  1. 1. Accelerating Convergence of Large-scale Optimization Algorithms

    Författare :Euhanna Ghadimi; Mikael Johansson; Angelia Nedich; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Convex optimization; Large-scale systems; First-order methods; Convergence analysis; ADMM; Optimization algorithms; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik; Matematik; Mathematics;

    Sammanfattning : Several recent engineering applications in multi-agent systems, communication networks, and machine learning deal with decision problems that can be formulated as optimization problems. For many of these problems, new constraints limit the usefulness of traditional optimization algorithms. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Hydro-mechanical optimization of a wave energy converter

    Författare :Chisom Miriam Ekweoba; Andrej Savin; Halvar Gravråkmo; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Ballast optimization; analytical model; pitching wave energy converter; power absorption performance; wave energy converter; geometry optimization; genetic algorithm; floating platform; extended degrees of freedom; beam model; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Sammanfattning : Wave energy conversion technology has gained popularity due to its potential to be-come one of the most preferred energy sources. Its high energy density and low car-bon footprint have inspired the development of many wave energy converter (WEC) technologies, few of which have made their way to commercialisation, and many are progressing.

  3. 3. Strategies, Methods and Tools for Solving Long-term Transmission Expansion Planning in Large-scale Power Systems

    Författare :Desta Zahlay Fitiwi; Lennart Söder; Michel Rivier; Fernando de Cuadra; Andres Ramos; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transmission expansion planning; uncertainty and variability; optimization; stochastic programming; moments technique; clustering; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Driven by a number of factors, the electric power industry is expected to undergo a paradigm shift with a considerably increased level of variable energy sources. A significant integration of such sources requires heavy transmission investments over geographically wide and large-scale networks. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Energy and Route Optimization of Moving Devices

    Författare :Sarmad Riazi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy optimization; industrial robots; vehicle routing problems; automated guided vehicles.; scheduling; routing;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis highlights our efforts in energy and route optimization of moving devices. We have focused on three categories of such devices; industrial robots in a multi-robot environment, generic vehicles in a vehicle routing problem (VRP) context, automated guided vehicles (AGVs) in a large-scale flexible manufacturing system (FMS).

  5. 5. Modeling Width in Spatial Optimization in Raster Space

    Författare :Lindsi Seegmiller; Takeshi Shirabe; Lars Harrie; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; raster-based geographic information system; spatial optimization; region selection; width; optimal routing; raster data modeling; distortion; corridor; rasterbaserat geografiskt informationssystem; rumslig optimering; regionval; bredd; optimal routing; rasterdatamodellering; distorsion; korridor; Geoinformatik; Geoinformatics;

    Sammanfattning : Given a grid of cells, each of which is assigned a numerical value quantifying its utility (or cost) for a certain use, a popular type of problem in geographic information science is raster-based spatial optimization. Such problems commonly seek to find a set of cells that maximizes (or minimizes) that utility (or cost) while adhering to a given set of constraints. LÄS MER
