On the interplay of Mixed Integer Linear, Mixed Integer Nonlinear and Constraint Programming [PDF]

, 2016
In this thesis we study selected topics in the field of Mixed Integer Programming (MIP), in particular Mixed Integer Linear and Nonlinear Programming (MI(N)LP). We set a focus on the influences of Constraint Programming (CP). First, we analyze Mathematical Programming approaches to water network optimization, a set of challenging optimization ...

Mixed-integer nonlinear programming 2018 [PDF]

Optimization and Engineering, 2019
Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) is the area of optimization that addresses nonlinear problems with continuous and integer variables. MINLP has proven to be a powerful tool for modeling. At the same time, it combines algorithmic design challenges from combinatorial and nonlinear optimization.

An Outer-Inner Approximation for Separable Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programs [PDF]

INFORMS Journal on Computing, 2014
A common structure in convex mixed-integer nonlinear programs (MINLPs) is separable nonlinear functions. In the presence of such structures, we propose three improvements to the outer approximation algorithms. The first improvement is a simple extended formulation, the second is a refined outer approximation, and the third is a heuristic inner ...

Helix Alignment, Chevrons, and Edge Dislocations in Twist‐Bend Ferroelectric Nematics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The recently discovered twist‐bend ferroelectric nematic (NTBF) is the new member of the multiferroic family, representing a fluid with an oblique helicoidal (heliconical) periodic structure of spontaneous electric polarization. The work presents a thorough exploration of the material properties of this phase, how the periodic modulation of ...

Restoration model for unbalanced distribution networks considering renewable sources uncertainties

Energy Reports, 2023
Extreme events cause blackouts, resulting in the distribution network being unable to obtain power from the upstream transmission system. In this situation, local distributed resources can be fully utilized to improve system resilience.

Photonic‐Enabled Energy‐Efficient Transparent Neuromorphic Computing Devices: A Review

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Transparent photonic neuromorphic computing devices merge optics and brain‐inspired computing to overcome von Neumann bottlenecks with ultrafast, low‐energy processing. By exploiting transparent oxides, 2D materials, phase‐change materials, and hybrid heterostructures, these platforms enable photonic synapses, memory, and logic for see‐through edge ...

Symmetry‐Imposed Selection Rules for Excitations of Nontrivial Plasmonic Topologies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A unified group‐theory selection rule governs the excitation of vectorial nearfield topologies across three plasmonic spin states. Derived from first principles, it predicts spin–orbit vortex splitting and multidimensional nested vortices, confirmed by phase‐resolved in situ measurements.

Orientation‐Engineered Insulator‐Metal Transition in Vanadium Dioxide

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Crystallographic orientation engineering in VO2/TiO2 heterostructures enables tunable insulator‐metal transitions. The high‐Miller‐index (102) orientation breaks in‐plane mirror symmetry, inducing anisotropic transport, while its inclined oxygen channels accelerate protonation kinetics.
