A comparative assessment of different deviation strategies for dangerous NEO [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In this paper a number of deviation strategies for dangerous Near Earth Objects (NEO) have been compared. For each strategy (i.e. Solar Collector, Nuclear Blast, Kinetic Impactor, Low-thrust Propulsion, Mass Driver) a multi criteria optimisation method ...

A New Method for Solving Multiobjective Bilevel Programs

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2017
We study a class of multiobjective bilevel programs with the weights of objectives being uncertain and assumed to belong to convex and compact set. To the best of our knowledge, there is no study about this class of problems. We use a worst-case weighted

Design and Optimization of a Novel Kalina‐Organic Rankine Cycle System Based on LNG Cold Energy Utilization

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study proposes a novel integrated system (SDKC‐DORC) that combines a split‐flow dual‐pressure Kalina cycle with a secondary organic Rankine cycle for the synergistic utilization of solar energy and liquefied natural gas (LNG) cold energy.

PRINCIPII DE ECHILIBRU PARETO-NASH-STACKELBERG

open access: yesStudia Universitatis Moldaviae: Stiinte Umanistice, 2010
We consider the problem of determining the set of Pareto-Nash-Stackelberg equilibria in strategic games. The main results are formulated and explained. A procedure for the equilibrium set determining is presented.

Regular distributive efficiency and the distributive liberal social contract. [PDF]

open access: yes
We consider abstract social systems of private property, made of n individuals endowed with non-paternalistic interdependent preferences, who interact through exchanges on competitive markets and Pareto-efficient lumpsum transfers.

Energy‐Efficient and Sustainable Design Optimization for Ternary Mixture Separation: A Comparative Analysis of Sequential Iterative Optimization and Non‐Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a comparative analysis of two optimization approaches: Sequential Iterative Optimization (SIO) and Non‐dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA‐II) applied to the separation of ternary mixtures (1‐butanol, isobutanol, and 2‐butanol) using Dual‐Column Distillation (DCD) and Dividing‐Wall Column (DWC) processes. Through a

Short‐Term Scheduling Optimization of a Single‐Pipeline Refining System With High Melting Point Crude Oil

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In order to reflect the actual production situation more comprehensively and optimize the production cost, this paper solves the short‐term scheduling optimization problem for a single pipeline containing high melting point crude oil. Based on the refining plan given by the upper layer, a multi‐objective optimization model with high melting ...

Characterizations of Pareto-efficient, fair, and strategy-proof allocation rules in queueing problems [PDF]

open access: yes
A set of agents with possibly different waiting costs have to receive the same service one after the other. Efficiency requires to maximize total welfare. Equity requires to at least treat equal agents equally.

Optimizing biomass use for carbon storage and land use with the OptiBiU model

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Optimal biomass use in a circular bioeconomy requires a system perspective to guide decision‐making. The Optimizing Biomass Use (OptiBiU) model was developed for this purpose. The model distinguishes among primary biomass production, intermediate products, and biobased products, and incorporates recycling.
