On the Evaluation of Common Design Metrics for the Optimization of Non-Axisymmetric Endwall Contours for a 1-stage Turbine Rotor by Bergh, Jonathan

“…Numerical testing showed that, in order to distinguish accurately between the various endwall configurations, relatively fine computational meshes were required and therefore, as a result of corresponding computational expense associated with these meshes, the implementation of a surrogate modelling procedure in which part of this computational cost is offset by mathematical modelling, was necessary. …”

The agro-economic development of the lowland region of Lesotho by Helman, Chaim

“…The methodology used went through the following steps: a) A representative "village model" based on studies of lowland conditions was formulated. b) The alternative ways of intensifying crop production in the lowlands were studied. c) Linear programming was used in comparing the alternative ways by planning the "village model" with the objective of profit maximization. d) The planning results were analysed and conclusions were drawn. e) Organization patterns which are required for their implementation were recommended.…”
