    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Mariana Flor Lopes; [2023]
    Keywords : Photovoltaic-Energy Storage System; Artificial Neural Networks; Self-Consumption; Linear Optimization; Cost Reduction; Solfångare-energilagringssystem; artificiella neurala nätverk; självkonsumtion; linjär optimering; kostnadsminskning;

    Abstract : With the ever-increasing adoption of renewable energy sources, the seamless integration of PV systems into existing grids becomes imperative. Therefore, this study investigates the integration of a PV-ESS system into sustainable urban living. READ MORE

  3. 7. When is Electric Freight Cost Competitive? : Computational modeling and simulation of total cost of ownership for electric truck fleets

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för ekonomisk och industriell utveckling

    Author : Anton Zackrisson; [2023]
    Keywords : electric freight; battery-electric trucks; total cost of ownership; decision making under deep uncertainty DMDU ; cost-competitiveness; exploratory modeling and analysis EMA ; EMA workbench; quasi-Monte Carlo method; VRP; EVRP; elektrifiering; godstransport; elektriska lastbilar; total ägandekostnad; kostnadskonkurrenskraft; ruttoptimering;

    Abstract : Battery electric trucks (BETs) offer environmental benefits in terms of reduced carbon emissions and enhanced energy efficiency but have been challenged with economic viability compared to conventional internal combustion engine trucks (ICETs) caused by substantial acquisition costs, limited charging infrastructure, and concerns regarding range and payload capacity.  Previous studies focus on TCO at the vehicle or policy level but overlook the system and firm-level impacts.

  4. 8. Optimization of Transport, Storage and Allocation of Production at Norra Timber

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Jonatan Behndig; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Optimization is a method that is, as the name suggests, used to find the    optimal solution for different problems. In practice the method is used for    many different purposes, everything from minimizing the distance traveled by a traveling salesman, to maximizing the storage capacity of a warehouse. READ MORE

  5. 9. A neuromorphic approach for edge use allocation

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Kim Petersson Steenari; [2022]
    Keywords : Neuromorphic computing; Edge computing; Neuromorphic; Edge; Cloud computing; cloud; SNN; Spiking neural networks; Edge user allocation;

    Abstract : This paper introduces a new way of solving an edge user allocation problem. The problem is to be solved with a network of spiking neurons. This network should quickly and with low energy cost solve the optimization problem of allocating users to servers and minimizing the amount of servers hired to reduce the related hiring cost.

  6. 10. A GP-Surrogate-Based Bayesian Framework for Surge Barrier Optimization

    University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Author : Abel Valko; [2022]
    Keywords : Bayesian Optimization; Gaussian Process Regression; Storm Surge; GeoClaw; GISSR;

    Abstract : Tropical cyclone induced storm surges are some of the largest environmental risks facing infrastructure and human life in dense urban environments. Hurricane Sandy caused 44 deaths and damage of 19 billion US dollars in New York City alone. READ MORE
