2. 26. Languages and Tools for Optimization of Large-Scale Systems

   Author : Johan Åkesson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Paper Machine Modeling; Plate Reactor; Languages for Physical Modeling; Compiler Construction; Dynamic Optimization; Modelica; Optimica; Manual Control; Automation; robotics; control engineering; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

   Abstract : Modeling and simulation are established techniques for solving design problems in a wide range of engineering disciplines today. Dedicated computer languages, such as Modelica, and efficient software tools are available. In this thesis, an extension of Modelica, Optimica, targeted at dynamic optimization of Modelica models is proposed. READ MORE

4. 27. Simulations of human movements through temporal discretization and optimization

   Author : Manindra Kaphle; Anders Eriksson; Kjartan Halvorsen; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Forward dynamics; Biomechanics; Temporal discretization; Optimization; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

   Abstract : Study of physical phenomena by means of mathematical models is common in various branches of engineering and science. In biomechanics, modelling often involves studying human motion by treating the body as a mechanical system made of interconnected rigid links. READ MORE

5. 28. Mathematical Models and Algorithms for Wireless Network Design and Optimization

   Author : Yuan Li; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; max-min flow; directional antenna; optimization; integer programming; cellular backhaul network design; delay minimization; SINR; compatible set;

   Abstract : Optimization techniques always play an important role in designing high-performance wireless systems. This presented thesis studies a selected set of optimization problems for different kinds of wireless networks, making use of mathematical programming techniques to find optimal solutions and of efficient heuristics to find near-optimal solutions.

6. 29. Coordination of Heavy-Duty Vehicle Platooning

   Author : Sebastian van de Hoef; Dimos V. Dimarogonas; Simona Sacone; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; road freight transport; optimization; optimal control; automatic control; fuel-efficiency; match-making; off-board; intelligent transport systems; automated driving; clustering; scheduling; cooperative; large-scale; dynamic programming; trucks; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : A network-wide coordination system for heavy-duty vehicle platooning with the purpose of reducing fuel consumption is developed. Road freight is by far the dominating mode for overland transport with over 60 % modal share in the OECD countries and is thus critically important for the economy.

7. 30. Computational Methods in Conceptual Structural Design

   Author : Vedad Alic; Byggnadsmekanik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; conceptual design; conceptual structural design; ground-borne vibrations; form finding; optimization; dynamic relaxation; graphic statics; reciprocal figures; strut-and-tie; finite element method; isogeometric analysis; NURBS; CAD; numerical modelling;

   Abstract : Conceptual design is the first phase in the design process in which all the requirements and design objectives are synthesized into conceptual alternatives. In practice today, major decisions regarding the buildings function, massing, and overall form are usually made during the first phase. READ MORE
