Abstract: A device includes one or more processors configured to generate simulation data by providing first sets of first values of first input parameters to a simulation of a physical system. The processors are configured to develop at least one surrogate model based on the simulation data, and to select second input parameters from the first input parameters based on the at least one surrogate model. A count of the second input parameters is less than a count of the first input parameters. The processors are configured to generate second simulation data by providing second sets of second values of the second input parameters to the simulation. The processors are configured to develop at least a second surrogate model based on the second simulation data.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for operating a wind farm includes determining a wind direction and identifying a turbine cluster, which is a subset of a plurality of wind turbines of the wind farm. The subset includes an upwind turbine and a downwind turbine that is affected by a wake emanating from the upwind turbine. The controller then determines a difference between a freestream maximal cluster power output and a wake-affected cluster power output for the turbine cluster. The controller determines a mitigation setpoint combination for the subset configured to establish a mitigated cluster power output. Based on the mitigation setpoint combination, an operating state of at least one wind turbine of the turbine cluster is changed.

Abstract: A method and system for generating a set of framing plan solutions for a building construction project uses a combination of code-based, physical, and performance attribute constraints, parameters, and variables and a ranking system that together provide framing plan alternatives selected from a calculated set of all possible framing plans. The framing plan alternatives are selected in a logical manner that considers constraints that are required as well as user selected and weighted constraints. The set of framing plan alternatives are then ranked according to input from the designer and/or customer regarding the relative importance of each of the constraints, parameters, and variables of the building construction project.
