Comparative analysis of multi-criteria decision making methods for the assessment of optimal SVC location [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences: Technical Sciences, 2022
The goal of multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) is to select the most appropriate of the alternatives by evaluating many conflicting criteria together.

Optimal Geo-Indistinguishable Mechanisms for Location Privacy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We consider the geo-indistinguishability approach to location privacy, and the trade-off with respect to utility. We show that, given a desired degree of geo-indistinguishability, it is possible to construct a mechanism that minimizes the service quality

Optimal Jammer Placement in Wireless Localization Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this study, the optimal jammer placement problem is proposed and analyzed for wireless localization systems. In particular, the optimal location of a jammer node is obtained by maximizing the minimum of the Cramer-Rao lower bounds (CRLBs) for a number

Quantized Control via Locational Optimization [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2006
This paper studies state quantization schemes for feedback stabilization of control systems with limited information. The focus is on designing the least destabilizing quantizer subject to a given information constraint. We explore several ways of measuring the destabilizing effect of a quantizer on the closed-loop system, including (but not limited to)

On Optimal Location with Threshold Requirements [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 1998
The optimal location of services is one of the most important factors that affects service quality in terms of consumer access. On theother hand, services in general need to have a minimum catchment area so as to be efficient. In this paper a model is presented that locates the maximum number of services that can coexist in a given region without ...

Optimal location of static var compensator device for damping oscillations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Problem statement: Static Var Compensators (SVC) devices are used to improve voltage and reactive power conditions in AC systems. An additional task of SVC is to increase transmission capacity as result of power oscillation damping.

Noise Source Location Optimization [PDF]

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 1994
This article describes a method to determine locations of noise sources that minimize modal coupling in complex acoustic volumes. Using the acoustic source scattering capabilities of the boundary element method, predictions are made of mode shape and pressure levels due to various source locations.

The influence of notch connection location on the short-term behaviour of timber-concrete composite beams, modelling of TCC beams and research for optimal locations, a numerical study

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2023
Timber-concrete composite beams, known as TCC beams, have been widely used in rehabilitation or in new buildings where several types of connections are commonly inserted to ensure partial composite action between the timber joist and the concrete slab ...
