Abstract

Geometric programming is a powerful optimization technique widely used for solving a variety of nonlinear optimization problems and engineering problems. Conventional geometric programming models assume deterministic and precise parameters. However, the values observed for the parameters in real-world geometric programming problems often are imprecise and vague. We use geometric programming within an uncertainty-based framework proposing a chance-constrained geometric programming model whose coefficients are uncertain variables. We assume the uncertain variables to have normal, linear and zigzag uncertainty distributions and show that the corresponding uncertain chance-constrained geometric programming problems can be transformed into conventional geometric programming problems to calculate the objective values. The efficacy of the procedures and algorithms is demonstrated through numerical examples.
