1. 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

2. Haulage system optimization for underground mines : A discrete event simulation and mixed integer programming approach
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. Lignocellulosic Ethanol Production Potential and Regional Transportation Fuel Demand
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. Optimization using discrete event simulation and mixed integer programming: application on haulage systems for deep underground mines
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
