Economic resources, sporting efficiency and uncertainty: a stochastic optimization model of football performance in Africa
Thierno Thioune, Babacar Mbaye Ndiaye
We propose a stochastic optimization framework in which football performance is modeled as the result of an efficiency-driven production process under uncertainty. The model incorp…
Planning electric bus systems with solar photovoltaic integration using open transit data: A case study of the Dakar BRT
Jérémy Dumoulin, Cheikh Mouhamed Fadel Kebe, Babacar M. Ndiaye +3
Electrification of urban bus systems is expected to accelerate due to its clear environmental benefits. However, effective electric bus deployment requires planning tools that can…
A convex numerical scheme for the Evans-Gangbo transport-density system, in one, two, and three dimensions
Babacar Mbaye Ndiaye, Diaraf Seck
We give a constructive numerical treatment of Monge's optimal transport problem in 1D, 2D, 3D, following Evans-Gangbo: the map is built from a Kantorovich potential and density…
Stochastic inflows and seasonal water value at Manantali
Steeven B. Affognon, Babacar M. Ndiaye, Pierre Mendy +4
Seasonal hydropower operation requires release decisions that account for uncertain future inflows and the opportunity cost of stored water. We assess the Modelling and Optimisatio…
InFlow: entropic stochastic dual dynamic programming with HJB cross-certification for seasonal energy storage
Steeven B. Affognona, Babacar M. Ndiaye, Pierre Mendy +1
Seasonal reservoir operation requires optimization methods that remain reliable under strongly periodic and uncertain inflow dynamics. We present InFlow, a verification-oriented fr…
From Daily Fluctuations to Annual Hydrological Cycles: A Wavelet-Based Analysis of Nonstationary Seasonality in Senegal River Hydropower Inflows
Steeven B. Affognon, Babacar M. Ndiaye, Pierre Mendy +1
This study presents a reproducible framework combining Fourier and wavelet analysis to examine the seasonality of daily inflows at three sites on the Senegal River (Bafing Makana,…
