General algorithm and sensitivity analysis for variational inequalities

open access: yesInternational Journal of Stochastic Analysis, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 29-41, 1992., 1991
The fixed point technique is used to prove the existence of a solution for a class of variational inequalities related to odd order boundary value problems, and to suggest a general algorithm. We also study the sensitivity analysis for these variational inequalities and complementarity problems using the projection technique.

On nonlinear variational inequalities

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 399-402, 1991., 1990
The fixed point technique is used to prove the existence of a solution for a class of nonlinear variational inequalities related with odd order constrained boundary value problems and to suggest an iterative algorithm to compute the approximate solution.

A new branch and bound algorithm for minimax ratios problems

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2017
This study presents an efficient branch and bound algorithm for globally solving the minimax fractional programming problem (MFP). By introducing an auxiliary variable, an equivalent problem is firstly constructed and the convex relaxation programming ...

Optimality conditions for pessimistic semivectorial bilevel programming problems

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper, a class of pessimistic semivectorial bilevel programming problems is investigated. By using the scalarization method, we transform the pessimistic semivectorial bilevel programming problem into a scalar objective optimization problem with ...

Multifacility location problems on a sphere

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 10, Issue 3, Page 583-595, 1987., 1987
A unified approach to multisource location problems on a sphere is presented. Euclidean, squared Euclidean and the great circle distances are considered. An algorithm is formulated and its convergence properties are investigated.

Sufficient pruning conditions for MINLP in gas network design

open access: yesEURO Journal on Computational Optimization, 2017
One-quarter of Europe’s energy demand is provided by natural gas distributed through a vast pipeline network covering the whole of Europe. At a cost of 1 million Euros per kilometer the extension of the European pipeline network is already a multi ...

A nonlinear preconditioner for optimum experimental design problems

open access: yesEURO Journal on Computational Optimization, 2015
We show how to efficiently compute A-optimal experimental designs, which are formulated in terms of the minimization of the trace of the covariance matrix of the underlying regression process, using quasi-Newton sequential quadratic programming methods ...
