SUMMARY:Solving Supply Chain Equilibrium Problems in Energy and Other Infrastructure Areas using a Difference-of-Convex Functions Algorithm
DESCRIPTION:Rutgers-New Brunswick School of Engineering\nDepartment of Industrial and Systems Engineering\nINDUSTRIAL AND SYSTEMS ENGINEERING SEMINAR SERIES\nFall 2025 \nSolving Supply Chain Equilibrium Problems in Energy and Other Infrastructure Areas using a Difference-of-Convex Functions Algorithm\nDr. Steven A. Gabriel\nProfessor\, Department of Mechanical Engineering\,\nUniversity of Maryland \nWednesday\, October 29\, 2025\, 12:10 to 1:10 PM\nLocation: Hill-room 116 \n\nAbout this talk:\nWe describe a novel application of the difference-of-convex function algorithm (DCA) to a variety of equilibrium problems using the mixed complementarity problem (MCP) format. These problems involve bilinear constraints\, i.e.\, complementarity and can be approximated iteratively via convex subproblems using DCA. We develop the necessary theory to make this possible and showcase how it works on several MCPs in energy and other infrastructure areas such as: the Brazilian natural gas market and water markets. \n\nSpeaker Bio:\nDr. Steven A. Gabriel is a Full Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering as well as the Applied Mathematics\, Statistics\, and Scientific Computing Program at the University of Maryland. Dr. Gabriel’s work focuses on energy systems modeling\, optimization\, and theory and has been applied to many different research projects at leading institutions worldwide\, including the Norwegian University of Science and Technology\, Aalto University in Finland\, the German Berlin Economic Research (DIW Berlin)\, and GERAD in Montreal. He has been involved in numerous international projects and honorary positions including Honorary Fellow (DIW Berlin)\, Trotier Holder Professor (Montréal)\, Jubilee Professor (Norwegian Univ. of Technology)\, and Otto Monsted Professor (Technical Univ. Denmark). Dr. Gabriel earned his Ph.D. in Mathematical Sciences from Johns Hopkins University. \n\nZoom link: https://rutgers.zoom.us/j/96755427971?pwd=c4ewKjyef0bPN4w9zUA8R1hhZP484J.1\nPassword: 123 \nContact: Dr. Robert Mieth (robert.mieth@soe.rutgers.edu) \nWebsite: ise.rutgers.edu

SUMMARY:Marine Pollution: What Everyone Needs to Know
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Judith Weis\, Dept. of Biology\, Rutgers–Newark \nAbstract: The second edition of my book for the general public has come out recently\, with chapters brought up to date and a new chapter on microplastics. There are many different types of pollution that may be found in the ocean and estuaries\, including excessive nutrients\, metals\, oil\, pesticides\, other toxic chemicals\, marine debris\, microplastics\, increasing temperatures (climate change)\, ocean acidification\, and invasive species (biological pollution).  These are all discussed with a viewpoint of Where do they come from? What harm do they do? and what can we do about them?  I will also discuss some optimism about decreased pollution and improving environmental health in areas\, including the NY/NJ area.

SUMMARY:Persistence of Child Undernutrition in West Africa: A Dynamic Panel Data Analysis of Population-Level Trends\, 1999–2022
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: James Oehmke\, Rutgers University \nAbstract: Undernutrition remains a leading cause of child morbidity and mortality globally\, particularly in sub-\nSaharan Africa. While interventions to treat acute undernutrition are often effective at the individual level\, our study provides rigorous empirical evidence that undernutrition functions as a persistent\, chronic condition at the population level in West Africa—persisting for decades even after a modest shock. Using a dynamic panel data model applied to six Feed the Future countries over a 23-year period\, we demonstrate that child undernutrition is statistically self-reinforcing and strongly influenced by environmental and structural factors such as climate-related disasters. Addressing these issues requires a much more comprehensive set of interventions than is currently recommended. \nVirtual option available. Flyer here.
