A general framework for the integration of complex choice models into mixed integer optimization

Meritxell Pacheco Paneque

The objective of this thesis is to develop a general methodology to incorporate a disaggregate demand representation in supply-oriented optimization problems that allows to capture the interplay between the behavior of individuals and the decisions to be o ...

Scalable Stochastic Optimization: Scenario Reduction with Guarantees

Kilian Schindler

Stochastic optimization is a popular modeling paradigm for decision-making under uncertainty and has a wide spectrum of applications in management science, economics and engineering. However, the stochastic optimization models one faces in practice are int ...

A Mixed-Integer Linear Programming Formulation for Optimizing Multi-Scale Material and Energy Integration

François Maréchal, Ivan Daniel Kantor, Hür Ebuzer Bütün

This research presents a mathematical formulation for optimizing integration of complex industrial systems from the level of unit operations to processes, entire plants, and finally to considering industrial symbiosis opportunities between plants. The fram ...

Topology-Finding of Tensegrity Structures Considering Global Stability Condition

Yafeng Wang

This study proposes a general framework for topology-finding or topology optimization of tensegrity structures. The existing topology-finding formulation of tensegrity structures based on mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) was improved and transformed ...

Optimal Design of Heat-Integrated Water Allocation Networks

François Maréchal, Ivan Daniel Kantor, Maziar Kermani

Industrial operations consume energy and water in large quantities without accounting for potential economic and environmental burdens on future generations. Consumption of energy (mainly in the form of high pressure steam) and water (in the form of proces ...

A Lagrangian relaxation technique for the demand-based benefit maximization problem

Michel Bierlaire, Shadi Sharif Azadeh, Virginie Janine Camille Lurkin, Meritxell Pacheco Paneque, Bernard Gendron

The integration of discrete choice models with Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) models provides a better understanding of customers' preferences to operators while planning for their systems. However, the formulations associated with the former are ...
