Motivated by a real-world application at a large international pharmaceutical company, we tackle an integrated location-inventory-transportation problem unde...

Effective waste rock management is a crucial aspect of long-term planning of industrial mining complexes. When waste management is not considered during the ...

In mining complexes or mineral value chains, materials flow from extraction sites (mines) through crushers, stockpiles, waste dump and tailings, and processi...

On February 4, 2025, the 5th edition of GERAD's Student Day took place, under the theme of energy transition. The aim of this event was to give students the ...

The water pump scheduling problem is an optimisation model that determines which water pumps will be turned on or off at each time period over a given time h...

Mean Field Game equilibria are based on the assumption of instantaneous interactions within a population of interchangeable agents, where each agent's impact...

Blending problems occur when different components are mixed to form an end product. The recipe typically has some flexibility as long as specific quality con...

A three-region optimal economic growth model is proposed to represent the global energy transition to net-zero emissions when carbon dioxide removal (CDR) te...
