The optimisation of gas networks has emerged as a critical field in energy systems engineering, incorporating advanced nonlinear programming techniques to address the increasing complexity of gas ...

This paper develops a new algorithm for solving the general nonlinear programming problem that melds the flexible simplex search of Nelder and Mead with various additional rules to take care of ...

The weighted maximal planar graph (WMPG) is practically important in the laying out of facilities in modern manufacturing environments. Given a weighted complete graph, the WMPG seeks to find a ...

Mathematical modelling and optimisation in packing problems constitute a critical research area that combines advanced algorithms, rigorous analytical formulations, and practical applications. This ...
