In this paper, we present the derivation of the multiparametric disaggregation technique (MDT) by Teles et al. (J. Glob. Optim., <CitationRef CitationID="CR30">2011</CitationRef>) for solving nonconvex bilinear programs. Both upper and lower bounding formulations corresponding to mixed-integer linear programs are derived using disjunctive...</citationref>

Combined heat and power (CHP) plants are widely used in industrial applications. In the aftermath of the recession, many of the associated production processes are under-utilized, which challenges the competitiveness of chemical companies. However, under-utilization can be a chance for tighter...

This paper discusses a power-based transformation technique that is especially useful when solving polynomial optimization problems, frequently occurring in science and engineering. The polynomial nonlinear problem is primarily transformed into a suitable reformulated problem containing new sets...

This work presents an optimisation based approach for the integrated plan and evaluation of Distributed Energy Resources (DER) systems. The mathematical model takes into account site energy loads, local climate data, utility tariff structure, characteristics of the candidate DER technologies...
