In order to promote sustainable construction and coordinated development of healthy cities in small and medium-sized cities, as well as to improve people's happiness, this paper takes the border city of Dandong as an example. It constructs 5 primary indexes and 28 secondary indexes, including healthy environment, healthy culture, health service, healthy society, and healthy tourism real estate. Among them, the index for healthy tourism real estate includes five secondary indicators: tourism income, number of tourists, real estate transaction volume, average selling price of commercial housing, and renovation of old residential areas. This paper analyzes the overall goal of healthy city construction in Dandong using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). The relative priorities of the five first-level indicators considered are: healthy environment; healthy society; health service; healthy tourism real estate; and healthy culture. This indicates that a focus on creating a healthy environment is more important in evaluating a city's health. According to data analysis, Dandong has met national standards for creating a healthy environment and promoting a vibrant cultural scene. In addition to this achievement, the number of practicing (assistant) doctors per 1000 people in health services reached national standards in 2018, and people's living standards have gradually improved. Combining the advantages of local tourist destinations with the promotion of healthy development in the tourist industry, and balanced growth in real estate development as contributed to the creation of a positive social environment conducive to good health.

On-line monitoring of flow rate is rather important to evaluate the water consumption of the pump-turbine and the overall efficiency of the pumped storage station. Flow rate can be worked out based on the flow differential pressure measured in the flow passage and coefficients determined on model test. But the coefficients must be calibrated to obtain the reliable flow rate. As thermodynamic method is a common way to measure the discharge of prototype pump-turbine, site test is carried out on a vertical pump-turbine with 600 m rated head to calibrated the coefficients in this paper. Measuring devices are designed to satisfy both the turbine and pump operating conditions, and test results of flow rate at both turbine and pump operating conditions are presented and show that the calibrated coefficients are different to the predicted values. The calibrated results indicate the importance of site calibration on prototype turbine to ensure the monitoring validity on real-time flow rate.

With the opening of the power market and the development of the energy Internet, the optimal allocation of regional energy systems has become the key to achieving energy efficiency and economic balance. The article studies how to achieve this balance by optimizing the allocation of regional energy systems under the influence of price fluctuations and load demand uncertainty in the electricity market. This study introduces a real-time electricity price adjustment mechanism to stimulate user participation in energy adjustments and improve energy utilization efficiency. By constructing an optimization model based on multiple uncertainties and comprehensive demand response, uncertainty factors such as energy market price fluctuations and climate change were considered, and user demand response was integrated. The research results indicate that electricity price fluctuations have a significant impact on system operation, while CSP power plant thermal storage fluctuations have a relatively small impact. After the introduction of demand response, the electricity load can be reduced to zero during specific periods, and the adjustment of electricity prices stimulates user participation and improves the consumption rate of renewable energy. The total revenue of the system increased by 54.147 million yuan, demonstrating the potential of optimized configuration in reducing costs and improving efficiency. This study provides important references for building more efficient and sustainable energy systems.

With the widespread application of distributed power sources in distribution networks, fault self-healing technology has become the key to ensuring the reliability of power systems. The micro-grid ensures system stability with a three-layer structure, where the designed method handles optimization problems, achieving faster global search and optimal solutions. Agents develop targeted recovery strategies by understanding network load, which are then executed by higher-level agents to ensure that the optimal recovery command is implemented by the system. According to the research results, during peak load, the system successfully outputted 7 kilowatts and met the load demand through battery discharge, demonstrating its self-healing ability. The output analysis of photovoltaic and wind turbines showed that the system reasonably scheduled within 24 h according to the changes in solar energy and wind power. Based on the quantum behavior particle swarm optimization algorithm, the system has achieved lower active power loss and greater power supply capacity. Although the number of switch operations has increased, the system performance has significantly improved, meeting the requirements for improving system economy and safety. It has promoting effects on the sustainable development of future power systems.

A self-adaptive energy storage coordination control strategy based on virtual synchronous machine technology was studied and designed to address the oscillation problem caused by new energy units. By simulating the characteristics of synchronous generators, the inertia level of the new energy power system was enhanced, and frequency stability optimization was achieved. This strategy is integrated with the frequency response model of the new energy power system to improve the system's frequency regulation capability and achieve more stable and efficient operation. From the results, the damping of the system increased, the oscillation frequency decreased after a duration of about 15 s, and the system stability improved by 76.09%. The proposed strategy based on virtual synchronous generator adaptive energy storage coordination control strategy was improved by 83.25%. In addition, the proposed strategy has improved stability indicators and system completion efficiency by 40.57% and 22.21% respectively, both of which are better than the comparative strategies. As a result, this strategy significantly enhances the frequency regulation capability of the system, which has a positive effect on achieving efficient operation of the new energy power system and maintaining the stability of the power system.

The efficient operation of heating ventilation and air conditioning systems relies on advanced control strategies. However, current control methods are often limited by issues such as uncertain system parameter information and spatial coupling constraints related to the supply rate of the air supply fan. To this end, an energy joint thermal comfort management method for complex environments in multiple regions is proposed. The long-term total cost minimization of the system is established, and then the Lyapunov optimization technology is used to design the distributed control algorithm. Simulation validation shows that the proposed method reduces the energy cost by an average of 11.24% compared to other methods with a thermal discomfort cost coefficient of 0. The average temperature deviation in the area is improved by 0.15 °C and 0.68 °C, respectively. The method saves more than 10% of the total energy cost under different thermal perturbations with an average total temperature deviation of 0.04 °C. The results indicate that the proposed energy joint thermal comfort management method can flexibly balance energy costs and user thermal comfort without knowing any prior information of system parameters, which can also greatly protect user privacy information. This method has application value in the control of heating ventilation and air conditioning systems in complex environments such as commercial buildings.

Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) unit being an offshore vessel, storing and producing crude oil, prior to crude oil being transported by accompanying shuttle tanker. Critical mooring/hawser strains during offloading operation have to be accurately predicted, in order to maintain operational safety and reliability. During certain types of offloading, excessive hawser tensions may occur, causing operational risks. Current study examines FPSO vessel’s dynamic reactions to hydrodynamic wave-induced loads, given realistic in situ environmental conditions, utilizing the AQWA software package. Current study advocates novel multi-dimensional spatiotemporal risks assessment approach, that is particularly well suited for large dataset analysis, based on numerical simulations (or measurements). Advocated multivariate reliability methodology may be useful for a variety of marine and offshore systems that must endure severe environmental stressors during their intended operational lifespan. Methodology, presented in this study provides advanced capability to efficiently, yet accurately evaluate dynamic system failure, hazard and damage risks, given representative dynamic record of multidimensional system’s inter-correlated critical components. Gaidai risk assessment method being novel dynamic multidimensional system’s lifetime assessment methodology. In order to validate and benchmark Gaidai risk assessment method, in this study it was applied to FPSO and potentially LNG (i.e., Liquid Natural Gas) vessels dynamics. Major advantage of the advocated approach is that there are no existing alternative risk assessment methods, able to tackle unlimited number of system’s dimensions. Accurate multi-dimensional risk assessment had been carried out, based on numerically simulated data, partially verified by available laboratory experiments. Confidence intervals had been given for predicted dynamic high-dimensional system risk levels.
