Multi-objective optimization of coal-fired electricity production with CO2 capture

Cristóbal, Jorge; Guillén-Gosálbez, Gonzalo; … - In: Applied Energy 98 (2012) C, pp. 266-272

The use of oxy-combustion is an attractive alternative to amine based absorption of CO2 to retrofit coal-fired power plants. The aim of this work is to compare these two carbon capture technologies taking into account environmental and economic criteria. To this end, we have developed a rigorous...

Penalty-Free Feasibility Boundary Convergent Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm for the Optimization of Water Distribution Systems

Siew, Calvin; Tanyimboh, Tiku - In: Water Resources Management 26 (2012) 15, pp. 4485-4507

This paper presents a new penalty-free multi-objective evolutionary approach (PFMOEA) for the optimization of water distribution systems (WDSs). The proposed approach utilizes pressure dependent analysis (PDA) to develop a multi-objective evolutionary search. PDA is able to simulate both normal...

Preference elicitation from inconsistent judgments using multi-objective optimization

Siraj, S.; Mikhailov, L.; Keane, J.A. - In: European Journal of Operational Research 220 (2012) 2, pp. 461-471

Several decision-making techniques involve pairwise comparisons to elicit the preferences of a decision maker (DM). This paper proposes a new approach for prioritization from pairwise comparisons using the concept of indirect judgments. No method exists that simultaneously minimizes deviations...
