Systems, Decision and Control in Energy I

This book examines the problems in the field of energy and related areas (including chemistry, transport, aerospace, construction, metallurgy and engineering) that Ukrainian scientists are currently investigating. The research presented focuses on ensuring the operational reliability, durability and safety of energy equipment, as well as the development of control, diagnostics and monitoring systems in the energy sector. Further, the book explores the ecological consequences of energy facilities , particularly environmental pollution in large cities and industrial areas. Written mainly by representatives of the Council of Young Scientists of the Department of Physical and Technical Problems of Energy at the NAS of Ukraine, it is intended for researchers and engineers, as well as lecturers and postgraduates at higher education institutions interested in the control, diagnosis and monitoring of energy facilities.
