  2. 16. Dynamic Resampling for Preference-based Evolutionary Multi-objective Optimization of Stochastic Systems : Improving the efficiency of time-constrained optimization

    Author : Florian Siegmund; Kalyanmoy Deb; Amos H.C. Ng; Sanaz Mostaghim; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Evolutionary multi-objective optimization; simulation-based optimization; guided search; preference-based optimization; reference point; decision support; noise; stochastic systems; dynamic resampling; budget allocation; sequential sampling; hybrid; ranking and selection; Natural sciences; Naturvetenskap; Technology; Teknik; Production and Automation Engineering; Produktion och automatiseringsteknik;

    Abstract : In preference-based Evolutionary Multi-objective Optimization (EMO), the decision maker is looking for a diverse, but locally focused non-dominated front in a preferred area of the objective space, as close as possible to the true Pareto-front. Since solutions found outside the area of interest are considered less important or even irrelevant, the optimization can focus its efforts on the preferred area and find the solutions that the decision maker is looking for more quickly, i.

  4. 17. Decarbonising the Stainless Steelmaking through Alloy Solutions

    Author : Wenjing Wei; Pär Jönsson; Peter Samuelsson; Birat Jean Pierre; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; stainless steel; optimization; raw material; process; quality; decarbonisation; rostfritt stål; optimering; material; process; kvalitet; avkarbonisering; Materials Science and Engineering; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : To reach the goal of the Paris Agreement, the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG)is becoming one of the most pressing issues in the world today. Unlike most other sectors, thestainless steel industry has a significantly higher burden from upstream emissions comparedto operational emissions. READ MORE

  5. 18. Energy systems analysis of Swedish pulp and paper industries from a regional cooperation perspective : Case study modeling and optimization

    Author : Sofia Klugman; Bahram Moshfegh; Thore Berntsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industrial energy system; Optimization; District heating; Energy audit; Co-operation; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The industrial sector uses about one third of the energy end-use in the world. Since energy use in many cases highly affects both the local and global environment negatively, it is of common interest to increase energy efficiency within industries. READ MORE

  6. 19. Theoretical Optimization of Compressive Crushing

    Author : Elisabeth Lee; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy Consumption; Fitness Function; Genetic Evolutionary Algorithms; Crushing Pressure; Optimization; Product Yield; Compressive Crushing;

    Abstract : Surrounded by products made from crushed rock materials in all corners of society, most people do not spend much time thinking about when, where, or how these are produced. In fact, most people take the supply and availability of products made from crushed rock materials for granted. READ MORE

  7. 20. Modeling and Simulation of a Multi Phase Semi-batch Reactor

    Author : Anna Nyström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; semi-batch reactor; modeling; simulation; optimization; simulation;

    Abstract : The operation of an industrial semi-batch reactor is modeled and the flow of one reactant is investigated. In the reactor a strongly exothermic polymerization reaction takes place followed by a slightly exothermic reaction, and the objective is to minimize the duration of the operation of the process.
