This article advocates a nonsmooth differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) modeling
paradigm for dynamic simulation and optimization of process operations. A variety of …

New environmental policies motivate the efficient production of biofuels. Despite their
potential, biofuels based on microbial biomass cultivation are not cost effective yet due to the …

A recent nonsmooth vector forward mode of algorithmic differentiation (AD) computes
Nesterov's L-derivatives for nonsmooth composite functions; these L-derivatives provide …

This paper extends classical sensitivity results for nonlinear programs to cases in which
parametric perturbations cause changes in the active set. This is accomplished using …

We present here a characterization of the Clarke subdifferential of the optimal value function
of a linear program as a function of matrix coefficients. We generalize the result of Freund …

This article proposes new practical methods for furnishing generalized derivative information
of optimal-value functions with embedded parameterized convex programs, with potential …

This paper focuses on dynamic sensitivities of nonsmooth power control systems. Recent
advances in nonsmooth sensitivity theory are applicable to large-scale practical problems …

A variety of engineering problems involve dynamic simulation and optimization, but exhibit a
mixture of continuous and discrete behavior. Such hybrid continuous/discrete behavior can …

Generalized differentiation index-one nonlinear complementarity systems (NCSs) are
mathematically regularized in this article. Strong regularity of solutions is shown to imply …
