The minimum cut and maximum flow problems form a well-known pair of dual problems providing a min-max relation. Similarly, the continuous relaxation of the minimum multicut problem is the linear dual ...

Subsequently, a continuous-time mixed integer linear programming (MILP) problem is established to optimize the process, with the objective of minimizing the EEI while accounting for process safety and ...

This study proposes a comprehensive strategy to optimize the operation of real-world gas pipeline networks and support decision-making. The goal is to improve environmental sustainability by ...
