This study presents an optimal framework for the operation of integrated energy systems using demand response programs. The main goal of integrated energy systems is to optimally supply various demands using different energy carriers such as electricity, heating, and cooling. Considering the power market price, this work investigates the effects of multiple energy storage devices and demand res...

Effective parameters that can effect on the performance of the separation system consist of operating pressure, operating temperature, reflux ratio, and kind of produce desirable products and different sequences of splits. As take a separation system with optimal performance is dependent on optimization of above mentioned effective parameters. In generally, there are two criteria (as object fun...

Building information modeling can help in predicting the energy efficiency in future based on dynamic patterns obtained by visualization of data. The aim of this study was to investigate the effective parameters of energy consumption using BIM technology which can evaluate the buildings energy performance. First, three forms of general states in the building were modeled to evaluate the propose...

In present study, the effects of optimization on seismic energy spectra including input energy, damping energy and yielding hysteretic energy are parametrically discussed. To this end, 12 generic steel moment-resisting frames having fundamental periods ranging from 0.3 to 3s are optimized by using uniform damage and deformation approaches subjected to a series of 40 non-pule strong ground motio...

The Cloud Computing model leverages virtualization of computing resources allowing customers to provision resources on-demand on a pay-as-you-go basis. During recent years, the power consumption of datacenters in cloud environment attracted researchers. Optimization of energy consumption can be performed by different methods including virtual machine (VM) consolidation. This technique can reduc...

increasing of energy demand and decreasing of water resources, could make the future energy production as a big challenge. climate change is one of the main reasons for water resources limitation. future precipitation and air temperature, change hydrological conditions and directly effect on the hydropower production. for showing the future condition and making it possible to manage the hydropo...
