Modelling of Multi-Scale Uncertainties in Biofuel Supply Chain Optimization

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2016
Although strategic and operational uncertainties differ in significance of impact, a “one-size-fits-all” approach has been typically used to tackle all types of uncertainty in the optimal design and operations of supply chains. In this work, we propose a

Pure characteristics demand models and distributionally robust mathematical programs with stochastic complementarity constraints [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Programming, 2021
We formulate pure characteristics demand models under uncertainties of probability distributions as distributionally robust mathematical programs with stochastic complementarity constraints (DRMP-SCC). For any fixed first-stage variable and a random realization, the second-stage problem of DRMP-SCC is a monotone linear complementarity problem (LCP). To

Two-Stage Robust Optimization for the Orienteering Problem with Stochastic Weights

open access: yesComplexity, 2020
In this paper, the two-stage orienteering problem with stochastic weights is studied, where the first-stage problem is to plan a path under the uncertain environment and the second-stage problem is a recourse action to make sure that the length ...

Consensus Distributionally Robust Optimization With Phi-Divergence

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
We study an efficient algorithm to solve the distributionally robust optimization (DRO) problem, which has recently attracted attention as a new paradigm for decision making in uncertain situations.

Modeling optimal long-term investment strategies of hybrid wind-thermal companies in restructured power market

open access: yesJournal of Modern Power Systems and Clean Energy, 2019
In this paper, a novel framework for the estimation of optimal investment strategies for combined wind-thermal companies is proposed. The medium-term restructured power market was simulated by considering the stochastic and rational uncertainties, the ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Multistage robust energy management for microgrids considering uncertainty

open access: yesIET Generation, Transmission & Distribution, 2019
Microgrids play an important role in modern power systems which can integrate different kinds of distributed energy resources (DERs). To deal with the uncertainty from various factors such as renewable generation, robust energy management for microgrids ...

Single‐cell DNA methylation profiling: Technologies, computation, and applications in precision oncology

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Single‐cell DNA methylation (scDNAme) profiling maps epimutational clonal evolution, revealing mechanisms of malignancy and therapeutic resistance across diverse cancer types. By providing a high‐resolution landscape of intratumoral heterogeneity, these technologies empower precise patient stratification, guide the development of enhanced ...
