Solving MINLP problems by a penalty framework

A penalty framework for globally solving mixed-integer nonlinear programming problems is presented. Both integrality constraints and nonlinear constraints are handled separately by hyperbolic tangent penalty functions. The preliminary numerical experiments show that the proposed penalty approach is...
