The next generation of cellular networks will be characterized by softwarized, open, and
disaggregated architectures exposing analytics and control knobs to enable network …

Thermal energy storage (TES) for a cooling plant is a crucial resource for load flexibility.
Traditionally, simple, heuristic control approaches, such as the storage priority control which …

This study shows a review and brief analysis of the most concepts and models in the supply
chain of solar energy. The presented work of this study possesses two parts. In the first …

We present three core principles for engineering-oriented integrated modeling and
optimization tool sets—intuitive modeling contexts, systematic computer-aided …

The synthesis and optimization of multilevel refrigeration systems is challenging because
it'sa highly non-linear, multi-variable, and multi-modal problem. This work presents a novel …

Currently, some regions have low access to electricity services, which prevents the affected
population from having an adequate standard of living. The human development index (HDI) …

The pharmaceutical industry needs design tools to identify greener and more resource-
efficient process routes. Current model-based solvent selection methodologies often focus …

Both the global steel and chemical industries contribute largely to industrial greenhouse gas
(GHG) emissions. For both industries, GHG emissions are strongly related to the …

The use of commercial flowsheeting programs enables straight-forward use of rigorous, but
user hidden, mathematical formulations of chemical processes. The optimization of such …

ABSTRACT The Forest Biorefinery Supply Chain (FBSC) design problem is addressed. A
general mathematical framework based on a Generalized Disjunctive Programming (GDP) …
