  2. 1. Short Term Scheduling of Hydrothermal Power Systems With Integer Hydro Constraints

    Author : Nilsson Olof; Lennart Söder; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hydro power; Optimization; Integer Constraints; Lagrange relaxation; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The thesis presents models for short term planning (24 hours) of a hyro dominated hydrothermal power system. The purpose of the models is to minimizae the system operation costs to provide a forecasted load and keep enough spinning reserve... READ MORE

  4. 2. Decomposition Methods for Combinatorial Optimization

    Author : Uledi Ngulo; Torbjörn Larsson; Nils-Hassan Quttineh; Egbert Mujuni; Athanasios Migdalas; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis aims at research in the field of combinatorial optimization. Problems within this field often posses special structures allowing them to be decomposed into more easily solved subproblems, which can be exploited in solution methods. These structures appear frequently in applications. READ MORE

  5. 3. Convex Optimization for Assignment and Generalized Linear Regression Problems

    Author : Efthymios Tsakonas; Björn Ottersten; Ami Wiesel; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis considers optimization techniques with applications in assignment and generalized linear regression problems. The first part of the thesis investigates the worst-case robust counterparts of combinatorial optimization problems with least squares (LS) cost functions, where the uncertainty lies on the linear transformation of the design variables.

  6. 4. Computation of Autonomous Safety Maneuvers Using Segmentation and Optimization

    Author : Pavel Anistratov; Lars Nielsen; Björn Olofsson; Jan Åslund; Jonas Fredriksson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis studies motion planning for future autonomous vehicles with main focus on passenger cars. By having automatic steering and braking together with information about the environment, such as other participants in the traffic or obstacles, it would be possible to perform autonomous maneuvers while taking limitations of the vehicle and road–tire interaction into account.

  7. 5. Optimization heuristic solutions, how good can they be? : With empirical applications in location problems

    Author : Xiangli Meng; Kenneth Carling; Christoph Flath; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Complex Systems – Microdata Analysis; Komplexa system - mikrodataanalys;

    Abstract : Combinatorial optimization problems, are one of the most important types of problems in operational research. Heuristic and metaheuristics algorithms are widely applied to find a good solution. READ MORE
