In many real world problems, optimisation decisions have to be made with limited information. The decision maker may have no a priori or posteriori data about the often nonconvex objective function except from on a limited number of data points. The scarcity of data may be due to high cost of...

This paper presents a Pareto-optimization based zonal day-ahead reactive power market settlement model named as multi-zone DA-RPMS model. Three competing objective functions such as Total Payment Function (TPF) for reactive power support services from generators/synchronous condensers, Total...

In a carbon and resources constrained world, thermo-chemical conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into fuels and chemicals is regarded as a promising alternative to fossil resources derived products. Methanol is one potential product which can be used for the synthesis of various chemicals or...
