Applying Optimal Control to Jetty Scheduling Problems. In proceedings of the 3rd Multidisciplinary International Conference on Scheduling : Theory and Applications (MISTA 2007), 28 -31 August 2007, Paris, France, pages 167-174, 2007.
Paper
Crude oil and derivatives jetty scheduling problems are modeled by Optimal Control with nonlinear state equations and the use of flow rates as control variables. This paper shows that the Optimal Control formulation is able to represent scheduling problems with continuous variables only. All variables are submitted to lower and upper bounds. Difficulties in the numerical solution of these models are overcome by using an efficient Nonlinear Programming method. Test cases are discussed
