The paper describes studies on long-term energy development using the 10-region World Energy Model. Several scenarios of external conditions for energy development are considered. Special attention is paid to the influence of constraints on COSUB align=rightSMALL2/small/sub emissions and...

A mathematical model has been developed to describe an autonomous energy system including energy plants (technologies) of two types: energy conversion (transport) and energy (energy carriers) storage. At the conversion plants, primary and secondary energy is converted into final energy and...

Mathematical models based on the concepts of classical equilibrium thermodynamics are discussed. The models are intended for comprehensive thermodynamic analysis of various industrial and natural processes. Unlike traditional models, these allow one to view an attainable region of partial...

An approach to the solution of decision problems that is based on the computation and analysis of the pay-off matrix is presented. Special Wald, Laplace etc. criteria, as well as subjective probability estimations are applied. The technique is illustrated with an example drawn from designing...
