Environmental hazards like water and air pollution, extreme weather, or chemical exposures can affect human health in a number of ways, and it is a persistent apprehension in communities surrounded by mining operations. The application of…
Multi-robot motion planning (MRMP) is the problem of finding collision-free paths for a set of robots in a continuous state space. The difficulty of MRMP increases with the number of robots and is exacerbated in environments with narrow…
In this letter, we consider the Multi-Robot Efficient Search Path Planning (MESPP) problem, where a team of robots is deployed in a graph-represented environment to capture a moving target within a given deadline. We prove this problem to…
We present novel mathematical models for inventory management within a reverse logistics system. Technological advancements, sustainability initiatives, and evolving customer behaviours have significantly increased the demand for repaired…
Gas networks are used to transport natural gas, which is an important resource for both residential and industrial customers throughout the world. The gas network design problem is generally modelled as a nonconvex mixed-integer nonlinear…
Space mission planning and spacecraft design are tightly coupled and need to be considered together for optimal performance; however, this integrated optimization problem results in a large-scale Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP)…
The imminent advent of large-scale green hydrogen (H2) production raises the central question of which of the two options, transporting "green" molecules, or transporting "green" electrons, is the most cost-effective one. This paper…
While the increased automation levels of production and operation equipment have led to improved productivity of mining activity in open pit mines, the capacity of mine transport system become a bottleneck. The optimization of mine…
