In this volume of Exploring Effective Leadership Practices through
Popular Culture, Schmidt and Islam examine how you can learn about
research and evidence-based leadership concepts through examples
drawn from the popular MCU movies and related superhero films.
Leaders Assemble! Leadership in the MCU includes sound research and
evidence-based advice on how to improve as a leader on topics such
as leadership development, conflict management, mentorship,
sensemaking, shared leadership, servant leadership, authentic
leadership, servant leadership, and selecting your team. Examples
from your favorite MCU films make these concepts come alive so you
can easily see how they can be used to improve your own leadership
skills. Each chapter focuses on a core leadership concept and shows
you how you can use it to be a successful leader, with MCU films
and superheroes leading the way with relevant examples, before
finally summarizing the main points you can use in your own
leadership practice.
Microgrids have emerged as a promising solution for accommodating
the integration of renewable energy resources. But the
intermittency of renewable generation is posing challenges such as
voltage/frequency fluctuations, and grid stability issues in
grid-connected modes. Model predictive control (MPC) is a method
for controlling a process while satisfying a set of constraints. It
has been in use for chemical plants and in oil refineries since the
1980s, but in recent years has been deployed for power systems and
electronics as well. This concise work for researchers, engineers
and graduate students focuses on the use of MPC for distributed
renewable power generation in microgrids. Fluctuating outputs from
renewable energy sources and variable load demands are covered, as
are control design concepts. The authors provide examples and case
studies to validate the theory with both simulation and
experimental results and review the shortcomings and future
developments. Chapters treat power electronic converters and
control; modelling and hierarchical control of microgrids; use of
MPC for PV and wind power; voltage support; parallel PV-ESS
microgrids; secondary restoration capability; and tertiary power
flow optimization.
