1. On the optimization of opportunistic maintenance activities
Abstract : Maintenance is a source of large costs; in the EU the maintenance costs amountto between 4% and 8% of the total sales turnover. Opportunistic maintenance is anattempt to lower the maintenance cost by considering the failure of onecomponent as an opportunity to replace yet non-failed components in order toprevent future failures.

2. Models and solution methods for large-scale industrial mixed integer programming problems
Abstract : This thesis deals with large-scale industrial problems that can be formulated using mixed integer linear programming (MIP) models. Because of the large problem size, it is not often possible to apply standard solution methods. Therefore special techniques must be used. READ MORE

3. Fault detection and model quality estimation using mixed integer linear programming
Abstract : Robustness is a necessary property of a control system in an industrial environment, due to changes of the process such as changes of material quality, aging of equipment, replacing of instrument, manual operation (e.g. a valve that is opened or closed) etc. READ MORE

4. On Models and Methods for Global Optimization of Structural Topology
Abstract : This thesis consists of an introduction and sevenindependent, but closely related, papers which all deal withproblems in structural optimization. In particular, we considermodels and methods for global optimization of problems intopology design of discrete and continuum structures. READ MORE

5. Applications of Integer Quadratic Programming in Control and Communication
Abstract : The main topic of this thesis is integer quadratic programming with applications to problems arising in the areas of automatic control and communication. One of the most widespread modern control principles is the discrete-time method Model Predictive Control (MPC). READ MORE
