In this paper we address link dimensioning and routing problems related to the area of resilient network design. We present two network design problems that assume different flow restoration schemes used to cope with network failures. In both cases we allow bifurcation of traffic flows in the normal (failure-less) network state. In the case of a failure, we assume that affected primary flows (i.e.
This paper presents a dynamic optimization procedure of grade changes of polyethylene production. The optimization is built upon a novel modular Modelica library containing e.g., non-linear DAE models for polyethylene reactors based on models currently used in nonlinear MPC of industrial reactors at Borealis AB. Using Optimica, which extends the Modelica language with constructs for optimization p
An experimental characterization of friction forces between asymmetric surfaces in the micro-regime is presented. The lateral motion and force-measurement capability of an instrumented indenter (triboindenter) is characterized and explored for determining friction properties at low velocities. Friction experiments are performed using the triboindenter with high repeatability. It is observed that r
This paper presents a systematic approach to robust preconditioning for gradient based non-linear inverse scattering algorithms. In particular, one- and two-dimensional inverse problems are considered where the permittivity and conductivity profiles are unknown and the input data consists of the scattered field over a certain bandwidth. A time-domain least-squares formulation is employed and the i
