OPTIMAL MULTI-CRITERIA AEROASSISTED ORBITAL TRANSFER TRAJECTORIES
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1994Abstract Single and multiple atmospheric pass aeroassisted orbital transfers for three representative AOTV configurations on a geostationary to space station orbit transfer mission are investigated using multi-criteria trajectory optimization. The fuel optimal results indicate that independent of the vehicle type, the maximum heat flux is reduced by ...

Stepwise multi‐criteria optimization for robotic radiosurgery
Medical Physics, 2008Achieving good conformality and a steep dose gradient around the target volume remains a key aspect of radiosurgery. Clearly, this involves a trade‐off between target coverage, conformality of the dose distribution, and sparing of critical structures.

Dose–volume objectives in multi-criteria optimization
Physics in Medicine and Biology, 2006Unlike conventional optimization with dose-volume (DV) constraints, multi-criteria optimization (MCO) with DV objectives provides tradeoff information which we believe is necessary for choosing better treatment plans. We show that the MCO formulation with DV objectives is better suited to convex approximation than conventional formulations with DV ...

Optimal System Design with Multi-criteria Approach
Global business & economics review. Anthology, 2006This paper presents the use of multi-criteria approach in designing the optimal production system. Multiple criteria and De Novo programming will be combined in a production model. Moreover, it will be applied in a real production system which produces various ferroalloys using a number of different raw materials.

Multi-Criteria Optimization of Bridge Management
Advanced Materials Research, 2011Optimizing investment funding levels and combinations of treatment types and timings, as an aid to management decision making, are vital functions of any bridge management system (BMS). Bridge management is always involved the bridge performance assessment which is essentially a multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) problem, which involves multiple ...

A robust multi-criteria optimization approach
Mechanism and Machine Theory, 1997The overall value of a product is typically determined by its performance with respect to multiple measures. As such, the product design task will be simplified if all these performance measures were optimized simultaneously. Another significant factor that determines product quality is its sensitivity to external or uncontrollable variations.

Multi-criteria optimization of cutting processes
Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 1992Abstract Determination of the optimal values of the cutting process parameters is an important task in computerized machinability data systems. Usually these parameters have to be decided with respect to several criteria, taken simultaneously. This paper discusses a multi-criteria optimization model that considers three variables: cutting speed, feed

Multi-criteria optimization of maintenance activities
22nd International Conference and Exhibition on Electricity Distribution (CIRED 2013), 2013An important task of the asset management process is the evaluation of the long-range investment and resource planning of the assets of the complete power system. The main problem of the asset manager is to reduce the maintenance costs under the condition to keep the availability of the system on a high level.
