A Global Optimization Algorithm for Signomial Geometric Programming Problem

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
This paper presents a global optimization algorithm for solving the signomial geometric programming (SGP) problem. In the algorithm, by the straight forward algebraic manipulation of terms and by utilizing a transformation of variables, the initial ...

Accounting for animal health in efficiency analysis: An application to Swedish dairy farms

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Poor animal health is a central concern in modern livestock production. Despite the necessity to incorporate animal health in efficiency analysis, the theoretical and empirical developments are limited on this subject. This article appropriately characterizes the axiomatic properties of animal health within a production framework.

Optimizing Household Waste Recycling Centre Network Reorganization in Hampshire

open access: yesNetworks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Local councils across the UK are facing sustained financial pressures, and Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) are being increasingly considered for closure to reduce expenditure. In 2024, Hampshire County Council, which operates the largest HWRC network in the UK, proposed closing either five or twelve existing sites.

Novel Model for The Energy Minimisation of Natural Gas Transmission Networks

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2017
Natural gas transmission through an extensive pipeline network is an energy consuming process required gas compression due to significant pressure drop. The main difficulties in optimising a natural gas transmission network are the nonconvexities of the ...

Control Design Based on Generalized Lur'e Lyapunov Functions for Sampled‐Data Lur'e Systems

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article addresses the synthesis of stabilizing control laws for aperiodic sampled‐data Lur'e systems. Based on a hybrid system representation of the closed‐loop system and a timer‐dependent generalized Lur'e–Postnikov type Lyapunov function, stabilization conditions are obtained by separating decision variables with the application of two

Enhancing Drone Light Shows Performances: Optimal Allocation and Trajectories for Swarm Drone Formations

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drone light shows (DLShows) represent a rapidly growing application of swarm robotics, creating captivating aerial displays through the synchronized flight of hundreds or thousands of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as environmentally friendly and reusable alternatives to traditional pyrotechnics.

Spectral Efficiency of Full-Duplex Multi-user System: Beamforming Design, User Grouping, and Time Allocation

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2017
Full-duplex (FD) systems have emerged as an essential enabling technology to further increase the data rate of wireless communication systems. The key idea of FD is to serve multiple users over the same bandwidth with a base station (BS) that can ...

Routing and Downlink Resource Allocation for Multicast Traffic in LEO Satellite Constellations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this work, we optimize unicast and multicast traffic delivery over non‐terrestrial networks (NTNs) to users on the ground through direct satellite downlink (DL). We consider a gateway‐free mesh architecture with low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites interconnected via inter‐satellite links (ISLs), where unicast and multicast services compete for

A Detailed and Comprehensive Account of Fractional Physics‐Informed Neural Networks: From Implementation to Efficiency

open access: yesArtificial Intelligence for Engineering, EarlyView.
Caputo‐based fPINNs accurately solve fractional ODEs and PDEs while exposing an accuracy–cost trade‐off driven by the history‐dependent fractional derivative. Temporal collocation and shorter time windows are the most effective strategies for improving early‐time accuracy without unnecessary spatial refinement.
