3D ultimate limit state analysis using discontinuity layout optimization [PDF]
The recently developed discontinuity layout optimization (DLO) procedure uses limit analysis theory to directly obtain upper bounds on plane strain collapse loads of bodies and has successfully been applied to geotechnical problems.

Design of constrained causal stable IIR filters using a new second- order-cone-programming-based model-reduction technique [PDF]
This brief proposes a new method for designing infinite-impulse response (IIR) filter with peak error and prescribed flatness constraints. It is based on the model reduction of a finite-impulse response function that satisfies the specification by ...

Mathematical programming approaches for two problems in energy systems [PDF]
A wide variety of problems in energy systems can be formulated as mathematical programs. In the first part of this thesis, we focus on the integrated maintenance and operations planning problem in power systems, which is formulated as a mixedinteger ...

The general solution of a mixed integer linear programme over a cone [PDF]
We give a general method of finding the optimal objective, and solution, values of a Mixed Integer Linear Programme over a Cone (MILPC) as a function of the coefficients (objective, matrix and right- hand side).

Shapes and recession cones in mixed-integer convex representability [PDF]
Mixed-integer convex representable (MICP-R) sets are those sets that can be represented exactly through a mixed-integer convex programming formulation. Following up on recent work by Lubin et al. (in: Eisenbrand (ed) Integer Programming and Combinatorial

On the geometric interpretation of the nonnegative rank [PDF]
The nonnegative rank of a nonnegative matrix is the minimum number of nonnegative rank-one factors needed to reconstruct it exactly. The problem of determining this rank and computing the corresponding nonnegative factors is difficult; however it has ...

A smoothed finite element method using second-order cone programming [PDF]
In this paper, a new approach abbreviated as SOCP-SFEM is developed for analysing geomechanical problems in elastoplasticity. The SOCP-SFEM combines a strain smoothing technique with the finite element method (FEM) in second-order cone programming (SOCP)
