An advanced modeling system for optimization of wind farm layout and wind turbine sizing using a multi-level extended pattern search algorithm

Creator:

DuPont, Bryony, Cagan, Jonathan, and Moriarty, Patrick

Abstract:

This paper presents a system of modeling advances that can be applied in the computational optimization of wind plants. These modeling advances include accurate cost and power modeling, partial wake interaction, and the effects of varying atmospheric stability. To validate the use of this advanced modeling system, it is employed...

Production possibility frontiers and socioecological tradeoffs for restoration of fire adapted forests

Creator:

Ager, Alan A., Day, Michelle A., and Vogler, Kevin

Abstract:

We used spatial optimization to analyze alternative restoration scenarios and quantify tradeoffs for a large, multifaceted restoration program to restore resiliency to forest landscapes in the western US. We specifically examined tradeoffs between provisional ecosystem services, fire protection, and the amelioration of key ecological stressors. The results revealed that attainment...
