  1. 1. Models and solution methods for large-scale industrial mixed integer programming problems

    Author : David Bredström; Mikael Rönnqvist; Dag Wedelin; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematic; linear programming MIP ; production-planning; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK;

    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

  2. 2. Haulage system optimization for underground mines : A discrete event simulation and mixed integer programming approach

    Author : Abubakary Salama; Jazek Paraszczak; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mining and Rock Engineering; Gruv- och berganläggningsteknik;

    Abstract : In coming decades, many underground mines will operate at greater depths, which will affect many operational factors such as increased rock stress, longer haulage distances, and higher energy consumption, which potentially can generate lower production rates. The increased rock stresses may lead to smaller sized openings, further restricting the size of loading and hauling equipment that can be used. READ MORE

  3. 3. Lignocellulosic Ethanol Production Potential and Regional Transportation Fuel Demand

    Author : Lilia Daianova; Jinyue Yan; Louise Trygg; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : Agricultural by-products; Straw; Bioethanol; Transport system; Greenhouse gases GHG ; Polygeneration system; Combined Heat and Power CHP ; Mixed Integer Programming MIP .; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : Road traffic dominates in domestic Swedish transportation and is highly dependent on fossil fuels, petrol and diesel. Currently, the use of renewable fuels in transportation accounts for less than 6% of the total energy use in transport. READ MORE

  4. 4. Optimization using discrete event simulation and mixed integer programming: application on haulage systems for deep underground mines

    Author : Abubakary Salama; Sunniva Haugen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mining and Rock Engineering; Gruv- och berganläggningsteknik;

    Abstract : The application of discrete event simulation for the optimization of the haulage methods of underground operations at great depth is presented. The discrete event simulation was carried out to evaluate four haulage methods for the improvement of the overall mine production and a minimizing of the operating costs. READ MORE

  5. 5. Supply chain optimization in the forest industry

    Author : Helene Gunnarsson Lidestam; Mikael Rönnqvist; Jan Lundgren; Eldon Gunn; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Supply chain; logistics; forestry; optimization; modelling; transportation; mixed integer programming models; försörjningskedjor; logistik; optimering; modellering; transportplanering; blandade heltalsproblem; skogsindustrin; Optimization; systems theory; Optimeringslära; systemteori;

    Abstract : The scope of this thesis is modelling and solving large-scale planning problems in the supply chain within the forest industry. Five research papers are included, the first three of which focus on the modelling, and the last two on the solution methods. READ MORE
