ALOP Colloquium with Alexander Martin

On Monday, June 26, 2023 at 16:00 c.t. Prof. Dr. Alexander Martin, Fraunhofer IIS; Technische Universität Nürnberg , will speak at the ALOP Colloquium about his recent work:

Mixed Integer Optimization Problems on Networks with PDE Constraints

Abstract:

Motivated by challenging questions in the transformation and control of our energy system we study mixed integer optimization problems on networks with PDE constraints. Control decisions are typically modeled by integer optimization methods, while the physical behavior of water, gas and hydrogen is represented in a continuous nonlinear way, e.g. by partial differential equations (PDEs).

The topic of this talk is to discuss mathematical approaches and insights for the efficient coupling of integer and continuous nonlinear optimization in this context.

We will also demonstrate the numerical success using examples from gas network optimization within the framework of the SFB/TR 154.

Please join us at 16:00 c.t. in HS 10.
