  • Publication number: 20160364666
    Abstract: A method of dynamically adjusting an industrial system outage plan is disclosed. Data items pertaining to changes to past plans associated with past outages of a plurality of industrial systems are received along with optional inputs from physics based model(s) of the system, such as a fuel model. The data items include measurements of impacts of changes to the past plans. Work rules pertaining to a work force are received. The work force is responsible for implementing an additional plan corresponding to an additional outage of an additional industrial system. The work rules include fatigue thresholds for workers in the work force. Based on a determination that a probability that one or more fatigue thresholds will be exceeded, a recommendation for a change to the additional plan is generated. The recommendation is based on the measurements of the impacts of the changes to the past plans.

  • Publication number: 20160365162
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, and a method for generating optimal power plant decommissioning plans based on stakeholder constraints. In example embodiments, the method may include receiving one or more constraints for determining a power plant decommissioning plan. The method further includes accessing decommissioning strategy data representing a plurality of possible decommissioning plans, and generating a decommissioning plan in accordance with the constraints based on the decommissioning strategy data. The method may further include causing presentation of a user interface on a client device that includes a graphical representation of the power plant decommissioning plan.
