A procedure is presented that synthesizes fractional crystallization separation processes to obtain pure solids from multi-component solutions. The method includes a procedure to generate a network flow model to identify alternative process designs for fractional crystallization. The main advantage of this systematic procedure with respect to other reported procedures is using non-equilibri...

There are many cases that a nonlinear fractional programming, generated as a result of studying fractional stochastic programming, must be solved. Sometimes an approximate solution may be sufficient enough to start a new process of calculations. To this end, this author introduces a new linear approximation technique for solving a fractional chance constrained programming (CCP) problem. After i...

In this paper, we establish a proof for  a  necessary condition for  multiple objective fractional programming. In order to derive the set of necessary conditions, we employ an equivalent parametric problem. Also, we  present the related semi parametric model.

This paper presents a fuzzy goal programming (GP) procedure for solving a multiobjective linear plus linear fractional programming problem. In the proposed approach GP model for achievement of the highest membership value of each of fuzzy goal defined for the linear plus linear fractional objectives is formulated. In the solution process, the method of variable change on the underand overdeviat...
