Automated switch-block exploration gains in importance as technology scaling brings more emphasis on the physical constraints, making it insufficient to rely on abstract measures of routability alone. In this work, we take an approach that significantly di ...
This paper gives a new formulation to design adaptive structures through total energy optimization (TEO). This methodology enables the design of truss as well as tensegrity configurations that are equipped with linear actuators to counteract the effect of ...
This project falls within the framework of a Master Thesis at the Industrial Processes and Energy Systems Engineering (IPESE) laboratory of Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). With the aim of assessing the building stock impact on global energ ...
This paper presents a new All-In-One (AIO) implementation of an existing formulation to design adaptive structures through Total Energy Optimization (TEO). The method implemented in previous work is a nested optimization process, here named TEO-Nested. Num ...
Design optimization of distributed energy systems has become an interest of a wider group of researchers due the capability of these systems to integrate non-dispatchable renewable energy technologies such as solar PV and wind. White box models, using line ...
This work presents a new computational optimization framework for the robust control of parks of Wave Energy Converters (WEC) in irregular waves. The power of WEC parks is maximized with respect to the individual control damping and stiffness coefficients ...
Energy transition is blurring the boundaries between the demand and supply sides with growing participation of prosumer resources. The intensifying pace of electrification and digitalization during the past decade tends to continue, leading to potential te ...
Improving the energy sustainability of our cities involves the integration of multiple renewable energy technologies into existing energy infrastructure, stretching the capabilities of traditional energy systems to the limit. To consider the transition tak ...
