“…Lifecycle based optimization has been a subject of several researches [13]- [16] and the need for development of such methodologies is rising. The proposed methodology by the authors of the given paper consists of building an optimization procedure based on different simulation tools of the motordrive and on knowledge of the energetic contents of the materials used in the drive as well as the knowledge of the impact of different materials on the environment and use these procedures for a motor-drive of approximately 10-40 kW power [12].…”

This paper describes the design process of a permanent magnet assisted synchronous reluctance machine. The designed machine is meant to be optimized and designed in the viewpoint of lifecycle based optimization methodology proposed by the authors. Suitability of permanent magnet assisted synchronous machines for the use in various applications is explained. Proposed optimization methodology is described. Finite element method based calculations and preliminary results of the design process are presented and analyzed. Necessity of new methodologies is pointed out.

A smart city is a sustainable and efficient urban centre that provides a high quality of life to its inhabitants through optimal management of its resources. Energy management is one of the most demanding issues within such urban centres owing to the complexity of the energy systems and their vital role. Therefore, significant attention and effort need to be dedicated to this problem. Modelling and simulation are the major tools commonly used to assess the technological and policy impacts of smart solutions, as well as to plan the best ways of shifting from current cities to smarter ones. This paper reviews energy-related work on planning and operation models within the smart city by classifying their scope into five main intervention areas: generation, storage, infrastructure, facilities, and transport. More-complex urban energy models integrating more than one intervention area are also reviewed, outlining their advantages and limitations, existing trends and challenges, and some relevant applications. Lastly, a methodology for developing an improved energy model in the smart-city context is proposed, along with some additional final recommendations.

Calvillo Muñoz Chapter 7 Complete smart city energy model: aggregated DER and transport systems with active market participation Chapter 8 Conclusions, contributions and future work Chapter 1 Energy Management of Smart Cities 9 Christian F. Calvillo Muñoz 2 2 LITERATURE REVIEW This chapter presents the identification of energy systems task, corresponding to the smart city energy model methodology described in section 1.3. This includes the evaluation of energy systems available in a smart city, assessing their importance and possible synergies, in addition to the review of the existing models and tools, to select which ones could be used. The first part of the chapter introduces an overview of energy related work on planning and operation models within the smart city by classifying their scope into five main intervention areas. These areas are generation, storage, infrastructure, facilities, and transport. Then, more complex urban energy models integrating more than one intervention area are reviewed, outlining their advantages and limitations, existing trends and challenges, as well as some relevant smart cities applications. With this revision, important elements and possible synergies in the smart city are identified, and a framework for developing a comprehensive smart city energy model is proposed, along with some additional recommendations. Therefore, the main contributions of this chapter are, first, a comprehensive literature review of smart city energy systems and related modelling tools, classifying them in five intervention areas, and second, a framework with guidelines and recommendations for developing a comprehensive smart city energy model.
