Probabilistic Cost Optimisation of Soil Improvement Strategies
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper a short overview is presented on the use of probabilistic calculations in order to increase the insight in the anticipated costs involved in a soil improvement strategy and to provide a useful tool for an economical optimisation.

Need for Optimisation of Immunisation Strategies Targeting Invasive Meningococcal Disease in the Netherlands
Invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) is a severe bacterial infectious disease with high mortality and morbidity rates worldwide. In recent years, industrialised countries have implemented vaccines targeting IMD in their National Immunisation Programmes (NIPs). In 2002, the Netherlands successfully implemented a single dose of meningococcal serogroup C conjugate vaccine at the age of 14 months a...
متن کاملEmergency department resource optimisation for improved performance: a review
Emergency departments (EDs) have been becoming increasingly congested due to the combined impacts of growing demand, access block and increased clinical capability of the EDs. This congestion has known to have adverse impacts on the performance of the healthcare services. Attempts to overcome with this challenge have focussed largely on the demand management and the application of system wide p...
متن کاملA Multi-fidelity Based Adaptive Sampling Optimisation Approach for the Rapid Design of Double-negative Metamaterials
Due to the increasing complexity of metamaterial geometric structures, direct optimisation of these designs using conventional approaches, such as Gradient-based and evolutionary algorithms, are often impractical and limited. This is in part due to the inherently high computational cost associated with running multiple expensive high-fidelity full-wave simulations, commonly required to optimise...
متن کاملReliability Measures Improvement and Sensitivity Analysis of a Coal Handling Unit for Thermal Power Plant
The present paper investigates the reliability and sensitivity analysis of a coal handling unit of a thermal power plant using a probabilistic approach. Coal handling unit is the main block of a thermal power plant and it is necessary for a good function of a power plant that its power supply, which is dealt in coal handling unit, must function continuously without any obstacle. The configurati...
متن کاملProcess optimisation - An effective tool for Cost Reduction
In current scenario of limited demand, lower cost realisation and increasing competition in cement industry, lowering the product cost has become the need of the hour for survival. An effective measure to reduce the production cost is by optimisation of operational practices. Process optimisation is an effective tool for improving the effectiveness of the system and hence, cost reduction in cem...
