A variety of novel, recyclable and reusable, construction materials has already been studied within literature during the past years, aiming at improving the overall energy efficiency ranking of the building envelope. However, several studies show that a delicate control of indoor climating elements can lead to a significant performance improvement by exploiting the building’s savings potential via...
Within the current document a model independent, cognitive and adaptive optimization mechanism, namely CAO, is adopted for providing efficient speed/torque control actions. However since real-life tests were not feasible, a simulation model of a 1.4lt displacement gasoline car, playing the role of the actual car, was adopted while the potential maximum cruising speed levels are chosen so as to emulate...
This paper proposes a Cognitive Stochastic Approximation (CSA)-based optimization method for charging an EV (electric vehicle) fleet, using a single, aggregate battery model. The charging station can either utilize the batteries of the parked vehicles to charge the vehicles before they leave, or can use power from the grid. The objective is to optimize the charging task with minimum energy costs,...
