Discrete bilevel programming: Application to a natural gas cash-out problem
In this paper, we present a mathematical framework for the problem of minimizing the cash-out penalties of a natural gas shipper. The problem is modeled as a mixedinteger bilevel programming problem having one Boolean variable in the lower level problem. Such problems are difficult to solve. To obtain a more tractable problem we move the Boolean variable from the lower to the upper level proble...
متن کاملThe Optimal Allocation of Iran's Natural Gas
T he optimal allocation of natural gas resources to various uses such as final and intermediate consumption, injection into oil fields, and exports can help policymakers to use this kind of resources efficiently. Empirical evidence support using hyperbolic discount rates instead of fixed discount rates in the economic literature. The purpose of this study is to maximize the social we...
متن کاملSimulated Annealing Approach for Solving Bilevel Programming Problem
Bilevel programming, a tool for modeling decentralized decision problems, consists of the objective of the leader at its first level and that of the follower at the second level. Bilevel programming has been proved to be an Np-hard problem. Numerous algorithms have been developed for solving bilevel programming problems. These algorithms lack the required efficiency for solving a real problem. ...

متن کاملThe Exact Solution of Min-Time Optimal Control Problem in Constrained LTI Systems: A State Transition Matrix Approach
In this paper, the min-time optimal control problem is mainly investigated in the linear time invariant (LTI) continuous-time control system with a constrained input. A high order dynamical LTI system is firstly considered for this purpose. Then the Pontryagin principle and some necessary optimality conditions have been simultaneously used to solve the optimal control problem. These optimality ...
