Abstract:
This paper presents a multi-objective optimisation (MOO) tool for urban drainage management that is based on a 1D2D coupled model of SWMM5 (1D sub-surface flow model) and BreZo (2D surface flow model). This coupled model is linked with NSGA-II, which is an Evolutionary Algorithm-based optimiser. Previously the combination of a surface/sub-surface flow model and evolutionary optimisation has been considered to be infeasible due to the computational demands. The 1D2D coupled model used here shows a computational efficiency that is acceptable for optimisation. This technological advance is the re

Abstract:
Abstract Optimisation of complex systems frequently requires evaluating a computationally expensive high-fidelity function to estimate a system metric of interest. Although design sensitivities may be available through either direct or adjoint methods, the use of formal optimisation methods may remain too costly. Incorporating low-fidelity performance estimates can substantially reduce the cost of the high-fidelity optimisation. In this paper we present a provably convergent multifidelity optimisation method that uses Cokriging Bayesian model calibration and first-order consistent trust region

Model Predictive Control (MPC) algorithms typically use the classical L2 cost function, which minimises squared differences of predicted control errors. Such an approach has good numerical properties, but the L1 norm that measures absolute values of the control errors gives better control quality. If a nonlinear model is used for prediction, the L1 norm leads to a difficult, nonlinear, possibly non-differentiable cost function. A computationally efficient alternative is discussed in this work.

WEC developers usually go through the the TdA approach because more detailed cost data are not available at an earlier design stage.

Abstract:
In project management, there are two main operation problems. Scheduling and cost optimisation. These are interrelated and have mathematically proven solutions for the basics. However, in case of applying arbitrary calendars, there may be generated such effects in scheduling that make the known time-cost trade-off model unusable. In consideration of these effects, this paper aims to apply known algorithms that have been successful for other problems.

Abstract:
An ASM2da model of the full-scale waste water plant of Bree (Belgium) has been made. It showed very good correlation with reference operational data. This basic model has been extended to include an accurate calculation of environmental footprint and operational costs (energy consumption, dosing of chemicals and sludge treatment). Two optimisation strategies were compared: lowest cost meeting the effluent consent versus lowest environmental footprint. Six optimisation scenarios have been studied, namely (i) implementation of an online control system based on ammonium and nitrate sensors, (ii)

Abstract:
Large-scale wind power grid integration will greatly change the system current distribution, making it difficult for the reactive power regulator to adjust to the optimal state. In this paper, an integrated reactive power optimisation method based on the improved Harris Hawk (HHO) algorithm is proposed. Firstly, a reactive power regulation model is constructed to solve the reactive power regulation interval of wind turbines, and the reactive power margin of wind turbines is used to participate in the system’s reactive power optimisation. Finally, a reactive power compensation capacity allocati

Abstract:
Accessing the demand-side management potential of the residential heating sector requires sophisticated control capable of predicting buildings’ response to changes in heating and cooling power, e.g., model-predictive control. However, while studies exploring its impacts both for individual buildings as well as energy markets exist, building-level control in large-scale energy system models has not been properly examined. In this work, we demonstrate the feasibility of the open-source energy system modelling framework Backbone for simplified model-predictive control of buildings, helping addre

Abstract:
This research aims to model and optimise the most applicable supply chain system, which is a single-vendor single-buyer system with fuzzy buyer demand. An optimisation model of the supply chain system under consideration is built by formulating the objective function, which is minimising the joint total cost between a buyer and a vendor. The model is developed on the basis of a simulation system, and optimisation is carried out by utilising a Genetic Algorithm that has been embedded in the simulation system. This technique is called optimisation–simulation closed loop. The vendor actual condit

The choice of correct inspection intervals poses a serious challenge to industries that utilise physical assets. Too short an interval increases operational cost and waste production time while too long an interval increases the likelihood of unexpected asset failures. Failure Modes and Effect Criticality Analysis (FMECA) is a technique that permits qualitative evaluation of assets' functions to predict critical failure modes and the resultant consequences to determine appropriate maintenance tasks for the assets.

The smart grid (SG) is a contemporary electrical network that enhances the network’s performance, reliability, stability, and energy efficiency. The integration of cloud and fog computing with SG can increase its efficiency. The combination of SG with cloud computing enhances resource allocation. To minimise the burden on the Cloud and optimise resource allocation, the concept of fog computing integration with cloud computing is presented. Fog has three essential functionalities: location awareness, low latency, and mobility. We offer a cloud and fog-based architecture for information manageme

The purpose of this research is to demonstrate the eventuality of using an adaptive surrogate model for optimisation problems. The adaptive surrogate model is built on an adaptive sampling approach and an extended radial basis function (ERBF). The adaptive sampling is an approach tha

Abstract:
Achieving an optimal operating cost is a challenge for the development of hybrid tramways. In the past few years, in addition to fuel costs, the lifespan of the power source is being increasingly considered as an important factor that influences the operating cost of a tramway. In this work, an optimal energy management strategy based on a multi-mode strategy and optimisation algorithm is described for a high-power fuel cell hybrid tramway. The objective of optimisation is to decrease the operating costs under the conditions of guaranteeing tramway performance. Besides the fuel costs, the repl
