There are many methods to determine performance of a scheduling algorithm, many of which rely on comparison to already established standards. Based on Taguchi’s quality loss function formulation that was developed for the manufacturing industry, four general quality loss functions are presented.

In order to maximize the e ciency of power generation in concentrated solar power systems (CSP) it is de- sired to achieve as high a tempera- ture in the receiver as possible due to the use of the Sterling cycle to gen- erate power.

In this dissertation topics of optimal meter placement and transaction-based loss allocation in deregulated power system operation are investigated. Firstly, Chapter II introduces the basic idea of candidate measurement identification, which is the selection of candidate measurement sets, each of which will make the system observable under a given contingency (loss of measurements and network topology changes). A new method is then developed for optimal meter placement, which is the choice of the optimal combination out of the selected candidate measurement sets in order to ensure the entire

Abstract:
This research proposes a new signal operation strategy aimed at efficient utilization of green time by cutting down on the start up and response loss times. The idea is to have a "pre-signal" on each main approach a few hundred feet upstream of the intersection in addition to the main intersection signal, which is coordinated with the pre-signal. The offset between the main and pre-signal ensures that the majority of start up losses does not occur at the main signal.

It is shown that the relationship between an impedance change and the dynamic response of a linear system is in the form of the Moebius transformation. The Moebius transformation is a conformal complex transformation that maps straight lines and circles in one complex plane into straight lines and circles in another complex plane. The center and radius of the mapped circle can be predicted provided that all the complex coefficients are known.

Noise generated by fluid power applications can be treated using bladder-style suppressors, and an optimal operating condition for these devices is sought in this thesis. Bladder-style suppressors employ a compliant nitrogen-charged bladder to create an impedance change within the system, reflecting the noise back to the source and preventing it from propagating downstream. The noise in a hydraulic system is created by a pump, the flow source in a hydraulic system, and can be separated into three categories: fluid-borne noise, structure-borne noise and airborne noise.

Abstract:
A reconfiguração de redes de distribuição de energia elétrica consiste em alterar sua topologia por meio de manobras de chaves nos circuitos primários. Trata-se de um problema de otimização combinatória, onde normalmente os objetivos são a minimização de perdas ativas e/ou número de manobras realizadas, atendendo as restrições como isolamento de faltas, balanceamento de cargas entre os alimentadores e melhoria dos níveis de tensão. As dificuldades na modelagem e na resolução exata de problemas envolvendo a reconfiguração de redes de distribuição advém do tamanho dos sistemas reais, representad

Abstract:
Este trabalho apresenta um modelo linearizado para ser utilizado em problemas de planejamento da expansão de sistemas de distribuição de energia elétrica (SDEE) com geração distribuída (GD), em um horizonte de curto prazo. O ponto de operação em regime permanente é calculado através de um modelo linearizado da rede, sendo as cargas e geradores representados por injeções constantes de corrente, o que torna possível calcular as correntes nos ramos e as tensões nas barras através de expressões lineares. As alternativas de expansão consideradas são: (i) alocação de bancos de capacitores; (ii) aloc

Abstract:
Determination of the placement and rating of transformers and feeders are the main objective of the basic distribution network planning. The bus voltage and the feeder current are two constraints which should be maintained within their standard range. The distribution network planning is hardened when the planning area is located far from the sources of power generation and the infrastructure. This is mainly as a consequence of the voltage drop, line loss and system reliability. Long distance to supply loads causes a significant amount of voltage drop across the distribution lines. Capacitors

Abstract:
[EN] This Thesis is focused on the development and implementation of efficient numerical methods for the acoustic modelling and design of noise control devices in the exhaust system of combustion engines. Special attention is paid to automotive perforated dissipative silencers, in which significant differences are likely to appear in their acoustic behaviour, depending on the temperature variations within the absorbent material. Also, material heterogeneities can alter the silencer attenuation performance. Therefore, numerical techniques considering all these features are required to guarantee
