Optimization of district heating production with thermal storage using mixed-integer nonlinear programming with a new initialization approach

open access: yesEnergy Informatics, 2021
Non-convex scheduling of energy production allows for more complex models that better describe the physical nature of the energy production system. Solutions to non-convex optimization problems can only be guaranteed to be local optima.

Necessary and sufficient condition on global optimality without convexity and second order differentiability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The main goal of this paper is to give a necessary and sufficient condition of global optimality for unconstrained optimization problems, when the objective function is not necessarily convex. We use Gâteaux differentiability of the objective function

A Novel Mechanical Fault Diagnosis Scheme Based on the Convex 1-D Second-Order Total Variation Denoising Algorithm

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2016
Convex 1-D first-order total variation (TV) denoising is an effective method for eliminating signal noise, which can be defined as convex optimization consisting of a quadratic data fidelity term and a non-convex regularization term.

Convex Optimization-Based Techniques for Trajectory Design and Control of Nonlinear Systems with Polytopic Range

open access: yesAerospace, 2023
This paper presents new techniques for the trajectory design and control of nonlinear dynamical systems. The technique uses a convex polytope to bound the range of the nonlinear function and associates with each vertex an auxiliary linear system ...
