(2020-11-30)High integration of intermittent renewable energy sources (RES), specifically wind power, has created complexities in power system operations due to their limited controllability and predictability. In addition, large ...
-
(2020-04-16)Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) analysis is a common tool used to analyze aeroelastic problems. The traditional FSI scheme couples independent structure and fluid solvers in space and time. For many aerospace applications ...
-
(2021-12-01)This thesis analyzes the connection between the Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller and the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) Algorithm and proposes two novel methods, PBSv2 and PAA, to enhance the performance ...
-
(2022-07-07)The global pursuit for sustainability led to industrial parks, where traditionally separate operations are integrated to achieve greater overall economic, environmental, and social benefits that would otherwise be unattainable. ...
-
(2009-05-15)A performance model and a reliability-based optimization model for flexible pavements that accounts for the effects of rehabilitation actions are developed. The developed performance model can be effectively implemented ...
-
(2020-11-17)Design and material selection of bituminous mixtures (asphalt concrete) have a decisive role in mixture and pavement performance. Traditionally, the design of the mixtures has focused on the volumetric fractions of components. ...
-
(2013-06-25)Unmanned Vehicles (UVs) have been significantly utilized in military and civil applications over the last decade. Path-planning of UVs plays an important role in effectively using the available resources such as the UVs ...
-
(2010-07-14)This research addresses some critical challenges in various problems of VLSI design automation, including sophisticated solution search on DAG topology, simultaneous multi-stage design optimization, optimization on ...
-
(2018-08-27)Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is an extrusion based additive manufacturing methodology. During the manufacturing process, a thread of thermoplastic material is melted through the extruder and solidified on the building ...
-
(2017-04-27)In reservoir management, it is challenging to obtain an efficient production schedule and maximize the profits. An optimization workflow is usually used in maximizing/minimizing the production objective. However, production ...
-
(2019-08-29)The main objective of this dissertation is to develop and deploy and test explicit model predictive control feedback strategy on hydrogen systems using the PARametric Optimization and Control framework (PAROC). In line ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)Optimization of individual processing units as well as the energy systems has become common place in the processing industries (Ref. 1,2). Typically such optimizations are done piecemeal, with heavy reliance on ...
-
(2014-04-04)Construction project scheduling is one of the most important tools for project managers in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. The Construction schedules allow project managers to track and ...
-
(2013-01-09)Designers of power electronic converters usually face the challenge of having multiple performance indices that must be simultaneously optimized, such as maximizing efficiency while minimizing mass or maximizing reliability ...
-
(2012-10-19)The United States international land boundary is a volatile, security intense area. In 2010, the combined trade was $918 billion within North American nations, with 80% transported by commercial trucks. Over 50 million ...
-
(2015-08-06)The Capacitance Resistance Model (CRM) is a fast way for modeling and simulating gas and water flooding recovery processes, making it a great tool for improving flood management in real time. CRM is an input-output and ...
