A hybrid geothermal-biomass system integrates multigeneration heating, cooling, and power through thermodynamic and economic optimization. Using exergy analysis and particle swarm optimization, the ...

Optimizing to basic performance metrics can leave campaigns reeling. Profitability and incremental returns are key to finding your true North Star. The team at Mediasmith has cracked the code for ...

Optimizing economic welfare without constraints might put human well-being at risk, a new climate study argues. While being successful in bringing down costs of greenhouse gas reductions for instance, ...

We need to think of a solar facility as an investment portfolio, not a single investment. Ideally with a portfolio you want to remove the bad investments, optimizing the return of the remainder of the ...

A study analyzing urban bifacial PV systems in high-latitude areas found they can generate 9–13% more electricity than monofacial panels under snow conditions, particularly in winter, while also ...

Due to shortages in crude oil supplies there is considerable motivation to develop the vast petroleum resources located on our outer continental shelf. Offshore oil operations require great outlays of ...

We analyze the dynamic process of invasive-species control in a spatially explicit and stochastic setting. An integer optimization model is applied to identify optimal strategies to deal with invasive ...

Researchers at the Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka have outlined a techno-economic optimization approach to define the appropriate power sizing ratio (PSR) for inverters used in grid-connected PV ...

As the economy continues to struggle and operators face challenges with labor, shortages, soaring food costs – and demands from consumers for continuous variety, increased focus on health and wellness ...

The past decade in media and entertainment has been characterized by significant disruption, particularly in the streaming sector. In this maturing market, streamers face the challenge of finding ways ...
