Operations Research for Energy Systems Analysts Linear Algebra Discussion – Description
OVERVIEW: As the title suggests, this course is a operations research (OR) topics course geared towards solving problems in energy systems. This course focuses on mathematical programing via optimization. Optimization is one of the primary tools used in OR. In addition, this course will also cover related topics that blend statistics and simulation — the two other pillars of OR. Primary topics covered are:
Mathematical optimization techniques – linear, integer, and multi-objective programming.
Optimization modeling tools – Excel Solver
Model and results analysis – sensitivity and post-optimality analysis.
Optimization applications – military and private sector optimization applications with a focus on energy systems (electric power and fuel).
Related OR methods and applications – time series forecasting (regression models), simulation and uncertainty.
