) controller and analyzed to verify if it can keep the balance of power supply and demand within the allowable limits while sustaining the quality of electricity. This research monitors the frequency of the system as an indicator of the quality of the electricity. The simulation model is implemented using the Unity 3D development platform with C# scripts controlling the algorithms. Users can explore and learn the function of each element in the system by navigating the scenes from a first-person perspective.","PeriodicalId":231217,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Conference on Technologies for Sustainability (SusTech)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125647893","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This trend can be seen in battery (BEV) and hybrid-electric vehicles (HEV). Efficiency of energy storage system (ESS) operation is absolutely crucial to electrified vehicles as batteries are still only capable of delivering a relatively limited amount of power before reaching a discharged state. Minimizing power losses within the electrical system is central to the challenge of developing electric vehicles or plug-in HEV's (PHEV) which can reach extended ranges and create broad consumer appeal. The purpose of our research will be to optimize the operation of the HV/LV electrical system by reducing power loss through control of the DC/DC buck converter duty ratio. A variable DC/DC voltage output will allow the system to use power more efficiently by online matching of the system's real-time power needs. This will be achieved through simulation by a model predictive control (MPC) based power management strategy. Hardware in the loop testing can then be accomplished.","PeriodicalId":231217,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Conference on Technologies for Sustainability (SusTech)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130573820","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Latin American countries are rich in natural resources and this has created an opportunity in exploiting the resources in order to gain economic advances. In particular, the newly rising economic powers in the region are attracting international investments in their oil exploration and production industries. Brazil, Venezuela and Columbia in South and Mexico in North America are among the largest Latin American oil producers of the world. On the other hand, the increasingly concerning effects of the climate change phenomena has drawn significant attention towards methods of controlling the roots of the problem. An important cause as confirmed by the historic emissions data is the man-made Greenhouse Gas emissions resulting from excessive use of fossil fuels, and more importantly the carbon-intensive coal and oil. In this paper, we investigate the possible impacts of an emission control system on Latin American oil producers to control the rate of emissions through a financial market which is referred to as the carbon market. Variations of this system has successfully been implemented in the Europe and some states of the US, such as the state of California. Our approach is based on the system dynamics methodology where the main factors of a complex system are extracted and their causal relations are exploited to obtain mathematical models that can explain the behaviors of overall system. The general tools provided by the system dynamics approach for policy testing makes it very appealing for our purpose which is to test the effect of a carbon market on the Latin American producers. We extend our previous models to fit the Latin American economies focusing on the sustainability issues.","PeriodicalId":231217,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Conference on Technologies for Sustainability (SusTech)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129318923","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The high variation in fuel prices is another area of concern when discussing sustainable energy use that considers future requirements. Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) is an emerging technology in the renewable energy field and is a promising addition to electric power systems. The output power of CSP is highly variable due to the intermittent nature of solar energy resources and the availability of CSP components. A probabilistic model of CSP has been developed to determine the effects of variation of direct solar irradiation and air temperature on power systems reliability. The model is applied to the Roy Billinton Test system (RBTS) to evaluate the reliability contribution of CSP. The impact of a range of factors, such as the system load, installed CSP capacity, and installation site parameters, on the capacity credit and effective load carrying capability of CSP are evaluated and presented in this paper.","PeriodicalId":231217,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Conference on Technologies for Sustainability (SusTech)","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125011229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
