Energy-efficient Timetables for Railway Traffic: Incorporating DC Power Models

Efficient operation of underground railway systems is critical not only for maintaining punctual service but also for minimizing energy consumption, a key factor in reducing operational costs and environmental impact. To evaluate the energy consumption of the timetables, this paper delves into the development of mathematical models to accurately represent energy dynamics within the underground … Read more

Strong Dual for Conic Mixed-Integer Programs

Mixed-integer conic programming is a generalization of mixed-integer linear programming. In this paper, we present an extension of the duality theory for mixed-integer linear programming to the case of mixed-integer conic programming. In particular, we construct a subadditive dual for mixed-integer conic programming problems. Under a simple condition on the primal problem, we are able … Read more
