Optimal Monitoring Design [PDF]

open access: yesEconometrica, 2020
This paper considers a Principal–Agent model with hidden action in which the Principal can monitor the Agent by acquiring independent signals conditional on effort at a constant marginal cost. The Principal aims to implement a target effort level at minimal cost. The main result of the paper is that the optimal information‐acquisition strategy is a two‐

Caffeic Acid: Potential Applications in Nanotechnology as a Green Reducing Agent for Sustainable Synthesis of Gold Nanoparticles

open access: yesNatural Product Communications, 2015
The sustainable synthesis of gold nanoparticles from gold ions was conducted with caffeic acid as a green reducing agent. The formation of gold nanoparticles was confirmed by spectroscopic and microscopic methods.

Optimal design of injection mold for plastic bonded magnet [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
The optimal design of an injection mold for producing a stronger multipole magnet is carried out using the finite element method and the direct search method. It is shown that the maximum flux density in the cavity obtained by the optimal design is about

Optimal Design of a New Cascaded Multilevel Inverter Topology With Reduced Switch Count

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Multilevel inverters (MLIs) are a great development for industrial and renewable energy applications due to their dominance over conventional two-level inverter with respect to size, rating of switches, filter requirement, and efficiency.

Optimal Market Design [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2010
This paper introduces three methodological advances to study the optimal design of static and dynamic markets. First, we apply a mechanism design approach to characterize all incentive-compatible market equilibria. Second, we conduct a normative analysis, i.e. we evaluate alternative competition and innovation policies from a welfare perspective. Third,

Influence of geometric variables on spur gear volume

open access: yesInternational Journal for Simulation and Multidisciplinary Design Optimization, 2020
Gear system optimization is currently topical amongst researchers. To this end, problem formulation is key and therefore knowledge of parameter influence and variation behaviour is indispensable.

Reinforcement solution of damaged load-bearing frame structure in a coal power plant for additional loads [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Civil Engineering
Significant subsoil deformation and additional loads from the new denitrification unit caused a major problem with the load-bearing capacity of the coal power plant.

Optimal experimental design for optimal process design: A trilevel optimization formulation

open access: yesAIChE Journal, 2019
AbstractTypical optimal experimental design (OED) methods aim at minimizing the covariance matrix of the estimated parameters regardless of the intended application of the model that is being estimated. This can unnecessarily increase the experimental costs.

Optimal Design of Experiments in the Presence of Interference

open access: yesReview of Economics and Statistics, 2018
We formalize the optimal design of experiments when there is interference between units, that is, an individual’s outcome depends on the outcomes of others in her group.

A-optimal design matrices

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 1984
The tools in search of A-optimal designs are listed and the authors derive A-optimal chemical balance weighing designs (that is, \(N\times n\) matrices with elements 1, -1 and 0) for \(N\geq 7\), \(n\leq 6\).
