Abstract:

Abstract. Land use models operating at regional to global scales are almost exclusively based on the single paradigm of economic optimisation. Models based on different paradigms are known to produce very different results, but these are not always equivalent or attributable to particular assumptions. In this study, we compare two pan-European integrated land use models that utilise the same climatic and socio-economic scenarios but which adopt fundamentally different modelling paradigms. One of these is a constrained optimising economic-equilibrium model, and the other is a stochastic agent-b

Abstract:

Land use and land cover changes driven by urban sprawl has accelerated the degradation of ecosystem services in metropolitan settlements. However, most optimisation techniques do not consider the dynamic effect of urban sprawl on the spatial criteria on which decisions are based. In addition, integrating the current simulation approach with land use optimisation approaches to make a sustainable decision regarding the suitable site encompasses complex processes. Thus, this study aims to innovate a novel technique that can predict urban sprawl for a long time and can be simply integrated with op

Abstract:

The increase in global electricity demand, along with its impact on climate change, call for integrating sustainability aspects in the power system expansion planning. Sustainable power generation planning needs to fulfill different, often contradictory, objectives. This paper proposes a multi-objective optimisation model integrating four objective functions, including minimisation of total discounted costs, carbon emissions, land use, and social opposition. Other factors addressed in the model include renewable energy share, jobs created, mortality rates, and energy diversity, among others. S

Abstract Due to the recent climate changes such as floods and droughts, there is a need for Land Use Land Cover (LULC) mapping to monitor environmental changes that have effects on ecology, policy management, health and disaster management. As such, in this study, two well-known machine learning classifiers, namely, Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Random Forest (RF), are used for land cover mapping. In addition, two advanced deep learning algorithms, namely, the GAMLP and FSMLP, that are based on the Multi-layer Perceptron (MLP) function are developed in MATLAB programming language. The GAMLP

Abstract:

AbstractModels are essential to assess the socio-economic credentials of new agroforestry systems. In this study, we showcase robust optimisation as a tool to evaluate agroforestry’s potential to meet farmers’ multiple goals. Our modelling approach has three parts. First, we use a discrete land-use model to evaluate two agroforestry systems (alley cropping and silvopasture) and conventional land uses against five socio-economic objectives, focusing on the forest frontier in eastern Panama. Next, we couple the land-use model with robust optimisation, to determine the mix of land uses (farm port

Abstract:

Many cities around the world are facing immense pressure due to the expediting growth rates in urban population levels. The notion of ‘smart cities’ has been proposed as a solution to enhance the sustainability of cities through effective urban management of governance, energy and transportation. The research presented herein examines the applicability of a mathematical framework to enhance the sustainability of decisions involved in zoning, land-use allocation and facility location within smart cities. In particular, a mathematical optimisation framework is proposed, which links through with

However, there can be large variation in the biomass yield within those tracts, losing useful information.

Simple blade-blade simulations run at near interactive rates but anything involving complex geometry — like turbine cooling — turns around too slowly to participate in realistic design cycles; this is mostly due to the difficulty of modifying and meshing the geometry. Simulations for complex geometries are run afterwards as a check — rather than at the critical conceptual design phase.
