  2. 1. Coordinated Multi-Stage Inventory Systems with Stochastic Demand

    Author : Jonas Andersson; Teknisk logistik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Management of enterprises; Produktionsteknik; Production technology; Nash Equilibria; Multi-Echelon; Coordination; Stochastic; Supply Chain; Inventory Control; Företagsledning; management;

    Abstract : This thesis is based on six scientific papers providing different methods for coordinated inventory control in supply chains. The main focus is on supply chains in connection with distribution of products to customers. Two different problem areas are considered. READ MORE

  4. 2. Demand Flexibility for the Simultaneous Provision of Multiple Services : Tapping the Potential of Controllable Electric Loads for Frequency Reserves and Energy Arbitrage

    Author : Lars Herre; Lennart Söder; Qiuwei Wu; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; aggregator; chance constrained optimisation; demand response; de-mand response provider; demand side management; frequency reserves; load control; stochastic optimization; aggregator; riskbegränsad optimering; efterfrågestyrning; leverantör av efterfrågesvar; efterfrågeflexibilitet; frekvensreserver; laststyrning; stokastisk optimering.; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Power systems with increasing shares of renewable energy sources require sufficient flexibility sources. One source of flexibility for future power systems is constituted by flexible electric loads. The concept of demand response captures the utilization of demand side flexibility to provide services to the power system. READ MORE

  5. 3. Exact Methods for Multi-echelon Inventory Control : Incorporating Shipment Decisions and Detailed Demand Information

    Author : Olof Stenius; Produktionsekonomi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Inventory; Multi-echelon; Stochastic; Shipment decisions; Detailed demand information;

    Abstract : Recent advances in information technologies and an increased environmental awareness have altered the prerequisites for successful logistics. For companies operating on a global market, inventory control of distribution systems is often an essential part of their logistics planning. READ MORE

  6. 4. Uncertain demand prediction for guaranteed automated vehicle fleet performance

    Author : Sten Elling Tingstad Jacobsen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mobility-on-Demand; Travel Demand Uncertainty; Energy Efficiency; Chance Constraint Optimization; Gaussian Process Regression; Stochastic Model Predictive Control; Fleet Opti- mization;

    Abstract : Mobility-on-demand (MoD) services offer a convenient and efficient transportation option, using technology to replace traditional modes. However, the flexibility of MoD services also presents challenges in controlling the system. One of the major issues is supply-demand imbalance, caused by uneven stochastic travel demand. READ MORE

  7. 5. Essays on energy efficiency, environmental regulation and labor demand in Swedish industry

    Author : Golnaz Amjadi; Lars Persson; Tommy Lundgren; Luis Orea; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Energy efficiency improvement; rebound effect; stochastic frontier analysis; data envelopment analysis; stochastic energy demand frontier model; persistent and transient energy inefficiency; energy inefficiency; environmental expenditure and environmental investment costs; output demand elasticity; Economics; nationalekonomi;

    Abstract : Paper [I] Energy efficiency improvement (EEI) benefits the climate and matters for energy security. The potential emission and energy savings due to EEI may however not fully materialize due to the rebound effect. READ MORE
