...Front Matter Energy Systems and Processes: Recent Advances in Design and Control addresses advanced systematic techniques in the design, control, operation, and optimization of complex energy systems. The book discusses recent advances in the study of energy systems and various aspects...

... and then introduce EMPC as well as its theoretical properties. A computationally efficient EMPC formulation will also be introduced to handle the computational complexity of EMPC. Subsequently, the applications of EMPC to several representative energy generation systems including a post-combustion carbon capture...

... testifies to increasingly complex webs of beliefs and skills, and learners gradually acquire epistemologically significant beliefs. Some years after having beliefs, the object of research emerges, and one can talk of epistemic beliefs, beliefs related to the nature of learning...

..., such as physics, engineering, medicine, environmental sciences, and mathematics. As a result, the scientific literature on fluid mechanics is vast and complex, and scholarship on this subject is rapidly expanding. A complete study of fluid mechanics involves many fields with no clear boundaries. Scientists...

... virtual laboratory (VL) hereafter to refer both to a simulated and a virtual laboratory similar to several studies (e.g., Jaakkola et al., 2011; and Evangelou and Kotsis, 2018 ). Exploitation and integration of VLs in physics teaching and learning involves innovative and complex educational...

..., mathematization as blending, and epistemological beliefs concerning mathematization. Mathematization as part of modeling Scientific modeling is a crucial means by which scientists build their theories and knowledge ( Hestenes, 1987 ; and Giere, 1999 ). A scientist's modeling and reasoning can be a very complex...

... is achieved. Since the solar photovoltaic hybrid energy system offers superior advantages over a single source-based energy system, its optimization problem deserves more attention. The optimal design problems of such systems are usually complex and difficult tasks to tackle due to the complexity...

..., and models. (2) Epistemic forms of sensemaking—the sensemaking processes through which the artifacts are created and used. Our focus here is on mathematical sensemaking, analogical reasoning, and mechanistic reasoning of simple and complex phenomena. (3) Epistemic participation—how students...

... as complex enough to require detailed observations for the study. They started from observations of where students began, and from those observations saw students as “haphazard,” lacking in skills and strategies. Their experiment was to impart skills and strategies in the form of explicit, step...

... complexity, several mathematical model types have been focused on specific design stages of the overall photovoltaic systems, in which most of them are multi-objective formulations since several criteria are considered such as environmental impact, social impact, and economic performance. Based...

... ( Islami and Wiltsche, 2020 ). In other words, mathematics is useful because it gives us the rules about how to make conclusions/theorems from a set of axioms, but the latter are chosen by physicists from interactions with the world. Mathematics as embodied cognition One last and more complex view focuses...

... is a complex system in which the fracturing fluid containing proppant is pumped into the reservoir to create and sustain the created fractures to extract oil/gas through them from the reservoir. Over the last two decades, the O&G industry has employed optimization techniques for a variety of purposes...

..., and to develop new knowledge (for the student) through the use laboratory investigations, as does a scientist. In short, the laboratory environment takes the richness and complexity of a profession and tries to capture the essence of that in an educational setting. Even from such a brief overview, it becomes...
