Micro-economic analysis of the physical constrained markets: game theory application to competitive electricity markets

Competition has been introduced in the electricity markets with the goal of reducing prices and improving efficiency. The basic idea which stays behind this choice is that, in competitive markets, a greater quantity of the good is exchanged at a lower price, leading to higher market efficiency. Electricity markets are pretty different from other commodities mainly due to the physical constraints related to the network structure that may impact the market performance. The network structure of the system on which the economic transactions need to be undertaken poses strict physical and operational constraints. Strategic interactions among producers that game the market with the objective of maximizing their producer surplus must be taken into account when modeling competitive electricity markets. The physical constraints, specific of the electricity markets, provide additional opportunity of gaming to the market players. Game theory provides a tool to model such a context. This paper discussed the application of game theory to physical constrained electricity markets with the goal of providing tools for assessing the market performance and pinpointing the critical network constraints that may impact the market efficiency. The basic models of game theory specifically designed to represent the electricity markets will be presented. IEEE30 bus test system of the constrained electricity market will be discussed to show the network impacts on the market performances in presence of strategic bidding behavior of the producers.     

Solving multiple-objective problems in the objective space

Projection and relaxation techniques are employed to decompose a multiobjective problem into a two-level structure. The basic manipulation consists in projecting the decision variables onto the space of the implicit tradeoffs, allowing the definition of a relaxed multiobjective master problem directly in the objective space. An additional subproblem tests the feasibility of the solution encountered by the relaxed problem. Some properties of the relaxed problem (linearity, small number of variables, etc.) render its solution efficient by a number of methods. Representatives of two different classes of multiobjective methods [the Geoffrion, Dyer, Feinberg (GDF) method and the fuzzy method of Baptistella and Ollero] are implemented and applied within this context to a water resources allocation problem. The results attest the computational viability of the overall procedure and its usefulness for the solution of multiobjective problems.This work was partially sponsored by grants from CNP_q and FAPESP, Brazil.

混煤煤灰熔融特性及矿物质形态的研究

本文对混煤熔融特性温度进行测定，并利用X-射线衍射分析对混煤煤灰的矿物组成进行试验分析，结果表明：混煤可改变原煤的结渣程度；混煤灰熔点与混煤比不成线性关系变化是混煤煤灰的低温共熔现象所致；在变形温度T1下煤灰中矿物质莫来石对煤灰熔融特性温度影响较大，莫来石含量越高，灰熔点越高．     

Raman spectroscopy of hydrogen arsenate group (AsO3OH)2− in solid‐state compounds: cobalt‐containing zinc arsenate mineral,koritnigite (Zn,Co)(AsO3OH)·H2O

Raman spectra of two well‐defined types of koritnigite crystals from the Jáchymov ore district, Czech Republic, were recorded and interpreted. No substantial differences were observed between both crystal types. The observed Raman bands were attributed to the (AsO₃OH)²⁻ stretching and bending vibrations as well as stretching and bending vibrations of water molecules and hydroxyl ions. The non‐interpreted Raman spectra of koritnigite from the RRUFF database and the published infrared spectra of cobaltkoritnigite were used for comparison. The O H···O hydrogen bond lengths in the crystal structure of koritnigite were inferred from the Raman spectra and compared with those derived from the X‐ray single‐crystal refinement. The presence of (AsO₃OH)²⁻ units in the crystal structure of koritnigite was proved from the Raman spectra, which supports the conclusions of the X‐ray structure analysis.
