Multi-objective Resilience Optimization of Interdependent Critical Infrastructure Networks

Creator:

Tiong, Achara

Abstract:

Critical Infrastructures (CIs) such as energy, water supply, telecommunications, and transportation are highly vulnerable to cascading failures due to their interdependent operations. A resilient network is crucial to withstand the impact of functionality loss in disruptive events. This research evaluates network expansion as a proactive resilience strategy in which new...

A Quantitative Analysis of Simultaneous Supply and Demand Disruptions on a Multi-Echelon Supply Chain

Creator:

Kost, Austin R.

Abstract:

Modern supply chains have grown to be far more complex than their predecessors, as global trade and accessibility have opened avenues of trade that were previously impossible. As such, the inherent risk of internal and/or external disruptions impacting the performance of a supply chain has also grown due to the...

A Metaheuristic Approach for Facilities Location with Balanced Allocation of Customers

Creator:

Nippaya, Dheeraporn

Abstract:

Organizations are constantly looking for innovative strategies to face more stringent competitive environments and the ever increasing market globalization. An alternative these organizations can pursue to respond to these challenges is to optimize their supply chain network (SCN). Important considerations when optimizing a SCN involve determining locations for plants and...

A supply chain model for optimizing fixed and mobile bio-oil refineries on a regional scale

Creator:

Mirzaie, Pantea

Abstract:

The use of fossil fuels and their related impact on the environment and global warming have encouraged societies to pursue more sustainable and renewable alternatives, e.g., forest-based bio-oil. Thus, a vital need to decrease the level of greenhouse gas emissions and the tendency of nations to reduce their dependency on...

A comparison of single runs versus multistart for simulated annealing and threshold accepting

Creator:

Crews, Matthew

Abstract:

Simulated Annealing and Threshold Accepting are two stochastic search algorithms that have been successfully used on a variety of complex and difficult problem sets. Due to their stochastic nature they are not guaranteed to produce the same result for each run. This means that these techniques actually produce a distribution...

Experimental Characterization of a Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Microchannel Solar Thermal Receiver

Creator:

L'Estrange, Thomas

Abstract:

Characterization of a microchannel solar thermal receiver for supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO₂) is presented. The receiver design is based on conjugate computational fluid dynamics and heat transfer simulations as well as thermo-mechanical stress analysis. Two lab scale receivers with a 2x2 cm² absorber area are fabricated and experimentally characterized -...

Bi-criteria group scheduling with sequence-dependent setup time in a flow shop

Creator:

Lu, Dongchen

Abstract:

Cellular manufacturing, which is also referred to as group technology among researchers, has primarily been used as a means to increase productivity, efficiency and flexibility. Under group technology, similar jobs, which have similar shape, material, and processing operations are assigned to the same group. Moreover, dissimilar machines are assigned to...

An application of regression tree methodology in freeway travel time estimation using speed as a proxy

Creator:

Wang, Lijuan

Abstract:

Accurate freeway travel time estimation is of increasing importance for the travelers’ information and route guidance system. A non-parametric statistical methodology known as regression trees is deployed in this research for dynamically and accurately estimating freeway travel times for the I5-I205 loop in the Portland Metro area of Oregon using...

A Theoretical Framework to Capture Stakeholders' Perspectives for the Design of Collaborative Communication Structures for Specialized Organizations

Creator:

Chongvilaiwan, Tanida

Abstract:

Small business energy analysts often specialize in one aspect of the business. This specialized focus is done by necessity due to scarcity of resources and to maintain a proprietary market niche. However, this specialized focus results in a growth inhibitor due to their lack of ability to address all the...
