A hierarchy of policies for adaptive optimization
In this paper, we propose a new tractable framework for dealing with linear dynamical systems affected by uncertainty, applicable to multi-stage robust optimization and stochastic programming. We introduce a hierarchy of near-optimal polynomial disturbance-feedback control policies, and show how these can be computed by solving a single semidefinite programming problem. The approach yields a hi...
متن کاملDesign of Near Optimal Decision Rules in Multistage Adaptive Mixed-Integer Optimization
In recent years, decision rules have been established as the preferred solution method for addressing computationally demanding, multistage adaptive optimization problems. Despite their success, existing decision rules (a) are typically constrained by their a priori design and (b) do not incorporate in their modeling adaptive binary decisions. To address these problems, we first derive the stru...
متن کاملA MULTISTAGE EXPANSION PLANNING METHOD FOR OPTIMAL SUBSTATION PLACEMENT
Optimal distribution substation placement is one of the major components of optimal distribution system planning projects. In this paper optimal substation placement problem is solved using Imperialist Competitive Algorithm (ICA) as a new developed heuristic optimization algorithm. This procedure gives the optimal size, site and installation time of medium voltage substation, using their relate...
متن کاملTrajectory Optimization for a Multistage Launch Vehicle Using Nonlinear Programming
This work is an example of application of nonlinear programming to a problem of three-dimensional trajectory optimization for multistage launch vehicles for geostationary orbit missions. The main objective is to minimize fuel consumption or equivalently to maximize the payload. The launch vehicle considered here, Europa-II, consists of 5 thrust phases and 2 coast phases. Major parameters of the...
متن کاملNear-Optimal Echelon-Stock (R, nQ) Policies in Multistage Serial Systems
We study echelon-stock (R, nQ) policies in a multistage, serial inventory system with compound Poisson demand. We provide a simple method for determining near-optimal control parameters. This is achieved in two steps. First, we establish lower and upper bounds on the cost function by overand under-charging a penalty cost to each upstream stage for holding inadequate stock. Second, we minimize t...
