Description for Global Optimization in Engineering Design
Hardback. Presents some of the techniques and applications of deterministic approaches to global optimization. The first six chapters of this book deal with applications in the planning of process networks, stochastic scheduling, heat exchanger networks, layout design, truss design, multiproduct batch plants, and water distribution systems. Editor(s): Grossmann, Ignacio E. Series: Nonconvex Optimization and Its Applications. Num Pages: 398 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBW; TBD; UM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 22. Weight in Grams: 735.
Mathematical Programming has been of significant interest and relevance in engineering, an area that is very rich in challenging optimization problems. In particular, many design and operational problems give rise to nonlinear and mixed-integer nonlinear optimization problems whose modeling and solu tion is often nontrivial. Furthermore, with the increased computational power and development of advanced analysis (e. g. , process simulators, finite element packages) and modeling systems (e. g. , GAMS, AMPL, SPEEDUP, ASCEND, gPROMS), the size and complexity of engineering optimization models is rapidly increasing. While the application of efficient local solvers (nonlinear program ming algorithms) has become widespread, ... Read more
