Описание: The increased complexity of the economy in recent years has led to the advancement of energy generation systems. Engineers in this industrial sector have been compelled to seek contemporary methods to keep pace with the rapid development of these systems. Computational intelligence has risen as a capable method that can effectively resolve complex scenarios within the power generation sector. In-depth research on the various applications of this technology is lacking, as engineering professionals need up-to-date information on how to successfully utilize computational intelligence in industrial systems. Multi-Objective Optimization of Industrial Power Generation Systems: Emerging Research and Opportunities provides emerging research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of the application of intelligent optimization techniques within industrial energy systems. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as swarm intelligence, renewable energy, and predictive modeling, this book is ideally designed for industrialists, engineers, industry professionals, researchers, students, and academics seeking current research on computational intelligence frameworks within the power generation sector.

Описание: Microorganisms are ubiquitously present in petroleum reservoirs and the facilities that produce them. Pipelines, vessels, and other equipment used in upstream oil and gas operations provide a vast and predominantly anoxic environment for microorganisms to thrive. The biggest technical challenge resulting from microbial activity in these engineered environments is the impact on materials integrity. Oilfield microorganisms can affect materials integrity profoundly through a multitude of elusive (bio)chemical mechanisms, collectively referred to as microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). MIC is estimated to account for 20 to 30% of all corrosion-related costs in the oil and gas industry. This book is intended as a comprehensive reference for integrity engineers, production chemists, oilfield microbiologists, and scientists working in the field of petroleum microbiology or corrosion. Exhaustively researched by leaders from both industry and academia, this book discusses the latest technological and scientific advances as well as relevant case studies to convey to readers an understanding of MIC and its effective management.
