November 12, 2020

Ørsted, the global leader in offshore wind power production and ranked the most sustainable company in the world, has chosen Flowty’s Network Optimization Solver ...

# Why Flowty

Get running fast with intuitive modelling of constrained network problems.

Enjoy specialized algorithms to leverage network structures fully.

# What We Do

Solve network optimization problems like

\begin{aligned} \min{ } & \sum_{k \in K} \sum_{e \in E^k} c_e x_e + \sum_{i \in N} f_i y_i \\ \text{s.t. } & \sum_{k \in K} \sum_{e \in E^k} \alpha_{je} x_e + \sum_{i \in N} \beta_{ji} y_i = b & & j \in M \\ & x_e = \sum_{p \in P^k} \Big ( \sum_{ s \in p: s = e} \mathbf{1} \Big ) \lambda_p & & k \in K, e \in E^k \\ & L^k \leq \sum_{p \in P^k} \lambda_p \leq U^k && k \in K \\ & \lambda_p \in \mathbb{Z}^+ && k \in K, p \in P^k \\ & x_e \in \mathbb{Z}, y_i \in \mathbb{Z} && e \in E, i \in N \end{aligned}

for graphs $G(V^k, E^k),\; k \in K$ with paths $p \in P^k$ subject to resource constraints $R^k$.

# How To

Install it

pip install flowty

and solve a time-constrained fixed-charge multi-commodity flow problem

from flowty import Model, xsum

# ... data setup

m = Model()

# create graphs per commodity
g = [
m.addGraph(obj=obj, edges=edges, source=o[k], sink=d[k], L=D[k], U=D[k], type="C")
for k in range(K)
]

# add time constraints to graphs
for k in range(K):

# demand constraints
for k in range(K):
m.addConstr(xsum(x for x in g[k].vars if x.source == g[k].source) == D[k])

# design variables
y = [
for e, edge in enumerate(edges)
]

# capacity constraints
for e, edge in enumerate(edges):
xsum(x for k in range(K) for x in g[k].vars if x.edge == edge) <= u[e] * y[e]
)

status = m.optimize()

Flowty was founded by Simon Spoorendonk, PhD, with the aim to bring easy-to-use network optimization with excellent performance to the masses.

Professor Stefan Røpke, DTU Management, advices Flowty on scientific matters.
