Energy-aware joint power, packet and topology optimization by simulated annealing for WSNs
(2013)Energy-aware connectivity in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can increase their network lifetime. This can be achieved by optimizing the power control, a particular communication mechanism and the topology control. To this ... -
Evaluation of the ductility features in steel structures with softening moment-rotation behaviour based on a nonconvex optimization formulation
(2000)In order to determine the ductility features of steel structures, several approaches have been introduced in the bibliography. In this paper a certain method is proposed which considers the actual form of the moment-rotation ... -
Heuristics for flight and maintenance planning of mission aircraft
(2014)Flight and Maintenance Planning (FMP) of mission aircraft addresses the question of which available aircraft to fly and for how long, and which grounded aircraft to perform maintenance operations on, in a group of aircraft ... -
Hydrologic processes simulation using the conceptual model Zygos: the example of Xynias drained Lake catchment (central Greece)
(2016)In the catchment of Xynias drained Lake, hydrologic processes simulation took place using a lumped approach with the conceptual model Zygos. The model implements a conceptual soil moisture accounting scheme extended with ... -
Improving hybrid SOFC-GT systems performance through turbomachinery design
(2014)A methodology to improve the performance of a hybrid solid oxide fuel cell gas turbine (SOFC-GT) system for the whole operating range is proposed. The method suggests a way to estimate the geometric parameters of the ... -
Integrated biodepuration of pesticide-contaminated wastewaters from the fruit-packaging industry using biobeds: Bioaugmentation, risk assessment and optimized management
(2016)Wastewaters from fruit-packaging plants contain high loads of toxic and persistent pesticides and should be treated on site. We evaluated the depuration performance of five pilot biobeds against those effluents. In addition ... -
Integrated Railway Planning in the North West Peloponnese: A Service Ecologies Perspective
(2019)Railway planning in Greece has for many years been oriented towards the technological modernisation of the railway network. The relevant planning agendas have often left the wider socio-spatial interests untouched, delivering ... -
Joint Time-Domain Resource Partitioning, Rate Allocation, and Video Quality Adaptation in Heterogeneous Cellular Networks
(2015)Heterogenous cellular networks (HCN) introduce small cells within the transmission range of a macrocell. For the efficient operation of HCNs it is essential that the high-power macrocell shuts off its transmissions for an ... -
