Engineering an efficient two-phase local search algorithm for the co-rotating twin-screw extruder configuration problem

The twin-screw configuration problem arises during polymer extrusion and compounding. It consists in defining the location of a set of pre-defined screw elements along the screw axis in order to optimize different, typically conflicting objectives. In this paper, we present a simple yet effective st...
