2. 1. Methods for Constrained Optimisation of Propellers

   Author : Florian Vesting; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cavitation; constrained optimisation; genetic algorithm; propeller geometry; response surface methodology; propeller hull interaction; Kriging; artificial neural network; RANS;

   Abstract : Global market development, increasing environmental concerns and incessant risingfuel prices demand for high-grade efficient propulsion systems. This puts high pressureon the propeller designer to develop well-engineered and customized propellerdesign in a short timeframe. READ MORE

4. 2. Marine Propeller Optimisation - Strategy and Algorithm Development

   Author : Florian Vesting; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cavitation; artificial neural network; RANS; Kriging; potential flow; genetic algorithm; constrained optimisation; PSO; marine propeller;

   Abstract : Recent trends in the shipping industry, e.g., expanded routing in ecologically sensitive areas and emission regulations, have sharpened the perception of efficient propeller designs. Currently, propeller efficiency, estimated fuel consumption and, more often, propeller-radiated noise are parameters that steer the business Zeitgeist. READ MORE

5. 3. Advancing the life cycle energy optimisation methodology

   Author : Hamza Bouchouireb; Ciarán J. O'Reilly; Peter Göransson; Rupert J. Baumgartner; José Potting; Tracy Bhamra; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; life cycle energy; vehicle design; optimisation; functional conflicts; livscykelenergi; fordonsdesign; optimering; tvär-funktionella konflikter; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

   Abstract : The Life Cycle Energy Optimisation (LCEO) methodology aims at finding a design solution that uses a minimum amount of cumulative energy demand over the different phases of the vehicle's life cycle, while complying with a set of functional constraints. This effectively balances trade-offs, and therewith avoids sub-optimal shifting between the energy demand for the cradle-to-production of materials, operation of the vehicle, and end-of-life phases.

6. 4. Utility-based Optimisation of Resource Allocation for Wireless Networks

   Author : Calin Curescu; Simin Nadjm-Tehrani; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : wireless networks; QoS; utility price-based bandwidth; allocation optimisation; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

   Abstract : From providing only voice communications, wireless networks aim to provide a wide range of services in which soft real-time, high priority critical data, and best effort connections seamlessly integrate. Some of these applications and services have firm resource requirements in order to function properly (e.g. READ MORE

7. 5. Constraint Programming for Wireless Sensor Networks

   Author : Farshid Hassani Bijarbooneh; Justin Pearson; Pierre Flener; Edith Ngai; Ken Brown; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Constraint programming; wireless sensor networks; optimisation; macroprogramming; task mapping; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot datorkommunikation; Computer Science with specialization in Computer Communication;

   Abstract : In recent years, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have grown rapidly and have had a substantial impact in many applications. A WSN is a network that consists of interconnected autonomous nodes that monitor physical and environmental conditions, such as temperature, humidity, pollution, etc. READ MORE
