Evaluation of Chemical Processes for Sustainable Optimization
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-05-01)
Increasing concerns over global climate change due to greater amounts of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere or ozone depletion etc. are leading engineers to address `environmental' impacts of industrial processes. Additionally, ...
Robust Shortest Paths under Uncertainty Using Conditional Value-at-Risk
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-12-01)
Finding a shortest path in a network is a classical problem in discrete optimization. The systems underlying the network models are subjects to a variety of sources of uncertainty. The purpose of this thesis is to model ...
Pseudo-Component Viscoelastic Modeling of Soft Tissues
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-12-01)
Understanding the response of human tissues to externally imposed stress and strain is critical to improving quality of life. This work explored regression approaches and modeling that aid discovery and describe mechanisms ...
Optimization of Integrated Renewable Energy System - Micro Grid (IRES-MG)
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-12-01)
Ever growing demands of increasing world population has challenged the scientific and technical communities to supply quality energy in a sustainable manner. Dependence on fossil fuels has resulted in the depletion of the ...
Approach to Modeling and Optimization of Integrated Renewable Energy System (Ires)
(Oklahoma State University, 2013-12-01)
The purpose of this study was to cost optimize electrical part of IRES (Integrated Renewable Energy Systems) using HOMER and maximize the utilization of resources using MATLAB programming. IRES is an effective and a viable ...
Optimization of Processes for Sustainability
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-05-01)
This research is focused on developing a methodology to optimize processes for sustainability. To design a sustainable process that addresses economic, environmental and social concerns is a complex multiobjective problem. ...
