Prospects for Solving the Muon Puzzle on the NEVOD-DECOR-TREK Complex

Physics of Atomic Nuclei - The muon puzzle is an excess of muon bundles generated by primary cosmic rays (PCR) at energies above 10 $${}^{17}$$ eV compared to estimations that assume even a heavy...     

An interval branch and bound method for global Robust optimization

In this paper, we design a Branch and Bound algorithm based on interval arithmetic to address nonconvex robust optimization problems. This algorithm provides the exact global solution of such difficult problems arising in many real life applications. A code was developed in MatLab and was used to solve some robust nonconvex problems with few variables. This first numerical study shows the interest of this approach providing the global solution of such difficult robust nonconvex optimization problems.
