The Optimal Speed of Ships

Journal of Navigation, 1979
The following paper was presented at a meeting of the Institute held in London on 21 February 1979 with the President, Captain R. Maybourn, in the Chair. It considers some of the factors which apply in the context of overall safety and the weightings which they should be assigned in estimating the optimal speed for ships in given circumstances and ...

Speed Optimizations for Fermilab MULTI

IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 1981
Although the Fermilab MULTI event analysis program basic processing loop is capable of 400 Hz operation, analysis of real data causes the program to rapidly bog down, in our case to the range of 10 to 20 Hz. There are a number of factors causing this effect; operation of the "live" display, interpretation of "evaluation" statements and the speed at ...

Optimal flight speed of birds

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 1995
The speed of birds in flapping flight is a behavioural attribute that, when interpreted in the light of optimization theory, may provide important implications about the limitations in time, energy and safety that affect birds in different situations.

Optimizing process speed and efficiency

World Pumps, 2011
Jeremy Salisbury shows how ensuring that a process pump operates at optimum speed and efficiency is key to maintaining productivity, reducing energy consumption and maximizing product life. He examines the technologies available to optimize operation and reliability, and the paybacks achievable through investment in appropriate control.

Optimal Margin Computation for At-Speed Test

2008 Design, Automation and Test in Europe, 2008
In the face of increased process variations, at-speed manufacturing test is necessary to detect subtle delay defects. This procedure necessarily tests chips at a slightly higher speed than the target frequency required in the field. The additional performance required on the tester is called test margin. There are many good reasons for margin including

Optimal Travel Speeds of Animals

The American Naturalist, 1981
Animal travel speeds have been hypothesized to satisfy several possible optimality criteria. These include (1) maximize net rate of energy gain (during foraging), (2) minimize energy cost per unit distance, and (3) minimize rate of energy expenditure. These criteria and others have, however, received little justification.

Determining optimal monetary speed limits

Economics Letters, 2012
Abstract The proposal by Walsh (2003) that policy should include a speed limit by having the change in the output gap as an additional term in a Taylor-type rule is shown to be exactly optimal given an appropriate parameterization.

Lane Design for Speed Optimization

2010
Lane Design for Speed Optimization (LDSO) presents a new critical lane analysis as a guide for designing speed optimization to serve rush-hour traffic demands. Physical design and speed optimization are identified, and methods for evaluation are provided. The Lane Design for Speed optimization (LDSO) analysis technique is applied to the proposed design

Knowledge Compilation to Speed Up Numerical Optimization

1991
Many important application problems can be formalized as constrained non-linear optimization tasks. However, numerical methods for solving such problems are brittle and do not scale well. This paper describes a method to speed up and increase the reliability of numerical optimization by (a) optimizing the computation of the objective function, and (b ...
