Investigation of superturbocharger performance improvements through steady state engine simulation
An integrated supercharger/turbocharger (SuperTurbo) is a device that combines the advantages of a supercharging, turbocharging and turbocompounding while eliminating some of their individual disadvantages. High boost, ... -
Bids-evaluation decision model development and application for PPP transport projects, The: a project risks modeling framework
Public-private partnership (PPP) infrastructure projects play a key role in economic growth. Value for money (VFM), a core objective when conducting PPP projects, is defined as the optimal combination of whole life costs ... -
Facilitated process and online toolset to analyze complex systems and coordinate active watershed development and transformation, A
Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) coordinates public, private, and nonprofit sectors in strategic resource development, while emphasizing holistic environmental protection. Without more integrated efforts, ... -
Regional-scale groundwater flow and salt transport models for exploring agro-environmental remediation strategies in an irrigated river valley
To view the abstract, please see the full text of the document. -
Toward optimal water management in Colorado's Lower Arkansas River Valley: monitoring and modeling to enhance agriculture and environment
For several years, Colorado State University has been documenting flow and water quality conditions in Colorado's Lower Arkansas River Valley with the goal of providing data and models that water users and managers can use ... -
Network analysis of raw water supplies under complex water rights and exchanges: documentation for program MODSIM3
The increasing complexity of water supply planning and management for municipalities such as Fort Collins requires use of computer models as an aid for City Staff and Water Board members. a generalized model called MODSIM3 ... -
Integrated water and power modeling framework for renewable energy integration
Increasing penetration of intermittent renewable energy sources into the bulk electricity system has caused new operational challenges requiring large ramping rate and reserve capacity as well as increased transmission ... -
Tabu search evolutionary algorithm for multiobjective optimization, A: application to a bi-criterion aircraft structural reliability problem
Real-world engineering optimization problems often require the consideration of multiple conflicting and noncommensurate objectives, subject to nonconvex constraint regions in a high-dimensional decision space. Further ... -
Value-function based method for incorporating ensemble forecasts in real-time optimal reservoir operations, A
Increasing stress on water resource systems has led to a desire to seek methods of improving the performance of reservoir operations. Water managers face many challenges including changes in demand, variable hydrological ... -
Socio-environmental tradeoff analysis using decision science tools to guide river management
Across the globe, rivers are put into the service of meeting human needs and wants. Societal dependence on rivers and the consumptive benefits they provide has advanced at the unanticipated cost of degrading biodiversity ...
