Abstract: A dynamic method to solve the general Nonlinear Programming (NLP) problem, inspired by the Lyapunov continuous-time dynamics stability theory in the control field, is proposed. The optimal ...

Abstract: This paper presents a method to optimal design of parameters for digital controllers using a nonlinear programming technique. Firstly, the performance index and constraint functions in terms ...

Aim to minimize the combined fixed and transportation costs by deciding which of five plants to keep open or what have to close.

Electrodialysis (ED) presents a competitive method for desalinating brackish waters. Herein we perform cost optimization of a single-stack ED system across a range of feed salinities and water ...

Add a description, image, and links to the nonlinear-programming topic page so that developers can more easily learn about it.

ABSTRACT: Quadratic Programming (QP) is a mathematical modeling technique designed to optimize the usage of limited resources and has been widely applied to solve real world problems. In conventional ...

ABSTRACT: In this paper, three new hybrid nonlinear conjugate gradient methods are presented, which produce suf?cient descent search direction at every iteration. This property is independent of any ...
