Real-Time PDE-Constrained Optimization

Real-Time PDE-Constrained Optimization

Real-Time PDE-Constrained Optimization

July 2007
Paperback
9780898716214
Paperback

    Many engineering and scientific problems in design, control, and parameter estimation can be formulated as optimization problems that are governed by partial differential equations (PDEs). The complexities of the PDEs - and the requirement for rapid solution - pose significant difficulties. A particularly challenging class of PDE-constrained optimization problems is characterized by the need for real-time solution, i.e., in time scales that are sufficiently rapid to support simulation-based decision making. Real-Time PDE-Constrained Optimization, the first book devoted to real-time optimization for systems governed by PDEs, focuses on new formulations, methods, and algorithms needed to facilitate real-time, PDE-constrained optimization. In addition to presenting state-of-the-art algorithms and formulations, the text illustrates these algorithms with a diverse set of applications that includes problems in the areas of aerodynamics, biology, fluid dynamics, medicine, chemical processes, homeland security, and structural dynamics.

    • Answers the pressing need to capitalize on continuing advances in computing power to develop new optimization methods
    • The book is aimed at readers who have expertise in simulation or numerical optimization and are interested in incorporating the two
    • Also suitable for those who have worked in 'offline' optimization contexts and are interested in moving to 'online' optimization
