Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book presents state-of-the-art technologies in wind farm layout optimization and control to improve the current industry/research practice. The contents take readers towards a different kind of uncertainty handling through the discussion on several techniques enabling maximum energy harnessing out of uncertain situations. The book aims to give a detailed overview of such concepts in the first part, where the recent advancements in the fields of (i) Wind farm layout optimization, (ii) Multi-objective Optimization and Uncertainty handling in optimization methods, (iii) Development of Machine Learning-based surrogate models in optimization, and (iv) Different types of wake models for wind farms will be discussed. The second part will cover the application of the aforementioned techniques on the wind farm layout optimization and control through several chapters such as (i) Wind farm performance assessment using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tools, (ii) Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based hybrid wake models, (iii) Long Short-term Memory (LSTM) & Support Vector Regression (SVR) based forecasting and micro-siting, (iv) windfarm micro-siting using data-driven Robust Optimization (RO) as well as Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), (v) Reinforcement learning (RL) based wind farm control and (vi) Application of eXplainable AI (XAI) tools for interpreting wind time-series data. In this manner, the book provides state-of-the-art techniques in the fields of multi-objective optimization, Evolutionary Algorithms, Machine Learning surrogate models, Bayesian Optimization, Data Analysis, and Optimization under Uncertainty and their applications in the field of wind energy generation that can be extremely generic and can be applied to many other engineering fields. This volume will be of interest to those in academia and industry.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book presents the latest trends and developments in multimodal optimization and niching techniques. Most existing optimization methods are designed for locating a single global solution. However, in real-world settings, many problems are 'multimodal' by nature, i.e., multiple satisfactory solutions exist.It may be desirable to locate several such solutions before deciding which one to use.Multimodal optimization has been the subject of intense study in the field of population-based meta-heuristic algorithms, e.g., evolutionary algorithms (EAs), for the past few decades.These multimodal optimization techniques are commonly referred to as 'niching' methods, because of the nature-inspired 'niching' effect that is induced to the solution population targeting at multiple optima. Many niching methods have been developed in the EA community. Some classic examples include crowding, fitness sharing, clearing, derating, restricted tournament selection, speciation, etc.Nevertheless, applying these niching methods to real-world multimodal problems often encounters significant challenges.To facilitate the advance of niching methods in facing these challenges, this edited book highlights the latest developments in niching methods. The included chapters touch on algorithmic improvements and developments, representation, and visualization issues, as well as new research directions, such as preference incorporation in decision making and new application areas. This edited book is a first of this kind specifically on the topic of niching techniques.This book will serve as a valuable reference book both for researchers and practitioners. Although chapters are written in a mutually independent way, Chapter 1 will help novice readers get an overview of the field. It describes the development of the field and its current state and provides a comparative analysis of the IEEE CEC and ACM GECCO niching competitions of recent years, followed by a collection of open research questions and possible research directions that may be tackled in the future.
