Stochastic dual dynamic programming applied to nonconvex hydrothermal models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Artículos en revistasIn this paper we apply stochastic dual dynamic programming decomposition to a nonconvex multistage stochastic hydrothermal model where the nonlinear water head effects on production and the nonlinear dependence between the reservoir ...

Data‐driven simulation of crude distillation using Aspen HYSYS and comparative machine learning models

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 8, Page 4079-4100, August 2026.
Integrated Aspen HYSYS–machine learning framework for predicting product yields and quality variables. Abstract Crude oil refining is a complex process requiring precise modelling to optimize yield, quality, and efficiency. This study integrates Aspen HYSYS® simulations with machine learning techniques to develop predictive models for key refinery ...

An Interior-Point algorithm for Nonlinear Minimax Problems [PDF]

open access: yes
We present a primal-dual interior-point method for constrained nonlinear, discrete minimax problems where the objective functions and constraints are not necessarily convex.

Technical Note—Bounding Nonconvex Programs by Conjugates [PDF]

open access: yesOperations Research, 1973
We point out that the Lagrangian dual conjugation in response space provides a stronger bound and requires less computation than conjugate convexification in decision space. A homotopy is then described to lend economic interpretation in the presence of gaps.

Multiobjective Optimisation for Others: How Anchoring Effects Change Based on Who Guides the Interaction

open access: yesJournal of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, Volume 33, Issue 2, August 2026.
ABSTRACT It is common in many real‐world scenarios for decisions to be made on behalf of others. However, Multicriteria Decision Aiding methods often implicitly assume that the person whose preferences operate the methods, known as the decision‐maker, is the source of those preferences.

Gap inequalities for non-convex mixed-integer quadratic programs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Laurent and Poljak introduced a very general class of valid linear inequalities, called gap inequalities, for the max-cut problem. We show that an analogous class of inequalities can be defined for general non-convex mixed-integer quadratic programs ...

A Reentry Trajectory Planning Algorithm via Pseudo-Spectral Convexification and Method of Multipliers

open access: yesMathematics
The reentry trajectory planning problem of hypersonic vehicles is generally a continuous and nonconvex optimization problem, and it constitutes a critical challenge within the field of aerospace engineering.

TDOA-Based Source Collaborative Localization via Semidefinite Relaxation in Sensor Networks

open access: yesInternational Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks, 2015
The time delay of arrival- (TDOA-) based source localization using a wireless sensor network has been considered in this paper. The maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) is formulated by taking the correlated TDOA noise into account, which is caused by the ...
