Fonseca, R.M. (author), Leeuwenburgh, O. (author), Rossa, E.D. (author), van den Hof, P.M.J. (author), Jansen, J.D. (author)We consider robust ensemble-based (EnOpt) multi-objective production optimization of on-off inflow control devices (ICDs) for a sector model inspired on a real-field case. The use of on-off valves as optimization variables leads to a discrete control problem. We propose a re-parameterization of such discrete controls in terms of switching times,...conference paper 2015

Willems, F.P.T. (author), Kupper, F. (author), Rascanu, G. (author), Feru, E. (author)Rankine-cycleWasteHeatRecovery (WHR)systems are promising solutions to reduce fuel consumption for trucks. Due to coupling between engine andWHR system, control of these complex systems is challenging. This study presents an integrated energy and emission management strategy for an Euro-VI Diesel engine withWHRsystem. This Integrated Powertrain...conference paper 2015

Feru, E. (author), de Jager, B. (author), Willems, F. (author), Steinbuch, M. (author)This paper presents the modeling and model validation for a modular two-phase heat exchanger that recovers energy in heavy-duty diesel engines. The model is developed for temperature and vapor quality prediction and for control design of the waste heat recovery system. In the studied waste heat recovery system, energy is recovered from both the...article 2014

Leeuwenburgh, O. (author), Egberts, P. (author), Chitu, A. (author), Wilschut, F. (author)Life-cycle optimization is the process of finding field operation strategies that aim to optimize recovery or economic value with a long-term (years to decades) horizon. A reservoir simulation model is therefore generally appropriate and sufficient to explore the impact of different recovery scenarios. A number of challenges arise when trying to...conference paper 2014

Fischer, H.R. (author), Dillingh, E.C. (author)The occurrence of discrete cracking of bitumen and asphalt is difficult to observe/analyse mainly because of the viscous nature of the bitumen binder. Many techniques simply do not have the required resolution or analysis techniques do not get a good response from the highly dissipative bitumen. In this study, an attempt is made to visualise...article 2014
