An Optimization Procedure for Quadratic Fractional Transportation Problem (original) (raw)

Asset Analytics, 2019

Abstract

In many real-life applications, people deal with various types of nonlinear programming problems. These nonlinear problems may provide solutions to some decision-making issues like constructing optimization model with fractional objective function such as profit/cost (financial and corporate planning) and inventory/sales (production planning marketing). Hence, fractional programming problems become one of the popular research topics. Fractional transportation problem is to transport various amounts of a single homogeneous commodity that are initially stored at various origins to different destinations in such a way that the total fractional transportation cost is minimized. In this paper, the researchers have provided study on one of the nonlinear programming problems known as quadratic fractional transportation problem. The objective of these problems is to minimize or maximize the ratios of physical and economical functions. As compared with the linear programming problems, the qu...
