RISOptimal Product Design Under Price Competition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Engineering optimization methods for new product development model consumer demand as a function of product attributes and price in order to identify designs that maximize expected profit. However, ...
Global Optimization of Plug-In Hybrid Vehicle Design and Allocation to Minimize Life Cycle Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We pose a reformulated model for optimal design and allocation of conventional (CV), hybrid electric (HEV), and plug-in hybrid electric (PHEV) vehicles to obtain global solutions that minimize ...
Should Designers Worry About Market Systems?
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We examine how profit-maximizing designs are influenced by two structural aspects of market systems: (1) the structure of manufacturer-retailer interactions and (2) the structure of heterogeneity ...
Optimal Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle Design and Allocation for Minimum Life Cycle Cost, Petroleum Consumption, and Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) technology has the potential to reduce operating cost, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and petroleum consumption in the transportation sector. However, the ...
