An optimal design strategy for spiral-wound membrane networks based on an approximate permeator model and a mixedinteger nonlinear programming (MINLP) solution strategy is proposed. A general permeator system superstructure is used to embed a very large number of possible network con®gurations. The superstructure allows the development of a MINLP design strategy which simultaneously optimizes t...
We propose a method for solving mixed-integer nonlinear programs (MINLPs) to global optimality by discretization of occuring nonlinearities. The main idea is based on using piecewise linear functions to construct mixed-integer linear program (MIP) relaxations of the underlying MINLP. In order to find a global optimum of the given MINLP we develope an iterative algorithm which solves MIP relaxat...
zinc is the first modelling language which supports solver and technique independence. this means that a high level conceptual model can be automatically mapped into an appropriate low level design model for a specific solver or technique. to date, zinc uses three different techniques to solve a model: constraint programming (cp), local search (ls), and mixed integer programming (mip). in this ...
Global optimization of mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problems containing signomial terms is in many cases a difficult task, and many different approaches to solve these problems have been devised. In Westerlund (2005) a method where a relaxed convex relaxation of the original problem is obtained by approximating single-variable transformations with piecewise linear functions (PLFs...
Abstract In this paper, we study multistage stochastic mixed-integer nonlinear programs (MS-MINLP). This general class of problems encompasses, as important special cases, convex optimization with non-Lipschitzian value functions and linear optimization. We develop dual dynamic programming (SDDP) type algorithms nested decomposition, deterministic sampling, sampling. The key ingredient is a new...
Given a short term mining plan, the task for an operational mine planner is to determine how the equipment in the mine should be used each day. That is, how crushers, loaders and trucks should be used to realise the short term plan. It is important to achieve both grade targets (by blending) and maximise the utilisation (i.e., throughput) of the mine. The resulting problem is a non-linear sched...
The paper presents a differential evolution (DE)-based hyper-heuristic algorithm suitable for the optimization of mixed-integer non-linear programming (MINLP) problems. The hyper-heuristic framework includes self-adaptive parameters, an ε-constrained method for handling constraints, and 18 DE variants as low-level heuristics. Using the proposed approach, we solved a set of classical test proble...
The problem of lot sizing, sequencing and scheduling multiple products in flow line production systems has been studied by several authors. Almost all of the researches in this area assumed that setup times and costs are sequence –independent even though sequence dependent setups are common in practice. In this paper we present a new mixed integer non linear program (MINLP) and a heuristic meth...
The design of reverse osmosis (RO) networks is investigated here using a mixed-integer non-linear programming (MINLP) approach based on a superstructure. A flexible superstructure that contains all possible alternatives of a potential RO network was developed and was used in the synthesis of RO networks. The networks were designed by using DuPont’s B10 Hollow Fiber module. For fixed freshwater ...
We develop and discuss an operational planning model aiming at minimizing production and distribution costs in large drinking water networks containing buffers with free inflow. Modeling drinking water networks is very challenging due of the presence of complex hydraulic constraints, such as friction losses and pump curves. Non-linear, non-convex constraints result from the relationships betwee...
