Control of systems integrating logic, dynamics, and constraints
Alberto Bemporad,Manfred Morari +1 more
TL;DR: A predictive control scheme is proposed which is able to stabilize MLD systems on desired reference trajectories while fulfilling operating constraints, and possibly take into account previous qualitative knowledge in the form of heuristic rules.

Canonical Cuts on the Unit Hypercube
Egon Balas,Robert G. Jeroslow +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define a distance function on the set V of vertices of K and use it to construct a class of hyperplanes parallel to the faces of K (canonical hyperplanes), and establish some properties of these hyperplanes and of the associated canonical inequalities (cuts).

A modelling and decomposition strategy for the MINLP optimization of process flowsheets
TL;DR: It is shown that in structural flowsheet optimization problems that are formulated as mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problems, modelling can have a great impact in the quality of solutions that are obtained, as well as on the computational efficiency.
