Genetic algorithms (GAs) have been used in many disciplines to optimize solutions for a
broad range of problems. In the last 20 years, the statistical literature has seen an increase …

By using thermal storages it is possible to decouple the generation of power and heat, and it
can also lead to an reduction in investments, as the storage can be used to cover the peak …

Abstract An Eco-Industrial Park (EIP) is composed of a number of Industrial Symbiosis (IS)
instances, which allow energy/material exchanges among the different industrial enterprises …

Complex turbines with multiple controlled and/or uncontrolled extractions are popularly used
in the processing industry and cogeneration plants to provide steam of different levels …

One of the most important issues in developing an evolutionary optimization algorithm is the
proper handling of any constraints on the problem. One must balance the objective function …

Small scale axial air driven turbine (less than 10 kW) is the crucial component in distributed
power generation cycles and in compressed air energy storage systems driven by …

In this paper, we developed a hybrid model for the steam turbines of a utility system, which
combines an improved neural network model with the thermodynamic model. Then, a …

В работе предложен новый подход к оптимизации работы ТЭЦ в условиях российского
оптового рынка электроэнергии и мощности. Подход был сформулирован и …

It is difficult to build a mathematical model for a railway container terminal because its
