Abstract: We introduce a mixed integer linear modeling approach for the optimization of dynamic transport networks based on the piecewise linearization of nonlinear constraints and we show how to apply this method by two examples, transient gas and water supply network optimization. We state the mixed integer linear programs for both cases and provide numerical evidence for their suitability. Copyright Springer-Verlag 2011
