✦ Synopsis


An organism's optimal feeding rate is governed by constraints imposed by processes associated with consumption. In this paper a generic representation of feeding rates is derived based upon process constraints, and mechanistic representations of the module processes are illustrated for a filter feeder, Daphnia magna, and a pursuit feeder, rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). The generic feeding rate models are presented in a spectrum of forms as dictated by process constraints and are convenient for application to a wide range of macroheterotrophic organisms.

This paper considers the problem of optimizing a continuous nonlinear objective function subject to linear constraints via a piecewise-linear approximation. A systematic approach is proposed, which uses a lattice piecewise-linear model to approximate the nonlinear objective function on a simplicial
