The solution is a renewable energy based microgrid system that augments the sporadic grid power supply and uses a cloud based intelligence-enabled system to provide reliable supply to consumer at the tail-end of the grid. In this paper we propose, a Microgrid Control Centre (MGCC) that uses a low-cost PIC controller which handles the load management based on dynamic or scheduled inputs communicated to the MGCC through a Microgrid Communication Centre (MGComC). The MGCC receives this input from the cloud, derived from computations performed on the various parameters by rule engine. Such parameters include weather, availability of renewable generation sources, feedstock for biogas etc. Additionally, MGComC performs the data acquisition and the communication to the cloud. This communication is made possible through a GPRS shield for the MGComC microcontroller. The Village Weather Station (VWS) monitors weather related permanents that are critical to the forecasting of renewable energy generation. These weather parameters are sent from the VWS to the MGComC. The data acquired is committed to the cloud where the analytics are performed.","PeriodicalId":385879,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE Workshop on Environmental Energy and Structural Monitoring Systems","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130139810","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 case study is a cable-stayed bridge 260 m long spanning the Adige River ten kilometers north of the town of Trento, Italy. It is a statically indeterminate structure, consisting of a steel-concrete composite deck, supported by 12 stay cables. Structural redundancy, possible relaxation losses and an as-built condition differing from design, suggest that longterm load redistribution between cables can be expected. To monitor load redistribution, the owner decided to install a monitoring system that combines built-on-site elasto-magnetic and fiber-optic sensors. In this article, we discuss a rational way to improve the accuracy of the load variation, estimated using the elasto-magnetic sensors, taking advantage of the fiber-optic sensors information. More specifically, we use a multi-sensor Bayesian data fusion approach, which combines the information from the two sensing systems with the prior knowledge including design information and outcomes of laboratory calibration. Using the data acquired to date, we demonstrate that combining the two measurements allows a more accurate estimate of the cable load, to better than 50 kN.","PeriodicalId":385879,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE Workshop on Environmental Energy and Structural Monitoring Systems","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115312670","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 conditions measured across this network include temperature, humidity, light levels, ambient sound level, room occupancy and an informal survey of occupant comfort level. The nodes were designed to be low cost with the intention that a significant number of them could be deployed around large buildings. In the initial study described in this paper, a network comprising 17 prototypes nodes has been deployed in a multi-use university building. The sensor network is Ethernet based and uses the building's existing infrastructure for communication with a central server which stores the recorded data. Preliminary analysis of the data collected from this sensor network over a period of 10 months combined with data from a local meteorological station and data from the building's fiscal energy meters is presented. The overall goal of the project is to use the data from the network to find more energy efficient methods of heating the building while maintaining occupant comfort. In particular, it is anticipated that the data collected from the network will identify parameters, other than temperature, which are indicative of occupant comfort. To determine this, the current work is focussed on building a classifier to predict occupant comfort level, given the data measured by the sensor nodes combined with data from a local weather station and the building's smart energy meters. Analysis of the identified model should indicate which variables most influence occupant comfort. The project also aims to produce a dataset which may be used for future research and aid design of sensor networks.","PeriodicalId":385879,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE Workshop on Environmental Energy and Structural Monitoring Systems","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129353421","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}

In this context, health facilities (hospitals) are required to stand under operation to frequent earthquakes and suffer limited damage. Modern seismic codes reflect such objectives and provide specific requirements to both structural and non-structural components. As a consequence, performance and safety requirements do not apply only to primary structural components, but also to electro-mechanical, medical and other equipment. In the present paper, a review of the health facilities primary vulnerability factors and of the issues related to a rational and objective assessment of performance and health state of structural and non-structural components is presented. Strategies and recommendations for a sustainable implementation of Smart Health Facilities (SHF) according to the AtoEparadigm (Accuracy, Budget compliance, Computational burden, Durability, Ease of use) on a long term basis, are discussed, taking into account the specific requirements and characteristics of the different subsystems in a hospital. Key aspects of the system implementation are also presented in the light of advanced operational modal analysis techniques for automated data reduction.","PeriodicalId":385879,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE Workshop on Environmental Energy and Structural Monitoring Systems","volume":"18 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125886596","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}

One of the most evident, it is the wide diffusion, in some countries, of smart metering technologies for monitoring of customer electrical consumption. The proven benefits of this technology suggested to the Italian regulative agency the adoption of similar smart solutions for water and gas meters. Currently, the transmission technology which seems to satisfy the strict constraints of power consumption and wide range is the wM-bus operating in different frequency bands, including the recently standardized portion of the spectrum around 169 MHz. This technology provides a low-power and reliable communication channel, but it is not integrated with the IP-based protocols. This may represent a limit since all the ongoing standardization efforts consider the IP suite the unifying framework for the very different network tiers of a Smart Grid. In this paper, the mapping of IPv6 protocol, over wM-bus has been proposed and evaluated in a dedicated simulation environment. The results confirm the feasibility of the proposed approach: the transmission of a typical DLMS/COSEM packet takes only few additional resources compared to wM-bus solution, although the medium access technique of wM-bus decreases the communication performance.","PeriodicalId":385879,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE Workshop on Environmental Energy and Structural Monitoring Systems","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126370038","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}

Utilities are already exploiting such information through Demand Side Management and Forecasting Algorithms that have been proved to help reducing the overall electricity demand. To push further this “green” trend toward the realization of Smart Grid, we propose to apply the forecasting techniques also to the residential users electricity demand. Exponential smoothing forecasting has been demonstrated to be effective to analyze and to provide trends for higher scale (National or Regional level) of the demand. We tested and moved the approach to residential users and assessed the performance when data have high time variability. Two different datasets have been used and the accuracy of the forecasting has been compared with the performance of the same predictors when national level data are used. Our tests show encouraging results, even if the prediction's accuracy is much lower when dealing with single users and the importance of the pre-filtering of the collected data is fundamental.","PeriodicalId":385879,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE Workshop on Environmental Energy and Structural Monitoring Systems","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129415905","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}

However, in spite of the good performances already proved by several studies, the optimal operation and the long-term sustainability of a specific geothermal plant is always affected by a certain degree of uncertainty. The installation of accurate and stable temperature monitoring systems within geothermal boreholes would hence contribute significantly to increase the confidence towards this kind of technology. Unfortunately, existing temperature acquisition systems can be expensive and difficult to deploy, especially in small (i.e. domestic) plants. In this paper, first the general requirements of this kind of monitoring systems are described, in order to find a reasonable tradeoff between measurement accuracy and installation costs. Then, two different solutions, one based on Pt100 sensors, the other based on a more innovative 1-Wire® system are presented and compared. Finally, some meaningful experimental results are reported and commented.","PeriodicalId":385879,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE Workshop on Environmental Energy and Structural Monitoring Systems","volume":"109 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128017827","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}
