Optimal Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Wave Propagation
We have developed and analyzed a new class of discontinuous Galerkin methods (DG) which can be seen as a compromise between standard DG and the finite element (FE) method in the way that it is explicit like standard DG and energy conserving like FE. In the literature there are many methods that achieve some of the goals of explicit time marching, unstructured grid, energy conservation, and opti...
متن کاملControl strategies for oscillating water column wave energy converters
The oscillating water column wave energy converter (OWCWEC) is an established device which produces electricity by causing an ocean wave to drive air through a turbine. A system to control the operation can improve the device’s performance. In varying sea conditions, different objectives for control may be appropriate. For example, in some seas the controller might shut off the plant because th...
متن کاملPeak-power control of a grid-integrated oscillating water column wave energy converter
A critical characteristic of most WECs (wave energy converters) is the large peak-to-average power ratio. This poses many challenges to the design of high-efficient PTO (power take-off) systems and, even more importantly, to integrate this form of renewable energy into power grids. The OWC (oscillating water column) WECs are devices whose PTO uses an air turbine as the primary energy converter....
متن کاملa benchmarking approach to optimal asset allocation for insurers and pension funds
uncertainty in the financial market will be driven by underlying brownian motions, while the assets are assumed to be general stochastic processes adapted to the filtration of the brownian motions. the goal of this study is to calculate the accumulated wealth in order to optimize the expected terminal value using a suitable utility function. this thesis introduced the lim-wong’s benchmark fun...
15 صفحه اولOptimal Control for Burgers Flow Using the Discontinuous Galerkin Method
The coupling of accurate computational fluid dynamics analysis with optimal control theory has the potential to advance active flow-control for complex fluid systems. In this paper, an optimal control framework for the viscous Burgers equation is constructed based on the Discontinuous Galerkin Method (DGM). A DGM discretization has several potential advantages for optimization studies including...
