Path following methods for steady laminar Bingham flow in cylindrical pipes

Juan Carlos De Los Reyes, Sergio González (2008)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

This paper is devoted to the numerical solution of stationary laminar Bingham fluids by path-following methods. By using duality theory, a system that characterizes the solution of the original problem is derived. Since this system is ill-posed, a family of regularized problems is obtained and the convergence of the regularized solutions to the original one is proved. For the update of the regularization parameter, a path-following method is investigated. Based on the differentiability properties...

PDE-constrained optimization of time-dependent 3D electromagnetic induction heating by alternating voltages

Fredi Tröltzsch, Irwin Yousept (2012)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

This paper is concerned with a PDE-constrained optimization problem of induction heating, where the state equations consist of 3D time-dependent heat equations coupled with 3D time-harmonic eddy current equations. The control parameters are given by finite real numbers representing applied alternating voltages which enter the eddy current equations via impressed current. The optimization problem is to find optimal voltages so that, under certain constraints on the voltages and the temperature, a...

Penalties, Lagrange multipliers and Nitsche mortaring

Christian Grossmann (2010)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

Penalty methods, augmented Lagrangian methods and Nitsche mortaring are well known numerical methods among the specialists in the related areas optimization and finite elements, respectively, but common aspects are rarely available. The aim of the present paper is to describe these methods from a unifying optimization perspective and to highlight some common features of them.

Penalty/barrier path-following in linearly constrained optimization

Christian Grossmann (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

In the present paper rather general penalty/barrier path-following methods (e.g. with p-th power penalties, logarithmic barriers, SUMT, exponential penalties) applied to linearly constrained convex optimization problems are studied. In particular, unlike in previous studies [1,11], here simultaneously different types of penalty/barrier embeddings are included. Together with the assumed 2nd order sufficient optimality conditions this required a significant change in proving the local existence of...

Periodic coordination in hierarchical air defence systems

Piotr Arabas, Krzysztof Malinowski (2001)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The subject of this work is the defence planning of a point target against an air attack. The defence system is decomposed into a number of sectors. A direct method of coordination is used at the upper level, while the sectors use a discrete-time event-based model and the description of uncertainty by multiple scenarios of an attack. The resulting problems are solved using linear programming. A comparison of two coordination strategies for realistic attack scenarios and an analysis of effectiveness...

Pickup and delivery problem with split demand and transfers

Jan Pelikán (2013)

Kybernetika

We deal with a logistic problem motivated by a case study from a company dealing with inland transportation of piece goods in regular cycles. The problem consists in transportation of goods among regional centres – hubs of a network. Demands on transportation are contained in a matrix of flows of goods between pairs of hubs. The transport is performed by vehicles covering the shipping demands and the task is to design a cyclical route and to place a depot for each vehicle. The route depot can be...
