The optimization of a natural gas transportation network (NGTN) is typically a multiobjective optimization problem, involving for instance energy consumption minimization at the compressor stations and gas delivery maximization. However, very few works concerning multiobjective optimization of gas pipelines networks are reported in the literature. Thereby, this book aims at providing a general framework of formulation and resolution of multiobjective optimization problems related to NGTN. Firstly, the NGTN model is described. Then, various multiobjective optimization techniques belonging to...
