Course Objective

The main aim of the course is to introduce students to some of the topics not covered in general operations research courses with the help of applications and projects.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   An ability to derive non-linear programming models for solving the engineering problems
2   An ability to apply multi-objective optimization techniques for solving the industrial engineering problems which have more than one objective
3   An ability to use mathematical programming languages such as LINGO, ILOG OPL studio in the solution phase of the developed non-linear programming models
4   An ability to identify main concepts of non-linear programming and multi-objective optimization
5   An ability to solve design optimization problems via non-linear programming models
