A second order η -approximation method for constrained optimization problems involving second order invex functions

Tadeusz Antczak (2009)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

A new approach for obtaining the second order sufficient conditions for nonlinear mathematical programming problems which makes use of second order derivative is presented. In the so-called second order η -approximation method, an optimization problem associated with the original nonlinear programming problem is constructed that involves a second order η -approximation of both the objective function and the constraint function constituting the original problem. The equivalence between...

Robust real-time optimization for the linear oil blending

Stefan Janaqi, Jorge Aguilera, Meriam Chèbre (2013)

RAIRO - Operations Research - Recherche Opérationnelle

Similarity:

In this paper we present a robust real-time optimization method for the online linear oil blending process. The blending process consists in determining the optimal mix of components so that the final product satisfies a set of specifications. We examine different sources of uncertainty inherent to the blending process and show how to address this uncertainty applying the Robust Optimization techniques. The polytopal structure of our problem permits a simplified robust approach. Our...

Saddle points criteria via a second order η -approximation approach for nonlinear mathematical programming involving second order invex functions

Tadeusz Antczak (2011)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

In this paper, by using the second order η -approximation method introduced by Antczak [3], new saddle point results are obtained for a nonlinear mathematical programming problem involving second order invex functions with respect to the same function η . Moreover, a second order η -saddle point and a second order η -Lagrange function are defined for the so-called second order η -approximated optimization problem constructed in this method. Then, the equivalence between an optimal solution...
