A robust optimal design problem has been formulated as a three-level min-max- min optimization one by expressing uncertain energy demands by intervals, evaluating the robustness in a performance criterion based on the minimax regret criterion, and considering hierarchical relationships among design variables, uncertain energy demands, and operation variables. Since this problem must be solved by a special algorithm and is too difficult to solve even using a commercial solver, a hierarchical optimization approach has been applied to solve the problem but its application is limited only to small scale toy problems. In this paper, some strategies are introduced into the hierarchical optimization approach to enhance the computation efficiency for the purpose of applying the approach to large scale practical problems. In a case study, the proposed approach is applied to the robust optimal design of a cogeneration system with a complex configuration, and the validity and effectiveness of the method are ascertained.

However, this method takes a long computation time, and thus it can be applied only to small-scale problems. In this paper, a hierarchical optimization method is applied to two types of optimization problems for evaluating robustness to solve them efficiently. In a case study, the proposed method is applied to a cogeneration system with a complex configuration, and the validity and effectiveness of the method are ascertained.

Mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) methods have been applied widely to such optimal design problems. A hierarchical MILP method has been proposed to solve the problems very efficiently. In addition, by utilizing features of the hierarchical MILP method, a method of reducing model by clustering periods based on the optimal operational strategies of equipment has been proposed to search design solution candidates efficiently in the relaxed optimal design problem at the upper level. In this paper, these methods are applied to the multiobjective optimal design of a cogeneration system by considering the annual total cost and primary energy consumption as the objective functions to be minimized. Through a case study, it turns out that the model reduction by the operation-based time-period clustering is effective in terms of the computation efficiency when importance is given to the first objective function, while it is not when importance is given to the second objective function.

Y1 - 2020 SP - 1 EP - 4 ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Carderera, Alejandro A1 - Pokutta, Sebastian T1 - Second-order Conditional Gradient Sliding N2 - Constrained second-order convex optimization algorithms are the method of choice when a high accuracy solution to a problem is needed, due to their local quadratic convergence. These algorithms require the solution of a constrained quadratic subproblem at every iteration. We present the \emph{Second-Order Conditional Gradient Sliding} (SOCGS) algorithm, which uses a projection-free algorithm to solve the constrained quadratic subproblems inexactly. When the feasible region is a polytope the algorithm converges quadratically in primal gap after a finite number of linearly convergent iterations. Once in the quadratic regime the SOCGS algorithm requires O(log(log1/ε)) first-order and Hessian oracle calls and O(log(1/ε)log(log1/ε)) linear minimization oracle calls to achieve an ε-optimal solution. This algorithm is useful when the feasible region can only be accessed efficiently through a linear optimization oracle, and computing first-order information of the function, although possible, is costly.

Evaluation procedures are computer programs of mathematical functions in closed form expression and allow a different treatment of smooth operations or calls to the absolute value function. The well known classical Theorem of Taylor defines polynomial approximations of sufficiently smooth functions and is widely used for the derivation and analysis of numerical integrators for systems of ordinary differential- or differential-algebraic equations, for the construction of solvers for continuous non-linear optimization of finite dimensional objective functions and for root solving of non-linear systems of equations. The long term goal is the stabilization and acceleration of already known methods and the derivation of new methods by incorporating piecewise polynomial Taylor expansions. The herein provided proof of the higher order approximation quality of the new generalized expansions is constructive and allows efficiently designed algorithms for the execution and computation of the piecewise polynomial expansions. As a demonstration towards the ultimate goal we will derive a prototype of a {\$}{\$}k{\$}{\$}k-step method on the basis of polynomial interpolation and the proposed generalized expansions.

Although we focus on the Bundesliga in particular, the integer programming formulations we introduce to answer these questions can easily be adapted to a variety of other league systems and tournaments.
