Our paper considers a classic problem in the field of Truss Topology Design, the goal of which is to determine the stiffest truss, under a given load, with a bound on the total volume and discrete requirements in the cross-sectional areas of the bars. To solve this problem we propose a new...

In this paper we examine non-convex quadratic optimization problems over a quadratic constraint under unknown but bounded interval perturbation of problem data in the constraint and develop criteria for characterizing robust (i.e. uncertainty-immunized) global solutions of classes of non-convex...

The Continuous Convex Separable Quadratic Knapsack problem (CQKnP) is an easy but useful model that has very many different applications. Although the problem can be solved quickly, it must typically be solved very many times within approaches to (much) more difficult models; hence an efficient...
