  1. 1. On optimal mission planning for conventional and electric heavy duty vehicles

    Author : Ahad Hamednia; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Logistics planning; Transport efficiency; Mission planning; Optimal control; Eco-driving; Model predictive control;

    Abstract : Ever-growing energy consumption and CO2 emissions due to the increase in road transport are major challenges that attract international attention, especially policy makers, logistic service providers and customers considering environmental, ecological and economic issues. Other negative side-effects caused by the growth of the road transport are the extensive economic and social costs because of traffic congestion. READ MORE

  2. 2. On maintenance optimization for offshore wind farms

    Author : Francois Besnard; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; life cycle cost; optimization; maintenance; maintenance planning; Offshore wind energy; maintenance strategy; maintenance support organization; reliability;

    Abstract : The maintenance cost is known to be an important part of the levelized cost of energy generated by wind parks. Operational costs can be significantly reduced by optimizing decisions for maintenance strategies, maintenance support organization and maintenance planning. READ MORE

  4. 4. A Systems View of Advancements in Biomass Supply Chains

    Author : Johanna Enström; Aron Larsson; Leif Olsson; Lars Eliasson; Anders Eriksson; Daniel Nilsson; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Forestry logistics; Supply Chain Management; Discrete Event Simulation; Forest fuel;

    Abstract : Forest fuel is an important source of energy with potential for increased use in the Nordic countries. Profitable forest operations are dependent on logistics as the forest is a natural resource with varying conditions over widespread areas. READ MORE

  5. 5. A contribution to population dynamics in space

    Author : Nikias Sarafoglou; Å.E. Andersson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Population growth; population age structure; migration; labour market; housing market; production function; stochastic differential equations; partial differential equations;

    Abstract : Population models are very often used and considered useful in the policy-making process and for planning purposes. In this research I have tried to illuminate the problem of analysing population evolution in space by using three models which cover a wide spectrum of complementary methodologies:a The Hotell.
