Course abstract
Students will solve independently the standardized problems of modeling and optimization, using models in the form of linear and nonlinear programming.
Learning outcomes and their assessment
• Students will gain extended knowledge of modeling and optimization of wood processing technology,
• as well as obtain skills necessary for practical realization of basic mathematical models of wood processing.
• As a result students will be competent at solving independently the problems of modeling and optimization of wood processing as well as integrating the obtained knowledge in their professional career.
