-This paper introduces an optimisation model that may be used for planning wind turbine installations over a global energy scenario. The model follows from the observation that, in most practical cases, installations may have to be made under space constraints, and that this may limit the overall energy output per unit land area. In such cases, it may be wise to install wind turbines of large r...

a linear superposition method was used for modeling the time history of the production blast vibrations and optimizing the blast sequence to reduce vibration levels in sar-cheshmeh copper mine, kerman, iran. a single-hole blast for modeling and two double-hole blasts with time delays of 25 and 65 ms between two holes for modeling validation were carried out. the generated vibrations were measur...

in order to reduce both the weight of vehicles and the damage of occupants in a crash event simultaneously, it is necessary to perform a multi-objective optimization of the automotive energy absorbing components. in this paper, axial impact crushing behavior of the aluminum foam-filled thin-walled tubes are studied by the finite element method using commercial software abaqus. comparison of the...

EMELIE-ESY is a partial equilibrium model with focus on electricity markets. Private investors optimize their generation capacity investment and dispatch over the horizon 2010 to 2050. In the framework of the Energy Modeling Forum 28, we investigate how climate policy regimes affect market developments under different technology availabilities and climate policies on the European power markets....

This paper presents to demonstrate a new tool for designing integrated municipal solid waste to energy systems in the urban environment, in determining how municipal solid waste can be used to generate energy rather than being disposed of in landfills and whether it will be economical to do so. A tool has been developed to design energy system in urban environment looking at the impact of urban...
