Optimization of ASP flooding based on dynamic scale IDP with mixed-integer

Optimal control of polymer flooding based on mixed-integer iterative dynamic programming

Global optimization of mixed-integer polynomial programming problems: A new method based on Grobner Bases theory

Mixed-integer polynomial programming (MIPP) problems are one class of mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problems where objective function and constraints are restricted to the polynomial functions. Although the MINLP problem is NP-hard, in special cases such as MIPP problems, an efficient algorithm can be extended to solve it. In this research, we propose an algorit...

Sensitivity Analysis of Water Flooding Optimization by Dynamic Optimization

This study concerns the scope to improve water flooding in heterogeneous reservoirs. We used an existing, in-house developed, optimization program consisting of a reservoir simulator in combination with an adjoint-based optimal control algorithm. In particular we aimed to examine the scope for optimization in a two-dimensional horizontal reservoir containing a single high permeable streak, ...

Global Solution of Mixed-Integer Dynamic Optimization Problems

This paper presents a decomposition approach for a quite general class of mixed-integer dynamic optimization problems that is capable of guaranteeing a global solution despite the nonconvexities inherent to the dynamic optimization subproblems. A case study is presented in connection to the optimal design and operation of a batch process consisting of a series reaction followed by a separation ...

Mixed-Integer Constrained Optimization Based on Memetic Algorithm

Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are population-based global search methods. They have been successfully applied to many complex optimization problems. However, EAs are frequently incapable of finding a convergence solution in default of local search mechanisms. Memetic Algorithms (MAs) are hybrid EAs that combine genetic operators with local search methods. With global exploration and local explo...
