Many transportation networks have complex infrastructures (road, rail, airspace, etc.). The quality of service in air transportation depends on weather conditions. Technical failures of the aircraft, bad weather conditions, strike of the company’s staff cause delays and disrupt traffic. How can the robustness of such networks be improved?...

The mining industry is a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions and operational costs. The transportation of materials within mining operations, especially using diesel-powered trucks, accounts for a substantial portion of both emissions and costs. Optimizing fuel consumption in this context is crucial for environmental...

The research on sustainable energy is growing, among which, wind energy catching growing attention and the potential has been supported by more and more countries. Compared with onshore wind farms, offshore wind farms have more advantages including the abundant wind resource at the offshore location and more possible construction areas. While...

Channel allocation in dense, decentralized Wi-Fi networks is a challenging due to the highly nonlinear solution space and the difficulty to estimate the opponent’s utility model. So far, only centralized or mediated approaches have succeeded in applying negotiation to this setting. We propose the first two fully-distributed negotiation...

Channel allocation in dense Wi-Fi networks is a complex problem due to its nonlinear and exponentially sized solution space. Negotiating over this domain is a challenge, since it is difficult to estimate opponent’s utility. Based on our previous work in mediated techniques, we propose the first two fully-distributed multi-agent negotiations...

To design electron lens systems, applying a fully automated optimization routine has not yet been feasible, especially for the case where the optimization has many free variables of the lens system, such as all parameters that define the geometry of the lens electrodes and the voltage of each electrode. Hence, the study of the implementation of...

The results of dig limit delineation in open pit mining are never truly optimized due to gaps in the underlying data, such as insufficient sampling. Aside from the data uncertainty, there is also an influence on the final dig limit by either humans or by the heuristic character of an optimization method like simulated annealing. Several dig...

In the current economy, there is an increasing focus on sustainability. Green transport solutions, like rail freight, are becoming more and more popular. We will look into the shunting operations at Kijfhoek shunting yard. This yard functions as the central hub for DB Cargo Nederland and connects the Port of Rotterdam with the hinterland. About...

In this work, we introduce a new workflow to solve portfolio optimization problems on annealing platforms. We combine a classical preprocessing step with a modified unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO) model and evaluate it using simulated annealing (classical computer), digital annealing (Fujitsu’s Digital Annealing Unit), and quantum...

Estimating a sequence of dynamic undirected graphical models, in which adjacent graphs share similar structures, is of paramount importance in various social, financial, biological, and engineering systems, since the evolution of such networks can be utilized for example to spot trends, detect anomalies, predict vulnerability, and evaluate...

Recent developments in quantum annealing have shown promising results in logistics, life sciences, machine learning and more. However, in the field of geophysical sciences the applications have been limited. A quantum annealing application was developed for residual statics estimation. Residual statics estimation is a highly non-linear problem...

In this thesis, a simulated annealing algorithm is implemented to optimize the efficiency of a tandem solar cell. The efficiency of a tandem solar cell is approximated by the current of the tandem solar cell. This current is determined by the simulation program GenPro4. Firstly, the general concepts of simulated annealing is described. After...

The Dutch Railways (NS) is the Dutch national passenger railway operator. They own rolling stock that has to be maintained regularly. One of the maintenance facilities executing regular maintenance on regional trains is the maintenance department (OB) in Leidschendam. The aim of this project is to develop a framework for optimizing the...

The Dutch railway system is subject to maintenance, which is carried out by a group of rail contractors who need parking space to park and prepare trains in between projects. The objective of this study is to minimise the total costs as a result of the distance travelled by maintenance trains and the preservation of the included parking...

Sectorization is an effective technique for reducing the complexities of analyzing and managing of water systems. The resulting sectors, called district metering areas (DMAs), are expected to meet some requirements and performance criteria such as minimum number of intervention, pressure uniformity, similarity of demands, water quality and...

Many games played on the mobile phone have become large in download size. A significant portion thereof is due to the many textures that are involved. However, many games have art styles that include clean drawings with gradients, solid colors, and hard lines. We observe that these images’ areas may be more efficiently described by interpolating...

This thesis explores different methodes to optimally guide a swarm of drones towards a steel shipping container. It does this using techniques such as Simulated Annealing and Magnetic Anomaly Detection. The drones will use Simulated Annealing in combination with Magnetic Anomaly Detection to estimate where the steel shipping container is located...

A switching max-plus linear model is a framework to describe the discrete dynamics of the timing of events. To influence these systems one can choose the routes of jobs and the orderings of operations as input for the system. In this thesis the techniques of model predictive control are used to find good input values. The problem of finding the...
