  1. 11. Mathematical Optimization in Flexible Job Shop Scheduling: Modelling, Analysis, and Case Studies

    Författare :Karin Thörnblad; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Flexible job shop scheduling; Mixed integer linear programming MILP ; Time-indexed formulation; Makespan; Tardiness; Fixture availability; Preventive maintenance; Night shift; Unmanned time window; Dynamic scheduling; Priority rules; Dispatching rules; Critical ratio; Night shift;

    Sammanfattning : The major theme of this thesis is the mathematical optimization modelling of the flexible job shop scheduling problem. This problem is present in the so-called multitask cell—a production cell at GKN Aerospace's facility located in Trollhättan, Sweden—which has served as a case study during the work with this thesis.

  5. 14. Mixed Effects Modeling of Deterministic and Stochastic Dynamical Systems - Methods and Applications in Drug Development

    Författare :Jacob Leander; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; pharmacometrics; pharmacokinetics; mixed effects; drug development; pharmacodynamics; parameter estimation; time-to-event; mathematical modeling; dynamical systems;

    Sammanfattning : Mathematical models based on ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are commonly used for describing the evolution of a system over time. In drug development, pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) models are used to characterize the exposure and effect of drugs. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Robust optimization of radiation therapy accounting for geometric uncertainty

    Författare :Albin Fredriksson; Anders Forsgren; Timothy C. Y. Chan; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Optimization; intensity-modulated proton therapy; uncertainty; robust planning; setup error; range error; intensity-modulated radiation therapy; multicriteria optimization;

    Sammanfattning : Geometric errors may compromise the quality of radiation therapy treatments. Optimization methods that account for errors can reduce their effects.The first paper of this thesis introduces minimax optimization to account for systematic range and setup errors in intensity-modulated proton therapy.
